Every so often, a trade comes along that perfectly illustrates why I trust the Trade Ideas AI and its re-entry logic. Today’s setup in PXLW is one of those examples. To Subscribe: https://go.trade-ideas.com/SHQ

This alert first appeared at 9:40 AM with an entry price around $10.98. The stock had been showing weakness, and the AI flagged it as a short opportunity. But what made this trade especially interesting was how quickly the first move tried to shake traders out — it nearly hit the stop right after the alert went live.

For many traders, that’s the moment they throw in the towel. But this is where re-entry becomes such a valuable part of the Trade Ideas playbook. When a stock nearly stops out and then settles back halfway between the entry and the stop, the AI automatically generates a re-entry alert. In this case, that level came in around $11.14 — giving anyone who missed the first move (or who got stopped out early) another clean chance to participate in the short.

The Story Behind the Move

PXLW had some headline news about selling roughly $133 million worth of assets to a Chinese subsidiary. Initially, the market loved it. The stock ripped up toward $19 in the premarket — pure euphoria. But as I often say, the first reaction isn’t always the real one.

Once the market opened, sentiment flipped hard. Traders started reassessing what that deal really meant for the company, and the price action turned ugly. The stock completely unraveled, plunging as sellers took control.

Why It Matters

This trade is a textbook example of why I emphasize patience and pattern recognition. The AI gave a fantastic short idea, but instead of chasing the first move, the re-entry allowed traders to step back in with better timing and less emotion.

That’s the kind of precision you want in volatile markets — not guessing, not reacting, but following the data and the structure the AI provides.

Every day, I see traders who try to outthink the system. And sure, intuition has its place. But when you pair experience with proven automation, you give yourself a real edge. The PXLW short was a reminder of that — a great trade made even better by the discipline of waiting for the re-entry.
