Upside Plays
Stock Date Play Close +/- Pivot Tgt Vol TgtV Stop
AAPL 04/15 Test 20 135.88 +0.30 119.69 132.77 15M 25M 131.33
Current. RIMM earnings were okay but not blowout and it was down 4 clicks after hours. AAPL was flat. What hurts RIMM does not necessarily translate to AAPL and indeed other tech but AAPL still hanging here at its 18 day EMA as resistance and needs help getting over this bump in the road.

AKS 06/17 Test 18 18.84 +0.66 18.84 26.95 9.1M 15M 17.21
Entered today. Continued the move off the 38% Fibonacci test and that was our entry point. Quite a significant factor making this bounce now and AKS in solid shape to lead higher from here after this indicator set off Thursday.

AKS 05/07 Test BO 18.84 +0.66 13.85 17.38 9.1M 12M 19.78
Current.

APA 06/02 Test BO 77.89 -1.00 83.10 99.00 4.5M 5M 78.22
Current. Hanging in at some support but it is just hanging on by a finger at its 50 day EMA and late May lows. Can't have it slip or its out.

APC 05/02 Asc Tri 46.84 -0.58 45.64 52.55 7.9M 8M 47.78
Current. Still holding here above its 50 day EMA and filling in the gap from early May down to 46 from 48 and still a key level for APC so can't have it slipping lower or we can it.

APH 06/13 Asc Tri 32.24 +0.12 32.57 39.94 888K 2.5M 31.44
Buy Not Issued. Dropped APH with its second doji move laterally here. Wasting our time just lolly gagging around these low 30s at supports and with low volume. Bigger fish to fry.

BHI 06/04 Test BO 37.92 -0.23 40.86 48.95 3.7M 6M 39.88
Current. Not a good looking pattern with BHI still just hanging here by its fingernails at key supports from the 200 day SMA and 50 day EMA. A bounce toward 40 that gets stallish is a sell.

BJS 06/10 Pennant 14.10 +0.08 15.67 19.88 6.3M 12M 14.57
Exited. Could not get back upside after the gap lower so exited with BJS in rough shape here only looking to fall lower from its resistance at the 50 day EMA and mid May lows.

BOOM 06/13 Test BO 19.72 +0.26 21.66 24.95 290K 575K 19.88
Buy Not Hit. Dropped this one as it bucked resistance from the 18 day EMA and held low volume. BOOM looking pretty weak overall so letting it go.

BOOM 05/28 Pennant 19.72 +0.26 19.57 23.95 290K 500K 20.44
Trailing Stop.

CAT 05/16 Test BO 34.08 -0.72 37.11 43.95 16M 18M 35.32
Current. Trying to pull out another life or two here as it holds the May low, but the pattern has turned bearish. A bounce up toward the 50 day EMA that stalls is the sell signal.

CE 06/06 DB hdl 22.39 +0.43 21.66 24.95 714K 4M 21.08
Current. Stepped laterally along the 18 day EMA just hanging here for now on low volume. Doing well holding up key support and looking great for a strong move higher again soon in this DB hdl base.

CELG 06/10 Test 50 46.21 +1.27 44.97 49.95 5.3M 7.8M 43.11
Current. Nice move higher again for CELG keeping up the surge from Wednesday now and on average volume still so looking great to continue higher into Friday at this rate especially after breaking its early June high at 46.

CHK 06/03 Test BO 21.85 -0.29 23.33 27.95 12M 20M 22.57
Current. Another energy stock at support but having issues such as the twin peaks in June. On a bounce to 22.75ish that stalls, better get to the hills as CHK will likely start the roll lower from there.

CME 05/09 Asc Tri 329.06 +2.56 257.78 284.95 736K 2M 316.08
Current. Stepped along the 18 day EMA as its testing low for June here. On low volume resting at this key moving average and looking strong just holding its ground now and setting up nicely for its next move higher again soon.

CMED 06/08 Test BO 22.90 +0.82 23.04 28.85 385K 750K 22.32
Buy Not Issued. Nice rebound for CMED off its 200 day SMA in the nick of time. On low volume still but holding up well at key support and need to see it keep up the good work from here now.

CREE 06/11 Test BO 28.81 +0.21 29.77 34.31 997K 2.2M 27.69
Buy Not Hit. Quiet gains for CREE Thursday in a dreary market once again. On fading below average volume struggling at its 18 day EMA as resistance now along with its early May highs so needs to break through here if it wants our buy.

CSUN 06/16 Test BO 4.60 -0.37 5.44 6.95 1.4M 1.5M 5.06
Buy Not Hit. Had to hold its ground at the 18 day EMA just under 5.0 and broke right through it Thursday on fading above average volume so dropped it with CSUN back into the negative side of things.

DBC 05/13 Test BO 23.40 +0.03 22.11 25.44 1.8M 2.5M 23.22
Current. Stepped laterally along the 18 day EMA on fading below average volume. Holding on at this level nicely and needs to keep it up. If it slips its in big trouble.

DO 05/26 Cup hdl 87.44 -0.54 79.64 89.94 2.1M 3.5M 86.58
Current. Doji step lower for DO on fading below average volume to the 18 day EMA now as its testing low for this mid June pullback. Shaky market and a rough week so far so need to see DO hold its ground here.

DRYS 04/21 BO 6.28 0.00 7.19 8.97 21M 35M 9.84
Current. Stepped laterally along the 90 day SMA and May lows. Key support here and have to see DRYS continue to hold up at these level until stronger trade can take it higher again or it gets canned.

EDU 06/08 Asc Bse 63.52 -0.39 58.21 66.95 385K 850K 59.88
Current. Gapped lower with a doji on below average trade. Looking to be a quick test off the high from Wednesday with this low trade here before it back on its feet again. Nice.

EOG 06/09 DB hdl 72.10 -1.15 75.02 86.95 2.6M 5M 72.89
Current. Sold off the 18 day EMA on fading below average volume. Nearing key support now from its 50 day EMA and 200 day SMA at 70.0 where it looks great to hold up in this test now.

ESRX 06/02 Cup hdl 66.10 +2.49 64.88 74.95 3.1M 4M 61.21
Buy Not Issued. Need a test that holds 65 off this surge through the midweek sessions. On rising now average volume and will have to wait and see how things shape up now.

ESRX 04/27 FlyPlat 66.10 +2.49 61.11 69.95 3.1M 4.8M 62.38
Current.

FCX 03/05 Asc Bse 50.50 +0.02 33.58 38.95 17M 28M 53.11
Current. Doji step laterally along the 50 day EMA on average volume. Looking pretty solid here in this Asc bse but needs to hold its ground here or its in serious trouble.

FCX 12/10 Trnd Rv 50.50 +0.02 24.41 29.85 17M 26M 53.11
Current.

FLEX 06/06 DB hdl 4.24 +0.14 4.24 5.44 5.4M 9.8M 4.11
Current. Got a great bounce off the 18 day EMA on low volume for some modest gains. Like this DB hdl base with FLEX in solid shape for some more gains from here after the easy pullback to this level.

GR 06/15 Test 18 51.14 +0.65 51.77 5756.9 1.1M 2.2M 49.39
Buy Not Issued. The flag is still forming as it steadily tests through mid June, starting to move higher, and if it hits the new buy point it is a buy as it sets up nicely now.

HAL 05/28 Dbl btm 21.52 -0.31 23.62 29.88 18M 20M 22.44
Current. Holding the 50 day EMA and above May lows. That is the only reason we held it today as it gave a short step lower to this level at 21.5. On a bounce up to 22.50ish that fails it is a sell. If it posts a good gain and holds it, then we see if it can make it up to the top of the range. Do or die time for HAL though.

HITT 05/29 Test 50 34.22 -0.60 36.17 41.88 256K 325K 35.11
Current. Still making a higher low at support so left it as it sold back past its 50 day EMA. On above average trade here though so needs to perform well Friday.

HMSY 06/13 Asc Tri 39.16 +0.29 37.38 42.95 328K 600K 34.82
Buy Not Issued. Working higher after the gap higher. Didn't want to chase the gap so now we are waiting for HMSY to make the test. That is when we will move in so dropping it for now.

IBM 04/13 Test 20 106.33 -0.67 101.53 114.88 6.2M 15M 106.08
Current. Sold some more through Thursday on fading below average volume past its 18 day EMA. Testing steadily through mid June with light trade and looking good to hold up near 104 at its 50 day EMA and Asc bse trendline in that area as well.

ICE 06/15 Test 18 112.91 +3.92 114.21 129.95 1.5M 2.5M 110.57
Buy Not Hit. Looks pretty solid for the new buy if it continues the move in the a.m after this strong bounce off the low from Wednesday through its 18 day EMA.

Buy Not Issued. Surged up to 6.4 and fell from there to close back at the 10 day EMA. Shuffling around this testing low at the 10 day on below average volume and in good shape just hanging here waiting for volume to straighten out and give it a boost again.

Current. Short step lower with a doji for IR on fading below average volume. Nearing its 50 day EMA just under 21.0 which it looks great to hold as key support on this fading volume.

ISRG 06/16 Test BO 156.58 -1.41 161.22 194.95 778K 2M 153.48
Buy Not Issued. Stepped a bit lower again in this mid June test and now sits at the 18 day EMA. On low volume here and needs to hold up around this level or we drop it.

Exited. Rough session for MEOH stepped lower past its key 18 day EMA and highs from early May and early June at 13.0. Needed it to hold that level and couldn't do it so got the axe.

Buy Not Hit. Short step uphill here for MR on fading low volume.

Current. Moved laterally along the 18 day EMA as support after the great rebound from Wednesday. On fading below average volume and needs to keep up the good work here and press through its 10 day EMA at this level and the highs of August 08 here just under 5.5.

NETL 06/08 Cup hdl 36.12 -1.82 38.21 42.95 599K 975K 35.77
Current. Don't like this Thursday action with its hard move lower back to its 18 day EMA and prior June lows/late May highs. However, it can still hold and indeed the trend is pretty solid but needs to do it to stay out of trouble.

Current. Another energy stock trying to hold on here as OXY got a quiet step higher off its 50 day EMA. Not bad but needs more volume and on the attempt at a recovery move it has to show some strength in the move or we close it.

Buy Not Hit. Sold some more into Thursday off the doji gap lower from Wednesday. Keeping the test rolling lower here to the 50 day EMA now and its highs from early May so looking for PBR to make the testing low at this level now.

Buy Not Hit. Doji step higher here for CERN on fading below average volume. Trying to get things going higher again but volume is holding it back a good bit with CERN just looking top heavy here. Can't say we mind that though if it can get going lower again for this downside play.

DRI 06/10 HdShldr 33.54 +0.44 33.67 30.55 2.5M 3.7M 34.33
Current. Short step uphill here for DRI on just below average volume off its late May lows. At the 90 day SMA and looking for DRI to hold its ground now and get the ball rolling back to the downside again.

FAST 06/17 Dbl Top 33.73 +0.05 33.23 30.11 1.8M 2M 34.68
Buy Not Hit. Moved along its 90 day SMA as support here hanging at the mid April lows as well. Support giving it a good fight but FAST just needs stronger trade to really overpower these levels and its in good shape for the buy.

GOLD 06/13 Put 63.16 -2.04 67.42 63.02 1.7M 1.6M 69.72
Buy Not Hit. Dropped GOLD as it just steadily moves lower. Nothing really exciting here and letting it go to focus our attention on the stronger ones.

GS 06/15 Put 143.09 +3.36 142.76 133.65 11M 24M 144.88
A lower volume rebound from the Wednesday selling, stalling at the 10 day EMA and late May peak. Looking for a rollover from here to give us the entry. Want to see it head lower from here. Aggressive can move in as it turns down and is closing lower. More conservative is to enter below the Thursday low (138.9)

POT 05/20 Put 95.02 -0.57 113.74 105.76 12M 12M 97.78
Current. Stepped laterally along the gap and surge lower through Wednesday to take a bit of a breather Thursday. On above average volume still and looking strong so expecting some more downsides soon.

RIG 06/16 Dbl Top 77.27 -0.31 78.52 74.48 4M 6M 80.25
Buy Not Issued. Holding up still at weak supports from its early May highs. On low volume as well just wasting our time so dropping it.

SPY 06/15 Put 92.21 +0.66 92.34 90.08 211M 300M 93.24
Current. Bounced a bit with SP500 Thursday for some quiet gains. Now at its 18 day EMA getting a quick test here and needs to hold the moving average to get things back on the move downhill.

SPY 04/24 Put 92.21 +0.66 86.65 80.42 211M 350M 87.22
Current.

SPY 04/22 Put 92.21 +0.66 84.05 80.42 211M 350M 85.69
Current.
