Your trades also move LP. Above $2M, starting tail progress is set to LP minus $2M. Existing experiments keep their original settings.

Model assumptions Research +

These are research scenarios, not verified Papertrade execution. Zero conventional fees; hypothetical winner impact c = 2bp, beta = 2%, subtractive deadband = 0.2bp. Loss mint basis is 98%, or 100% for liquidation and underwater LP.

Both sides fill at one observed midpoint with no latency, spread or slippage. Actual entry/exit access, queues, liquidation paths and contract constants may differ. PAPER is assigned zero cash value.

— / loss basis

Starting LP is fixed for each experiment. Growing adds 50k per minute. Stress oscillates ±500k around the starting LP over ~31 minutes. Your settlements also move scenario LP. Tail progress tracks positive growth above 2m separately; the tail rate is 100 × (120m / (120m + H))². Queued profit can fund margin but is not cash; available receipts are paid FIFO as scenario liquidity returns. This is a simplified queue model.

THREE STEPS TO A BETTER QUESTION

01 / CHOOSE

Pick a direction

Try a long, a short, or a matched pair on BTC and ETH. Every experiment begins with virtual funds.

02 / OBSERVE

Let the move develop

Compare the price move with the modeled return. Leverage changes exposure; small winning moves face more impact.

03 / COMPARE

Count the cost

Close a trade to realize its result. Losses mint Practice PAPER. Compare tokens acquired with net USDC spent.
