What Makes This Trade Great: A Second-Chance Win on CREG
What Makes This Trade Great: A Second-Chance Win on CREG
Aug 7, 2025
Hey traders,
Barrie Einarson here from Trade Ideas, and today I want to walk you through a classic example of why you don’t always have to catch the first move to land a winning trade. Let’s talk about CREG—a trade that hit the stop… but still turned into a solid opportunity. To Subscribe: https://go.trade-ideas.com/SHQ

The First Alert: Nothing Special?
At 2:10 PM, our AI gave us an alert on CREG with an entry at $2.10. The stock initially popped up to $2.20, but let’s be honest—it wasn’t anything to write home about. Then came the pullback… and the stop was hit at $2.07.
Now, for most traders, that would’ve been the end of the story. But not for those using one of my favorite features in the Trade Ideas platform.
The Reentry Edge: Halfway Back Is Half the Battle
If you’ve been watching my videos or trading with me for a while, you know this feature: when a stock hits the stop, and then comes halfway back between the original entry and the stop, the AI gives you a sound alert.
This is key.
That halfway point for CREG was $2.085—and once the stock bounced back up to that level, the platform let us know. This is where the magic happens for patient traders.
A lot of people I know wait specifically for these reentry alerts rather than jumping in on the first signal. It helps filter out the noise and can often lead to cleaner, more confident setups.
The Second Shot: Riding the Bounce
In CREG’s case, that reentry worked beautifully. After the bounce from $2.07, the stock surged to $2.32 before showing any signs of pulling back again.
If it were me—and it was—I’d be taking partial profits around there, locking in gains and reducing risk. But if you held your position, you got rewarded even more, as the stock continued to climb.
Final Thoughts: Trade Smarter, Not Harder
This CREG setup is a great reminder:
✅ You don’t need to nail every first entry.
✅ Smart tools like the reentry alert can give you a second chance—without the FOMO.
✅ Patience and precision beat chasing and guessing.
Remember, our AI is powerful, but what really makes a trade great is how you use the tools to stay flexible, disciplined, and alert to opportunities—even after a stop is hit.
Until next time,
Barrie Einarson
