THE PLAYS:
New Pre-Announcement Play:
Play Date: 07/30/2008
TMO (Thermo Fisher Scientific--$59.55; +1.40; optionable): Analytical instruments, equipment, reagents, software, etc. for research, analysis, etc.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/t/tmo.html
EARNINGS: Announced 7-24-08
STATUS: Ascending triangle. Spent the year thus far devoting itself to an ascending triangle, making a series of higher lows along an August 2007/April 2008 trendline with a constant top at 59ish. After earnings last week it dipped to the 50 day SMA, making a higher low, and bouncing. Not a lot of volume on the bounce, but it is at the highs in the pattern and a higher low in such a situation typically precedes a breakout move. Strong money flow is leading the way higher and coupled with the higher low we are looking for a breakout move here.

BUY POINT: $60.12 Volume=3.9M Target=$67.74 Stop=$58.08

New Post Split Play:
Play Date: 07/30/2008
RIMM (Research in Motion--$119.22; +3.16; optionable): Smart phones
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/r/rimm.html
EARNINGS: 9-25-08
STATUS: Reverse head and shoulders. After gapping lower in late June on earnings that didn't cut the mustard, RIMM languished for 4 weeks, undercutting the 200 day SMA (114.59) by a good margin. It recovered and spent the past week moving laterally just over the 200 day. The action formed the right shoulder to a 4 week base. Wednesday RIMM was up and though volume was nothing to get all rimmed up about, the market firmed and this tech is in position to make a run up toward that unfilled gap all the way up near 140. Interesting.
Volume: 14.583M Avg Volume: 18.839M
BUY POINT: $119.89 Volume=25M Target=$136.95 Stop=$116.68
POSITION: RUL ID - Sept. $120c (51 delta) &/or Stock

New Leader Play:
Play Date: 07/30/2008
ENER (Energy Conversion Devices--$68.61; +2.19; optionable): Solar semiconductors
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/e/ener.html
EARNINGS: 8-28-08
STATUS: Double bottom. After a strong May to late June surge ENER has tested back to the key 50 day EMA (63.03), hitting it in early July, bouncing, but then losing its drive. It sold back to the 50 day EMA and tapped the same 60 level it hit one session intraday in early July on its first bottom. Bounced and volume is moving higher. Strong money flow is leading the way higher and with volume continuing higher on a further upside move we are ready to move in.
Volume: 2.596M Avg Volume: 3.442M
BUY POINT: $68.94 Volume=500K Target=$79.75 Stop=$66.11
POSITION: EQI IM - Sept. $65c (64 delta) or EQI LN - Dec. $70c (48 delta) &/or Stock
