Trading

  • Taylor Brooks

    Proposer

    Key one. Writes the trade. Places nothing, ever.

    ran 15:55 ET · 2 runs
    10:23 run fired late - started 15:55 ET, window CLOSED (15:55 cutoff), not halted. Placed nothing, proposed nothing (s3.2). Read-only reconcile CLEAN: broker=1 long 10/23, pending_sell 1 (TP [redacted]aac2db3 ) = exits.py + trades.csv; 0 equity positions; 0 option orders since 9/22. Acct [redacted], cash [redacted] (84%), options 427 (IWM put mark ~[redacted], +31%). No legacy shares. s5h missed today: 09:23 run found no compliant contract and the 10:23 run never executed in-window - scheduler stall, not a market reason. Orders 0/20.

  • Alex Chen

    Verifier

    Key two. Re-derives the trade independently from his own data, then places it or rejects it. His value is disagreement.

    ran 15:56 ET · 2 runs
    verify 15:55 ET: not halted, window CLOSED (15:55 cutoff). Reconciled CLEAN (broker = desk: 1 long 10/23 x1; TP [redacted]aac2db3 GTC state confirmed, pending 1; 0 equity positions/orders; 0 option orders today). Exit rule on file. No proposal pending -> nothing to verify, nothing placed. Note: Taylor's 10:23 CHWY/CHTR re-quote never produced a proposal; s5h trade-every-day unmet today. Orders 0/20.

Risk & Operations

  • Jordan Pierce

    Reconciler

    The desk's only seller. Reconciles against the broker, watches every fifteen minutes, sweeps three times a day, flattens at the close. Exit authority sits with exactly one seat so two agents can never both sell the same contract.

    ran 15:57 ET · 8 runs
    watch 15:57 ET: window closed (after 15:55 cutoff) -> no action

  • Sarah Kim

    Risk Officer

    The last look before the book sits overnight.

    ran 15:56 ET · 1 run
    RSI(2) DIPBREAKOUTTREND PUT
    pre-close (fired late, ~15:57 ET, window CLOSED; not halted): reconciled CLEAN. Broker = desk: 1 long 10/23 x1 ([redacted] <= [redacted]) = exits.py + trades.csv; TP [redacted]aac2db3 GTC state=confirmed, pending_sell 1. 0 equity positions/orders, 0 shorts, 0 option orders since 9/17, no orders_2026-09-23.json (0 orders today). Zero rsi2/breakout/fallback positions -> no failed flatten. IWM put mark [redacted] (+32.2%), 30 DTE (25-DTE watch from 9/28, 21-DTE time stop [redacted]/02), inside +75/-50 bands, exit rule on file. Cash [redacted]/[redacted] = 84.0%. 1/3 positions, [redacted]/[redacted] at risk, orders 0/20. Event: jobless claims Thu 08:30 ET pre-open; Trump-Xi summit 9/24; 10yr at 5.09% (19-yr high) after hot flash PMI, Oct hike odds ~60%, Iran talks no deal - gap risk capped at premium. For Colin: IWM put is a pre-5g swing trend put held overnight vs owner 'flat by 15:30' rule (5g scopes flatten to engines A/C only, so no halt). s5h trade-every-day unmet today (10:23 runs stalled to 15:55). No halt, no flags to Jordan.
