LMTD trade ideas
LMT , LONG This is one I've been watching for several months or through 2022 .
I wanted to wait for a break abouve current all time high but I saw some things that I really like that justified the trade so I took it 2 min prior to close .
First of all LMT is a stock that has shown strength vs general market through 2022 which is the kind of stuff I want to be buying .
Todays price action is nice , I marked what I really like on the chart . I see volume is kind of low but we are in a range .
I have set a 1.5R derisk target near ATH which I think is reasonable . I will sell half there if sucessful and tighten stop to half , or 0.5 R initial risk .
Some points :
1) Low volume down at support , could be higher ..
2) Hammer from a few days ago .
3) Today is a bullish engulfing , that creates a higher high and eclipses 4 near-term candles to the left and was not sold at close .
4) We are in a daily range but it is a trending range since it has a major higher low mind you it also has a LH with lots of wicks so still
confusion there ... trading range price action rules BLSH ( buy
bottom 1/3 of range and sell top 1/3 ) which is basically what we are doing here only maybe buying a bit higher than we should
be, but that being said we still have a 1.5 R derisk to top of range , so reasonable .
Price action was the main justification for entry here hoping to see trend from open tomorrow / strong bulls / continuation..

Lockheed Martin Corp - Still up over 30% in 2022On 7th March 2022, this company reached an all-time high of 479.99 USD. However, it struggled to move higher after that and started to exhibit choppy price action. Over the past few weeks, it formed a range within which it tends to move; this rectangle pattern spans between 429.32 USD and 449.58 USD. We will monitor the price action of LMT as we anticipate a breakout either to the upside or downside. If the breakout to the downside occurs, an interesting opportunity of shorting this stock may present itself as this stock is still up over 30% in 2022.

LMT Autumn Reversal 🔼Lockheed Martin (LMT) NYSE:LMT made a stand at long-term support of 335. Although it is beneath the long-term pennant, the bullish engulfing candle on Wednesday, September 22 indicates a potential continuation candle back inside the pennant. If this occurs, the potential for a breakout into the October 25th earnings is very likely. Not to mention, the defense sector has been lagging over the course of the last 3 months, presenting another catalyst for a bullish position.
LMT Head & Shoulders Dump DumpNYSE:LMT
Lockheed Martin is about to confirm a H&S pattern on the daily chart.
On the weekly timeframe, it is pretty over-extended.
The Weekly MACD has crossed under the signal line, and the (not shown) Weekly RSI has exited overbought levels.
Price has broken under and retested the median line of the Schiff Fork (Purple)
A test of the lower bound of the fork around the $406 price level is locked in. (T0)
Judging by the chart pattern, I suspect that price will inevitably breakdown further to the lower targets set by the H&S pattern.
Using the light blue "Inside" Pitchfork as a path down to the lower targets, which coincide with extension levels of the purple Schiff pitchfork.
T1 = Height of the "Head" measured down from the neckline. - 2.0 Extension of the Schiff Pitchfork = $375 price level
T2 = 16% Average price decline of H&S patterns in bull markets per the Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns by Thomas N. Bulkowski. - 2.618 Extension of the Schiff Fork = $356 price level

Long LMT in the long termAs long as the war doesn't come to a peace treaty and countries like Germany and Switzerland spending increasing budget on defence, Lockheed Martin would be churning out armaments like Javelin missiles or F35s.
LMT might retest its strong resistance zone around 390-400 as the new support, or it might continue to trade in-range till a breakout towards upside or downside. Imo there is more upside in the long term. Can watch for the next quarterly earning too.
I am long LMT in the long term.
Lockheed Martin This is a long shot as the war is not over air warfare which is the specialty of Lockheed. However, the increase of its drone manufacturing capabilities could grant it a lot of governement contracts. If Putin boosts the Ukraine conflict from Special Operation to a declaration of War, I expect a lot of upside for Lockheed; specially Drone warfare division.
LMTOne of the few names that I think might have potential on the long side right now. Bouncing off YTD VWAP & the 100 sma today. Still consolidating at previous ath after breaking out of the downtrend in January of this year. Needs to hold here or it'll probably go back to test that $385-395 range imo.
Lockheed Martin - Bump & Run Reversal Bottom - LongBump & Run Reversal Bottom pattern has confirmed.
A reverse symmetry move to the $440 area could be in the cards.
Weekly MACD about to cross positive with a lot of room to the upside.
9wEMA crossing above the 20wEMA.
Not to mention the worsening situation in Ukraine providing a possible tailwind going forward.
LMT - the good times are now over. My big bearish play.We entered this stock before the Ukraine war when it was not a cool stock. Suffice it to say the bullish formation paid dividends and it has returned to a cool $440, netting us many profits in this long term trade.
However, the time has come now to exit and reassess at more reasonable valuations around a $350 stock price.
Unfortunately for Lockheed, and other defence companies, the Ukrainian war is proving to be a more limited engagement and as such, expectations of a full blown war between NATO and Russia must be tempered.
The weekly volume has been steadily declining along with a clear top pattern on the weekly RSI - I expect this stock to be $350 by the end of the year and as such have done a 4 way trade:
Call credit: 460/480c 12/31
Put debit: 380/400p 12/31
As well as some more fun 350/360p 12/31 put debits for a larger win should the target be met.
I will reassess this trade later this year.
This stock is up because of 1) limited ukraine war 2) expectations of a chinese move on Taiwan - unlikely 3) significant increases in US defence spending - unlikely in peacetime due to deficit constraints and inflation.
$LMT Lockheed Martin - Breakout, Retest, Bounce Candidate$LMT Lockheed Martin - Breakout, Retest, Bounce Candidate
Assuming $440 support level holds this week, monitor for a bounce toward $500 level medium term.
Medium Term Target: $500-$520 range by Q3'22
For an options play, I am looking to go long the Sep 16 22 $450 calls going for around $25.00 currently. If I was forming a spread to limit risk I would be selling the $500 calls with the same expiration. Or you could look at a calendar spread where you sell the $450 calls with an earlier expiration.
