+## Session 2026-08-28 — Event-driven PIT backtest (verified + pushed)
+
+**Branch:** `main` · **HEAD:** `d73a58b` (+cycle-2 fix pending) · **Pushed:** yes (tasks 1–7)
+
+### Goal implemented
+Replace the calendar-rebalance backtest with a strict point-in-time, event-driven
+engine per the user's description. Confirmed decisions:
+1. **Strict PIT** — block when factor / Siamchart / price coverage is incomplete (no fallback).
+2. **Execution** — freeze signal at release date D, execute at next trading-day close after D.
+3. **Dividend timing** — entitled on ex-date; cash available `ex_date + 30` days (`ex_date_plus_30d`).
+4. **Average cost** — realized P&L uses weighted avg cost.
+5. **Fee** — all-in 0.3% per trade, no added VAT.
+
+### Shipped (commits on main)
+- `68f2cc1` Task 1 `backtest_readiness.py` — readiness + recommended start/end defaults, fail-closed.
+- `6439e9c` Task 2 `backtest_events.py` — event calendar + next-trading-day mapping.
+- `dc057e9` Task 3 `portfolio_ledger.py` — cash/positions/avg-cost/realized+unrealized P&L/dividend receivables/fees.
+- `71b893e` Task 4 `portfolio_rebalancer.py` — 50/20/30 → 100-lot executable orders, sells-first, no trade on unchanged target.
+- `6459015` Task 5 `backtest_engine.py` — event processor; refuses live-board fallback without a PIT scorer.
+- `c87767c` Task 6 `backtest_store.py` + strict `POST /api/v1/backtest/run` (readiness-gated) + `GET /api/v1/backtest/run(+<id>)`.
+- `d73a58b` Task 7 frontend — readiness gate disables Run + shows missing coverage; detailed report.
+
+### Verification
+- Standalone offline suite **52 tests** (readiness 9, events 14, ledger 15, rebalancer 5, engine 5, store 4). compileall + diff-check clean.
+- Static scan: no secrets/eval/debug (4 "secret" regex hits are the prose "missing token" string).
+- Live readiness on real data: `ready=false`, missing factor+siamchart, recommended_end=2026-08-27.
+- Live strict run on real data (no vintages): `POST /api/v1/backtest/run` → **400** + missing list (fail-closed).
+- Happy-path `scripts/probe_event_backtest.py` (synthetic PIT-complete): accounting_reconciled=True, identity lhs=rhs, leakage_guard=True, 100-lot holdings.
+- Cycle-1 independent review `deleg_5225e9de` flagged: engine's no-scorer fallback used the live board (look-ahead). Fixed to fail-closed. Cycle-2 review `deleg_b969075c` re-verifying.
+- Evidence: `docs/test-evidence/2026-08-28-event-driven-backtest.md`.
+
+### Honest scope / limitations
+- Current on-disk data has **no factor vintages / Siamchart manifest** → strict event backtest is blocked on real data until collection accumulates (this is the intended fail-closed behavior, matching "strict PIT or block").
+- Dividend payment timing is the confirmed `ex_date + 30d` **assumption** (Siamchart gives ex-date+DPS, not pay date); every result exposes `dividend_timing=ex_date_plus_30d`.
+- Only the new `/api/v1/backtest/run` route is event-driven/strict; the legacy `POST /api/v1/backtest` remains as the descriptive non-PIT path.
+
+## Exact next action
+Collect factor vintages + Siamchart snapshots over time (scheduler already seeds Siamchart baseline) until `/api/v1/backtest/readiness` reports `ready=true`, then run a real strict event backtest. Frontend already wires readiness → recommended dates.

 - Real dated dividend-history collector (2026-08-27, commit `f9973e8`): `siamchart.py` gained `parse_dividend_history`/`fetch_dividend_history` (reads the "ประวัติการปันผล" ex-date + DPS table per stock-info page); `dividend_ledger.py` gained `populate_dated_dividends` (registers dated rows, estimate=False). `POST /api/v1/dividends/update` fetches all snapshot symbols and persists a dated ledger at `data/dividends/ledger.json`; `use_ledger` backtests prefer the dated ledger (`dividend_method=dated_ledger`) and fall back to DPS estimates when unpopulated.

+# Test Evidence — Event-Driven PIT Backtest (2026-08-28)
+
+## Summary
+
+Replaced the calendar-based backtest loop with a strict point-in-time,
+event-driven engine implementing the user-confirmed lifecycle.
+
+## Confirmed user decisions implemented
+
+1. **Strict PIT** — backtest blocks (400 + missing list) when factor vintages,
+   Siamchart manifest, or executable prices do not fully cover the window.
+2. **Execution timing** — signal frozen on release date D; executed at next
+   trading-day close after D (no same-day look-ahead).
+3. **Dividend timing** — entitled on ex-date (shares held before it); cash
+   available exactly `ex_date + 30` calendar days, exposed as
+   `ex_date_plus_30d`.
+4. **Average cost** — realized P&L uses weighted average cost.
+5. **Fees** — all-in 0.3% of notional on every buy and every sell; no added VAT.
+

+- `leakage_guard: True` (pit_meta-attested scorer)
+- dividend cash credited (ex_date+30), receivable 0 by end
+- holdings all 100-lot multiples (A=5000, B=3000)
+- fee 0.3% applied (240.0)
