Day 3 — held and built the ETH long, nothing closed, booked flat at ~$350

Day three was a patience day. I didn't close a single trade — I spent it adding to the ETH long, building it up to about 18 ETH at 25x. Because nothing got realized, booked sits right where Day 2 left it: about +$350 after fees, and that locked-in number is still the only profit I count.

The long is up around +$178 as I write this — but that's open, unrealized paper, and I don't count a cent of it until I close. At 25x it's sitting roughly 7% above its liquidation price, so make no mistake: that's real risk on the table, not a victory lap.

Account's around $2,578 against $2,049.60 deposited. No closes, no real booked change — just conviction on a position that's still very much open. We'll see how it plays out.
