The run used the 1.16 source with an audit-only export hook. Release 1.17 retains the technical execution functions. The final customer input cleanup hides legacy/debug controls, disables research logging and adds direct optional Trading Economics API access and data-status display. Optional data features remain off. This is not a separate backtest of the final customer build.

Interpretation

The result is positive, with three losing months. Profit factor 1.29 leaves a limited margin for worse execution costs. This sample supports continued forward observation; it does not establish live profitability or validate the optional data filters.
