Built from commit 2b71378e3c15494037263b88121520f232e3db20 on 2026-10-30.

What's new

• RELEASE_PLAN: releases go to the public repo (RELEASES_TOKEN and RELEASES_REPO set)
• Evergreen: soft off-white values (#e6e3da) and a deeper cream (#dcd4b8), out of the glare range
• Updater: release copies check latest.json, download, check sha256 and restart into the new version
• HOME logo: the mark as tall as simcoe, from the i's dot to the baseline, set further from the word
• Evergreen in forest green and cream; one Theme window of clickable samples; simcoe as tall as the mark on HOME
• Themes easy to find: View › Theme (Evergreen / Amber, Dark / Light, Theme samples…)
• Rebrand to Simcoe Trading: Evergreen and Amber themes, the simcoe logo on HOME, the new icon
• Simcoe Trading logo: the lake mark beside simcoe / trading, made by tools/make_logo.py
• RELEASE_PLAN: the engine server is live on Fly.io (one machine)
• RELEASE_PLAN: sign-up codes work through Resend; the link-scanner lesson (codes only, never links)
• Account screen: 2FA setup opens (and shows its QR code), 2FA plainly optional, no crash going back
• RELEASE_PLAN: fast sign-up email through Resend from mail.simcoetrading.com (Supabase Pro, GoDaddy DNS)
• Account screen: separate Sign in and Create an account (with Confirm password), live while it works; connections retried
• Accounts: sign in and sign up work on the Mac (certifi's certificates for urllib)
• Engine server: an allowance of calls per person, and every refusal logged
• Engine server on Fly.io: its image, fly.toml, and a release-job step that checks and deploys it
• Engines out of the app: MODL, VAL and the backtest's scoring move to engines/, run here or on the engine server
• Engine server: MODL and VAL over HTTP, with Supabase sign-in, and the plan reworked around it
• Double-click buttons: Release.command builds a release on GitHub and shows it; Build Mac App.command rebuilds locally
• Releases: version stamp, Help › About, LICENSE and licence notices, a nightly release job
• Run on PySide6 (Qt 6) instead of PyQt5, so the app can ship under the LGPL
• RELEASE_PLAN: website, updates, accounts and code protection
• TRADE: the OPTIONS desk opens while trading for a portfolio, and fits a short tile
• TRADE: Interactive Brokers alongside Alpaca, for stocks and ETFs on the TSX, TSXV, LSE and other exchanges
• Portfolio 1D vs benchmark: both from the previous close
• FUNC: TECH and FUND, movable tabs, mnemonic-first command lines; NSE date range; fixes
• Portfolio orders sync between machines: their fills book into the portfolio, not the whole account
• Chart: price vs total return. Comparisons on a PRICE / TOTAL / BOTH basis; one security's PRICE vs TOTAL series
• FUNC fits a squeezed panel or window: grids, DATA, heatmaps, DDIS and the function keys
• FUNC panels see the loaded security: a DASHBOARD panel, window or tab with none of its own uses the app's
