GOOGL put E1 printed at 11:20am at $387.00 and exited at 3:50pm at $382.98 for +$4.02 over 4 hours 30 minutes, with max MFE at +$4.80 and an 84% control ratio. Z3 activated bearish at 11:30am, two bars after entry, stayed favorable for 13 bars with 18 total cape bars, and peaked at -4.61 at 3:20pm. The move had structure behind it: the put started in the Loft above both VPOC and TPOC, a bear volume anchor was set at 11:05am above IB high with no opposing anchor below, DI- took control at 11:25am, the Kijun flip came at 12:10pm, range extension hit below IB low at 2:00pm at $384.33, and the 2:50pm-3:20pm window stacked Z3, active volume, tightened bands, and STD expansion. Pain stayed contained at $0.38 against the position, worst at 11:40am, and it took 50 minutes to show 10F, with $0.78 given back from the 3:45pm peak into the exit. This was not a clean immediate flush, but the general held, the confirmations kept building, and the hold was worth it despite the slow first hour.
