Signal: wrong. The bullish call on the TSMC/Arm news didn't materialize — the stock never gained more than +0.16% while the trade was open and drifted lower, so the predicted direction simply failed over the holding period. Timing: the data doesn't show a prior run-up (price was slightly down at decision time, and the fill at 410.75 was well below the 418.90 prev close), so this wasn't a case of chasing a move that already happened — if anything the gap between decision-time price and fill suggests slippage/deterioration before entry, though the data here can't fully settle that. Exit: acceptable. The realized loss of -0.31% sits between the best (+0.16%) and worst (-1.33%) unrealized, so the exit gave up little of what was available — the dominant factor is a bad directional signal, not exit execution.

S2 counterparty — trades the inferred counterparty ticker (weakest signal, LLM-inferred sympathy); exits at the same 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.
