Hey everyone,
Barrie Einarson here from Trade Ideas with another installment of What Makes This Trade Great. Let’s dive into a sneaky little short today—BBLG.

An Unusual Short, But a Beautiful One

I don’t usually short really cheap stocks. Honestly, I have a bit of a phobia about it. But today, our AI made a call that was just too good to ignore. It flagged BBLG for a short at $1.02, and it ended up being an absolute gem.

Here’s the setup:
In the pre-market, BBLG ran wild—from $0.77 all the way up to $1.10. A massive move. Then, at $1.02, our AI said, “enough is enough,” and issued the short signal. Even though the stock pushed a little higher after the alert, the stop was set at $1.27, and that level never came into play.

The Follow-Through Was Golden

BBLG reversed beautifully. It fell right back to where it started—$0.72—giving us a 22% gain on a low-float, high-volatility name. You don’t often see a short work out that cleanly on such a cheap stock, but when AI sees the exhaustion, you trust the signal.

This trade proves a few things:

• Parabolic moves often reverse just as fast
• AI has no bias—it just follows the data
• Sometimes you have to step outside your comfort zone to capture the best setups

Final Thoughts

Not every trade is textbook. But this one? This was a masterclass in identifying blow-off tops and trusting the tech. BBLG might have been cheap, but that short was rich with opportunity.

See you on the next one,
