Retrospectives

tickermfemaereflection
AVGO S1+0.30%-2.39%

Signal (dominant factor): The bullish call was simply wrong — despite the partnership news, AVGO fell ~2% from entry, so the predicted direction did not materialize.

Timing: The stock was only +0.52% off prior close at decision time (entry at 431.0 vs. 427.76 close, ~+0.76%), so this wasn't a case of chasing an already-completed move; the small pre-entry drift is not the story.

Exit: Best unrealized was just +0.30%, so there was essentially nothing to capture on the upside; the exit at -2.04% was near the trough (-2.39% worst), meaning the exit gave back little relative to what the trade offered — the loss reflects the bad signal, not poor exit execution.

📖 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.
