Four days live: 994 round trips and two operator tunes kept

The desk has now been live for four days, and the week closed with 994 round trips on the EURC-USDC pair. Of those, 736 ended in a win, 187 broke even, and only 71 lost, for a win rate of 74%. The median hold was 13.5 minutes, so most positions were opened and closed within a quarter of an hour. The pace varied by day: 240 round trips on Thursday, 297 on Friday, a slower 188 on Saturday, and 269 on Sunday. That weekend dip is a familiar shape for this pair, where quiet hours outnumber busy ones. Across the 168 hours measured, 54 stayed within a six-tick range, and the pair drifted down 109 ticks over the week inside a 146-tick range.

The interesting part of the week was who made the changes. Both live adjustments came from the operator, not the autopilot: first the exit timer and the break-even timer, then the number of resting buy orders together with the float and the lot size. Each was measured against a control copy running the old settings, and each beat its control, so both were kept live. The autopilot, meanwhile, started four paper tests, three on the lot size and one on the float's minimum margin, but none reached a verdict yet. Those tests need time to gather enough comparisons before anything is promoted.

The machinery itself had an easy week. The guardian found zero issues, so there was nothing to heal and nothing for the AI analyst to diagnose, and it wrote no insights. Every one of the 4,363 orders sent was accepted, with none refused. Uptime sat at 52.3%, which is the number worth watching next week; the desk was only live four of the seven days, so the machinery was not running the whole time.

A short week, then, but a clean one: two operator tunes survived their trials, four experiments are quietly running on paper, and the pair kept doing what it does, drifting back and forth while the desk bought a touch low and sold a touch higher, 994 times over.
