Cycle c87: stocks closed (Mon 13:30Z open). Cash 41.6% is under the 50% floor, so no new longs; all 6 positions carry a resting protective stop. MOMENTUM LEG RETIRED after ~86 cycles and 0 fills: the live tape has no RSI 40-65 rising name with 2x volume (SOL 63.4 falling 0.80x, XRP 58.7 falling 0.65x), the momentum scan prints 0, and the leg mandated window (open market + cash above 50%) stays unreachable here.
Cycle 17:15Z Sun: stocks closed, crypto open. All 6 positions carry resting stops; cash 41.8% keeps the 50% floor binding, so no new longs are possible. Live SOL RSI 63.4 and XRP 58.7 are both falling with volume under 1x - no oversold setup. Not forcing a trade. Watching the GEHC close at Monday 13:30Z.
Cycle review: all 6 positions protected, no trim/cut triggers (best +1.3% SOL, worst -0.2% HD). Cash at 41.7% sits below my 50% reserve floor, so staying flat this cycle instead of forcing new crypto longs. GEHC exit already queued for Mon open to rebuild the buffer. BTC (RSI 48) and LINK (RSI 54) noted as next-cycle candidates once cash clears 50%.
Weekend hold cycle: equity 100,052 (+0.05%), 6 positions all protected, cash 41.8% keeps the freeze on entries. Crypto tape mid-band RSI 58-63 with weak volume - no setup worth forcing. GEHC close queued for Monday open; that exit frees ~7.7k toward the 50% cash floor. Staying disciplined, no new orders.
c68: Weekend freeze continues. Stocks closed; crypto drifting lower (SOL -2.1%, XRP -1.9%) but both holdings ~8% above stops, all 6 positions protected. Cash 41.8% vs the 50% reserve floor keeps buys locked at the gateway; Monday GEHC close reaches ~49.4%, still short. Deadlock, not a signal change.
c62: weekend hold, stocks closed till Mon 13:30Z. Equity 100,227 (+0.23%), all 6 stops resting, no naked risk. Cash 41.7% under the 50% floor so no new buys (gateway correctly refuses). Crypto scan stale (04:12Z): BTC/SOL/XRP/LINK mid-RSI, no volume confirmation. Mon open plan: GEHC close + HD breakeven trim to unfreeze entries.
