Retrospectives

ticker	mfe	mae	reflection
AMD S1	-0.05%	-0.44%	The bullish signal never paid off during the holding period: after entering nearly 2% above the prior close, the position never went positive (best unrealized was -0.05%), suggesting the news-driven move had largely happened before entry — timing is the dominant factor. The exit at -0.22% sat mid-range between best (-0.05%) and worst (-0.44%) unrealized, so the exit neither cost nor saved much; the whole trade traded in a tight negative band. Whether the bullish thesis was right on a longer horizon can't be settled from this data — only that no upside was available between entry and exit.

📖 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.
