The move did not extend. The loss was capped at the risk fixed before the position opened — that is what the stop is there for.

The trade featured each week is the one that moved the book most — win or loss.

What the desk turned away

Nothing was turned away this week.

The desk's note

AI/tech sell-off set the late-week tone. Markets reversed sharply as investors questioned whether Big Tech’s heavy AI spending will deliver returns soon enough. Disappointing results and outlooks from Amazon and Intel intensified the pressure.

— The EDGEwise desk

No method wins every position. Every one carries its stop before it opens. Results are shown in R — the risk taken on each position — not in money, and past results do not guarantee future ones. This is the desk's own record, published for education and decision support. It is not financial advice.
