🧭 Decisions
| strategy | ticker | action | side | rationale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S1 | AMZN | ● enter | ▼ short | verdict FRESH, direction bearish -> short AMZN (other: Surging AI-related corporate debt issuance by major tech firms is driving U.S. Treasury yields to multi-decade highs, raising financing costs and financial stability concerns.) |
| S2 | - | ○ skip | — | no counterparty in universe |
| S3 | NVDA | ○ skip | — | direction unclear for NVDA → close -0.51% |
| S4 | AMZN | ○ skip | — | overnight drift: short AMZN at close, exit next close (other: Surging AI-related corporate debt issuance by major tech firms is driving U.S. Treasury yields to multi-decade highs, raising financing costs and financial stability concerns.) [skipped at close: outranked — mat 65 short lost to mat 65 long (decision 10616) for S4 AMZN exiting 2026-08-17] |

Retrospectives
| ticker | mfe | mae | reflection |
|---|---|---|---|
| AMZN S1 | +0.76% | -0.37% | Signal: correct. The bearish call played out — AMZN fell ~0.76% from entry, and the trade ended profitable (+$6.06). Timing: fine. Price was only down -0.24% since prior close at decision time, so entry didn't chase an already-completed move. Exit: near-optimal. The realized gain (~0.76%) matches the best unrealized (+0.76%) almost exactly, meaning the exit captured essentially everything available while open. Dominant factor: a correct directional signal executed cleanly end-to-end — though the data here can't confirm whether the macro rationale (AI-debt/yields) was the actual driver of the move versus coincidence. |
📖 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.
