What Makes This Trade Great: MNTS and the Power of Re-Entry

One of the biggest mistakes traders make is assuming that the first alert is the only opportunity. Today’s example in MNTS is a perfect reminder of why re-entry matters—and why patience pays. To Subscribe to Trade Ideas:

Our AI flagged MNTS at $12.80. If you jumped in immediately and followed your stop discipline, you likely got stopped out when price pulled back to around $12.60. And that’s where many traders mentally check out.
But this is exactly where experienced traders lean in.
Instead of chasing the initial alert, I always encourage traders to watch for the hammer and the re-entry setup. In this case, price pulled back roughly halfway between the original entry and the stop. That re-entry alert gave traders a second, cleaner opportunity—before any real pullback had even developed.
From that $12.60 re-entry, MNTS ran to $13.91 almost immediately. Realistically, most traders would have taken some profits along the way—and that’s smart risk management. But for those who held a core position, the move didn’t stop there. MNTS eventually pushed as high as $14.80.
Yes, the stock has since become erratic and pulled back, but that doesn’t change the lesson.
👉 The best trades don’t always come from the first signal.
👉 Re-entries often offer better risk, better structure, and better psychology.
If you’re getting stopped out too often, it’s not always the strategy—it’s the timing. Let the trade come back to you. Use the re-entry. Your P&L will thank you.
