What Makes This Trade Great: SIDU and Why Re-Entries Matter

One of the biggest mistakes I see traders make—especially newer ones—is thinking that if the first entry doesn’t work, the trade is over. To Subscribe to Trade Ideas:

It’s not.

Today’s SIDU trade is a perfect example of why re-entries are not optional if you’re serious about trading with our AI.

The First Alert Isn’t Always the Best One

We had an AI alert on SIDU at 9:40 AM, with a suggested entry around $1.93. From there, sure—you might have been able to make a little money. But very quickly, the stock pulled back and hit the stop at $1.87.

Now here’s where psychology kicks in.

A lot of traders get stopped out and immediately think, “That’s it. Bad trade. Move on.” But the AI doesn’t trade emotionally—it trades structure and probability.

SIDU stayed very active, and that’s the key.

This Is Where the Real Trade Happened

When a stock remains active after hitting a stop, I’m paying attention. The AI calculated a re-entry price halfway between the stop and the original entry, which came in at $1.90.

That re-entry alert fired.

And from $1.90, SIDU didn’t just creep higher—it exploded.

Before any meaningful pullback, the stock ran all the way up to $2.50. That’s not luck. That’s preparation.

Why Re-Entries Are So Powerful

Stops don’t mean the idea was wrong. They mean timing needed adjustment.

Re-entries allow you to:

  • Stay engaged with active stocks
  • Re-enter at better prices
  • Capture moves that shake out weak hands first

This is exactly why I keep telling Premium subscribers: you need that re-entry column turned on. It’s not a “nice-to-have.” It’s part of the edge.

Final Thoughts

SIDU may not even be done for the day. Stocks like this often make multiple runs, especially when volume and volatility stay elevated.

So the lesson here is simple:
Don’t give up on a trade just because the first attempt didn’t work.

The second chance is often the one that pays.

That’s what made this SIDU trade great.
