Retrospectives

tickermfemaereflection
AMD S3+1.64%+0.13%

Signal: Correct — the bearish call worked; the position was never meaningfully underwater (worst unrealized +0.13%).

Timing: Fine at decision time (AMD only -0.12% off prior close, so the move hadn't been spent), though note the fill at 473.11 sits ~1.6% above the stated prev close of 465.58 — that gap between decision-time context and fill isn't explained by the data here.

Exit (dominant factor): The exit is the weak link — the trade banked +0.40% against a best unrealized of +1.64%, capturing only about a quarter of the favorable move that was available while open.

📖 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 ≥ 70.
