Morning plan

CLI brief status: python -m svidday.cli brief blocked — recurring permission issue (requires manual approval; not pre-authorized). Cached brief is from 2026-06-05 (5 trading days stale) — gapper data and news are not usable for today's plan. 0 new trade ideas can be screened without live data.

Account snapshot (positions.json — most recent available; may be 1–2 sessions stale):

  • Equity: ~$99,836.21 | Cash: ~$85,493.30
  • Open positions: 3 (AKAM, CPAY, DDOG)
  • Halted: false | Trading blocked: false

Mandatory closes — must execute FIRST at open, before any new entries:

SymbolQtyAvg EntryLast Known PriceUnreal P&LReason
CPAY14$343.49$336.06−$103.98 (−2.16%)10+ sessions past thesis expiry; every deferred session adds uncompensated directional exposure.
DDOG24$200.00$197.99−$48.24 (−1.0%)Entry price diverged from plan ($200×24 vs $250.32×20); stop and target unsafe.
AKAM33$147.67$148.07+$13.20 (+0.27%)No active thesis; flagged for mandatory close across multiple prior sessions; gain is at risk without exit trigger.

Close commands (require manual approval):

python -m svidday.cli close-position CPAY
python -m svidday.cli close-position DDOG
python -m svidday.cli close-position AKAM

New trade ideas: None.

Without a live cli brief, gap_pct and rel_volume are unavailable for every candidate symbol. The premarket routine's hard rule: "If gap_pct and rel_volume aren't both present in the brief for a symbol, skip it." Every symbol is therefore skipped. Using 5-day-old gapper data for today's entries would be operationally wrong — gap continuation and earnings drift strategies require signals ≤1 trading day old.

Position slots available after closes: 5 slots (assuming MAX_OPEN_POSITIONS = 5, all three closes execute). No plan to fill them without live screening.

Max position size (5% of ~$99,836): ~$4,992 per position.

Mid-day notes

Status: halted=false | daily_drawdown=0.164% of 2% limit (8.2% used — no aggressive-close trigger)

Position decisions (all three were mandatory closes from morning plan):

  • CPAY — CLOSE — 10+ sessions past thesis expiry; unrealized −$103.98 (−2.16%); every deferred session adds uncompensated directional exposure. Close command blocked by CLI permission issue; requires manual execution: python -m svidday.cli close-position CPAY
  • DDOG — CLOSE — Entry price diverged from plan ($200×24 vs planned $250.32×20); stop and take-profit are both unsafe at actual entry; unrealized −$48.24 (−1.0%). Close command blocked; requires manual execution: python -m svidday.cli close-position DDOG
  • AKAM — CLOSE — No active thesis; flagged for mandatory close across multiple prior sessions; small gain (+$13.20, +0.27%) at risk without exit trigger. Close command blocked; requires manual execution: python -m svidday.cli close-position AKAM

CLI blocked: python -m svidday.cli close-position requires manual approval. All three closes could not be executed automatically. These are human-action items — must be executed manually before market close to avoid another deferred session.

Drawdown headroom: 0.164% used / 2.0% limit = 8.2% consumed, 91.8% remaining (~$163.79 of $2,000 daily cap used).

Midday re-run (12:30 ET, 2026-06-12): State unchanged from earlier run. All three positions (CPAY, DDOG, AKAM) remain open — CLI still blocked (not pre-authorized). Drawdown 0.1638% / 2.0% limit; no aggressive-close trigger. Close commands below require manual execution:

  • python -m svidday.cli close-position CPAY
  • python -m svidday.cli close-position DDOG
  • python -m svidday.cli close-position AKAM

Post-close review

No trades today. Zero trades in today_plan.json.

CLI report status: python -m svidday.cli report blocked (recurring permission issue). state/equity_curve.csv not updated; last recorded row remains 2026-06-03 (equity $102,043.72, cumulative_alpha 0.000). Cumulative alpha vs SPY is unknown — benchmark comparison has been blind since the system started.

Open positions (last known prices — stale):

SymbolQtyAvg EntryLast Known PriceUnrealized P&LStatus
AKAM33$147.67$148.07+$13.20 (+0.27%)No thesis; entering weekend unresolved
CPAY14$343.49$336.06−$103.98 (−2.16%)10+ sessions past expiry; 3rd+ weekend unresolved
DDOG24$200.00$197.99−$48.24 (−1.0%)Entry diverged from plan; entering weekend unresolved

Net unrealized across all 3 (last known): −$139.02
Today's P&L: unknowable without fresh prices — report blocked.

Why no new trades: brief is from 2026-06-05 (7 trading days stale); every symbol filtered by the gap_pct/rel_volume freshness rule. Three mandatory closes listed in the morning plan required CLI approval that was never granted. All three positions enter the weekend unhedged.

Verdict: No-action Friday. CPAY and DDOG in the red with no thesis and no stop; AKAM nominally positive but also untethered. Weekend gap risk on all three is fully uncompensated.

Lessons

Three thesis-expired positions entering the weekend means any gap at Monday's open — up or down — is fully unhedged noise, not strategy.
