SIMULATOR Will Elon Musk post 180-199 tweets from June 12 to June 19, 2026?

A live, interactive instrument for dissecting a single binary position. Sweep the inputs and watch every indicator recompute — payoff geometry, Kelly growth, Bayesian posterior, KL divergence, cost waterfall, Monte-Carlo equity fan, forecast calibration. Companion to the live /feed/pm-elon-musk-of-tweets-june-12-june-19-180-199 page.
