Trade Ideas: KVHI

Another volatile day for the markets as indices struggled to gain a foothold from their freefall. The SOX took the brunt of the selling, but each day of downside brings the markets closer to a more compelling bottom. June should see a summer bottom in place - good enough for a 3-4 month rally.

The next rally will entertain talk of a return to the secular bearish decline (lower highs), a double top (equal, to new 52-week highs), or business "as usual" (a chugging rally). But buying opportunities for the nimble should present themselves very soon. Until then use now as a time to look for pockets of strength, build a watch list of stocks (it will be short!) and see how they ride out the next few days. Stocks which sit 1-2% from major support are probably worth a long-side pop while allowing for minimal risk on capital.

I have implemented such a strategy in my Collective 2 portfolio with three long-side positions entered last week. I will be looking to add more over time.

One stock for the watch lists is KVHI. Key resistance lurks at $11.50 but the stock did manage a break of a small triangle (of $11 resistance) on light volume to set this up for a bigger challenge on $11.50. Earlier MACD 'buy' trigger sides the momentum with the bulls.
