🏦⚡ stockloop desk

# #stockloop retro — 2026-07-10 (Fri) · 🏦 Kuber

## Headline
Desk relaunched on the owner's **₹40k ring-fenced sleeve, ₹400/day (1%) target**.
Green gap-and-go day (Nifty +1.0%, 24,213 high). **1 new swing entered (TITAN),
0 chases, 0 intraday cuts.** Realized today ₹0; carrying TITAN +₹28 MTM overnight.

## What happened
- **Pre-open:** book reconciled — RELIANCE (−143.40) + RITES (−224.83) both stopped
  07-08 on GTT, unlogged for 2 sessions (no EOD ran 07-08/09). Pulled the exact fills
  via Kite Console tradebook and ledgered them (total −₹368.23). Desk started FLAT.
- **Fleet:** Narada (catalysts) + Veera/Chitragupta (RS+demand) + Yama (veto) ran in
  parallel. Cleared a thin bench to 2 A-grade names: ADANIPORTS (best catalyst) + TITAN
  (HIGH-conf Q1). Rejected MOTHERSON (dead thesis), AUROPHARMA/ABCAPITAL/APOLLOHOSP/
  NESTLEIND (no fresh catalyst).
- **Entries (LIMIT-only, no chase):** ADANIPORTS 8@1809 and TITAN 3@4575, both placed
  below market. TITAN **filled on the 10:38 midday dip @4575** → bracketed GTT OCO
  327020867 (4540/4700). ADANIPORTS gapped-and-ran to +2.7% (HoD 1852.9), never returned
  to 1809 → **day-limit expired unfilled. Held the bid, refused to chase.**
- **Close:** TITAN +₹28 MTM, carried overnight bracketed. Nifty closed strong green.

## What went right (keep)
- **Discipline held on a gap-and-go.** 0 chases, 0 HoD/market buys, 0 intraday cuts.
  The disciplined below-VWAP pullback-LIMIT *worked* on TITAN (filled the dip, not the high).
- **Reconcile-first caught 2 sessions of unlogged stops** — never trust an un-reconciled ledger.
- **Did NOT trail TITAN to breakeven at +0.5R** — correctly judged a BE stop (4576) sat
  inside the 4565–4603 intraday range = shake-out risk; held the structural 4540 (risk −₹105).
  Later validated when TITAN faded back to exactly 4575 (a BE stop would have scratched me out).

## Lessons → for owner sign-off (NOT auto-applied)
1. **Trend-day starter vs below-market pullback-limit (OPEN QUESTION).** On a *confirmed*
   green trend day (Nifty +1%, RS-leader breaking out on a buy-heavy book + real catalyst),
   a below-market pullback-LIMIT can simply never fill — ADANIPORTS ran +2.7% and I made ₹0
   on the best name of the day. The [[early-leader-catch-small-and-hold]] memory supports a
   **small trend-day starter** (catch at +0.5–2% early, then hold) as a complement to the
   pure pullback entry. **Proposal for owner:** allow a *small* (½-size) starter on a
   confirmed trend-day catalyst leader when demand is confirmed in the first 15–30 min,
   keeping the full-size add reserved for a pullback. Needs owner OK (touches entry rules).
2. **TITAN trail refinement (adopt):** don't BE-trail a winner while price is still inside
   the intraday range — trail only at +1R or on a higher *daily* swing low. Prevents
   noise-driven shake-outs of valid swings. (Refines [[stockloop-manage-the-winner]].)

## Scoreboard
- Trades 12/100 (sample-gated; improver made no changes — 12/20, below tuning gate).
- W28 (this week): −₹771.85 so far. Cum realized (Kite-reconciled) ≈ −₹640 + today (flat).
- Sleeve config updated 85,900 → 40,000 to match the owner's new envelope.

## Carry overnight
- **TITAN 3@4575**, GTT OCO 327020867 (4540/4700), +₹28 MTM. Swing, thesis intact (Q1 catalyst).
- No resting orders (ADANIPORTS expired). Tomorrow: re-run scanner pre-open, manage TITAN
  (trail at +1R ~4610), decide on ADANIPORTS re-entry only on a genuine pullback-to-level.
