Target - Pullback trade

8 сент. 2020 г.The markets have been selling off over the past few days, leaving most of the sectors in the S&P 500 in the red. A stock that caught my eye today was Target. The discount store's stock prices have been trading near it's 21 day exponential moving average only dipping beneath it temporarily throughout intraday trading sessions. Despite the warning signs of what could be another big sell off, I choose to remain bullish on TGT and consider this to be a pullback trade setup. Of course, we might see price dip below the 21 as it has in the past...but that doesn't seem to be more than a day or two. If it does... then consider the possibility that Target is reversing rather than pulling back.

Options speculators should consider the chance of a broad market selloff and at think about using spreads rather than directional plays. If you are trading the stock, plan your trade and trade your plan. Only you know what you can afford.
