"""SEA02 — Day-of-week effect on 1d bars. HYPOTHESIS: Some weekdays have systematically positive (or negative) next-bar returns. We use an EXPANDING per-weekday expectancy (causal): at each bar i, we compute the average return for bars that share the same day-of-week, using only data up to and including bar i. If the expanding mean is positive -> long (+1). We vol-target the position (TP01-style) to 20% annualized. Variations tried (small grid, <=4 configs, <=6 total backtests): A) raw day-of-week: long if expanding mean > 0, else flat (no short) B) long-short: long if expanding mean > 0, short if < 0 (full L/S) Both run on 1d only (the only sensible TF for a day-of-week effect). Two configs -> 2 study_weights calls x 2 assets each = 4 backtests total. Well within the 6-call limit.
