Models are now a Composite of drift, volatility and (optional) shape components, so an experiment can swap one part against a fixed control. btcmodel/experiments.py holds seven experiments built from the ideas in the old branches (catalogued in docs/2024-ideas.md), each with its hypothesis and source, and a verdict rule fixed before anything ran. `just ab` runs them on development data. Results: - Shrinking the cycle drift, and a power-law trend (plain or reverting), beat their controls. The power law beats the random walk by 53-63% at 3-4 years with unbiased outcomes, so it is promoted to MODELS. - Every alternative volatility estimate (EWMA blends, other windows, reversion to a level or trend) is worse than the trailing 365-day window. Cycle-dependent volatility, heavy tails and stretched cycle phase show no reliable effect.
