|---|---|---|---|
| GOOGL S1 | +3.12% | +0.12% | Signal: right. The bearish call worked — GOOGL fell ~3% after entry, and the trade never went meaningfully against the short (worst unrealized only +0.12%). Timing: mostly fine at decision time (stock was flat, -0.12% since prev close, so the move hadn't happened), though the fill at 354.63 was already ~0.8% below prev close, suggesting some slippage between decision and entry; the data here doesn't show why. Exit: excellent — the +21.92 P&L (~+3.09% on the short) captured nearly all of the +3.12% best unrealized. Dominant factor: a correct directional signal with a near-optimal exit; this trade executed about as well as the available move allowed. |
