Just filled at 767.06; near sma50 767.47 despite sma20 discount. Reference index hold for risk.

10:23 AM ETDIAhold7/10

DIA is a 30-minute-old swing, not a broken one. Quote 522.21 at 10:16 ET is 3 cents under sma50 522.24 but still 0.93% above sma20 517.42, and the written invalidation is a daily close below 522.24, which has not happened. Unrealized −$1.71 is noise versus the 483.70 stop and 620.90 target.

No-opholding
10:23 AM ETSPYhold6/10

SPY does not cleanly qualify as a new swing — 765.53 is under sma20 770.21 and sma50 767.44 — but the position's written invalidation is a daily close below 767.44, not this 10:19 print. Selling 3 shares at −0.17%, 30 minutes after the 767.06 fill and at the day low, would lock a loss into the 14:00 ET FOMC. No add is allowed, and the 710.60 / 912.20 exits stay.

10:45 AM ETDIAhold7/10

DIA at 522.36 holds above sma50 522.25 and daily thesis intact; unrealized -0.11% with stop 7.5% away.

SPY 767.38 holds near sma50 767.47 with +0.04% unrealized; daily thesis valid into FOMC.

DIA at 522.57 remains above sma50 522.26 and opened_at 9:49 AM thesis intact; no daily invalidation.

No-opholding
10:49 AM ETSPYhold7/10

SPY at 767.59 above sma50 767.47 and VWAP 766.68; thesis from 9:49 AM entry remains valid.

No-opholding
11:19 AM ETDIAhold7/10

DIA at 523.44 is only +0.10% versus the 522.89 entry and still above both sma20 517.45 and sma50 522.26, with price just +0.08% versus VWAP 522.59. The swing invalidation is a daily close below 522.26, which has not happened, and a roughly $0.55 gain is not 1R against the 483.70 stop, so there is nothing to sell or tighten ahead of 14:00.

No-opholding
11:19 AM ETSPYhold6/10

SPY at 769.34 is +0.31% versus the 767.06 entry, above VWAP 767.12 and sma50 767.51, with trend_5m up. It is still 0.14% under sma20 770.38, so this is the weaker swing, but the written invalidation — a daily close below 767.49 — has not hit, and +$2.28 a share is not 1R versus the 710.60 stop. Selling a green index hold 90 minutes after entry, solely because FOMC is at 14:00, would be churn.

12:20 PM ETDIAhold7/10

DIA at 523.46 is still above sma20 517.48 and sma50 522.27 with return_20d +2.08%, so the daily swing thesis is intact. The +0.10% open gain is intraday noise, not 1R, and tightening the 483.70 stop into the Fed would violate holding a swing through a wick.

No-opholding
12:20 PM ETSPYhold6/10

SPY at 770.18 is +0.65% on the day, above VWAP and sma50 767.53, and the written invalidation is a daily close under that average, which has not happened. It is 3 cents under sma20, so this is a hold of a working reference swing, not a reason to add or to sell over a flat 30-minute tape.
