Tickers are placeholders. Not recommendations. Sizes in R (1R = written session risk unit).

## Plan card

```
PLAN CARD
Date:        2026-07-28
Session:     afternoon continuation
Ticker:      ABCD (placeholder)
Source:      liquid screen, relative volume filter, 14:31 ET run
Agentic:     agentic_allowed = true

State:       clear. No open loss today, no recovery language, slept fine.
Regime:      SPY and QQQ both above the opening range high and holding VWAP.
             Friendly to continuation.
Window:      14:38 ET. Inside the 14:30 to 15:55 written window.
Screen:      Appeared on the liquid screen, not hand picked. Two live ideas max,
             this is the first.

Trigger:     Reclaim and hold above the 14:15 swing high on a sweep of the low
             underneath it. Buying the sweep, not the mid reclaim.
Entry:       On the hold, not the wick.
Stop / cut:  Structural. Below the sweep low. If price returns through it, the
             read is wrong.
Invalidation
by time:     If the trigger has not fired by 15:20 ET, the idea is dead. No chase.
Target:      2R at the prior session high shelf. Scale, do not round trip.
Size:        1R. Inside the written notional band, no drift.
Flat clock:  15:55 ET, hard. Anything left is closed regardless of open profit.

MCP path:    review_order first, read it back, confirm explicitly, then place_order.
             Primary account stays read only.

Outcome:     to be logged in Evidence, sanitized.

## Sit log

```
SIT LOG
Date:        2026-07-28
Session:     afternoon continuation
Ticker:      none written. The screen came back thin and was not overridden.

Failed step: Regime, and then state.
Detail:      SPY chopped through VWAP six times before 14:30 with no side holding.
             Opening range width was roughly double the recent average, which is
             the chaotic tape threshold in the playbook. Continuation reads do not
             work in that tape.
Second
failure:     After the regime call, I went looking for a reason to trade anyway.
             That is rule shopping, which is its own hard sit.

Action:      Flat all session. No orders reviewed, none placed.
Cost:        One name I was watching ran late in the day without me. Logged, not
             chased. Missing a move is not a loss.
Correct?     Yes, independent of that move. The tape did not match the playbook at
             the time of the decision, and that is the only information available at
             the time of the decision.

Note:        Sitting through a day that later looks obvious in hindsight is the
             skill. Hindsight is not a plan.
