THE PLAYS:
New Plays:
Downside:
EAT (Brinker Intl.--$28.33; -1.22; optionable): Restaurants
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/e/eat.html
STATUS: Put. EAT is under pressure, breaking below the 200 day MVA just below 31, testing the move and then falling again this week. Tuesday it broke below the 50 day MVA (29.24) on another spike in volume. As it did with the 200 day MVA, we anticipate EAT testing the 50 day MVA intraday and then rolling back over. Our favorite entry point on put plays is after a test of the support it just broke. There is usually that attempt to rally back; if it fails you know the stock is still in serious trouble.
Volume: 1.402M Avg Volume: 816.636K
BUY POINT: $28.65 Volume=1M Target=$26 Stop=$30.05
POSITION: EAT MF - Jan. $30p (-58 delta)

Continuing Plays:
Play Date: 11/30/2002
ISSX (Internet Security System--$24.11; -0.23; optionable): Internet security
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/i/issx.html
STATUS: New buy point. Testing. Held its ground Tuesday on even lower volume as ISSX held the 10 day MVA on the close, showing a very tight doji. Internet security is strong. Good test.
Volume: 1.34M Avg Volume: 2.017M
BUY POINT: $25.05 Volume=2.5M Target=$31 Stop=$23.3
POSITION: ISU DX - April $22.50c (72 delta) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/issx.html
Play Date: 11/09/2002
MXIM (Maxim Integrated--$41.02; -1.79; optionable): Semiconductor
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/m/mxim.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. MXIM moved over its 200 day MVA at 40 eight sessions back and is now selling back to test that move. Volume backed off Tuesday on the selling. MXIM can make up big chunks of real estate in a hurry so we are very interested in catching this one as it starts back up. We might be a bit early and it may test all the way back to 40 or even a bit lower intraday, but we want to be ready because it can make such fast, impressive moves. Money flow is still way out ahead of the price.
Volume: 9.283M Avg Volume: 10.467M
BUY POINT: New: After at test of 41, 42.05 (orig. $34.25) Volume=12M Target=$45 Stop=$39.94
POSITION: XIQ BG - Feb. $35c (74 delta) or XIQ EH (63 delta) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/mxim.html
Play Date: 11/12/2002
UTHR (United Therapeutics--$17.08; +0.03; no options): Drug manufacturer
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/u/uthr.html
STATUS: Cup w/handle. UTHR is still working on the handle as it was not able to make and hold the breakout. Tuesday it showed a doji right on top of the 10 day MVA as volume remained below average. This base formed on top of the prior 4-month base, a very good combination of patterns. Accumulation is excellent at 7 accumulation weeks to 2 distribution weeks. Looks ready for the next move.
Volume: 55.87K Avg Volume: 168.772K
BUY POINT: $17.65 Volume=295K Target=$21.45 Stop=$16.21
POSITION: - Stock (no option chain)
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/uthr.html
Play Date: 11/30/2002
SRNA (Serena Software--$18.83; -0.16; optionable): Business software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/s/srna.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. Held up very well in a weak tech market, holding the 10 day MVA on the low on lower volume. Nice tight doji, and looking for that breakout.
Volume: 331.701K Avg Volume: 434.5K
BUY POINT: $19.85 Volume=710K Target=$24.55 Stop=$18.46
POSITION: NHU EW - May $17.50c (66 delta, low OI) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/srna.html
Play Date: 11/30/2002
SYMC (Symantec--$43.64; -0.46; optionable): Internet software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/s/symc.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. Still holding up well, testing the 18 day MVA on the low (42.96) and recovering to hold the 10 day on the close. Very good test given the tech selling.
Volume: 2.813M Avg Volume: 4.065M
BUY POINT: $44.51 Volume=4.5M Target=$52 Stop=$41.98
POSITION: SYQ DH - April $40c (72 delta) and/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/symc.html
Play Date: 11/20/2002
ZBRA (Zebra Technologies--$64.77; -0.65; optionable): PC peripherals
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/z/zbra.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. Another tech stock holding up well on a down session, ZBRA held the 10 day MVA on the low (64.50) on lower volume. Very good test of the breakout still in progress.
Volume: 158.201K Avg Volume: 307.818K
BUY POINT: $66.35 Volume=475K Target=$74.75 Stop=$62
POSITION: ZBQ EM - May $65c (57 delta, low OI) and/or Stock
