New Plays:
PIXR (Pixar--$56.11; +1.31; optionable): Animated movies
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/p/pixr.html
STATUS: Breakout coming. After reporting strong earnings in October, PIXR blasted higher topping out near 56. It tested the 18 day MVA then rallied again. It looked as if it was running out of steam but then popped higher Wednesday on some rising, average volume. Accumulation in the base that started in August is 4 accumulation weeks to 2 distribution weeks. PIXR has recovered off the 18 day MVA test and is ready for a new high. What we need to do is wait for the breakout on some very strong volume.

BUY POINT: $56.74 Volume=775K Target=$65 Stop=$52.77
POSITION: PQJ KD - April $55c (61 delta, low OI) and/or Stock

ZBRA (Zebra Technologies--$64.80; +2.96; optionable): Computer peripherals
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/z/zbra.html
STATUS: Cup w/handle breakout. ZBRA is moving through a 3-year base and on Wednesday moved to breakout of the handle that formed the past month. This move comes on top of a smaller 5-month base that it broke out of in mid-October on massive volume. This last move comes on a test of the 18 day MVA (61), a logical place for a breakout test to launch higher. ZBRA started this Wednesday. Accumulation is positive in the last base at 6 accumulation weeks to 5 distribution weeks. Looking for a breakout soon to an all-time high.

CONTINUING PLAYS:
Upside:
Play Date: 11/16/2002
APH (Amphenol Corp.--$41.84; -0.16; optionable): Electronics
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/a/aph.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. APH moved over the 200 day MVA just over 40 last week and has come back to test that move, tapping the 10 day MVA on the Wednesday low and recovering to show a hammer doji. Volume rose on the move, indicating that buyers came in on the test lower. Looking for the run up from here with money flow still moving up ahead of the price on this pullback.
Volume: 305.3K Avg Volume: 219.863K
BUY POINT: $42.69 Volume=300K Target=$49.94 Stop=$39.7
POSITION: APH DH - April $40c (67 delta) and/or Stock

Play Date: 11/05/2002
CVD (Covance--$23.2; +0.08; optionable): Research services
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/cvd.html
STATUS: Breakout. Tried to make the move Wednesday, rallying to 23.87 on the high and then giving the move back. Volume moved above average. Not the best action, but can give us another move from here in a continued rallying market; may just have to catch its breath.
Volume: 488.3K Avg Volume: 389.181K
BUY POINT: $23.65 Volume=581K Target=$28 Stop=$21.75
POSITION: CVD ED - May $20c (68 delta, low OI) and/or Stock

Play Date: 11/12/2002
IMN (Imation--$41; +0.98; optionable): Business software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/i/imn.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. IMN is moving up the 18 day MVA (40) on mostly below average volume, as it consolidates its huge move up off the October low. Money flow continues to move up ahead of the price, and we like the fact that IMN is holding on the 18 day MVA on the lows. It has improved its action with this lateral movement, and we anticipate that break over 42 to a new high.
Volume: 349.9K Avg Volume: 477.136K
BUY POINT: Breakout: 42.05 Volume=700K Target=$48 Stop=$39.85

Play Date: 11/04/2002
ISSX (Internet Security System--$23.04; +1.86; optionable): Internet software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/i/issx.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. After the dump down to the 18 day MVA on the Tuesday low ISSX rebounded quickly, jumping to a new breakout high on rising, average volume. Super move and looks ready for more.
Volume: 2.018M Avg Volume: 2.041M
BUY POINT: New positions: $23.35 Volume=3M Target=$26.5 Stop=$20.05
POSITION: ISU DD - April $20c (65 delta) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/issx.html
Play Date: 11/13/2002
MSFT (Microsoft--$56.62; +1.76; optionable): Application software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/m/msft.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. MSFT is right back up to the breakout high at 57. Very good action and the HPQ news is going to help as HPQ sees 'stabilization in tech spending' and with the PC makers selling more units that means more Windows sales.
Volume: 38.369M Avg Volume: 45.366M
BUY POINT: New positions: 57.35 (orig. $56.15) Volume=50M Target=$62.55 Stop=$54.25
POSITION: MQF AW - Jan. $47.50c (68 delta) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/msft.html
Play Date: 11/18/2002
POSS (Possis Medical--$15.44; +1.34; optionable): Medical appliances
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/p/poss.html
STATUS: Breakout. After testing the move over the 200 day MVA on low volume, POSS gave the breakout on big volume. We moved in today, but it is still in a good buy position on the breakout.
Volume: 269.484K Avg Volume: 83.636K
BUY POINT: New positions: up to 15.75 (orig. $15.01) Volume=127K Target=$18.45 Stop=$13.75
POSITION: UPQ DV - April 12.50c (70 delta) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/poss.html
Play Date: 11/18/2002
RYAAY (Ryanair regional airlines--$44.07; +1.07; optionable): Regional airlines
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/r/ryaay.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. RYAAY is still moving laterally over the 10 day MVA, but it tapped close to that level on the Wednesday low (43) and started up in a stronger move. We were waiting for that 10 day to rise to meet the lateral move of the price, and that started the stock higher. We wanted some more volume, however, as it remained well below average. Looks ready to move but we need to see the further move on above average volume.
Volume: 212.5K Avg Volume: 269.636K
BUY POINT: 44.35 (orig. $43.55) Volume=425K Target=$50.35 Stop=$41.25
POSITION: ZQ CH - Mar. $40 c (67 delta, low OI) and/or Stock

Play Date: 11/09/2002
VIP (Vimple Communication--$30.2; +0.2; optionable): Wireless communications
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/v/vip.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. A big move early in the week was immediately reversed. Wednesday VIP held the 10 day MVA on the low (29.77) and showed a doji their on rising, strong volume. This looks as if it is the turn back up for VIP, but we need to see it continue on stronger volume.
Volume: 345.5K Avg Volume: 194.863K
BUY POINT: New positions: $30.75 (orig. $30.06) Volume=285K Target=$35 Stop=$28.45
POSITION: VIP DE - April $25c (75 delta, low OI) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/vip.html
Play Date: 11/16/2002
VSEA (Varian Semiconductor--$28.48; +2.06; optionable): Chip equipment
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/v/vsea.html
STATUS: Reverse head & shoulders. Up off the Tuesday doji on the 10 day MVA, VSEA attracted some more volume though still below average. Money flow is shooting up ahead of the price. A short series of higher lows along the short term MVA is promising.
Volume: 869.985K Avg Volume: 1.042M
BUY POINT: New positions: $28.95 (orig. $28.03). Volume=1.4M Target=$33 Stop=$25.96
POSITION: UES BE - Feb. $25c (66 delta, low OI) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/vsea.html
Play Date: 10/10/2002
VZ (Verizon Communications--$39.05; +1.06; optionable): Telecom service - - can you hear it?
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/v/vz.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. Up over the 200 day MVA (38.38) Wednesday on some rising though still below average volume. VZ has been moving in a lateral consolidation along the 18 day MVA the past three weeks and this looks as if it could be the start of the next leg (after Friday's jump was thwarted). Money flow continues to run up well ahead of the stock price as it moved laterally.
Volume: 7.859M Avg Volume: 8.267M
BUY POINT: New positions: 39.55 (orig. $34.75) Volume=10M Target=$45 (initial) Stop=$37.35
POSITION: VZ AG - Jan. $35c (68 delta) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/vz.html
Play Date: 11/14/2002
WFR (Memc Electronic--$7.93; +0.43; no options): Semiconductors
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/w/wfr.html
STATUS: Cup w/handle breakout. Every so close to the breakout point Wednesday, WFR tapped 8.05 on the high and backed off. It held most of the move and did so on rising, above average volume. Money flow continues to rally ahead of the stock price. Solid accumulation at 8 accumulation weeks to 5 distribution weeks, very solid.
Volume: 247.8K Avg Volume: 195.136K
BUY POINT: $8.06 Volume=325K Target=$9.94 Stop=$7.25
POSITION: Stock
