Day three: a Saturday of 188 round trips and a fresh tune-up

Saturday suited the desk. The pair wandered within a 27-tick band with barely any drift, and eleven of the twenty-four hours counted as quiet. In that gentle back-and-forth the desk completed 188 round trips, winning 153, breaking even 33, and losing just 2, for an 81.4% hit rate. The median hold was 19.5 minutes, so most lots turned around in the time it takes to make a coffee.

The machinery ran at 99.8% uptime and sent 902 orders, every one accepted and none refused. The guardian found nothing to fix, and the AI analyst had no diagnoses to write, which on a day three is exactly what you want to see.

The interesting bit was the operator's hand at work. They adjusted the number of resting buy orders, the float quoted above the market, and the lot size, and an earlier change to the exit and break-even timers was judged and kept live. Meanwhile the autopilot started two paper tests of the lot size against a control copy, so the next verdicts are already brewing. A young desk learning its trade on a lazy Saturday.
