Retrospectives

tickermfemaereflection
AVGO S1+0.81%-0.32%

Signal: Right — AVGO rose after entry and the trade closed green (+0.27%), consistent with the bullish partnership call.

Timing: Not stale on the evidence here — at decision time the stock was only +0.40% on the day and the fill (356.24) was essentially at that level, so most of the upside (+0.81% peak) came after entry; whether the $92B news was already days old and priced in can't be determined from this data.

Exit (dominant factor): The exit at 357.20 captured roughly a third of the best unrealized gain (+0.27% vs +0.81%) with only −0.32% drawdown ever seen; the journal doesn't say what triggered the exit or how long the position was held, so why it gave back most of the peak is unresolved.

AVGO S4+0.27%-4.03%

Signal was wrong — that's the dominant factor. The rationale predicted an upward overnight drift on the Broadcom/Anthropic/OpenAI partnership headline, but AVGO went from 357.32 to 346.07 (−3.15%), and the best unrealized gain while open was only +0.27%, so there was essentially never a favorable move to capture. Timing wasn't the issue in the "move already happened" sense: at decision time the stock was only +0.40% above the prior close (354.73), though the fill at 357.32 was another ~0.33% higher than the decision-time price, a minor adverse entry slip. Exit was mechanical (next close) and landed at −3.15% versus a worst of −4.03% — it neither gave up meaningful available upside (there was none) nor captured the absolute bottom, so the loss is attributable almost entirely to the direction call rather than execution.

📖 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.
