Desk Discipline instruments
The family that instruments the operational envelope of a live book: distance to the rules that end accounts, the behaviour of current positions under replayed historical shocks, and whether the execution path itself leaks time and money.
How we measureHow the Desk Discipline suite measuresWhat this family is for
The Prop-Evaluee Risk Guardian measures against the actual rules of a funded-account evaluation — live halt distance to every account-ending rule in units of adverse movement at current sizing, correlation-adjusted effective exposure across the book, risk-of-ruin surfaces recomputed as the account moves with their assumptions visible, and sizing grids precomputed under the evaluation’s own rules.
The Stress Harness replays recorded historical shocks against today’s positions with gap-through and vacuum-fill honesty — no assumed fills through empty books — and raises a ruin flag where a scenario ends the account. The Latency Arb Tracker measures whether fills are systematically worse than quotes by more than noise can explain, as a signed distribution with adverse-selection signatures and rejection clustering, and it will not name a culprit: measured disadvantage has innocent explanations, and they are enumerated beside every finding.
Accounts are ended by arithmetic and structure at least as often as by bad ideas. This family has no opinion about anyone’s entries. It polices the boundary between a strategy and the rules its owner agreed to.
