AAPL 04/15 Test 20 140.02 -2.81 119.69 132.77 13M 25M 133.48
Current. The move is not necessarily over as it tests back from the prior high here after gapping lower and selling hard with the market Thursday. Testing here to close the week and needs to hold and resume the move higher again soon off this key level of support at its 50 day EMA and uptrend line in the Asc bse.

ARST 06/30 Pennant 16.87 -0.51 17.91 21.54 652K 1M 16.66
Buy Not Issued. Doji gap lower and some modest downsides through Thursday for ARST. Continues this test from the Monday high at the mid June peaks and now sits near its 50 day EMA and late May low so needs to hit the brakes.

BEN 06/25 Test 50 69.74 -2.41 71.80 79.95 1.4M 3.4M 68.11
Current. Gapped lower and sold off resistance from its 18 day EMA. On rising low volume and nearing the 50 day EMA and its late May high at 67.5 where it needs to hold.

BGG 07/01 Rolling 13.50 0.00 13.64 16.95 793K 900K 12.69
Buy Not Hit. Certainly held up well Thursday as it just held flat with a doji. Of course it should after the selling, but it is also at support from the April-June lows and still looking for that bounce despite the market.

BLKB 06/19 Cup hdl 16.00 -0.94 15.84 18.84 191K 335K 14.77
Current. Sold a good bit Thursday on just below average trade to finish the week negatively after a nice easy pullback and surge through Wednesday. Light trade and at the highs from May and June and the 10 day EMA so needs to hit the brakes.

BNI 06/24 Test 50 71.14 -1.91 75.31 88.95 4.1M 3.5M 70.88
Exited. BNI in awful shape Thursday. Rising high volume as it gapped lower to clear its 200 day SMA and June lows as key support, then sold from there as resistance and broke the 50 day EMA so had to give it the axe. Wow.

BRCM 06/24 Test 50 25.12 +0.05 24.68 29.74 9.9M 18M 23.44
Buy Not Issued. Excellent relative strength on a very weak market tape as it gave a strong move higher through its 18 day EMA as resistance. Just the fact that it posted gains in a cruddy session Thursday was impressive but on good volume now and if it can keep it up next week in this solid move higher through late June and now July we're in.

CELG 06/10 Test 50 46.73 -1.37 44.97 49.95 3.7M 7.8M 45.88
Current. Modest upsides through the earlier bits of the week before it really got going lower here. Thursday was rough as CELG fell hard after a gap lower and broke its 10 day EMA at the close and now sits at its 18 day EMA and early June high so needs to hold.

CMG 06/23 Asc Tri 79.42 -3.29 80.67 90.95 523K 950K 78.21
Current. CMG having a rough day as well with the market bringing it back to the 50 day EMA once again. Consolidating some more along these levels since mid June as a testing low and needs volume to really help it higher again in the Asc tri. Has to hold its ground here first though.

CREE 06/11 Test BO 29.29 -0.18 29.86 34.31 915K 2.2M 27.77
Current. Doji gap lower over modest supports Thursday after a consolidation week for CREE. Broke the 18 day EMA and 10 day EMA on the gap and now holds the 18 day as resistance and needs a recovery soon to get out of some trouble here. Held up relatively well though all things said and done.

CTRP 06/24 Dbl btm 44.60 -2.06 43.38 49.85 792K 2M 43.97
Current. Managed to hold the 10 day EMA with a rebound but watch out here: low volume double top and have to see CTRP hit the brakes in this area with its 18 day EMA and 10 day EMA and mid June high here around 43.

EDU 06/08 Asc Bse 63.87 -1.27 58.21 66.95 200K 850K 63.88
Current. Testing some more into the close of this week on fading low volume now. At the 18 day EMA and at a key level for this Asc bse at the uptrend line so needs to find supports here.

Buy Not Hit. Hard gap lower for ESI over its key 50 day EMA and 200 day SMA Thursday. On fading low volume and still has its key level here at the highs of late 07, early 08 and late 08 as well as that deep reach lower from March 09 here so needs to hold there or it's gone.

ESRX 04/27 FlyPlat 66.25 -1.82 61.11 69.95 2.3M 4.8M 64.98
Current. Sold a bit through Thursday on fading below average volume. Did well holding its ground here and looking good to hit the brakes in this area now especially with the fading volume.

FLEX 06/06 DB hdl 4.11 -0.21 4.24 5.44 5.4M 9.8M 4.11
Current. Gapped lower and sold a good bit through Thursday breaking its 18 day EMA on the way down as key support. On low volume here and needs to hold the 4 dollar mark at the 50 day SMA and lows from June and late April high.

FXC 07/01 Trnd Rv 85.92 -1.00 87.22 91.85 226K 330K 85.65
Buy Not Hit. Dropped FXC with its gap lower over the 50 day EMA. Finally got over the level Wednesday in the gap higher and gave it right back here. Had to see it hold the line at the moving average and couldn't so let it go.

Current. Modest bit of downsides here for GR Thursday selling from its 18 day EMA after consolidating nicely through earlier in the week. On rising just below average volume and at key support here from its June low and late May high as well so game time for it now.

Current. HITT hit hard Thursday in the market selling as it broke its 50 day EMA on the way down. Not much volume though and now at its June lows as key support so time to hold its ground.

Current. On below average volume as it stepped lower Thursday in this weeks pullback to the late June lows. Key level for HWCC to hold again and looking for it to do just that.

Buy Not Issued. Dropped IBM as it gapped lower over key support from its 50 day EMA and late June lows all at 104 and sold from there as key resistance then. Ouch.

Current. Coming back for a second test of the 38% Fibonacci at 106. If it bounces there that is a solid signal and time for ICE to get the job done in a rough close to this week now.

ICE 05/07 Test BO 109.14 -2.58 94.89 111.65 1.5M 3M 111.88
Current.

IDTI 06/16 Test BO 6.21 -0.03 6.07 7.87 2.7M 4M 5.62
Current. Doji step laterally along the high from Wednesday as IDTI held up very nicely against the market garbage from Thursday. On low volume just taking it easy here for now and looks great to get things heading higher again next week.

Current. On low volume as it gapped lower and sold through its 18 day EMA in some modest losses Thursday. Nearing key supports now from its June lows and early May high all at 44.0ish so that is where it needs to hold next week.

IDXX 05/16 Test 20 44.79 -1.00 41.65 47.55 315K 700K 43.97

INT 06/27 Trnd Rv 39.82 -1.83 40.42 47.88 435K 850K 39.78
Current. Gapped back from some resistance at the late June rebounding high and early May peaks all at 42, but at some support here from the 50 day EMA and mid June lows. Volume was also low in the move so haven't lost all hope here just yet.

ISRG 06/10 Rev HS 158.71 -4.39 166.54 194.95 624K 2M 153.48
Current. Gapped lower and gave a step downhill from there to close with some modest losses in this Thursday doji. On rising low volume and has very strong support still at 150 even from its mid May and June lows and 50 day EMA AND the highs from late April so not sweating bullets or blood here.

Current. JOYG dealing with some of the market crud Thursday as it gapped lower over key support it held very nicely this week from its 18 day EMA. Back near its 50 day EMA and mid June lows now though so time to hold.

MPWR 04/10 Test 20 22.06 -0.52 18.88 22.94 382K 625K 20.68
Current. Short step downhill here for MPWR on fading below average volume to the 10 day EMA, early June highs and now right at this key level of support from its mid 08 lows and gapping low from late 07 so has to hold its ground here.

MR 07/01 Test BO 27.40 -0.72 28.32 33.88 847K 1.2M 27.08
Buy Not Hit. On just below average trade as it continued lower through the close of the week and stopped right at the 10 day EMA and mid June highs. Volume dropped out significantly though and MR has key supports at its 18 day EMA and October 08 lows and April 09 highs there as well all at 26.4.

MR 06/17 Test BO 27.40 -0.72 26.53 31.45 847K 1.5M 26.11
Current.

Current. On rising low volume Thursday as it continues to hold here at resistance from its 18 day EMA and late June lows. Not much trade though and still holding the key level in its uptrend line in the Asc bse as well as its 50 day SMA here so haven't blown an artery exactly just yet.

MT 06/27 Test 50 31.89 -1.27 33.77 39.95 4.3M 9M 31.41
Buy Not Issued. A test of the 50 day EMA and the June lows all just above 30.0 might be the best bet for an entry on this one as it gapped lower and sold to the close again Thursday so will have to keep an eye on it for the move now as it looks steady in this low volume pullback.

NETL 06/08 Cup hdl 35.73 -1.08 38.21 42.95 335K 975K 35.77
Current. Gapped lower and sold off resistance from its 18 day EMA. Modest downsides here to the close out the week on rising low volume and now nearing its 50 day SMA and late May highs at 35 so time to hit the brakes.

Current. Sold off the 90 day SMA on fading low volume breaking its 18 day EMA and 50 day EMA on the way down. Solid DB hdl base still so needs to hold up at the early and late June lows at 39.2.

PKE 06/23 Flag 19.25 -1.32 21.65 25.75 102K 150K 20.21
Current. Was down hard Thursday, but was holding decently then some very late sells hit and pushed it down. Gapped over key support from its 50 day EMA at the open and sold from there basically but not likely to stay here as it is right at some pretty serious support from the 200 day SMA, 90 day SMA and key lows way back from 05 here so will see if it can rebound from those late trades.

PMTI 06/27 Test BO 13.99 -0.78 14.82 17.91 239K 550K 13.78
Buy Not Issued. On below average volume Thursday with this step lower off resistance from its 18 day EMA. Now at the low June lows and has its 50 day EMA back near 12.5 as well so needs to hit the brakes.

PRFT 06/29 Asc Tri 6.76 -0.39 7.24 8.94 135K 260K 6.73
Buy Not Issued. Gapped lower and sold hard through Thursday as it broke the 50 day SMA and 18 day EMA on the way down. Still in a nice Asc tri base though so needs to hold up here at the uptrend line for that base and its 50 day EMA.

QCOM 06/24 Asc Tri 44.68 -0.48 44.48 52.65 13M 22M 43.38
Buy Not Issued. Gave another gap lower Thursday with a doji and now will see if it holds that support at 44 from the June lows and May highs and rebounds. Might give us a good trade. Changed the buy point.

SBUX 06/23 Test 50 13.39 -0.61 14.82 17.95 13M 18M 13.57
Current. Not recovering from that downgrade at all and sold hard through Thursday breaking its 50 day EMA and June lows. However, decided not to close it given it is near some support at 13ish from scattered May lows, late April lows and the highs from late October/early November of 08.

SCO 06/30 Trnd Rv 18.48 +1.17 17.11 19.88 2.8M 1.8M 15.98
Doji gap higher for SCO over its 18 day EMA as resistance. Pretty amazing given the market conditions and on high trade here so if it can keep up the good work we're in.

SFLY 06/30 Dbl btm 13.50 -0.36 14.11 16.94 235K 446K 12.96
Buy Not Hit. Stepped lower again Thursday to close out this week's pullback at the 50 day SMA. Nearing its key lows from June and late May as well as the 50 day EMA all at 13.0 where it looks solid to hold.

SIGM 04/29 Pennant 15.34 -1.10 13.14 16.22 831K 1M 15.91
Current. Managed to hold price support from March and June & the 50 day EMA at the close after some rough downsides so looking for a bounce and then how it handles 16 (resistance from the late June lows. If doesn't bounce then no point in keeping it.

STLD 06/29 Test 50 14.34 -0.34 14.54 18.45 5.1M 10M 13.52
Buy Not Issued. Moved buy point as it tests support here from its 50 day EMA now after this Thursday doji gap lower. On fading below average volume and at its June lows and early May highs as well so looking solid to hold.

SYK 06/27 Asc Tri 38.46 -1.29 41.39 46.95 2M 3M 38.96
Buy Not Hit. Hard move lower through Thursday for SYK on fading below average volume as it snapped through its 50 day EMA and mid June lows as key support so dropping for now and may flip this one to the downside.

Current. Gapped lower but bounced off support at 27 from its June lows and mid 08 highs so left it to see if the bounce can continue next week.

VARI 05/26 Asc Bse 38.31 -1.78 36.24 41.88 233K 450K 37.94

VCLK 06/18 Test BO 9.97 -0.80 11.38 14.42 1.6M 1.8M 10.36
Exited. On rising high volume as it gapped over its key 50 day EMA and late June lows as support, then used them as resistance at 10.5 and sold hard to the close. Just a nasty session overall for VCLK and had to let it go.

VITA 06/22 Flag 4.92 -0.18 5.12 6.25 407K 950K 4.72
Buy Not Issued. Modest move lower here for VITA off its 10 day EMA as resistance as it continues to test to the close of this week now. On low volume and at its late June lows so needs to hit the brakes here.

WFR 06/02 Test BO 17.49 -0.55 20.12 24.98 3.6M 8.5M 19.08
Current. Gapped lower and sold a bit Thursday to the 200 day SMA and its December 08 and January 09 highs as key support so now looking for it to hold support at 17 from its 90 day SMA and lows from late June and late May.

Current. Moved laterally along the 10 day EMA as it hangs here after some rough downsides through Tuesday. Just taking it easy for now consolidating a bit and waiting on stronger volume to really help it higher again in the DB hdl base. Held up so well here Thursday against the market crap. Nice.

Downside Plays
Stock Date Play Close +/- Pivot Tgt Vol TgtV Stop
AAP 06/20 Dbl Top 42.24 +0.15 42.27 36.39 1.7M 2.5M 42.11
Current. Stronger than you want to see with the indices losing 2% as it pressed higher through Thursday breaking resistance from its 50 day EMA and 18 day EMA. It is getting time; if it does not close down below the 50 day EMA on Monday time to consider selling it.

AKAM 06/27 Put 19.44 -0.80 19.62 17.97 4.9M 6M 20.04
Current. Sold hard Thursday with the market very nicely after a hard rebound Wednesday. 90 day SMA did a great job of holding it down and looks solid now back in the move lower.

AZO 06/27 Put 150.00 -2.76 149.15 141.05 734K 1.5M 153.32
Buy Not Hit. AZO looking good in the downsides Thursday as it sold off resistance from its 18 day EMA very nicely through the session. On below average volume and at the late May lows now and has its June lows just below this level as well so still has some work to do.

BWLD 06/20 HdShldr 32.04 -1.05 33.09 26.58 299K 725K 34.11
Current. Sold a good bit through Thursday off resistance from the 10 day EMA. Now at its June lows here and looking for BWLD to keep up the good work into next week but needs stronger volume first.

CME 06/29 Put 301.45 -6.82 317.67 297.00 882K 1.7M 324.11
Buy Not Issued. It is testing back to the 38% Fibonacci at 296 now and if it holds there then it is likely to try a bounce, so if in it they need to be aware of that. Very similar action in March and April as well and itt can also set up an ABCD pattern here but have to wait on that as it is still working on point D right now.

DIG 07/01 HdShldr 24.59 -1.98 26.48 24.05 7.7M 12M 27.76
Buy Not Hit. Gapped lower on us Thursday and sold away breaking its 90 day SMA. Will see if it bounces back up some to start next week and gives us a new entry point.

Current. Gapped lower and sold off the 18 day EMA on fading low volume. Now at its early June lows and the lows from May so key level here for DRI to press on through.

FAST 06/17 Dbl Top 31.90 -1.06 32.21 29.11 2.2M 2M 33.18
Current. Continued lower nicely through Thursday on rising above average volume. Broke its May and June lows as well in the move and looks solid to continue lower from here.

GENZ 06/25 Put 54.75 -0.67 55.72 51.45 2.4M 4.2M 56.21
Current. Gapped lower on rising low volume after some modest downsides through Wednesday. Like the pick up in trade here and if it can keep it up next week it will do well against the late June lows at 54.

GLD 06/20 HdShldr 91.25 -1.14 91.47 87.48 7.4M 15M 92.89
Buy Not Issued. Gapped well lower Thursday on fading low volume here as it broke its 90 day SMA, 18 day EMA and 50 day SMA on the gap. Not much trade here and at its 90 day SMA though so still has some work to do before we can get in.

GS 06/15 Put 143.49 -3.83 142.41 133.65 7.5M 24M 142.11
Current. On low volume as it broke lower through Thursday and snapped its 18 day EMA with ease. Not much trade here but getting the downsides going lower again very nicely.

NBL 06/30 Put 56.44 -3.35 58.77 55.25 1.5M 2.5M 60.22
Buy Not Issued. Gapped down on us and tanked from there without much of a good shot to get in so had to drop it. Darn.

PCU 06/30 HdShldr 19.59 -0.79 20.22 18.11 2.7M 5.5M 21.28
Buy Not Hit. The gap peed on our plays so dropping for now but still watching as it really got away from us in the hard Thursday session. Darn again.

PENN 06/22 Dbl Top 28.25 -1.01 27.68 24.12 612K 1M 29.87
Buy Not Hit. Modest downsides here for PENN on rising low volume as it gapped lower and sold through the session. Now at its 90 day SMA and the June/late May lows so needs to press on through for our buy.

PNRA 07/01 Des Tri 48.79 -1.74 50.91 58.95 630K 1.3M 49.36
Buy Not Hit. Not giving up on this even though it sold hard through Thursday and broke its 200 day SMA on the low trade: often a stock will break lower and look like a breakdown but then it jumps back Just as it did in May so have to keep a close watch on it here.

POT 05/20 Put 96.00 +5.10 113.74 105.76 15M 12M 91.38
Trailing Stop. Took the rest off as it held support from its 200 day SMA and lows from late June and bounced. Now looking at upside as it held the 78% retracement twice.

Entered today. On low volume here Thursday with its below average volume step lower. Still holding these late June lows but in solid shape for the move lower as it held resistance Thursday from its 50 day EMA once again.

SDS 06/20 Dbl Top 57.84 +2.99 57.88 61.35 35M 50M 56.22
Current. Gapped higher and climbed off support from the 18 day EMA up to its 50 day SMA as resistance. Low volume but good to see it heading higher as SP500 really struggles.

SPY 06/15 Put 89.81 -2.52 92.34 90.08 211M 300M 90.41
Current. Gapped well lower and sold hard off resistance from the 50 day SMA and mid June lows. Rising below average trade here and looking solid to continue lower from here.

SU 06/24 Dbl Top 28.45 -1.05 29.62 26.16 9.9M 15M 30.28
Current. Sold some more through Thursday on rising below average volume. 90 day SMA and the lows from May and June at 28.0 as hard support for SU to work on now.

SY 06/22 Put 30.46 -0.74 31.87 30.02 1.5M 1.5M 31.06
Current. SY in pretty solid shape here Thursday as it sold hard again with average volume. Continuing the downsides from June and in great shape to keep up the good work.

TEX 06/27 Put 11.51 -0.64 12.04 10.05 2.1M 4.2M 12.04
Current. Gapped lower and sold a good bit through Thursday. Shocking. Good move lower with the market here and at its late June lows so need to continue on lower and break the supports here.

XTO 06/29 Put 35.82 -1.51 37.40 34.75 8.3M 10M 37.55
Current. XTO with a hard jump lower over support from the 200 day SMA and 90 day SMA to hold them as resistance and post some nice downsides to the close. On rising above average volume here and looking solid to continue even lower from here.
