TRADE RATIONALE

I’m tempted to raise the stop price and leave this position open a while longer to see how much more profit we can wring out of it now that JCI is above our target price of $39. However, with an RSI of 74 and now trading above its upper Bollinger Band, I am concerned that the next big move for JCI might be a reversion to the mean so I’m closing out this position for a quick 18% gain in just seven weeks.
