Retrospectives

ticker	mfe	mae	reflection
GOOGL S2	-0.06%	-1.81%	Entry vs. outcome: The rationale was weak second-order logic — an NVIDIA product ramp with Google merely named as one of several customers is not a fresh, GOOGL-specific catalyst, and the trade behaved accordingly: it never went positive (best +/-0.06%) and bled to a -1.81% drawdown before exiting at -12.52 USD. The "FRESH" verdict was applied to news about a different company, so the signal-to-ticker mapping failed, not the timing. Concrete improvement: Require the traded ticker to be the primary subject of the catalyst (e.g., ticker appears in headline or is the product's owner), or downgrade spillover/customer mentions to a lower-conviction verdict tier that either skips the trade or halves position size. A simple rule — "if catalyst company ≠ traded company, verdict caps at STALE/NO-TRADE" — would have filtered this entry entirely.

📖 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 ≥ 60.
