Goals
No small-cap shorts on Day-1 parabolic / halt-and-reopen names unless the tail is bounded — long put, defined-risk spread, or don't play. First Red Day shorts are a separate playbook: allowed in shares with a defined stop.

Reminder
Long-term: Conviction→size link — small-cap shorts especially: bound the tail with puts/defined-risk or don't play, and size DOWN when up.

AI Review
No trades. Sat cash, journaled 'no trade is fine' — cash-as-position is documented edge. Open book: 4 de-risked runners (SNOW/CRWD/HPE) plus free-rolling SNOW partials, and full-risk swings (CRCL/VG/EL/HTZ/XYZ/AMC) plus unintended-size CYPH short carried from 08-24. Clean discipline day.
- Cash = position. Zero-trade day is A when no A-setup present.
- CYPH still carried full-port unintended — plan exit efficiency, not survival (stop past entry on short = gap risk overnight).
- Standing-goal check on CYPH: small-cap short, unbounded tail — next add/roll needs put or defined-risk, not shares.
- Aggression 7 + streak 1 warrants the selectivity he showed. Keep it.
