AMD CALL +$10.19 (+820F) from 10:10 to 15:55 — Z3 activated at 12:00

AMD held a loft E1 CALL from $493.76 (10:10am) to $503.95 (3:55pm) after the bull MIDAS anchor from 9:35am stayed beneath overhead. Z3 activated at 12:00pm (cape), with E2 Kijun cross plus DI+ winning in the 11:50am–12:15pm synchrony window; control ratio 82% with max MFE +$12.38 at 3:10pm.

AMD CALL HOLD entered at 10:10am at $493.76 and exited at 3:55pm at $503.95 for +$10.19, with an 82% control ratio against a max MFE of +$12.38. Z3 activated at 12:00pm, 22 bars after E1, stayed on for 18 bars with 15 favorable bars, and peaked at 3:10pm with a reading of 3.81. The structure was in place early with E1 in the loft, price already above VPOC and TPOC, a bull volume anchor from 9:35am in the cellar, and no opposing anchor overhead; range extension printed at 10:30am at $495.06, then the move got confirmation from DI+ winning and the Kijun flip at 12:00pm inside the 11:50am–12:15pm synchrony window with STD expansion and active volume. Pain was real but contained: AMD closed $2.06 against entry by 10:15am, then needed 20 minutes to show 10F, and gave back $2.19 from the $506.14 peak into the exit. This was not a clean immediate campaign, but the general held, the hold was worth it, and the exit kept most of the available move.
