MomentumOptionsTrading.com Weekly Wrap Profit Alert (KOG) for 6/26/2014
8:00am (EST)
The Weekly Wrap closed two more winners on Tuesday to run the track record to 18-4 for the year.
The whipsaw action in Kodiak Oil & Gas (KOG, $14.25, up $0.53) has been brutal following a test to $15 on Monday and then $13.63 on Tuesday.
I will keep the stock on my Watch List for a possible reentry above $15 but for now, the volatility needs to settle before getting into new positions.

Action: Shares made a nasty backtest to $13.75 on Tuesday after falling below $14 and triggering the stop limit. Although there was a rebound on Wednesday, the trade is officially closed.
For the option trade, I suggested closing half the trade at $1 on Monday to lock-in profits. The Stop Limit of 75 cents on the other half was triggered on Tuesday as well.
