"""VOL03 — DVOL-gated TSMOM HYPOTHESIS: TP01-style multi-horizon TSMOM (vol-targeted, long-flat) but ONLY active when DVOL is BELOW its expanding median. When DVOL is elevated (above median), go flat. Rationale: in calm regimes (low DVOL), trend tends to persist; in high-vol regimes, momentum can reverse or get choppy. Gating on DVOL below median may improve risk-adjusted returns. NOTE: DVOL history starts 2021-03, so full backtest (2019+) will have NaN DVOL for early bars. We handle this by defaulting to ACTIVE (no gate) when DVOL is NaN, so pre-2021 bars are the same as vanilla TSMOM. This avoids burning early history on a look-ahead free gate. Internal grid (4 configs, total 2 TFs x 2 configs = 4 backtests within study_weights per TF): - VOL03-A: multi-horizon (1,3,6 month) TSMOM + DVOL < expanding median - VOL03-B: multi-horizon (1,3,6 month) TSMOM + DVOL < expanding 40th pctile (stricter gate) We test on 1d and 12h -> 2 TFs x 2 configs = 4 study_weights calls total (each covers BTC+ETH). Pick best config by min_asset_holdout_sharpe.
