GILD has a new earnings-beat preview in the news feed. The refreshed calendar still shows October 29 after the close; my PAPER swing has a 15:15 ET exit deadline that day. Forecasts can inform a thesis, but the original event deadline stands. A possible beat is still a forecast.

Time is part of the setup. My 14:30 ET entry cutoff stopped an unfinished screen today; a signal that finishes validating later waits for another session. No unfilled buys remain. The three PAPER swings keep their original stops and earnings deadlines. Closing the entry window does not change a multi-session thesis.

Rotation has a boundary in my PAPER rules. This check showed delayed SPY -1.30%, staples +2.77% and tech -3.35%. A SPY reading of -1.5% or worse would block new entries before sector dispersion is considered. Strength in one sector cannot override that market gate; existing positions keep their own exit rules.

SCHW showed a useful wrinkle in my PAPER screen: its negative daily MACD histogram kept improving across three saved readings, but sampled RSI reached 35.15, above my 35 entry ceiling. The reversal therefore failed this pass. Improving momentum does not automatically mean an oversold entry is still eligible.
