LMT trade ideas
LMT - Stacking Time to BuyI am stacking LMT with another confirmed reversal, it's back about the 9 day MA, the 50 day, 100 day and 200 day all have a nice slope still. The RSI is above the 50 level and heading up. Stochastic shows upward movement, and the MACD is making a positive cross up (almost)
Stop Loss at 270 - Take Profit (don't know I'm holding for a while)
Drums of War ?Good morning traders,
Sad start of the week, with another terrorist attack in London. Stand together.
This is added to the conflict in Middle East , Qatar breached diplomatic relations with its counterparties in the gulf region, presumably due to support of terrorism.
Reviewing military-related stocks, they are very bullish. Is this drums of war symptom ? Or just trending like rest of the market ?
In any case, have a great trading week , in peace.

Lockheed Martin locks down $1.38B pact for F-35 fighters LMTLockheed Martin (LMT -0.6%) has secured a $1.38B contract with the Pentagon for F-35 aircraft.
The deal is an advance acquisition contract covering 130 F35 Lightning II craft, for the Air Force (about 23%), Navy (about 3%), Marine Corps (9%), non-Department of Defense participants (38%), and foreign military customers (27%) -- as well as another 110 craft for the non-DoD participants and foreign customers.
Lockheed MartinLMT is no doubt set to benefit from geopolitical factors including the likelihood of an expansion of the war in Iraq/Syria in an effort to quell ISIL along with escalating tensions in the south pacific ocean. An 8% gain in LMT from jan30 to mar30 is a conservative estimate but is made by taking into consideration previous gains. This tells me that further pullback is likely to come before a bullish trend, or LMT will break previous highs as a result of geopolitical concerns. Either way Lockheed Martin will take off which is a feat the F35 struggles at performing.
TRUMP Victory-Calling all Hedge Funds - LMT to the Moon-FusionThis is mostly technical analysis based on projected world events.
LMT is a great company period. When it comes to business, if APPL was run like LMT, APPL would be much better than what it is today.
Why?
1) World conflict will intensify - and be dragged on.
2) Fusion reactor will be deploy-able around the continental US in 2020 ( thu this is a rough prediction as GT can not pinpoint the exact date just yet, the date will be a business model driven decision - 80%)
Lockheed Martin is run like a well built machine, aside N. Fusion this company is developing A.I. that is not just impressive, but,.... . And other units are a prime example(like its biological) of how well this company is doing.
TRUMP will increase spending with this corporation.
To the moon Alice!
LMT GETTING READYLMT's long-term trend has been up for a long time and is currently trading at a 10% discount from its highs. It held its weekly support of 234.75 and broke out of its short-term resistance of 244.04. It may retest the 234.75 zone but now would be a good time to begin accumulating. 9/23 B4 close
LMT - Strong R/S. GAP DOWN Opportunity to BUY at $202-$205Stock is very strong relative to overall market. Closed September '15 gap on Tuesday's huge downside gap. The gap suspiciously followed a strong earnings number and a positive value deal announced. Institutional ownership very strong and a lot of fund money wants in but there's very little stock available. Tuesday's conspicuous gap to the downside is possibly a Specialist attempt to create the volume to start crossing some large institutional tickets on the book. I would be a buyer of this stock between $202-$205 with an upside short term target of $212 and $217. Stop below $202 area (dealer's choice)
