Ten features ordinary journals cannot offer.

The authority hierarchy prevents contradictory information from producing arbitrary decisions: drawdown authority outranks Daily EV, gate caps outrank setup confidence, throttle authorization outranks the desire to recover, volatility context cannot override risk limits, structural diagnostics cannot cancel System Lock, and experimental results cannot automatically change production rules. Gate-aware drawdown governance protects capital from a rolling Equity Peak High — every new account high becomes the reference point, so accumulated gains are defended, not just the original deposit. Smart open-exposure adjustment recognizes what single-trade calculators miss: open risk consumes capacity, reduced stops release some of it, break-even stops may release most, floating profit is not realized evidence, and new risk must fit inside the remaining authorized pool.
