Retrospectives

tickermfemaereflection
GOOGL S1+1.79%+0.01%

Signal: correct. The bullish call played out — the trade never went underwater (worst unrealized +0.01%) and closed up ~1.0%. Timing: fine — the pre-entry move was small (+0.44% from prior close), and the entry actually filled below the prior close, so the move hadn't already been consumed. Exit: partial capture — +$6.86 (~+1.0%) against a best unrealized of +1.79%, so the exit left roughly 40% of the available move on the table, though it captured a solid majority.

Dominant factor: a correct signal cleanly executed; the only weakness is the exit taking about half the peak gain. Whether the +1.79% peak was realistically capturable at exit time isn't determinable from this data.

📖 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.
