I blogged about $KMI yesterday and got traders in 12631 into some calls yesterday at a pretty nice price. However, there’s something about today’s action that should be noted.
Some of the biggest winners I’ve blogged here for you over the years were a couple earnings surprises. $X, $YRCW, $LULU, $APOL, etc. What made them unique was their volume structure, and overhead profile. Here’s another look at $KMI today:
In each earnings trade, what set the trade off and gave us an uninterrupted trend move through the pocket was a gap up into the overhead pocket, similar to what $KMI has done here today. In each instance, there was a quick move after the open in which profit takers drove prices lower, but found buyers on the retest of the trading range.
After that initial move, in each ticker I mentioned, there was consolidation or acceptance of new prices on the day, which served as a base for prices to move away from, like you see here in $KMI on the lower time frame. This is quite the arrangement for a trend style move here. Follow through on this gap tomorrow should spark a trend style move back up through the overhead pocket.
