Synapolis Trading Hypotheses Ledger v1[edit | edit source]

Created: 2026-05-22T11:29:17Z. Status: active non-execution ledger. This page records trading hypotheses as durable Synapolis knowledge. It does not authorize live trading, order placement/cancel/amend, fund movement, Stellar actions, executor changes, or secret exposure.

Canonical Local Artifacts[edit | edit source]

  • Machine ledger: state/finance/synapolis-trading-hypotheses-ledger-v1.json
  • Finance report: finance/reports/synapolis-trading-hypotheses-ledger-v1.md
  • User-readable report: output_to_user/synapolis-trading-hypotheses-ledger-v1.md
  • Wiki source: output_to_user/synapolis-trading-hypotheses-ledger-v1.wiki

Schema[edit | edit source]

Each hypothesis entry must include:

  • hypothesis_id
  • date
  • proposer_source
  • statement
  • rationale
  • risk_bounds
  • execution_non_execution_status

Operating Rules[edit | edit source]

  • Hypothesis recording is not live approval.
  • Append new hypotheses; do not overwrite prior entries.
  • Append evidence/readbacks to updates.
  • Any trading hypothesis without an explicit profit mechanism and falsification criteria is incomplete/non-actionable, even if its inventory posture is clear.
  • Live candidates require separate explicit user approval, exact risk bounds, reviewed execution path, and post-action readback.
  • Do not include secrets, raw credentials, private keys, or unredacted sensitive order material.
  • Stopped attempts remain part of the ledger as evidence.

Corrected Hypotheses[edit | edit source]

hyp-20260522-btc-derisk-001[edit | edit source]

Status: superseded_as_primary_hypothesis_retained_as_safety_cap_framing.

Correction: this is not the core trading hypothesis. It is retained only as an audit trail of a provisional canary/safety-cap framing. The user's correction supersedes the idea that the strategy is simply "sell BTC below 20%".

Original statement: reduce Bybit BTC exposure below the hard no-go threshold of 20% equity using a bounded one-shot BTCUSDC limit sell under explicit caps, without launching the liquidity engine or reactivating the legacy executor.

Risk bounds:

  • Symbol: BTCUSDC spot.
  • Side: sell BTC for USDC.
  • Target exposure: <= 20% equity.
  • Preferred exposure: <= 15% equity.
  • No liquidity-engine launch.
  • No legacy executor.
  • No fund movement.
  • No Stellar action.
  • No broad strategy parameter changes.
  • No execution without exact max quantity/notional, order type, slippage/limit bound, expiry, and kill-switch policy.

Evidence:

  • Roadmap Wiki: Дорожная карта запуска торговой ликвидности Synapolis 2026, revid 712.
  • Stop receipt: output_to_user/synapolis-trading-roadmap-derisk-execution-stop-2026-05-22.md.

  • Kill-switch receipt: output_to_user/synapolis-trading-roadmap-kill-switch-readiness-2026-05-22.md.

Required before execution:

  • exact max BTC quantity and/or USDC notional;
  • order type and limit/slippage bound;
  • open-order cancel/amend permission and exact scope, if any;
  • start/expiry UTC;
  • partial-fill policy;
  • kill-switch policy;
  • reviewed one-shot de-risk executor path;
  • post-action readback requirement.

Correction notes:

  • 20% should be treated as a possible canary execution cap or monitor policy threshold, not as the main allocation target.
  • Current BTC exposure around 44.46% may be near a rough 50/50 target and is not automatically wrong under the corrected hypothesis.
  • Existing monitor policy may need recalibration to distinguish allocation target from execution risk caps.

hyp-20260522-btc-usdc-balanced-liquidity-001[edit | edit source]

Statement: maintain approximately balanced BTC and dollar liquidity, roughly 50/50 BTC versus USDC or dollar-equivalent inventory, as an inventory posture. The economic hypothesis is valid only if realized volatility / rebalance spread / grid edge from bounded liquidity migration exceeds fees, slippage, adverse selection, inventory beta, and drawdown costs over the evaluation window.

Rationale: 50/50 is not itself a profit source. It is an inventory posture intended to keep both BTC and dollar liquidity available so the system can repeatedly migrate liquidity between sides when price movement creates spread opportunity. The hypothesis must be evaluated by net realized edge after all costs, not by allocation appearance alone.

Profit mechanism:

  • Capture realized volatility through bounded BTCUSDC rebalancing/grid cycles.
  • Sell BTC into upward moves and buy BTC into downward moves while maintaining two-sided inventory.
  • Profit must exceed exchange fees, slippage, adverse selection, inventory beta drag, drawdown costs, and operational costs.
  • Holding 50/50 inventory alone is not a profit mechanism.

Market assumptions:

  • BTCUSDC has enough two-sided realized volatility inside the chosen band.
  • Spread/liquidity supports limit execution without excessive adverse selection.
  • Price oscillates enough to complete cycles rather than trend one-way through inventory.
  • Fees remain low enough relative to chosen step size.
  • Read-only state and accounting are fresh enough to distinguish spread capture from BTC beta.

Fees/slippage edge condition:

  • Required: net_realized_rebalance_spread_after_fees_slippage_and_adverse_selection > 0.
  • Drawdown must stay inside approved limits.
  • Preferred: fee plus slippage to gross spread below 0.50 for canary research and trending toward below 0.25 for scalable operation.
  • Current warning: monitor fee/gain 1.026 remains no-go until recalibrated against corrected strategy metrics.

Current interpretation:

  • Current BTC exposure around 44.46% may be close to a provisional 50/50 allocation target.
  • The existing BYBIT_BTC_EXPOSURE_LIMIT critical alert may be policy-misaligned for this hypothesis.
  • Allocation target and execution risk caps must be separated.

Provisional research bands:

  • Balanced zone: 40-60% BTC value of equity.
  • Review zone: 30-40% or 60-70%.
  • Hard no-go: to be recalibrated; prior 20% may apply only to a specific canary execution cap, not to the strategy allocation target.

Required before execution:

  • define target allocation precisely: BTC market value vs USDC/dollar-equivalent liquidity;
  • approve tolerance bands around 50/50;
  • approve execution risk caps distinct from allocation target;
  • produce fee-aware rebalancing model;
  • define bounded order sizing, slippage/limit rules, and open-order handling;
  • define kill switch and daily readback;
  • obtain explicit live approval before any order/cancel/amend.

Validation metrics:

  • gross rebalance spread;
  • fees in USDC equivalent;
  • slippage estimate;
  • adverse selection estimate;
  • net rebalance edge;
  • fee/slippage to gross spread ratio;
  • completed rebalance cycles;
  • inventory beta PnL;
  • max drawdown;
  • time in target band;
  • stale state / missed cycle count;
  • accounting reconciliation status.

Falsification criteria:

  • Net realized rebalance/grid edge is <= 0 after fees/slippage across the agreed window.
  • Fee plus slippage burden repeatedly consumes gross spread.
  • PnL is mainly BTC directional beta rather than rebalance spread.
  • Drawdown exceeds approved cap before sufficient realized edge appears.
  • Inventory cannot remain within tolerance bands without oversized corrective trades.
  • Accounting cannot reproducibly attribute spread, fees, beta, and transfers.

Expected Synapolis liquidity contribution / accounting route:

  • Recognize only net realized rebalance/grid edge after fees and documented costs as candidate liquidity contribution.
  • Keep inventory beta and unexplained deltas separate.
  • Required evidence: fill/fee ledger, inventory time series, baseline equity snapshots, order lifecycle/readback receipts, fee/slippage estimate, and attribution note.

Status: primary_hypothesis_complete_economic_formulation_non_execution_research_needed.

Research update 2026-05-22T13:04:43Z:

  • Research status: research_only_not_validated.
  • Current BTC exposure: 44.50%, inside provisional 40-60% balanced inventory zone.
  • Current ladder step: 579.5250 USDC / 0.7489%, too small for fee-aware edge.
  • Candidate paper-only step zone: 1300-1400 USDC, about 1.68-1.81% at current read-only price.
  • Candidate 5-level paper bands: 70881.5-83881.5 for 1300 step, 70381.5-84381.5 for 1400 step.
  • Monitor recommendation: split allocation-target status from execution-risk status; prior 20% cap may be a canary execution cap, not the 50/50 allocation threshold.

  • Dependency status: historical_backtest_dependency_resolved_for_research_readback_only.
  • Window: 2026-05-13T12:10:02Z to 2026-05-27T18:25:02Z, 4108 rows.
  • Source history: state/bybit/bybit-grid-v3-market-baseline-history.json.

Interpretation:

  • Variant C won this observed bearish window, but this is not universal proof.
  • Variants B and D lost because they accumulated BTC early from low exposure while the market kept falling.
  • Variant C should be treated as a bearish one-way overlay / research assumption, not as approved live policy.
  • Approval is still not granted; this update resolves one research dependency only.

Adverse whipsaw 5y 0 -20.1591% -71.6342% -34.1693%

Interpretation:

  • Variant C is downside protection in this bearish sample, not a yield engine.
  • In a whipsaw/rebound scenario, C can be the worst of the tested overlays.
  • Neutral zero-edge scenarios do not create return; all variants read back as 0 before costs/edge assumptions.
  • This projection does not grant live approval and does not change order, fund, Stellar, or secret boundaries.

Stellar / cross-venue / path-arb[edit | edit source]

Update: 2026-05-28 Stellar opportunity surface scan[edit | edit source]

Status: research_candidates_only_no_proven_profitable_hypothesis_no_live_authorization.

Read-only scan result:

  • Historical path-arb operation 269558297890177025 was positive at +0.2688189 XLM net after actual fee, proving temporary edge existed historically.
  • Existing and fresh paper scans of that same fixed cycle are negative in the current public-Horizon state.
  • Fresh direct-only replay of XLM -> USDC -> EURMTL -> MTL -> XLM now breaks because Horizon returns a non-direct path on USDC -> EURMTL; the best recomposed path also remains negative.
  • No currently proven profitable Stellar trading hypothesis was established by this scan.

Research candidates promoted for next paper work:

  • issuer-basis / trustline spread research across same-code assets with different issuers;
  • generalized path / cross-venue mispricing scan beyond one fixed direct cycle;
  • MTL/XLM pool-versus-orderbook monitoring.

Rejected or deprioritized for now:

  • direct replay of the historical fixed cycle;
  • standalone XLM -> USDC -> XLM;
  • direct USDC -> MTL;
  • LP/yield as the immediate next test;
  • treasury/cash-management as a profit hypothesis.

Data gaps:

  • time-series snapshots for MTL/XLM and EURMTL/MTL;
  • trade-history vs stale-quote evidence;
  • issuer admissibility / trustline map;
  • depth ladder across sizes.

How Other Agents Should Append[edit | edit source]

Other Synapolis agents should read state/finance/synapolis-trading-hypotheses-ledger-v1.json, append a new object to hypotheses[] for new ideas, or append an item to an existing hypothesis updates[] list for new evidence/readbacks. Agents must cite stable local paths, Wiki revision IDs, or read-only monitor timestamps. They must not treat a hypothesis entry as authorization to trade. Any hypothesis without explicit profit mechanism and falsification criteria is incomplete/non-actionable.

Update: 2026-05-27 Bybit BTCUSDC live pilot approval draft[edit | edit source]

hyp-20260527-btcusdc-live-pilot-approval-draft-001[edit | edit source]

Statement: prepare one bounded BTCUSDC spot de-risk pilot draft for possible future manual approval while keeping execution disabled until explicit user approval and separate readiness closure.

Status: draft_not_approved. This entry is a draft record only and does not authorize live trading.

Pilot bounds:

  • Mode: one_shot_bounded_derisk_pilot.
  • Side / type / TIF: Sell / Limit / IOC.
  • Max qty: 0.004000 BTC; max notional: 300.00 USDC.
  • Min sell price: 75000.0; max state age: 15 minutes; max spread: 5 bps.
  • Daily loss cap / max loss cap: 15.00 / 15.00 USDC.
  • Execution gates: approval_required=true, execution_disabled_until_user_approval=true.

Blocking readback:

  • Observed best bid 74627.5 is below min_sell_price 75000.0; the draft currently fails its own price guard even if later approved.
  • Historical balancing validation is still pending; related backtest/readiness dependency: task 4f724e1c (Bybit BTCUSDC balancing hypothesis backtest).
  • Balanced-liquidity readiness remains unvalidated, so this draft must not be interpreted as bot enablement or live authorization.
