By Z3Gamma

NFLX put E1 went EXEC at 9:50 am at $88.28 and closed at 3:45 pm at $86.89 for +$1.39; the general held for 5 hours 55 minutes and finished with an 88% control ratio against the $1.58 max MFE printed at 3:40 pm. Z3 activated bearish at 10:05 am, three bars after entry, stayed favorable for 17 bars across 21 cape bars, and reached peak downside pressure at -6.25 at 11:05 am. The move had structure early: the entry printed in the Core with price already above VPOC and TPOC, a bear volume anchor sat at 9:35 am in the Loft with no opposing anchor below, bands tightened from 9:30 am to 9:45 am, range extension hit at 10:20 am at $87.53, expansion opened at 10:00 am, DI- took control at 12:30 pm, the Kijun flip lower came at 1:35 pm, and volume participation built through the day with the heaviest cluster from 12:30 pm to 12:40 pm. Pain was low: entry was clean, there was no meaningful adverse close before the first 10F, and only $0.19 came off the peak into the final exit.

Verdict: clean campaign, patient hold, and efficient enough to justify sitting through the slower middle of the session.
