AAP 08/05 Rev HS 44.10 +0.09 44.48 52.75 1.3M 1.8M 42.71
Current. Doji move laterally for AAP Wednesday on fading, below average volume. Nice Rev HS base here and now key to see if it can push past the mid August high here near 45.

AMZN 08/21 DB hdl 80.77 -0.64 84.22 99.65 5.7M 1.2M 80.68
Current. Short step lower Wednesday for AMZN as it slowly but surely works its way lower into September in this test of the early August high. At the 50 day EMA now and has to hold the line here.

ARO 08/09 Cup 35.94 -0.85 36.11 42.95 2.7M 4M 34.55
Current. Gave back a majority of Tuesday gains in some selling Wednesday on just below average volume. Making a quick test here of this late August, early September breakout and ready to resume higher again soon off support from the 10 day EMA and prior August highs near 35.

ASIA 08/13 Rev HS 12.92 -0.33 14.28 17.89 391K 725K 13.44
Buy Not Hit. Sold hard through Wednesday past the key 90 day SMA where it had to hold and could not do it so pulled the plug.

ATHR 08/13 Dbl btm 29.97 -1.36 34.38 40.95 2.7M 2.5M 32.54
Buy Not Issued. ATHR just couldn't hold onto the 90 day SMA as support after weathering some rough selling through Tuesday. Same story midweek here as it broke the 90 day SMA with ease and let us know it was time to drop.

AUXL 08/27 Test 18 38.18 -1.08 39.57 47.95 851K 1M 37.28
Buy Not Hit. This is where it need to hold and make the bounce after selling off resistance from the 18 day EMA Wednesday. It looked really good until late in the session. Drug stock so it should continue its bounce upside once this is over. We have already taken some good gain on this and when it bounces we are looking to add. Dropped the buy point on the position not entered to just over the 10 day EMA as well.

AUXL 07/23 Test BO 38.18 -1.08 36.76 42.72 851K 1M 40.31
Current.

AVAV 07/15 Test 18 34.50 +1.65 30.96 36.95 236K 300K 32.88
Current. Great move higher off support from the 10 day EMA Wednesday for AVAV as it posted some rising, just below average as well. Continuing its solid move higher along its key trend line at 18 day EMA into September here and so far in great shape.

BRKR 08/27 DB hdl 16.91 +0.28 15.74 18.95 1.6M 825K 15.88
Current. Doji step higher after the Tuesday surge. Just posting a short step higher and catching its breath after the Tuesday surge and still on high volume so expecting some more upsides from BRKR soon.

CCC 08/23 Cup hdl 19.65 -2.32 19.79 23.85 2M 775K 20.77
Current. Bad result from what was really solid as CCC continued the Tuesday selling through the floor Wednesday. It was holding its own near 21.50ish, kind of a normal pullback, and then just fell off the table over a 10 minute period in late afternoon. It bounced a little, but was smothered late. It did hold the 18 day EMA so looking to see if it can mount a bounce from here. If not we are out because this was a fast move that pushed it around big time.

CMED 07/26 DB hdl 46.20 +0.08 49.65 58.65 380K 800K 52.92
Current. Gapped lower, but recovered nicely to hold support from the 18 day EMA at the close. Almost starting to look very promising as it nudges higher from its testing low of late August.

CPWR 08/28 Test 18 11.25 -0.31 11.68 14.00 5.1M 4M 11.14
Buy Not Issued. Sold hard Wednesday on above average volume past the key 18 day EMA but held the late August lows nicely so will give it a day.

DGX 08/20 Test 18 54.53 +0.18 54.88 63.32 1.1M 1.8M 53.45
Buy Not Issued. On rising below average volume as it continues to consolidate along the 54s and 55s through August and into September. Holding the 10 day EMA nicely here and with volume picking up DGX could be starting up a nice move higher from this consolidation for the buy.

DTSI 08/28 DB hdl 31.62 +0.11 33.77 40.85 186K 315K 31.41
Buy Not Hit. Holding the 18 day EMA Wednesday with average volume and a doji after selling through Tuesday. Needs to hold here and show another bounce off support to stay out of trouble.

EDU 08/09 Cup hdl 70.84 -4.26 78.00 89.75 623K 975K 74.72
Current. Bled away on the session, bit by bit on low trade. Bounced in the last hour and was bouncing after hours. It held over a wad of support from the 90 day SMA and various August lows so seeing how it rides this out.

ENER 08/16 Cup 68.63 -2.06 75.38 84.88 2.4M 4M 76.89
Current. Sold some more Wednesday back to the 50 day EMA in this test of the late August high and has to hold the line here.

ESRX 08/13 Cup hdl 74.58 +1.55 74.98 94.95 2.1M 3.5M 72.54
Current. Firming up nicely as it continues to push uphill from its late August testing low near the 18 day EMA at 72ish. On just below average volume and so far in pretty decent shape in the new month.

FAST 08/26 Rev HS 52.29 +0.27 52.46 60.45 1.2M 2.8M 50.50
Current. Riding out the storm and holding the 10 day EMA nicely here in the low 50s. Can't complain as long as it holds support here.

FMC 08/18 DB hdl 72.13 -0.60 75.11 86.75 849K 1.2M 72.77
Buy Not Hit. Trying to hold on here as it took another step lower into Wednesday to the 50 day EMA as support. Held the moving average nicely intraday and now key to see it stop the bleeding.

GPRO 08/12 DB hdl 58.84 -0.32 61.77 69.95 413K 832K 58.84
Buy Not Hit. Still in solid shape as it gave a tight doji at the 18 day EMA on just below average volume. Looks to have bottomed here again now in September and will look for a buy out of this pullback into the new month soon.

GS 08/21 Rolling 167.61 +2.29 160.55 180.00 6.7M 13M 157.38
Buy Not Issued. Showing tenacity as gapped lower and closed higher. Just playing this one cautiously, waiting for big volume and not playing just the roll higher in the rolling range.

Entered today. After gapping Tuesday moved in Wednesday as it rallied, faded some, but held the gains on very strong trade and looks good to climb some more this week.

HLF 08/25 Cup hdl 46.08 -0.70 47.65 54.95 999K 1.4M 45.97
Buy Not Issued. Gapped lower and sold hard early Wednesday but bounced to hold the 18 day EMA as support and gave us the buy as it held its key trend line. Expecting some more upsides from here from HLF after this quick pullback in early September.

IBB 09/02 Test 50 86.06 +0.88 86.74 97.55 556K 2M 84.65
Buy Not Hit. Holding here some more at its testing low at the 50 day EMA on low volume. Should have no trouble keeping above the key moving average and ready to jump in if IBB can show us some solid upsides out of this long pullback into the new month.

IXYS 07/18 Test BO 12.23 -0.13 13.48 15.95 158K 350K 12.54
Current. Doji at the 50 day EMA as IXYS gapped lower Wednesday on below average volume in its test lower into September so we will see if that yields a bounce.

JNJ 08/04 Asc Tri 71.51 -0.22 69.60 78.00 9.8M 17M 70.08
Current. Moved laterally along the 10 day EMA Wednesday on just below average volume. Holds here at resistance from the early August highs and will need to push higher past them once trade picks up and show us some strength.

Trailing Stop. Weathered some rough selling through Wednesday past the 50 day EMA on below average volume and hit the stop loss mark on the way down as it broke key support.

Buy Not Issued. Modest move higher for MANT Wednesday off the 10 day EMA for some decent gains on below average trade. Still in decent shape as it gradually works its way uphill through early September on near average volume.

MANT 07/08 Test 50 60.33 +0.55 50.74 57.95 195K 329K 58.77
Current.

MCD 08/02 Rev HS 61.72 -1.19 61.58 69.95 10M 12M 63.55
Trailing Stop. Mcdonalds getting hit hard in some selling Wednesday as it broke lower past the key 18 day EMA and late August closing lows as support. Took the rest off the table and will see how it sets back up. Took some gain early on when we caught the breakout.

MSCC 08/18 Test BO 25.75 -1.76 27.82 31.95 1.6M 1.4M 26.55
Buy Not Issued. Dropped this one Wednesday as it went through some rough selling in the session on rising high volume past the key 50 day EMA and 90 day SMA.

Current. Tested the 18 day EMA in some more selling Wednesday and bounced on low volume. Decided to wait here and see how it recovers, looking for new positions as it does.

Buy Not Issued. Short step higher for OTEX off the 10 day EMA on average volume. Still inside its consolidation range near the mid 30s and in decent shape as it holds support from the 10 and 18 day EMAs. Like the pickup in trade to the average line Wednesday and just needs to break higher from this consolidation move for the buy.

PETS 08/04 Test BO 15.26 +0.64 15.12 18.22 386K 450K 14.88
Current. Surged through Wednesday on rising, above average volume for some impressive gains. Nice DB hdl base here and key to see it push past the early August highs near 15.35.

Current. Solid day for RL as it posted some modest gains off support from the 10 day EMA. Like all retailers (URBN, TJX, BIG, etc.) same store sales Thursday will drive their near term action. Most are up ahead of these, anticipating decent results.

RMD 09/02 DB hdl 45.53 -0.85 47.48 53.95 762K 1.2M 45.15

Current. APD posting some great selling through Wednesday off the 10 day EMA as resistance and no signs of hitting the brakes just yet so set to continue lower a bit more.

Buy Not Hit. Climbed through Wednesday as it continues to test this late August low. Posting some rough upsides here midweek to close at resistance from the 50 day EMA and will have to see how same store sales treat BIG Thursday. If it turns lower again off resistance from the 50 day EMA it is a buy.

DE 09/02 Put 66.53 -2.18 68.12 64.54 5.6M 6M 69.22
DE posting some more solid downsides through the start of September and love the average volume here as well. No signs of slowing down just yet, but with the August lows coming up near 66.0 we will keep a close watch on this one to see it break support there.

MOS 08/14 Put 93.09 -4.12 101.65 93.65 11M 7.5M 94.11
Target Hit. Nice plummet for some decent gain to hit the target on the way down and so far MOS starting out September looking solid.

SAH 08/25 Put 11.74 +0.64 10.67 8.38 571K 850K 11.31
Buy Not Hit. Will see how it handles the 50 day EMA after pushing uphill through Wednesday to resistance from the moving average. It got some upside volume so will keep a close eye on it to see that it turns lower.

SDS 08/25 Trnd Rv 66.11 +0.16 67.29 72.00 20M 25M 65.57
Current. SP500 with a move laterally as SDS did the same as its inverse and held the 18 day EMA as support. Just watching it closely here at support from the key 50 day EMA as well, but at resistance from the 50 day SMA which it failed at intraday Wednesday.
