June 14th Swing Watch List
$HBM – Long entry is over 5.20, stop 5.00. Target will be 6.00, then 6.25.
$MO – On swing watch for a pull back entry and a low IV debit spread. Nice STRONG chart with clean EMA pullbacks offering good entry. Will look to put on a Jul16 62.5/67.5 call spread for around 2.50 or better.
$VOD – Gap fill candidate with super high IV. Looking for a safe bull put spread here as long as support holds. Small risk, small reward. Jul16 28/30 bull put spread.
$FOSL – After a few days of selling and pressure in the market, look for this breakdown to new lows if the 26.42 area falls. Will look to enter there, and target the 25.00 area.
