Current. The key move was the gap over the June and early July peak. That sets a new playing level and now how it reacts to that is key.

Buy Not Issued. JWN getting the axe Thursday with this below average volume move higher through the session. Had to see it test off the Wednesday breakout and didn't get it so dropping until we get one from JWN.

Current. Doji step lower here for MCD on fading above average volume.

Current. Short step uphill for PLCE on below average volume. Nearing its 50 day SMA as resistance along with the early June lows at 30.0 and looking to test a bit from here as it certainly doesn't seem to have the strength it needs to press on through.

Current. Critical area for SBUX on fading low volume as it gave a doji step laterally along these highs from early April and the lows from September 08 so time to put the pedal to the metal.

Buy Not Issued. Still looking for a test of this move back near 21 or 10 day EMA just below it as SMSC pushed higher again on below average volume. Should get it soon as trade drops out in this move now with fading momentum as well.

Entered today. Gave us the buy on this solid move higher through Thursday on rising high volume. At the 50 day SMA and its May lows and in great shape to continue on higher in this strong Dbl btm base.

Current. High volume for XXIA in this move higher through Thursday with a nice bounce off the 10 day EMA. Like the DB hdl base as well and XXIA looking good to keep the move going at this rate.

Current. Stepped laterally along support from the 10 day EMA here on rising now just above average volume. Still holding its 18 day EMA as resistance though so looking good to turn lower again soon.

Current. This is where it needs to start faltering in this range from May's scattered levels of resistance in the low 70s. How it tests the late June peaks will be important tomorrow as well which sit at 70 so lots for RIMM on the to do list.

SCHN 07/14 Put 54.10 +1.24 52.77 45.78 717K 1.2M 55.65
Buy Not Hit. Let it rally to key resistance at 55 from the late June lows and early May highs and see if it rolls over. Moved buy point as well on SCHn after this Thursday move higher.

Current. Shorts getting squeezed a bit on XTO with this move higher through Thursday breaking its June lows and the 50 day EMA and now at a critical level here from the gapping low of early May as resistance.
