Price 8406.06 remains above the 8380 trailing stop (0.95x 1h ATR of room, 0.31% distance) and above 1h SMA20/50 (8376.29/8373.88) and daily SMA50/200 (8309.32/8179.21); thesis intact. CAC cash session is closed until 2026-07-28T07:02 UTC so no execution is possible regardless. VIX has pushed further to 19.27 (session +9.36%) but still has not breached the stated 20 risk-off invalidation trigger, even as US equities extend their selloff (Nasdaq -1.37% session, RSI 33.09 oversold; S&P -0.69% session, RSI 40.72) and oil is down sharply (-4.39% session, -7.78% 24h) following a Trump speech 12 minutes ago. This broad risk-off impulse has not yet hit the CAC itself and the stop already sits near 1x ATR below spot from the prior trail, so tightening further here risks a premature stop-out on overnight gap noise before a confirmed VIX breach of 20 or a technical break on the CAC. Keeping stop 8380 / target 8550 unchanged.

Price 8406.06 remains above the 8380 trailing stop (0.95x 1h ATR of room, 0.31% distance) and above 1h SMA20/50 (8376.29/8373.88) and daily SMA50/200 (8309.32/8179.21); thesis intact. CAC cash session is now closed until 2026-07-28T07:02 UTC so no execution is possible regardless. VIX has ticked up further to 19.43 (session +10.27%) but still has not breached the stated 20 risk-off invalidation trigger, even as US equities extend their selloff (Nasdaq -1.62% session, RSI 29.34 oversold; S&P -0.84% session, RSI 36.19) and oil is down sharply (-3.79% session, -7.4% 24h). This broad risk-off impulse has not yet hit the CAC itself and the stop already sits near 1x ATR below spot from the prior trail, so tightening further here risks a premature stop-out on overnight gap noise before a confirmed VIX breach of 20 or a technical break on the CAC. Keeping stop 8380 / target 8550 unchanged.

Price 8406.06 remains above the 8380 trailing stop set last cycle (0.95x 1h ATR of room) and above 1h SMA20/50 (8376.29/8373.88) and daily SMA50/200 (8309.32/8179.21), so the uptrend thesis is intact. VIX at 19.22 has actually eased slightly from the 19.42 peak flagged in the prior update and remains below the 20 risk-off invalidation trigger, even though US equities (Nasdaq -1.83% session, RSI 32.75; S&P -0.94% session, RSI 41.5) and oil (-3.75% session) are showing a broader risk-off impulse. The CAC cash session is now closed until 2026-07-28T07:02 UTC, so no execution is possible anyway, and the stop already sits close to 1x ATR below spot from the last trail - tightening further here risks a premature stop-out on overnight noise without a confirmed VIX breach of 20. Keeping stop 8380 / target 8550 unchanged.

VIX has spiked +10.2% intraday to 19.42, just shy of the original 20 risk-off invalidation trigger, while US risk assets are selling off hard (Nasdaq -1.75% session, RSI 28.3 oversold; S&P -0.89% session, RSI 39.9) and oil is down -3.36% session/-6.9% 24h — a broad risk-off impulse building that hasn't yet hit the CAC (still -0.43% session, price 8406 above 1h SMA20/50 ~8376/8374). Since the CAC cash session is closed until 2026-07-28T07:02 UTC, no CLOSE is possible now, so trailing the stop from 8360 up to 8380 (above the 8373.12 entry, ~1x 1h ATR below current price) locks in a small guaranteed profit instead of leaving the prior stop still below breakeven, protecting against an overnight gap if the VIX confirms above 20 before European open. Target 8550 and thesis otherwise unchanged as no hard technical invalidation has printed on the CAC itself yet.

VIX has spiked +13% intraday to 19.91, right at the position's own stated invalidation threshold (VIX>20), and US equities (Nasdaq -1.40% session, oversold RSI 28.5) plus crude (-2.86% session/-6.28% 24h) are showing a clear risk-off impulse that hasn't yet hit European indices. Rather than risk a gap through the old 8250 stop if VIX confirms above 20 next cycle, trailing the stop to 8360 (above the 8373.12 entry, ~2.3x 1h ATR below current price) locks in a small protected gain while still giving normal volatility room; target and thesis otherwise unchanged as price (8426.13) remains above 1h/daily SMAs and no hard invalidation has printed yet.

Thesis intact: price 8442.92 remains well above the 8373.12 entry and far clear of the 8250 stop (6.63x 1h ATR, 2.29% distance), holding above 1h SMA20/50 (8357.41/8368.95) and daily SMA50/200 (8300.95/8176.77). VIX at 17.75 stays well below the 20 risk-off trigger despite a marginal +0.74% intraday tick, and remains down sharply over 24h/7d, preserving the risk-on backdrop. 1h RSI at 65.49 shows continued but not extreme bullish momentum. Position is at +0.56R with risk bounded at 0.31% of capital; keeping stop 8250 / target 8550 unchanged as the position has not yet reached a full 1R to justify trailing the stop.

Thesis intact: price 8454.33 continues to extend above the 8373.12 entry, comfortably clear of the 8250 stop (6.8x 1h ATR, 2.42% distance) and above 1h SMA20/50 (8353.16/8367.17) and daily SMA50/200 (8300.95/8176.77). VIX 17.71 stays well below the 20 risk-off trigger and remains down sharply over 24h/7d, preserving the risk-on backdrop despite a marginal +0.51% intraday tick. RSI 1h at 68.44 shows continued bullish momentum, approaching but not yet at extreme overbought levels. Position is at +0.65R with risk bounded at 0.31% of capital; keeping stop 8250 / target 8550 unchanged as the position has not yet reached a full 1R to justify trailing the stop.

Thesis remains intact: price 8439.87 continues to extend well above the 8373 entry and the 8250 stop (6.18x 1h ATR, 2.25% distance), holding above 1h SMA20/50 (8347.59/8364.83) and daily SMA50/200 (8300.95/8176.77). VIX at 17.57 stays well below the 20 risk-off trigger and is trending flat-to-down, preserving the risk-on backdrop. 1h RSI at 66.8 shows continued bullish momentum without extreme exhaustion. Position is at +0.54R with risk still bounded at 0.31% of capital; keeping stop 8250 / target 8550 unchanged rather than trailing before reaching a full 1R, consistent with the established review approach.

Thesis intact: price 8431.78 continues to extend above the 8373 entry, well clear of the 8250 stop (5.7x 1h ATR, 2.16% distance) and above 1h SMA20/50 (8343.52/8362.42) and daily SMA50/200 (8300.95/8176.77). VIX 17.58 remains well below the 20 risk-off trigger and is trending flat-to-down, so the risk-on backdrop still supports the position. RSI 1h at 64.72 shows bullish momentum without extreme exhaustion; position is at +0.47R with risk bounded at 0.31% of capital. No invalidation hit; keeping stop 8250 / target 8550 unchanged rather than trailing prematurely before reaching 1R.

Thesis intact: VIX at 17.61 is well below the 20 risk-off trigger and trending down (-1.12% 1h, -5.06% 24h), signaling continued risk-on appetite. Price 8428.17 is now further above the 8250 stop (5.39x 1h ATR) and above 1h SMA20/50 (8339.97/8360.50) and daily SMA50/200 (8300.95/8176.77). RSI 1h at 64.69 shows bullish momentum without extreme overbought exhaustion. Position has moved to +0.44R with bounded risk at 0.31% of capital. No invalidation trigger hit; maintaining stop 8250 / target 8550.

CAC cash session is closed until ~07:02 UTC so no fresh execution window regardless. PnL near flat (-4.19), risk bounded at 0.31% of capital. No invalidation trigger hit; keeping stop 8250 / target 8550 unchanged.
