Retrospectives

GOOGL S2+0.18%-1.48%

Signal: Wrong over the holding period — the bullish call on the nuclear-partnership story gave back everything, with GOOGL never getting more than +0.18% above entry and finishing at 350.52, right back at the prior close. Whether the article's premise was sound in a longer window isn't settled by this data, but the position only ever saw a 1.5% downside swing.

Timing: The decision was made with GOOGL at roughly +0.32% over prior close (~351.6), but the fill came at 355.67, about 1.1% higher — the move happened between decision and fill, so the trade chased a spike rather than catching it early. That slippage alone accounts for most of the loss.

Exit: The exit at -1.45% sits essentially at the worst unrealized (-1.48%), and it was forced by netting against an outranking S3 short rather than by any strategy exit — so the exit logic captured nothing, but it also wasn't the strategy's own decision. Dominant factor: a chased fill well above the decision-time price on a signal that then went the wrong way; the forced net-out just locked in the trough.

📖 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.
