Retrospectives

tickermfemaereflection
TSLA S1+3.14%-0.47%

Signal: Correct — the bullish call played out; the trade closed +1.49% with minimal adverse excursion (worst -0.47%).

Timing: Some of the move had already occurred — the stock was +0.57% from prior close at decision time, and the fill at 323.36 was ~1.2% above prev close, so entry gave up a chunk of the early move. Whether the news itself was already priced in beyond that can't be settled from this data.

Exit (dominant factor): The exit captured roughly half of what was available — +1.49% realized vs. a peak unrealized of +3.14%. The signal worked; the exit left about 1.6 percentage points (~$16) on the table, making exit capture the weakest link on an otherwise clean trade.

📖 Glossary

  • S1 primary — trades the alert's primary ticker in the direction the article itself indicates; exits at the same day's close.
  • S2 counterparty — trades the inferred counterparty ticker (weakest signal, LLM-inferred sympathy); exits at the same day's close.
  • S3 peer — trades an inferred peer ticker (also LLM-inferred sympathy); exits at the same day's close.
  • S4 overnight — holds the primary ticker from today's close to the NEXT day's close.
  • Verdicts are decided top-to-bottom, first match wins; REPRICING is also the fallback when nothing else matches (2026-08-08 #220).
  • UNKNOWN — a needed price input (move since close or move in the last 30m) is missing.
  • PRICED — |move since previous close| ≥ 2.0%: already reflected in price.
  • REPRICING — |move in the last 30m| ≥ 0.5%: the tape is actively moving on it. Also covers a quieter move — |move since previous close| in [1.0, 2.0) with a quiet last-30m tape: still developing, not yet priced.
  • FRESH — |move since previous close| < 1.0%: a genuinely new move.
  • materiality — how market-moving the story was judged, 0-100 — alerts require materiality ≥ 60.
