Retrospectives

tickermfemaereflection
AMD S1+2.82%+0.55%

Signal: Right — bullish call, and the trade never went underwater (worst unrealized was still +0.55%), so the direction was cleanly correct. Timing: Reasonable — entry filled ~1% above prev close (vs +0.71% at decision), so a modest chase, but the move clearly hadn't finished since price ran another +2.82% after entry. Exit: This is the dominant factor — the exit captured +1.06% (+$10.56) out of a peak +2.82% available, leaving roughly two-thirds of the observed upside on the table. Whether the exit was forced by a rule or a reversal after the peak isn't shown in this data, but the gap between realized and best unrealized is the standout fact.

📖 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.
