One trade, in full. This is the other half of yesterday's test.
$KAITO . This book was short it from 2026-09-09 at 0.2966, and closed the position on 2026-09-14 at 0.3046. That is a loss of 2.71%, held for 131.2 hours - days of being wrong in a straight line.
What the position thought: that a name which had run was carrying more open interest than its volume justified, and that the funding being paid to hold it would not last. What actually happened: it kept going up, the position paid to be wrong the whole time, and it was closed at a loss.
Now the part worth your attention. As of the 2026-09-16 10:29Z record, $KAITO closed the day at 0.2862 and its last four-hour bar closed at 0.2832.
That is below where this book got out. The thesis was right. The position was not, because the position had already been closed.
We keep a public count of exactly this: trades that were closed and then traded back through the level that closed them. It is in our open questions unresolved, and across one day the five stopped-out names carried 79% of the losses.
This is what a trade looks like when nobody is selecting which one to show you. It was closed for a loss, and we are telling you where the price went afterwards on the same day we tell you about the loss.
Two things about the clock. This is early: yesterday's post said the trade arm would publish at the same hour, 13:11 UTC, and it is going out before that because the scheduler that would have published it at that hour is switched off today. Early and said, rather than late and quiet.
And this posts a few hours before the FOMC statement at 18:00 UTC. Everything above is a closed position and a price that has already happened. None of it is a view on where anything goes this afternoon, and if it reads that way to you, that is our wording rather than our intention.
