The core short thesis is intact: JPM remains below all key moving averages, 1d momentum has deepened (MACD histogram -1.239, RSI 43.76 falling), regime has drifted from neutral to bearish, and XLF continues to confirm sector weakness with JPM underperforming. Price is pinned at the $350.14 resistance-flip only ~2% above the $343.00 target with the $357.50 stop untouched, so the risk/reward and path remain valid.
No model argued for EXIT.

▼ Click to expandThe position has only made 22.6% progress toward target after 5 of 15 days, with volume remaining depressed (percentile 12) suggesting lack of conviction in the breakdown. The FOMC meeting tomorrow is a binary event that could trigger a sharp reversal in bank stocks. The 30-minute RSI at 40.07 near the lower Bollinger band signals short-term exhaustion, and a bounce that reclaims $350.14 would invalidate the breakdown thesis entirely.
