Retrotransposon analysis on ChIP-seq data.

I want to analyse my ChIP-seq data for retrotransposons binding sites, Can somebody suggest me any tool which can be used for that? And how does pair end or single end sequencing effect the analysis?

Thanks

LTR_FINDER (Xu & Wang, 2007) could be one of options. In addition, one related paper (Chuong, et al, 2013) for your information.
