Re: MVK ... MVK was presented here on 1/10 with a profit target of $2.00 to $4.00. Price has exceeded the first profit target and I have not taken profits yet. Volume is exploding today and I will hold for the higher price profit target.

$45.30 in real time.

Re: 1/10 SET UP ... MVK ... Intermediate to long term ...........

I did not take profits at the $2.00 target and raised the profit target to $4.00.

I sold 1/2 position today for a $4.00 per share profit.

Original chart:

Up to date chart:

The objective now is to buy back a full position on any pull back to the rising 20 day moving average.

Stop is moved up to the entry target of $42.41.

I had reported selling 1/2 of the position with a profit of $4.00 per share. The trade exceeded expectations.

=============================================================

Updated status:

1/10 MVK (msg #7024) ... Trade closed ... 1/2 position ... up 9.4%
1/10 MVK (msg #7192) ... Trade still open ... 1/2 position ... up 2.6%
..... E $42.41 ... AS $42.41 ... PT $2.00 - $4.00


==============================================================

The trade was performing well enough that I decided to change the time frame from intermediate to long term. This has caused me to give back some profits on the second 1/2 position. However, price is now testing the 50 period moving average on the daily chart. If price can trade above today's high of the day, I will add a full position to my long term hold. That will give me a position size of 1 1/2.

Daily chart:

I will follow up with any information regarding whether the new trade triggers or not.

I have adjusted my stop on the original position. I have it set at the break even point of $42.41.

MVK has far exceeded both profit targets and I am still in the trade. I have already added to this position and taken profits on a couple of trades that were about 10% on each trade.

MVK is breaking out to new highs today and is up 22% on the remaining position.

MVK was the only overweighted position I have had to date and it has been very profitable.
