// THE VERDICT
Scoring
Every completed run gets a total score and a breakdown across four pillars. The total tells you how you did. The pillars tell you why, and where to look next.
A strong run usually means the system stayed near peg, reserves were used well, every side of the market stayed healthy, and the controller behaved cleanly. Weakness in any one pillar shows up as a story you can read and fix.
The Four Pillars
Peg Health · 35%
Price stability and recovery. Rewards keeping market and redemption price close, and recovering cleanly after a shock.
Control Quality · 35%
How cleanly the controller behaved. Smooth, disciplined control beats noisy overreaction.
Participant Balance · 20%
Whether the run stayed healthy for every side of the market, rather than fixing one side by stressing another.
Liquidity Strategy · 10%
How well your reserves supported the run: adequacy, efficient use, avoiding exhaustion, and smooth utilization.
How to Read the Breakdown
The trap is reading only the headline number. Two runs with the same total can be completely different.
Read the pillars as a diagnosis:
- Low Peg Health means the gap was open too often, or recovery was slow. Look at your controller response and whether you had enough reserves.
- Low Control Quality means the controller thrashed. Calm the gains or tighten the bounds.
- Low Participant Balance means you solved one pressure by creating another. Aim for a healthier whole system, not a single fixed number.
- Low Liquidity Strategy means your reserves were off. Either too thin to support the run or far more than it needed.
Score, Then Adjust
After a run, pick the weakest pillar, make one change aimed at it, and run again. Chasing the total directly tends to spin you in circles. Chasing the weakest pillar moves you forward.
Across many runs, your average pillar shape is a fingerprint of how you play. Your profile charts it, so you can see whether you lean stable, efficient, or aggressive and decide if that is who you want to be at the desk.
