Friday's Outcomes: LUV, VRX, CTL

LUV broke below its stop/loss level and I've closed my bull position, moving the symbol to the Roll Shelf. See "LUV: Upside potential" for details.

VRX, which I discussed in "Friday's Prospects: Round 2", closed above its low point of the day, set in morning trading. I declined to take the trade because I found the downward momentum to be insufficient. I'll keep the symbol on the Watchlist for consideration next week.

I filed an analysis of CTL after the market close on Thursday but declined to take trade because a lack of downside momentum. The price reversed sharply to the upside today. CTL will remain on the Watchlist until it closes and confirms above the 10-day price channel, as specified in my trading rules. See "CTL: Santa's bear".
