Are You Ford Tough

Back in April we took a look at a car company that looked like it had a lot of potential. No it was not Tesla, $TSLA, but Ford, $F, in Ford is Preparing for a Long Term Breakout. I took the proposed trade, buying the January 2015 15 Strike Calls for on April 26th for $1.23. Since then I rolled half of them to the January 2014 16 Strike Calls at the end of May, getting back half of my premium. It has continued to rise since then and is doing good things for the portfolio. But the look in April was suggesting a long term breakout was possible. So how does it look now? Lets take a look.

The weekly chart back to 1999 shows a few key potential resistance levels in the next few dollars higher. It has support now at the 38.2% retracement of the major move lower below at 16.19 and nearly retraced the expected 38.2% target on the bearish Shark Harmonic. The 50% retracement of the major move lower comes at 20.87 but there is long term resistance at 18.93 along the way. Is it still worth playing to the upside? Yes, but at this point you need to reconsider the trigger to enter or add to your position. A move above 18 gives a clean path to the resistance levels above. You might consider taking profits on your position if it moves back under 16.19. There are many targets higher along the way, but the monthly chart with the Inverse Head and Shoulders points to the reason to look at this as a long term trade. It is just getting started.
