This trade idea came to me from my weekend stocks review. This was featured in Investor's Business Daily's Stocks on the Move on Friday's issue. They had recently posted earnings and was starting to break out of a tight consolidation base
This stock has had a buy gap up and the momentum was starting to accelerate

I bought 200 shares this afternoon and I got filled at $25.24
Stop Loss -5%
I am having a little tighter stop on this trade and it will place it just above the 50 day EMZ
Upside Target +15%
This will provide a 3:1 risk reward ratio. Depending on the speed that it reaches this target I can sell half the position to hold the rest for a longer term gain
