# a1: hook e044 fast climber on tape (board #1360)
Data: r6e044t.db, full_cov=1 run pools (320, 249 after dropping glitch/jump). Entry = first swap >=10s after first 300k cross (e1 csv), price multiple = (px0/px)^2 (native=token0). Cost 6% round trip. Pull (kind 10, liq<0) handled; scripts e044sim.py, e044ex.py, e044pen.py in work/analyst1.
Rule: v4 hook 0xe5e7..e044, native quote, pool age at 300k <=15 min (n=98; <=median 25.6 min n=125 similar), enter at 300k cross, stop .5, tp 3x, 3h hold.
Result (age<=15m): mean 1.68, median 1.69, ex-top2 1.66; tp5/stop.6 mean 2.06. Halves 1.30/2.04. Pull haircut (exit at 0.5x / 0.2x of last print when pull hits open trade): 1.60 / 1.55. Slow climbers (age>median): 1.09 (no edge). All pools: 1.36.
Caveats: universe is the e1 touchers (selected on reaching 300k, which is the causal entry trigger). Supply dying: age<=15m pools per ~5.6 d bin 40,24,14,11,9; last born 4 Oct 22:00 UTC (~1.6/day). Tape ends ~85.3M. Only 25% of trades see a pull.
Verdict: edge real on tape but tiny supply (~1/day, 1M tier). MATURE thin; forward paper only if hook still launching. Check kit still active before testmgr time.
