PENN - Momentum BreakoutPENN has been a strong uptrend for most of 2017, as shown on the weekly chart. Also, the weekly chart shows that we are at a measured move target for the first leg of a move that began the week of 1/20/17 at $13 and ended around $21.1. Assuming a L1=L2 move, the target would have been $29.30.
Prices have consolidated around this level on the Daily chart and are offering a MOMO entry. The prices have nice consolidation between Darvas levels, propulsion and a strong Wave. Earnings are 1/25/18, so we do not have to worry about unexpected volatility on a short-term move.
I am looking for a $30.10 entry.
SL. 27.90
Profit: 30.80.
I do not necessarily like the options available for PENN. The Jan18 options are close to the 30day decay window and the April18 options would be a time premium with small open interest. However, Christmas holiday approaching, I would like the additional time, so I will be buying April18 30 Calls on a break of $30.10.
