| ticker | mfe | mae | reflection |
|---|---|---|---|
| NVDA S1 | +0.04% | -2.12% | Signal: wrong. After entry NVDA never moved meaningfully in the predicted direction (best unrealized just +0.04%) and fell steadily, so the bullish repricing call didn't play out over the holding period. Timing: partially stale — the stock was already +1.12% on the day at decision time and the fill at 221.15 was another ~1.6% above prev close, suggesting the news-driven pop was largely priced in by entry; whether more upside existed later isn't determinable from this data. Exit: near the floor — the -1.52% realized loss sits close to the -2.12% worst unrealized, with essentially no profit ever available to capture, so the dominant factor is the failed signal (chasing an already-run news move), not exit execution. |
| AMD S3 | +0.45% | -2.11% | Signal: wrong. The bearish call on AMD didn't play out — the stock rose ~1.9% against the short (466.03 → 474.71), and the rationale itself is shaky: it describes an Nvidia–Intel partnership, with the bearish read-through to AMD left implicit and untested. Timing: at decision time AMD was only +0.76% on the day and flat over the last 30 minutes, so this doesn't look like chasing an already-completed move; the data here doesn't show a big prior spike. Exit: near worst-case. The trade was briefly +0.45% but was closed at -1.86%, close to the -2.11% max drawdown — the exit surrendered essentially everything available. Dominant factor is the signal being simply wrong-direction, with the exit compounding it by realizing near the worst of the move. |
