PLTR CALL +$1.50 (+150F) in 2h10m — E1 HOLD from loft

PLTR CALL — E1 HOLD entered 10:00am at $135.24 and exited 12:10pm at $136.75 for +$1.50, with the general staying favorable before a back-half retrace. Z3 activated at 10:45am (bullish cape, peak 3.97 at 11:25am) after the 10:00am–10:05am Kijun flip and range extension, then control ratio was 50% of max MFE +$3.04.

PLTR CALL HOLD entered at 10:00 am at $135.24 and exited at 12:10 pm at $136.75 for +$1.50, with the hold capturing 50% of the available move versus a max MFE of +$3.04 at 11:35 am. Z3 activated bullish at 10:45 am, 9 bars after E1, stayed favorable for 7 of 7 cape bars, and peaked at 3.97 at 11:25 am. The move had structure early: E1 printed in the Loft, a bull volume anchor from 9:35 am sat in the Cellar with no opposing anchor overhead, bands tightened into entry, the breakthrough window hit from 10:00 am to 10:05 am as the Kijun flip, range extension above IB high at $135.56, and an active volume bar aligned, then DI+ took control at 10:40 am and price later crossed VPOC and TPOC together at 11:20 am at $137.24. Pain was low: the entry was clean, price did not post a meaningful adverse close before showing the first 10F, but the exit gave back $1.53 from the peak. Clean campaign, moderate control ratio, and worth the hold even though the back-half retracement made it less efficient than the general allowed.
