CMG...40K of burritos???I sold a put this week in CMG as the stock is under pressure (again) and had wanted to jump in even earlier (where the green arrow is) but had not researched and checked into what was going on with the stock. While the stock did recover and have a decent swing, which would have allowed me to close......I am glad I waited as a practice for restricting those impulsive trades. I traded this name last year and had mixed results with my 401 getting decent gains and my reg-T taking a sizeable hit. I have the means to defend better this time and still hold min. 50% cash reserves. I like the stock and the company overall and have problems finding anything in the market that I don't find to be massively overpriced. Last year when I was trading CMG and selling puts weekly (pretty decent premium) I noticed that the float was shrinking but the short interest was the same. With only ~28M shares outstanding and ~4M short....this seems like it could have good potential to the upside. I got a little better trade placement by waiting but does not mean I won't get taken for a ride again, with earnings coming soon I will look to manage if the stock runs up a little into earnings or hope that IVR will stay high when/if it gaps down after earnings to help the roll. I probably should have waited and played the "after earnings" event but have been sitting on the sidelines this year with not many trades and need to take some risk in order to make some money.

BUY CHIPOTLE CALLS - SHORT TERM TRADERS MAY SEE 10% REBOUND3 out of 4 days since 6/26 sell-off bottom, CMG has made higher highs. More importantly, 4 out of 4 days have seen higher lows than the previous day. Buy the July 21calls for liquidity. The stock is trading in a range of about 7 points a day, with that range moving higher each day. Even so, the 14 day RSI is still at a 6 month low. You can never use Chaikin Money flows as a sole indicator, but when paired with another it can be very useful. EVERY TIME CMG HAS BOTTOMED SINCE 2016, the Chaikin money flows have bottomed with it - ESPECIALLY when the Bollinger bands spread out and you look at the peak spreads created in the sell-offs. And so it is today, as CMF nears a 2 year low. Do not let 1 day of potential selling scare you off this trade, as I think the big sellers appear done. My bet is the regular old, huge, fund supporters are starting to show up in the afternoons.. Finally, if you are bearish or have been bearish on Chipotle like I have been for so long - this is a difficult trade to put on. The fact is - this stock has been overvalued and overpriced since 2016 and that is what we have had a hard time believing. But when you think about it - why should that change now? It shouldn't - until the 7/25 earnings, anyhow. Sometimes the hardest trades to go with are the best trades you make. NOTE Text in chart should end with "Has Always Bounced Back At least 10% Off Sell-off Lows"

hipotle Breaks Below Trendline Support, Longer Term Trouble AheaChipotle Mexican Grill ($CMG) Daily: So last time we looked at this stock (see previous post), it managed to find support on this long upward trendline that began back in November of 2016; and since then, it has broken through that support, found some near term base around $413 and closed the day at around $416. We saw this big rolling over in the past few months, and after topping out and breaking through support, it began a precipitous drop this month. The possible good news is that this stock is oversold, and it appears to be making an effort to make a turn higher – you can see the RSI and MACD on the daily chart slowly trying to make its way higher below. Now the bad news: the longer term weekly chart shows that the overall momentum of this stock is now to the negative side, with the weekly MACD rolling over, and the stock remains under selling pressure and under the 50 week moving average (after breaking below the trendline support). My thoughts here is that in the near term, the stock may move higher and retrace back to the trendline support that it had broken through, and it can “ride” along this resistance line for a bit, up to ~$430, but unless it can gain enough buyer momentum and make a move to break above the trendline AND moving average resistance, it will most likely follow a bearish turn lower in the longer term. Investors and traders need to be wary of the fact that Chipotle’s recent moves is a trend change, and be defensive toward the downside, and not mistaken a retracement to previous support levels as some sort of a rally in the stock. There’s always a chance that the stock will be compelled to move higher on some sort of event driven rally, but barring that, I would caution that buyers need to take a defensive stance on this stock going forward.
