Retrospectives
| ticker | mfe | mae | reflection |
|---|---|---|---|
| MSFT S2 | +0.60% | -0.31% | Retrospective: The entry bought MSFT on news that was fundamentally an AMD catalyst — Microsoft was merely named as a customer/partner, so the "FRESH bullish" signal was misattributed to a secondary ticker where the news was arguably already priced in (or even mildly negative, since MSFT buying AMD chips isn't new information about MSFT's earnings power). The trade never developed (+0.60% max) and bled to a small loss, consistent with a non-event for MSFT. Improvement: Add a "primary subject" filter to the entry rule: only trade the ticker that is the main subject of the headline (here, AMD), or downgrade the verdict from FRESH to STALE/SECONDARY when the traded symbol appears only as a counterparty — secondary-mention tickers should require independent confirmation (e.g., price/volume reaction) before entry. |
📖 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 ≥ 60.
