 | `ev` | Single-sided directional execution from calibrated probability/insight | One-leg intent (`side=yes|no`), confidence/edge thresholding, cooldown + per-market/portfolio EV notional caps | `signalMode=ev|both`, `evEdgeRequired`, `evConfidenceMin`, `evCooldownSeconds`, `evMaxPerMarketNotional`, `evMaxPortfolioNotional` |
-| `fw_projection` | Frank-Wolfe optimized projection for dependency-aware opportunity selection | Solver-driven lower-bound checks, only converged/feasible opportunities proceed, dependency graph quality affects candidate set | `fwDependency*`, `fwGapAbsTolerance`, `fwGapRelTolerance`, `fwMaxLoopRuntimeMs`, `fwMinEdgeThreshold` |
+| `fw_projection` | Frank-Wolfe optimized projection for dependency-aware opportunity selection | Solver-driven lower-bound checks; strict profiles require converged loops, while permissive profiles may accept approximate positive iterates | `fwDependency*`, `fwGapAbsTolerance`, `fwGapRelTolerance`, `fwRequireConverged`, `fwMaxLoopRuntimeMs`, `fwMinEdgeThreshold` |
 | `fw_basket` | Multi-market FW basket execution | Basket-level selection/ranking, market count bounds, configurable basket execution mode (`sequential_failfast` or `batch_best_effort`) | `fwBasketMinMarkets`, `fwBasketMaxMarkets`, `fwBasketExecutionMode`, `fwMaxPerMarketNotional`, `fwMaxPortfolioNotional` |
 
 Operator notes:
 - Dashboard intent labels are normalized to `near_zero`, `ev`, `fw_projection`, and `fw_basket`.
 - `ev_single_side` is displayed as `ev`.
 - If explicit strategy metadata is missing, IDs can infer strategy (`:fw:`, `:fwb:`, `:yes:`, `:no:`).
+- Preset split: `near_zero`, `moderate`, and `high` keep FW convergence strict, while `extra_high` leaves `fwRequireConverged=false` for exploratory approximate-iterate operation.
