Retrospectives

ticker	mfe	mae	reflection
AMZN S1	+0.28%	-0.23%	Signal: Effectively unconfirmed — after entry AMZN traded in a ±0.25% band (+0.28% / -0.23%), so the "bullish repricing" call neither played out nor clearly failed; there was simply no further move to capture. Timing: The move had already happened — the stock was +1.35% over the prior close at the decision point and the last 30 minutes were already slightly negative, so the entry at 249.88 bought the top of the news pop. Exit: The -0.23% exit landed exactly at the worst unrealized level, so the exit captured the bottom of a tiny range rather than the +0.28% that was briefly available; the data doesn't say whether this was a stop or a timed close. Dominant factor: timing — the deal headline was priced in before the fill, leaving nothing for the long thesis to earn, and the exit then gave up what little range existed.
AMZN S4	+1.18%	-1.26%	Signal: Wrong at the horizon traded — the predicted overnight-drift continuation didn't hold; AMZN closed the next day at 247.97, -0.55% from entry, though it did touch +1.18% at some point while open, so the direction was briefly right before fading. Timing: The news-day move had already happened by entry — the stock was up +1.35% on the day at decision time and the fill at 249.35 was +1.14% over prev close, so the trade bought the pop rather than anticipating it; the next-day close landed between prev close and entry, consistent with the partnership headline being priced in. Exit: Mechanical next-close exit captured roughly the midpoint of the +1.18% / -1.26% range; the data doesn't show when the high printed, so whether a more favorable exit was realistically available is not settled here. Dominant factor: the entry chased an already-made move, and the headline-driven drift thesis failed to extend beyond that.

AMZN S1

+0.28%

AMZN S4

+1.18%

-1.26%

Signal: Wrong at the horizon traded — the predicted overnight-drift continuation didn't hold; AMZN closed the next day at 247.97, -0.55% from entry, though it did touch +1.18% at some point while open, so the direction was briefly right before fading.

Timing: The news-day move had already happened by entry — the stock was up +1.35% on the day at decision time and the fill at 249.35 was +1.14% over prev close, so the trade bought the pop rather than anticipating it; the next-day close landed between prev close and entry, consistent with the partnership headline being priced in.

📖 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.
