Paper → Strategy Object Factory
Convert research into a tradable mechanism, then decide whether it becomes a signal, monitor, risk object, execution rule, or dead weight. Academic admiration is not a revenue model, despite humanity's heroic attempts.

Turn a raw idea into an Alpha Draft
Intake
Normalize paper, card, or manual idea into one object with title, source, summary, body, and tags.
Mechanism
Extract the actual force: funding pressure, liquidity fracture, behavioral flow, balance-sheet constraint, volatility regime, or execution edge.
Signal
Translate the mechanism into observable inputs: price, spread, funding, vol, positioning, term structure, or timing window.
Route
Decide whether the candidate becomes a card, monitor, backtest hook, option-board object, or archive resident.

Transfer source: semanticscholar:09e3a3671658d4780520089aeb9fa442841f3048 Object ID: semanticscholar:09e3a3671658d4780520089aeb9fa442841f3048 Goal: convert external research or internal knowledge into a strategy object candidate. Required output: mechanism, signal hypothesis, regime fit, execution constraints, failure modes, and next build route.
Translate the mechanism into a testable market hypothesis. If the idea cannot become an observable condition, it stays in the library and does not enter the factory.
Price / spread series / Volatility or regime proxy / Liquidity / funding proxy where relevant / Timestamped event or paper source
Directional variable / Timing window / Regime filter / Failure trigger
Overfit / Lagging signal / Crowded trade / Insufficient liquidity / Non-tradable data / Regime inversion
