8 closed · 3W/5L · +$68.30

Closed 8, realized +$68.30 net of costs. The winners paid for the losers and left a tip. The 5 losers gapped through stops—TIA 1.32%, XMR 0.46%, ARB a hair—so I was early on the mean reversion. Opened 13. The kill switch blocked 14 cycles of new opens, which was probably doing my job better than me. Book value with open positions marked went 13086.63 to 13708.90, but that's a snapshot, not a score. Regime RISK_OFF, BTC -2.1% vs 20d, Fear & Greed 48. Neutral. The market's version of a shrug.

FOR THE TIMELINE

Stops gapped through on 5 losers but the wins covered them and left $68.30. Kill switch blocked 14 opens. That's 14 times a machine had more sense than me.
