KEY LEVEL

KKD has a key level of overhead supply now after the gap down on earnings.  Overhead supply level is into $20.30.  Key demand exists at $14.40 to $12.00.  These levels give us a guide of risk to setup a nice swing trade.

THE TRADE

Any bounce back up into overhead supply at $20.00 area is a nice entry for a swing short.  The stop would be over the $21.35 the gap highs and targets would be $14.40 and $12.00 area.
