PAGE is also a candidate but already held — no need to add. Buying STJ (best score, clean uptrend dip) and RMV (extreme oversold dislocation) as new mean-reversion entries at fixed $3000 size. Zero-qty positions (ETSY, LPX, LSS, TMV) are ignored as they have no active exposure. Post-trade portfolio will have ~10 active positions within leverage limits."

PAGE is also a candidate but already held — no need to add. Buying STJ (best score, clean uptrend dip) and RMV (extreme oversold dislocation) as new mean-reversion entries at fixed $3000 size. Zero-qty positions (ETSY, LPX, LSS, TMV) are ignored as they have no active exposure. Post-trade portfolio will have ~10 active positions within leverage limits."
