Posiciones persistentes con entradas por puntuación móvil y salidas por señal
Resumen
Este documento presenta un método basado en eventos para mantener un número limitado de posiciones intradía. Las predicciones se alinean con las barras de precios usando la puntuación disponible más reciente, con un límite de antigüedad opcional. Las señales de entrada usan un cuantil móvil calculado por separado para cada activo, lo que aborda las diferencias entre distribuciones de puntuaciones. Los nuevos candidatos que cumplen los criterios se ordenan por puntuación y se admiten hasta alcanzar el límite de posiciones; cada posición abierta recibe un peso fijo.
Las posiciones pueden cerrarse al alcanzar un periodo máximo de mantenimiento, cuando la puntuación cae por debajo de un umbral de permanencia por activo o al tocarse un nivel opcional de toma de beneficios o stop-loss. El simulador registra los precios de entrada y asigna una prioridad definida a las salidas; después genera ponderaciones para los activos que siguen en cartera. El texto informa de un resultado en entorno de pruebas: las salidas por señal y las salidas por toma de beneficios ayudaron por separado fuera de muestra, pero combinarlas no; por ello, se indica probarlas como variantes distintas. Ese resultado se limita al caso práctico citado y el fragmento no proporciona cifras detalladas de rendimiento. El método opera solo en largo o solo en corto, y depende de predicciones y precios correctamente alineados para las reglas de salida pertinentes.
Ideas clave
- La alineación as-of hacia atrás asigna a cada barra de precios la predicción disponible más reciente, dentro de un límite de antigüedad opcional.
- Los cuantiles móviles por activo determinan las señales de entrada y pueden proporcionar umbrales inferiores de permanencia para las salidas por señal.
- Un límite de posiciones controla cuántas pueden mantenerse a la vez; los candidatos se eligen por puntuación descendente y reciben ponderaciones fijas.
- Las posiciones pueden cerrarse por tiempo máximo de mantenimiento, umbral de puntuación, toma de beneficios o stop-loss.
- El entorno de pruebas citado informa de beneficios con salidas por señal o toma de beneficios por separado, pero no al combinar ambas.

"""Persistent-slot signal-exit strategy for intraday execution.
The slot mechanism is the operationally-defensible variant of the canonical
``eq_w_topk`` selection used in chapters 11-19. It is designed for
microstructure case studies (nasdaq100) where:
- predictions arrive at one cadence (e.g. 1-min) but execution rebalances
on a coarser cadence (e.g. 15-min)
- per-symbol score distributions are heterogeneous (a 0.6 score for AAPL
is not equivalent to a 0.6 score for AMZN), so entry uses a per-symbol
rolling quantile rather than cross-sectional rank
- the chapter narrative needs a *signal-based exit* — close positions
when the score crosses back below a stay-threshold — which neither
``eq_w_topk`` nor ``risk_controls.position`` (Ch19) expresses
Mechanism:
1. Align predictions to price-grid timestamps via backward asof (freshest
prediction within ``pred_freshness_max_min``).
2. Compute per-symbol rolling entry threshold at quantile ``long_q``
(delegates to ``signals.per_symbol_rolling_percentile_signal``).
3. Optionally compute per-symbol rolling stay threshold at quantile
``exit_signal_q`` < ``long_q``.
4. Walk bars in time order maintaining ``open_slots: dict[sym -> entry_bar]``.
At each bar:
(a) close slots whose age >= ``hold_bars`` (max-hold backstop)
(b) close slots whose current score < stay_threshold (signal-exit)
(c) close slots hitting ``take_profit`` / ``stop_loss`` vs entry price
(d) open new slots from the top ``max_slots - len(open_slots)`` entries
sorted by score descending
(e) emit ``weight_per_slot`` for every currently-held (ts, sym)
Take-profit and stop-loss are per-slot exit legs evaluated against each
slot's entry price. They are an intrinsic property of the slot mechanism's
event-driven holding period (entry -> exit on the FIRST trigger), distinct
from Ch19 ``risk_controls.position`` overlays which act on a continuously
rebalanced weight series. The sandbox finding (nasdaq100 v4) is that
signal-exit OR take-profit each help out-of-sample but stacking them does
not, so callers sweep them as mutually exclusive exit variants.
The output schema ``[timestamp, symbol, weight]`` is what
``backtest_runner._run_engine`` consumes as ``weights``.

Pipeline:
1. Align ``predictions`` to ``prices`` grid via backward-asof.
2. Compute per-symbol rolling entry threshold at ``long_q``; entry signal
where y_score > threshold.
3. If ``exit_signal_q`` is set (< ``long_q``), compute per-symbol rolling
stay threshold at that quantile.
4. Run slot simulation with ``max_slots`` capacity and ``hold_bars`` cap,
plus optional ``take_profit`` / ``stop_loss`` per-slot exit legs
(evaluated on the bar-close return vs the slot's entry price).
5. Apply ``direction`` sign — ``short_only`` flips the weight sign.
``take_profit`` / ``stop_loss`` are decimals (0.005 = 0.5%). They free the
slot on trigger so the weight series stops emitting the symbol until a fresh
entry signal — the slot-native re-entry semantics that engine-level
``risk_controls.position`` rules cannot express against a dense target
series. The nasdaq100 v4 sandbox finding is that signal-exit OR take-profit
each help out-of-sample but stacking them does not, so callers pass at most
one of ``exit_signal_q`` / ``take_profit`` per configuration.
Returns ``(weights_df, stats_dict)``. ``weights_df`` has schema
``[timestamp, symbol, weight]`` matching ``_run_engine`` input.
Note: long_short is not supported — slot books are inherently
single-direction (a symbol cannot occupy a long and short slot
simultaneously). The cross-asset long-short story belongs to
``eq_w_topk`` / ``quintile_long_short``.
