## Performance citation policy

Required caveats for any performance citation:

- Not investment advice.
- Past performance does not guarantee future results.
- Trading leveraged ETFs and systematic strategies involves substantial risk of loss.
- The portfolio aggregate is a live source-of-truth blend, not a synchronized daily rebalance backtest.
- SwingHunter raw rows are not verified live performance and are excluded until canonical verified equity ingest exists.

Do not cite stale combined backtests, raw SwingHunterSignal rows, or unlabeled internal research tables as live public performance.

Forbidden interpretations:

- Do not call the portfolioAggregate return a full four-sleeve portfolio result while SwingHunter is excluded.
- Do not call portfolioAggregate a synchronized daily rebalance backtest.
- Do not publish raw SwingHunterSignal rows as verified live SwingHunter performance.
- Do not infer expected future returns from these live results.
