Happy New Year, everyone.

I want to talk about a trade from today that may not look exciting at first glance, but it’s a perfect example of how discipline and structure can create opportunity, even on slower days. To Subscribe to Trade Ideas:

The stock is LUNR.

We had our initial alert at $17.35. You’ll see the blue arrow on the chart marking that entry. Price moved up to about $17.59, then pulled back and hit the stop at $16.83.

That happens. No big deal.

What matters is what came next.

Instead of walking away from the trade idea, we had a re-entry alert, which is calculated halfway between the original alert price and the stop. In this case, that re-entry came in at $17.09.

So whether you:

  • missed the original entry, or
  • took the trade and got stopped out

you still had a clean second chance.

From $17.09, LUNR moved up to $17.51 before pulling back at all. A nice, controlled move.

But LUNR wasn’t done yet.

If you missed that re-entry, the stock offered another opportunity around $17.10. From there, it pushed all the way up to $17.86 before pulling back.

Multiple entries. Same setup. Same idea.

The Takeaway

This trade is a great reminder that:

  • A stop-out doesn’t mean the trade idea is wrong
  • Re-entries can offer lower-risk opportunities
  • Even slow days can produce solid trades if you stay patient

LUNR gave us several chances to get it right, and that’s exactly what makes this trade great.
