NEW Position: Long XOP 76.25 ATR 1.38

Name of Instrument: SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration

Sell Stop: 74.87

Current Price: 76.33

Reason for Trade: After basing for 10 days on its 200 DMA and a prior weekly breakout level, its beginning to turn up. If this move is good I expect that it will not drop back below 75.

First Target: 78.00 where we'll move stop to no loss.

Existing Position: Long JBLU 11.07 ATR .39

Name of Instrument: Jet Blue Airways

Sell Stop: Trailing Stop 11.47

Current Price: 12.60

Reason for Trade: After testing the 50 DMA twice, it gapped up over the 10 DMA and gave a good tight risk to below the 50 DMA. Has cleared the 6 month calendar range as well. If can hold and clear recent highs 11.59 see 12.00 or higher

Second Target: 12.98 (Sell 1/2 of remaining position)
