Richie — Integration Sandbox
Throwaway note
Created by Claude to exercise the Obsidian connector. Safe to delete once you’ve eyeballed it.

Snapshot
Richie is running Strategy 1 — a delta-neutral perpetual funding capture play (long spot ETH + short ETH perp (1:1 notional) to collect funding) — in paper mode, building a clean validation sample.
Open threads
- Pick Strategy #2 for parallel paper mode (strict isolation from S1 accounting + virtual capital)
- Decide which higher-return strategy becomes the capital-growth engine
- Reposition the funding bot as yield-on-idle-capital, not the self-bootstrapping compounder
- Wire up Obsidian so notes live next to the code
Funding math (sketch)
Carry per cycle, ignoring fees and slippage:
def funding_pnl(notional_usd, funding_rate, cycles):
# funding_rate per cycle (e.g. 8h window); positive => shorts get paid
return notional_usd * funding_rate * cyclesTest log
Claude will append timestamped entries below.
A stable line to target for a block-level edit test.
