Retrospectives
| ticker | mfe | mae | reflection |
|---|---|---|---|
| MU S1 | +1.34% | -1.25% | Signal: Ambiguous — price did rise as much as +1.34% while open, so the bullish call wasn't flatly wrong intraday, but the data here can't settle whether the "repricing" thesis was valid beyond this short window since the trade closed at a loss. Timing: Entry came after a +1.22% pop from the prior close (fill 931.81 vs. prev close 924.03), so a meaningful chunk of the anticipated move had already occurred before entry. Exit: The exit gave back everything — realized -0.48% versus a best unrealized of +1.34%, ending closer to the worst (-1.25%) than the best. The dominant factor is the exit: available upside of over 1% was left uncaptured, turning a briefly winning position into a loss, compounded by entering into an already-extended move. |
📖 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.
