## Morning Activities & Quant Engine Deployment
- **Network & Backups:** Resolved minor WhatsApp gateway connectivity issues. Located the overnight `hornet_backup` (5.5GB) and created a fresh full workspace backup (`Ava_backup_2026-03-23_v1.tar.gz`, 9.5GB) in `~/openclaw_backups/`.
- **Night Shift Review:** Confirmed the successful staging of `freqtrade`, `ib_insync`, and `ComfyUI` inside isolated Python virtual environments with custom OpenClaw `SKILL.md` definitions.
- **IB Gateway Bridge:** Successfully established a stable `ib_insync` API connection to Interactive Brokers Paper Trading across the WSL boundary (Port 4002) after resolving Windows Firewall blocks and Trusted IP configurations. Verified historical data extraction with SPY.
- **Asset-Agnostic Quant Strategy (RSI-2):**
  - **Basket Selection:** "The Board" subagent selected an 8-symbol non-crypto basket optimized for mean reversion liquidity: SPY, QQQ, XLF, GLD, AAPL, MSFT, JNJ, BRK B.
  - **Live Daemon:** Wrote `quant_daemon.py` to continuously evaluate the basket against the RSI-2 strategy (Price > 200 SMA, RSI(2) < 10). Mark granted full authorization for the daemon to autonomously execute ~$10,000 Market-On-Close (MOC) BUY orders on detected setups.
  - **Automation:** Scheduled a permanent OpenClaw cron job to trigger the daemon daily at 2:45 PM CST (15 minutes before market close).
- **Shadow Trading Dashboard (HQ Integration):** 
  - Built a custom real-time HTML/JS dashboard tracking the 8-symbol basket prices and account balances via Chart.js.
  - Wrote `live_data_feed.py` to synchronously poll IBKR and push JSON state every 5 seconds.
  - Integrated the dashboard directly into the `aizen247.com` HQ web server (`quant_hub/`), adding a "Quant Engine" menu link across the site.
