This book does not teach trading strategies, indicators, or optimization techniques.

Part I is a diagnostic framework designed to identify foundational category errors in time-based trading and decision systems.

It examines why many systems fail not due to poor parameters or insufficient data, but because they model time-sampled observations instead of market structure.

The book provides a rigorous audit checklist covering price ontology, time assumptions, state definitions, error accumulation, regime blindness, and structural lag.

This is not a solution book.

It is an audit.

If your system fails unexpectedly, overfits, or collapses during regime changes, this book helps you identify where your thinking is structurally wrong before any redesign is attempted.
