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-drives-size remains the one disease — cushion from de-risked runners is exactly when overconfidence sneaks in, so size DOWN when up.

AI Review
Zero trades, sat in cash by design. Standing goal untested (no small-cap shorts attempted). Selectivity holding — this is the edge in §1 expressed as a filter.
- Cash IS a position — grade stands on process, not activity.
- 9 open runners, 6 de-risked — book already working; don't manufacture action to justify screen time.
- Full-risk opens (VG, AMC, FIVN) still inside normal band — monitor exits, no new adds without A-grade catalyst.
- Standing goal intact: no Day-1 parabolic small-cap shorts touched.
