MomentumOptionsTrading.com Weekly Wrap New Trade (OPK)/ Profit Alert (KKD) for 12/17/13

12:45pm (EST)

We have a special situation brewing on one of our favorite stocks to trade.  In September, a LEAP option trade made our subscribers 213% in a little over a month.

We like the risk/ reward and we are suggesting new positions at current levels on a stock we have done major research on.  We are getting the EXACT same setup we did 3 months ago with some pending news possibly coming by the end of the month.  The company’s CEO recently purchased 150,000 shares between $8.55-$9.12.  The stock is currently down 9% on acquisition news, as is normally the case for an acquiring company, and is at $8.30.

Subscribers, check the Weekly Wrap Premium section/ Members Area for the update.

Special Note:  We also have a Profit Alert for Krispy Kreme Doughnuts (KKD, $18.55, up $0.10).  The winning trade gets our 2013 Track Record to 41-4 for the year.

New Trade!!!

Opko Health (OPK, $8.24, down $0.85)

Buy to OPEN March 10 calls (OPK140322C00010000, $0.70, down $0.25) LEAP OPTION

Action:  Shares took a beating last week and support seems to be holding at $8.50 again.  We went long back in September when shares were at support and made over 200% with these same March call options.  We are looking for lightening to strike the shirts twice as we are expecting major news from the company this month.

Action:  We are going to COVER our short on this trade and lock-in a small profit by buying the stock back.  We want to lighten our Weekly Wrap Portfolio before yearend and we can always come back to the stock on a close below $18.  This level has been serving as short-term support and we were looking for a close under this level last week.
