Admitted 2026-09-21 by owner override — the replay did NOT clear the bar (n=956, PF 0.95, dd 31%, net -388): admitted on the owner's instruction of 2026-09-21: a live audition on the test account regardless of the replay; the retirement rules decide. Every other rule applies: it retires at 40 closed live trades below PF 1.0 or after 120 days, and the live record decides. These two books are confounded: sid_method_pattern's entries are a subset of sid_method's, both trade the same test account, and one owner per symbol means a contested name goes to whichever book signals first — so the difference between their live records is not a measurement of the pattern step. Both also decide on a forming 15:50 bar rather than the official close, so the replay above approximates the live record rather than predicting it.
