Retrospectives

tickermfemaereflection
TSLA S1-1.25%-4.54%

Signal (dominant factor): The bullish call was simply wrong — the position never went positive (best unrealized was -1.25%), so this wasn't a timing or exit problem masking a good read; the direction failed outright.

Timing: The move had partly happened — entry at 385.31 was ~1.95% above prev close versus +1.09% known at decision time, so the fill chased an already-extended price, worsening the loss but not causing it.

Exit: The -3.25% realized loss sits between the best (-1.25%) and worst (-4.54%) unrealized, so the exit was middling — it avoided the trough but gave back most of what little was recoverable; the data doesn't show whether the exit rule could realistically have caught the -1.25% point.

📖 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.
