3. The market warning

Dance A Jig — 15:14 Salisbury NR-ADJUSTED
2/1 → 11/2 · -17.95pp
NR-adjusted signal: raw Open→Now -17.95pp minus measured signed NR effect +0.00pp = -17.95pp. Genuine movement before and after the withdrawal is retained.

Measured NR event: 07:55: 11/4 → 11/4 (+0.00pp removed).

Largest drift recorded across 6 previous 10am market snapshots.

Historical percentile: 100th.

A drift is not automatically a lay. The point is whether today's weakness resembles the markets in which this horse has previously failed — or whether it has historically ignored market weakness.
