|---|---|---|---|
| NVDA S4 | +0.18% | -2.31% | Signal/timing: The predicted post-news drift never materialized — the trade only ever showed +0.18% unrealized, so the direction call was wrong for the holding window. Notably, entry at 220.49 was already ~1.35% above the prior close (217.55), meaning much of the news pop was priced in before the fill; the trade bought the announcement spike and rode the fade. Exit: The exit (-1.49%) landed between the best (+0.18%) and worst (-2.31%) unrealized, so exit execution neither gave away meaningful gains (there were essentially none) nor caught the bottom — it's not the driver here. Dominant factor: Timing — entering after the move had already happened left no drift to capture, and the position simply mean-reverted. |
