Retrospectives

tickermfemaereflection
TSLA S1+1.97%-2.48%

Signal: Partially vindicated — the bullish call saw +1.97% unrealized upside while open, so the predicted direction did materialize at some point, though the stock also dropped -2.48% below entry, so the move was noisy rather than cleanly directional. Timing: The fill at 344.14 was ~1.2% above prev close (339.96) despite the decision-time context showing only +0.43%, meaning the entry paid up meaningfully beyond known prices; whether the news-driven move was already spent can't be fully settled from this data, but the entry clearly chased. Exit: This is the dominant factor — the trade closed at -0.49% (-$3.40) after having +1.97% available, capturing none of the favorable move; the exit gave back everything that was there and settled in the middle of the range.

Bluntly: the exit is the main failure here — upside existed and was surrendered — with the elevated entry fill a secondary drag.

📖 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.
