NYSE:​MPC

Prices have not yet pushed through the 24% extension of the preceding range, which is necessary to confirm that a larger move higher is underway.

Very bullish action here as we clear LT resistance and a big volume push on Friday headline. Sustained RSI helps confirm breakout. Entry would be long half position with a tight stop around 63 based on the daily chart: https://www.tradingview.com/x/gSN1DjoQ/

SHORT

MPC has been forming a flat base with a potential buy point of 54.69, but a more aggressive trader could enter at 53.65-53.75. Happy Trading! mpc

Watch for weekly close above he orange resistance line. RSI needs to continue to find strength. Watch that MACD Cross. Not sure how strong that signal is.

$MPC has an excellent long term uptrend signal at play here. If not long you should average in over 3 days at least, risking a drop to 43.42, or 3 daily average ranges down. Targets are 89.66 and potentially up to 143.09 in the long run, to be hit by or before Q4 2019. My mentor, Tim West has been adamant about $MPC's strengt, and so far he's been right. This ...

She wanted to breakout so bad. Hate to see nice setups like this fall apart. Thanks OPEC.

Added more to my short position for this triple top in $MPC. Long put options. Way overbought. Self explanatory. Have fun.

If oil takes a significant dip overnight, I will be short MPC. I don't think there is any fundamental to support this stock to the upside anyways, so I am shorting calls. Plus I am not much of an options buyer unless to trying to hit a home run. The blue line represents options expiration day. These are 4h bars. Important to note that NOT all refiners are ...

Buy them TODAY. They are cheap today. Good luck.

Look guys, this is the same Fib retracement that has HELD since the Jan-Feb selloff. Do not take my word for it. Look at my previous predictions, load the new data, and see how much money was made. MPC has had a history of bucking the market. When SPX was down 2%, this was down 7%. When SPX was up 3%, this was up over 8.5%. This is a lower liquidity, higher ...

Long to 41 then 44

No reason to hold anything over the weekend unless you have to. Something smelly about the markets. I can feel the SPY wanting to sell. MPC rallied up testing 37.00 fib level. It tested that level and it did not breach. The chart indicates overall bullish. It has/is building a nice $35 floor for itself. THE MODEL HAS NOT BEEN RE-DRAWN AND MPC IS TRADING PER THOSE ...

If you went bullish on calls per my previous post, you are enjoying a nice pop today. My time horizon is longer so I am holding until $38.75 (the next fib level). The MA just crossed and I want that to marinate for a few sessions. You should be just playing with house money now if you bought the day or day after I posted. This is technicals-only trade devoid of ...

Get em while they're cheap! You might find cheaper premiums on HFC as they nose-dived yesterday, but MPC has stronger fundamentals IMO. And a reminder like always, MPC has a history of bucking the market the market: SPY. In regard to fundamentals, this is an oversold reaction to MPC and other refiners' posting losses for Q1 2016. We all knew the refining ...

I'll let the chart speak for itself. The chart was drawn prior to today's open.

Please compare this to my previous post where I had drawn the Fib retracement. I have redrawn this to capture the double bottoms. I was not sure if it could break out from it's previous fib level and so far this previous retracement model is holding up. I have said this many times, but will say it again. MPC has a history of bucking the market and is doing so ...

Today's was the first breakout for MPC from the fib retracement. It is topping out back to the January lows. This MAY be a point to where the trade switches from fundamentals before it trades off of something technical. Just general discussion. I sold today. Please comment.
