60-day outcome

60-day idiosyncratic −43%

Flow signature

🐜 mostly aggregated. This describes the shape of the order flow — how the accumulation was assembled — not its intent and not its likely outcome.

What happened

Accumulation into Figma's first public earnings and an early lockup unlock.

The catalyst: First post-IPO print: decelerating guidance + lockup.

The outcome: 60-day idiosyncratic −43% — a forward idiosyncratic move (beta-stripped vs SPY) over a mature 60-day window. The raw price shown on the chart reached −48%; the two differ because the outcome strips out the market’s beta.

Read this honestly

Informed, not privileged

The tape showed accumulation. It cannot prove who traded, what they knew, or why.

Direction was not predicted

IAS called that a large move was coming — magnitude, never which way. Two cases in this library resolved UP; that is the proof.

Ranked by magnitude

The edge is the magnitude estimate — P(large move) — not raw IAS. A high IAS with a low magnitude estimate is unusual but not notable for movement.

Long volatility, not long puts

These names often spike the other way first. The historical behavior looks like long volatility, not a directional put position.
