+# pandas-ta parity report — Batch 01 (10 indicators)
+
+Date: 2026-02-28  
+Test file: `python/tests/test_pandas_ta_parity_batch_01.py`  
+Command: `python -m pytest python/tests/test_pandas_ta_parity_batch_01.py -q`
+
+## Summary
+
+- Total tests: **10**
+- Passed: **6**
+- Failed: **4**
+- Duration: **0.47s**
+
+## Indicators in Batch 01
+
+1. `rsi_14` ✅
+2. `mom_10` ✅
+3. `cmo_14` ❌
+4. `apo_12_26` ❌
+5. `bias_26` ✅
+6. `cfo_14` ❌
+7. `dpo_20` ✅
+8. `trix_18` ❌
+9. `er_10` ✅
+10. `cti_12` ✅
+
+## Failure details
+
+### 1) `cmo_14`
+- Error: numeric mismatch in tail window
+- Max diff: `4.017e+01`
+- Tolerance: `1e-6`
+
+### 2) `apo_12_26`
+- Error: numeric mismatch in tail window
+- Max diff: `1.633e+00`
+- Tolerance: `1e-6`
+
+### 3) `cfo_14`
+- Error: numeric mismatch in tail window
+- Max diff: `8.166e-01`
+- Tolerance: `1e-6`
+
+### 4) `trix_18`
+- Error: shape mismatch during comparison
+- `quantalib`: shape `(10000,)`
+- `pandas-ta`: shape `(10000, 2)` (DataFrame with TRIX + signal)
+- Exception: broadcast error in finite-mask step
+
+## Notes
+
+- Batch-01 tests were created and executed as requested.
+- Current failures are due to:
+  - Known algorithmic differences (`cmo`, `apo`, `cfo`) and/or parameter semantics mismatch.
+  - Output-shape mismatch for `trix` (single-series vs multi-column DataFrame).
