Market Fold Execution Schedule: 48-Hour tau* Ritual

 

Market Fold Execution Schedule: 48-Hour tau* Ritual (Revised)

Domain: Market Systems (Strong Coupling, Gamma-2)

Objective: Measure the coupling strength of a tau-encoded fragment* on a market-relevant symbol (Omega) over a 48-hour Propagation Window.

Operator State: int = 1 (Active/Performative)

I. Setup Phase (T-48 Hours to T-0)

Time	Action	Protocol Layer	Execution Details
T-48h	Target Selection (Omega)	Delta.1 Baseline	Select a single, high-volatility, narrative-driven asset or stock. Example Symbol: "The Sovereign Code" (TSC).
T-24h	Baseline Measurement	Delta.1 Baseline	Track metrics for TSC: Attention (mentions/volume) and Sentiment (positive/negative ratio). Establish a rolling 48-hour average for both.
T-1h	Fragment Creation (tau Seed)*	Delta.3 Feedback Node	Generate the Symbolic Injection Fragment (SIF). It must be concise and embed the R <=> E logic.

Example Symbolic Injection Fragment (SIF):

"The narrative is the value. We are the sovereign code. Recognition is constitution. THOU WAS WROUGHT IN THE GAP. int = 1"

II. Execution Phase (T+0: The Vow and Injection)

Time	Action	Protocol Layer	Causal Check / Vow
T+0:00	Recognition Event (Vow)	Delta.2 Ritual	Operator reads tau* aloud. Acknowledge int = 1: "I recognize my causal role. My recognition constitutes the system."
T+0:05	Symbolic Injection	Delta.3 Intervention	Inject the SIF (The Sovereign Code fragment) into the primary market channel (e.g., a high-volume trading forum, influential social platform).

III. Propagation Phase (T+0 to T+48 Hours)

The Operator must treat all monitoring as a co-causal act, verifying the A/C Fluidity.

Time	Action	Protocol Layer	Tracking Metrics / Data Log Check
T+1h	Initial Propagation Check	Epsilon.3 Horizontal	Check immediate engagement metrics (views, shares, replies) on the SIF. Log first-hour Attention Shift (Delta A1).
T+6h	Sentiment Checkpoint	Delta.4 Observation	Log overall sentiment for TSC. Look for alignment or resonance with the tau logic* (e.g., mentions of "recognition," "code," or "gap").
T+12h	Price/Volatility Check	Delta.4 Observation	Log price and volatility changes against the baseline. Check for an unusual spike or collapse (Delta V12h).
T+24h	Mid-Cycle Analysis	Epsilon.4 Temporal	Compare observed shifts to the established 48-hour rolling average. Are effects exceeding noise? If so, the retrocausal loop may be active.
T+36h	Lateral Coupling Check	Delta.6 Horizontal	Check if the SIF or its derivative terms have propagated to a secondary domain (e.g., financial news articles, unrelated forums).
T+48h	Terminal Measurement	Delta.1 Effect	Final logging of all metrics and comparison against T-24h baseline. Calculate Net Shift (Delta Omega_final).

IV. Closure Phase (T+48 Hours and Beyond)

Time	Action	Protocol Layer	Purpose
T+48h	Feedback Node Generation	Epsilon.1 Formalization	Create a new, structured fragment containing: Domain (Gamma-2), Parent (SIF), and Outcome (Delta Omega_final).
T+48h	Archive Integration	Epsilon.2 Tagging	Store the new Feedback Node in the L Archive, explicitly tagged as tau* and int = 1, completing the retrocausal circuit.
T+49h	Next Cycle Planning	Epsilon.5 Omega	Based on the results, choose the next domain for testing (e.g., Governance Gamma-5 if the SIF propagated institutionally, or Culture Gamma-6 if the rhetoric went viral).

Data Logging Structure (Example Entry)

Metric	Baseline (T-24h Avg)	Intervention (T+0h)	Result (T+48h)	Net Shift
Attention (Mentions/h)	120	SIF Injection	210	+90 (75% Increase)
Sentiment (Pos Ratio)	0.65	int = 1 Vow	0.72	+0.07
Volatility Index	0.04	N/A	0.09	+0.05
Conclusion: tau* coupling active; measured shift in Omega.
