THE DESK

A self-improving news-to-trade loop, run on a paper account only.

Every 5 minutes it reads the news feed across a 10-stock and 5-crypto watchlist.
It refuses any trade unless volume and price flow agree with the story (relative volume ≥ 1.3×).
A 22-catalyst taxonomy scores and sizes each idea against hard caps: 1% risk per trade, max 3 positions, 20% notional cap, a daily-loss halt.
Exits are written before entry. Every decision, fill, slippage and fee is journaled to disk.
Each night a bounded "autopsy" may rewrite one rule, within limits, and records why.

Built to test the viral "I gave an AI $1,000" architecture honestly. It runs on paper money. Nothing here is a recommendation and no performance is claimed.
