Today’s ticker: CDLR

AI Suggested a Long… But the Market Had Other Plans

Early in the session, the AI flagged CDLR for a long entry. Now, as I always remind traders, the AI isn’t right 100% of the time — no system is.

But here’s the key:
Because CDLR was highlighted, it was already on my radar.

Fast-forward to 9:51 AM, CDLR popped up again on my Gap Continuation / Reversal scan with an alert at 19.20.

But instead of continuing up…

🚫 It failed. Hard.

The long idea completely broke down.

Failure = Opportunity

This is where experience and preparation intersect.

Instead of forcing the long, I watched how the stock reacted.
And when it cracked and started reversing, that was the real setup.

From the alert time, CDLR dropped all the way to $17 — a clean, powerful move for anyone watching the reversal.

That’s exactly how I trade with the AI:

✔️ Not blindly
✔️ Not emotionally
✔️ But with awareness and adaptability

AI Isn’t Perfect — But It’s Invaluable

Even when the direction isn’t correct, the AI still does its job:

🔍 It surfaces the right stocks
🧭 It guides your attention
🔥 It sets up opportunities — long or short

The CDLR move is a textbook example of why I trust the AI to guide my watchlist every morning.

Because sometimes the best trade isn’t the one the AI calls…

…it’s the one you recognize because the AI showed you where to look.
