A living record of what changes in the framework after publication, as practice puts the rules to work. Entries are grouped by the part of the book they touch, newest first within each part.
I am, after all, only human.
A clarification settles wording that could be read more than one way. How you trade does not change; the entry says which reading the book intends.
Example: the soft-stop carve-out on XSP (Chapter 18, Section 4)
A refinement states a rule more strictly than the book did, or adds a condition practice has shown it needs. Read each one before your next session; your notes, checklist, or journal may need the same change.
Example: the fresh-print gate after a cross (Chapter 8)

The gamma flip is an estimate, usually stable to within a strike or two, not a price known to the tick. The framework anchors to one value, the operative zero-crossing nearest spot in the CSV, and asks price to prove its side with closes, not touches.
The framework’s levels are built on traded volume for today’s expiration, not on open interest, so they will often differ from an open-interest dashboard, sometimes widely. The two measure different things. Do not mix sources inside a session.
A fresh print is one whose data state is after the cross. With the data 15 minutes delayed, that print comes no earlier than 15 minutes after the cross; a print downloaded 5 minutes after the break still describes the old map. Until it arrives, no entry relies on a level.
A mid-session update replaces the whole script with one paste; nothing in the indicator’s settings panel is touched. If values were changed by hand in the settings panel, TradingView may hold them over the pasted ones. Resetting the indicator’s settings to their defaults once puts the paste back in charge.
The $0.25 carve-out at the 2:30 PM soft stop is sized for SPX. XSP is a tenth the size, so its carve-out is $0.02: $0.025, rounded down to the stricter penny tick.
A breach of the 6R drawdown limit restarts the count. The sessions, the trades, the expectancy, and the drawdown high all count again from the first session after the breach; the paper rows through the breach stay in the journal as TYPE Set Aside.
This page is maintained alongside the framework and updated as practice clarifies or tightens a rule.
