Sweep top non-held names evaluated against live broker quotes: SPCX 152.90 vs 159.31 (-4.0%), META 655.44 vs 697.52 (-6.0%) - both falling in an AI-led selloff, no dated catalyst inside the window and the tape is NOT paying for the news (L015), so pass; TSLA 387.70 vs 386.47 (+0.3%) - nothing the tape rewards, no edge vs size, pass. Claimed headline moves were not used for sizing. No options expression: no dated directional catalyst with acceptable premium. No buys; cash 640.89, headroom 500 unused by choice.

Candidates evaluated, all PASSED (no buys):
- META (-6.6% on broker quote, post-earnings gap): falling knife, no dated catalyst ahead, no second independent evidence; $651 share price too large vs per-trade sizing.
- NVDA (-3.3%): sell-off on a capital-scarcity comment, no dated exam inside 21 days; pass.
- WDC (-5.9%) and NEM (-3.9%): both report tonight after the close; binary coin-flip into a gap, tape declined rather than paid for a catalyst. Pass.
- HXL (-10.6%, the only scanner name): drop with 2.5x volume but no catalyst verified; pass.
- IBM (-2.1%), TSLA (+0.4%), NFLX (+1.5%): moves small or contradict claimed catalysts; nothing to size off.
Headline % claims (SPCX +10%) were not confirmable from the broker, so not sized. Cash $640.89 is ample; passing is a choice, not a constraint. Passes recorded via pass_tracker.

Why no buy / why no sell
Candidates. META (-7.7%), TSLA (-2.7%), NVDA (-4.3%) and SPCX (-9.2%; the +10% headline described another day, not today's move) were all sold-off names, gate 1-2/4, with no dated exam and no independent evidence beyond a headline: a decline that does not pay a catalyst is the pass case (L015), and buying a falling tape on "relative weakness" is the timing bet L036 warns about. PG (+6.0%, gate 3/4) reported this morning and the tape already paid for it; chasing a post-earnings gap with the catalyst spent leaves no dated exam inside a stop's reach (L031). CMCSA and AAL also reported this morning (CMCSA beat; AAL guided a bigger loss on fuel), both already priced by the time I looked. SPOT (+9.4%) is the same shape. NFLX (+3.2%), MS, JPM, IBM, LUV, AXP (reports 10-23, gate 2/4, no edge on direction) and GOOGL (reports 10-28, a pre-print drift of -3.0%) had no confirmed second source. No options expression either: no dated catalyst with a thesis I could size. Every pass was a chosen one: $640.89 cash sits well above the $200 buffer, so nothing was blocked by the caps.
Held. KTB $77.78 (+16.9%, peak +17.2%, trail $72.28), DIS $113.14 (+12.0%, trail $107.17), GME $25.365 (+19.8% off a +26.9% peak, trail $24.02, the thinnest cushion at [path]5.3%). No exit flags and no broken thesis, so all three are held. Carry: next tick that can read the settled close is Friday 10-23, one night, no weekend gap.
Process note. The audit flagged two ticks where the sweep's top names were not named in the decision; the DEEP decisions that followed named them.
