| 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. |
