Retrospectives

tickermfemaereflection
NVDA S1+0.70%-0.37%

Signal: Partially validated — the short did move favorably up to +0.70% unrealized, though the stock was already down 1.19% from the prior close at entry, so some of the anticipated repricing may have preceded the fill; the data can't fully settle how much.

Exit: This is the dominant factor. The trade was closed not on its own merits but because it was netted out by an outranking long-NVDA decision, and the exit at 223.61 landed essentially at the worst unrealized point (-0.37%), surrendering the entire +0.70% that was available.

Bluntly: The forced early close from signal-conflict netting turned a briefly profitable short into a loss — exit mechanics, not the bearish thesis, drove the outcome.

📖 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.
