Quantamental Report Formats
When presenting results, ALWAYS use the matching template below. Do not free-form these outputs.
Template 1: Validation Report
Use after running validate_outputs.py:
═══ VALIDATION REPORT ═══════════════════════
Date: YYYY-MM-DD
Scope: N commodities
PASS gold, silver, crude, corn, ...
FAIL commodity_a (2 errors), commodity_b (1 error)
SKIP power models (excluded)
─── Failures ─────────────────────────────────
commodity_a:
✗ trading_metrics.json missing 'sharpe_net'
✗ live_signal.json probability=1.5 outside [0,1]
commodity_b:
✗ bt_production CSV missing column: lots
─── Summary ──────────────────────────────────
Passed: NN/NN | Failed: N | Errors: N
══════════════════════════════════════════════
Template 2: Model Comparison
Use when comparing current vs new model (Phase 5 results):
═══ MODEL COMPARISON: <commodity> ════════════
Current: production/<commodity>_production_std.py
Candidate: research/<commodity>_vN.py

│─────────────────────────│─────────│─────────│─────────│
│ Min Sharpe (folds) │ X.XX │ X.XX │ +X.XX │
│ Mean Sharpe (folds) │ X.XX │ X.XX │ +X.XX │
│ Fold Std Dev │ X.XX │ X.XX │ -X.XX │
│ Max Drawdown │ -XX.X% │ -XX.X% │ +X.X% │
│ Calmar Ratio │ X.XX │ X.XX │ +X.XX │
│ Pseudo-OOS Sharpe │ X.XX │ X.XX │ +X.XX │
│ Feature Count │ N │ N │ ±N │
Features changed: +N added, -M removed
Added: feature_a, feature_b

Template 4: Quick Signal Summary
Use when the user asks "what are the current signals?" or similar:
═══ LIVE SIGNALS ═════════════════════════════
As of: YYYY-MM-DD

Rules
- Always include the date/timestamp
- Numbers: 2 decimal places for Sharpe/ratios, 1 for percentages, 0 for counts
- Use ✓/✗ for pass/fail, not emoji
- Delta column shows change direction (+/-)
- Sort commodities alphabetically within groups
- Power models are always SKIP/excluded — never report on them
