Release Notes

• Removed short trades. Shorts showed a 50.8% win rate but consistently increased max drawdown and risk, despite boosting headline returns.
  
• Converted the system to long-only. Backtests on the full 5-year dataset remain valid, with stable performance and reduced drawdowns compared to the mixed long/short version.
