Retrospectives
| ticker | mfe | mae | reflection |
|---|---|---|---|
| MU S4 | +2.59% | -0.55% | Signal: Right — the long-overnight-drift call was directionally correct; the stock rose after entry. Timing: Partly compromised at the fill. Price context showed only +0.11% since prev close (1071.52), but the entry filled at 1079.42 (~+0.74% above prev close), so roughly 0.6% of the move occurred between decision and fill — the data here doesn't show whether that was a gap or slippage, only that it happened. Exit (dominant factor): The trade captured +0.36% against a best unrealized of +2.59% — the mechanical next-close exit gave back the large majority of the available move, making exit capture, not signal quality, the bluntly dominant driver of the modest P&L. |
📖 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.
