Mother Superior — All Eight Modules Contributing, +14.02% in October
Mother is mothering.
Today, Sandstorm closed a standalone gold short after 85 minutes, adding 1.14% and bringing October’s live return to 14.02%.
All eight modules have now contributed positively. Most importantly, approximately 79% of the net profit came from standalone trades requiring no recovery additions. Dune Stalker alone completed six profitable trades without DCA.
The two completed recovery baskets each used just one additional position and closed with a positive combined result. Dusk Whisper added approximately 20.40 away from its original entry, while Mirage Veil waited for a 95.12 move in gold’s price before adding.
That shows two examples of spaced recovery entries rather than frequent additions. Mirage Veil’s recovery lasted several days and crossed a weekend, so holding time and floating exposure remain important.
The gap between balance growth and equity growth shows why closed profits are only part of the picture. Both recovery baskets eventually closed profitably, but their floating losses still mattered while they were open.
An encouraging early live record: contributions from every module, predominantly standalone winners, and two completed recovery baskets. I’ll keep documenting execution, exposure and floating drawdown as the sample grows.
