Existing Position: PBF: Long 31.20 ATR 1.28

Name of Instrument: PBF Energy Inc CI A

Current Price: 35.29

****RAISED Trailing stop: 32.97 with time confirm

Reason For Trade: In a current state of consolidation, the risk to the 50 DMA is within bounds for a reward, should it clear over 32.00 of much higher levels. A weekly close over 32.62 will be the highest weekly close since 2013. At that point, it could run to the 40 level or better. IN current market conditions, I am looking for risks to major moving averages within 2 ATRs with 2 times that of reward potential.

***PROFIT TARGET REACHED Sold 1/3 33.44

***REACHED Second Profit Target Sold 1/3 original position: 34.44!

Third Profit Target: Sell another ½ of remaining position at 37.24
