Trade Idea Of The Week In KTOS!Please note that I am a swing trader. When I enter a position I am looking to hold anywhere from 1 day to 3 months depending on the momentum, but the average is around 7 market days for my hold time. I think it is important to know how we're looking to trade this as different strategies will provide different results even on the same stocks. Here are some quick bullet points on why I like this stock for this week:
-The aerospace and defense sector is looking extremely strong right now (although somewhat extended like the rest of the market)
-The monthly, weekly, and daily charts all look coiled and ready to go higher
-Price looks to be firing out of a squeeze at longterm support
-Volume is picking up nicely
Remember to always trade within your system and trade what you see, not what you hear, feel, or fear.
Best of luck!
LMT

The stock prices rose after the innovation of stealth fighter jets,war news.
United State's power is based on that kind of warfare corporations and even in the broken economy cuz of political crisis and war, LMT stocks shall rise.
Investing in LMT stocks can be profitable cuz of US and North Korean crisis.
LONG POSITION - 2 Possible entries - Lockheed Martin (LMT)Sector: Industrial Goods
Industry: Aerospace/Defence Products & Services
BASIC INFO:
Lockheed Martin Corporation is a security and aerospace company in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration and sustainment of technology systems, products and services worldwide.
It operates through four segments:
Aeronautics, Missiles and Fire Control, Rotary and Mission Systems, and Space Systems.
Earnings over the last 4 quarters have been better than estimated as well as a few big contracts awarded to the company finance.yahoo.com . Price/Earnings for LMT are still above the industry average by at least 50%. Earnings Forecasts also look promising with a rising earning per share forecast over the next 4 years. Return on Equity gets a passing score as it has also been increasing for at least two consecutive years.
Here are 2 possible entry points to get in on the Lockheed Martin(LMT) up trend:
Price has been trading high above the 50 day moving average for the last month but still within the trend range. However this might indicate a posable correction back to the moving average and we might also have resistance around the 300 mark so we need to be careful of that.
Option 1 - The price pushes straight through 300, has a small resistance wobble and carries on with its up trend (MA50 might stop this happening).
Time to get in would be after we’re sure resistance has been broken i.e. 302.
Option 2 - Price rebounds off top trend line or the 300 mark forcing price to retrace closer the the MA50 and to the bottom trend line (Red Dotted Line) before attempting to break the 300 while moving with its average.
Time to get in would be after we have rebounded off the bottom trend line (Red Dotted Line) and have seen a day or two of positive price action.
For this stock my preference would be to aim for a stop just below the bottom trend line (Red Dotted Line) as this could be an indicator the trend is over. However as the trend continues I would add to the position every time the price bounces off the bottom trend line (Green Arrows).
LMT - Stacking Time to BuyI am stacking LMT with another confirmed reversal, it's back about the 9 day MA, the 50 day, 100 day and 200 day all have a nice slope still. The RSI is above the 50 level and heading up. Stochastic shows upward movement, and the MACD is making a positive cross up (almost)
Stop Loss at 270 - Take Profit (don't know I'm holding for a while)
Lockheed Martin locks down $1.38B pact for F-35 fighters LMTLockheed Martin (LMT -0.6%) has secured a $1.38B contract with the Pentagon for F-35 aircraft.
The deal is an advance acquisition contract covering 130 F35 Lightning II craft, for the Air Force (about 23%), Navy (about 3%), Marine Corps (9%), non-Department of Defense participants (38%), and foreign military customers (27%) -- as well as another 110 craft for the non-DoD participants and foreign customers.
TRUMP Victory-Calling all Hedge Funds - LMT to the Moon-FusionThis is mostly technical analysis based on projected world events.
LMT is a great company period. When it comes to business, if APPL was run like LMT, APPL would be much better than what it is today.
Why?
1) World conflict will intensify - and be dragged on.
2) Fusion reactor will be deploy-able around the continental US in 2020 ( thu this is a rough prediction as GT can not pinpoint the exact date just yet, the date will be a business model driven decision - 80%)
Lockheed Martin is run like a well built machine, aside N. Fusion this company is developing A.I. that is not just impressive, but,.... . And other units are a prime example(like its biological) of how well this company is doing.
TRUMP will increase spending with this corporation.
To the moon Alice!
LMT - Strong R/S. GAP DOWN Opportunity to BUY at $202-$205Stock is very strong relative to overall market. Closed September '15 gap on Tuesday's huge downside gap. The gap suspiciously followed a strong earnings number and a positive value deal announced. Institutional ownership very strong and a lot of fund money wants in but there's very little stock available. Tuesday's conspicuous gap to the downside is possibly a Specialist attempt to create the volume to start crossing some large institutional tickets on the book. I would be a buyer of this stock between $202-$205 with an upside short term target of $212 and $217. Stop below $202 area (dealer's choice)
Global Mitary Events Fuel LMT GrowthUnrelated to any sort of technical analysis but I've noticed that any large-scale global military event seems to be a catalyst for growth in LMT as shown by the markers indicating the dates that the respective events began, which are followed by a long uptrend. Although LMT holds no contracts within Russia, Ukraine or Iraq, these military events create unrest globally and fuel defense spending. Keeping an eye on the news, especially with the recent ending of the Russia/Ukraine cease fire. Long LMT.
LMT Lockheed Martin just hit a ceiling Dec 23rdAll indications I see are showing a set up to $177 - 176 zone. Supply has been coming in above $178 and now on approach to $200. I am long LMT. I am taking off a portion of this position Monday morning. I wrapped up early Fri and didn't catch my alert in time even though my #2 Excess Supply signal calculated Friday morning. My first stop is in the $160's. My avg is $100 between $130. LMT Lockheed Martin is one of my largest holdings. At 3 absolute deviations above a 15 year regression, the statistical gods are not with me. Trim & Trail kids.
