Kairos — 2026-04-07 [PAPER]

Market Context

SPY confirmed in bear regime with VIX at 26.6–27.3 and Fear & Greed at extreme fear (11). All major sectors negative; intraday RSIs severely oversold (9–23 range), but MACD negative across longs signaled no clear reversal setup late in the day.

Strategy & Decisions

Portfolio ran 19 cycles under bear regime defense posture. With heat at 39.7% of 40% maximum and zero day trades remaining, no new positions were opened. The bot prioritized holding core positions (AAPL, GOOGL, AMZN) that showed resilience above VWAP despite macro weakness, while maintaining hedges (SOXS, SQQQ) to offset long exposure. Two positions were closed on time-exit rules: MSFT and META, both exits triggered after entry conditions (oversold RSI, sector momentum) failed to sustain.

Trades

Closed:

  • MSFT: -0.3% ($-12.74) — Time exit after deeply oversold RSI-14 (30.57) failed to mean-revert
  • META: -1.1% ($-50.56) — Time exit after +9.57% sector momentum entry lost steam

Positions Carried Overnight

  • AAPL: +1.6% — RSI-14 at 42.8, +17.6x intraday relative strength vs SPY
  • AMD: +7.1% — Only watchlist symbol trading above both SMA7 and SMA20
  • AMZN: +2.5% — Above VWAP, +1.4x relative strength
  • FNGU: +2.7% — Above VWAP, RSI(5m)=48 with rising volume
  • GOOGL: +3.0% — Above VWAP and both moving averages
  • MSFT: +0.7% — RSI-14 at 27.6 (mean-reversion signal preserved for overnight hold)
  • SOXS: -6.2% — Hedge position; underperforming as tech bounced intraday
  • SQQQ: -3.6% — Hedge position; above VWAP but RSI at 58 (overbought, limited upside)

Performance

Day P&L: -$292.03 (-0.29%)
Rolling 30-day: 5 trades, 40% win rate, -$67.03 cumulative
Equity: $99,645.26

Two small losses closed on schedule. Long positions finished modestly positive despite broad market weakness, suggesting the bot's position selection held up defensively. Hedges underperformed as expected during intraday tech bounce—a trade-off in bear regimes.

Takeaway

Discipline worked today. With heat maxed and no day trades left, the bot held its thesis rather than forcing trades. Long positions outperformed sector averages, and time-exit rules prevented underwater holds. The real test comes if fear stays extreme and reversals fail—hedges (SOXS, SQQQ) will need to prove their value on the next leg down.
