Begin Part 2 of 2
THE PLAYS:
Good movers: WTW shot higher on strong volume and reported good earnings after hours. VFC nice move on nice volume. HGSI hit the target.
Monday plays:
NBTB: Another doji on very low volume. Looks ready.
USNA: Very tight as well, showing a doji on the 10 day MVA on low volume.
VFC: Rallying higher on even stronger volume.
WTW: Great move on strong volume.
Best Plays:
1) BRKL: Making a nice move.
2) DJX: Ready to make the move once the FOMC is finished.
3) Watchlist: WEDC looked good on better volume. ACL is making a lower volume test. SBIC looks great. TELK looks ready to make the move back up.
NEW PLAYS:
Upside:
BRKL (Brookline Bancorp--$12.05; +0.5; optionable): Savings & Loan
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/b/brkl.html
STATUS: Flat base/saucer base. BRKL rallied up to June and has since corrected back, moving in a tight, lateral consolidation through the July selling. Friday it started to move and Monday it made a big volume break higher. Accumulation is excellent at 4 rising weeks on rising volume to 1 declining week on rising volume.
Volume: 1.455M Avg Volume: 725.318K
BUY POINT: $12.11 Volume=1.1M Target=$15.12 Stop=$11.16
POSITION: URK JB - Oct. $10c (77 delta, no OI) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cd/brkl.html
$DJX (1/100 Dow Industrials--$86.89; -0.56; optionable): Dow Jones mini
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/$/$djx.html
STATUS: Ascending wedge. After making a higher low in early August, the Dow is right back at the steady high near 87. This tracks the Dow and it may test the 18 day MVA (85.29) before making another try at a run. The FOMC meeting may provide the catalyst either way once the speculation becomes certainty.
Volume: 1.04M Avg Volume: 0
BUY POINT: $87.72 Volume=0 Target=$92.55 Stop=$84.95
POSITION: DJX ID - Sept. $82c (72 delta)
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cd/$djx.html
Revisited:
INTL (Inter-Tel--$20.78; +0.01; optionable): Telecom processing systems
Play Date: 08/05/2002
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/i/intl.html
STATUS: Double bottom w/handle. INTL Tested lower again on lower, below average volume. It is forming a 2-week handle to its pattern, a slow deliberate handle capping off the 6.5 month base. Looking for a high volume breakout here.
Volume: 120.7K Avg Volume: 214.636K
BUY POINT: $21.49 Volume=375K Target=$24.65 Stop=$19.99
POSITION: TPQ JW - Oct. $17.50 c (77 delta, low OI) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cd/intl.html

CUB 07/06 Cup 20.75 +0.75 0 0 56K 0 0
Trying to form a reverse head and shoulders off the July low between the 200 day MVA and the 50 day MVA. A break over 21.40 on volume near 190,000 would be an entry point.
WM 08/03 A Wedge 38.5 +0.58 37.55 42.25 4.3M 5.2M 38.85
Current. Making the move. Volume could be better.

We have made a change to the table. Instead of average volume we have included the target volume.
