New Plays:
Play Date: 05/14/2003
AETH (Aether Systems--$4.01; -0.07; no options): PC networking and communication
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/a/aeth.html
STATUS: Cup w/handle. AETH is testing the breakout from a 5-month base sporting solid 6 to 3 accumulation (6 up weeks on rising volume to 3 down weeks on rising volume). It surged off the 18 day MVA (3.80) after testing that level, and has now pulled back to test the 10 day MVA, tapping that point on the intraday low (3.90) and then rebounding on the close. Solid accumulation and solid money flow have set the stage for a good breakout move.
Volume: 421.815K Avg Volume: 162.363K
BUY POINT: $4.25 Volume=244K Target=$5.12 Stop=$3.95
POSITION: - Stock

Play Date: 05/14/2003
CELG (Celgene--$29.84; +1.01; optionable): Biotechnology
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/celg.html
STATUS: Ascending triangle. After breaking out of a 4-month double bottom spanning December to March, CELG had formed the current triangle the past 1.5 months on top of that breakout. We like these combination patterns as they do a good job of shaking out the sellers and setting a solid foundation for further moves higher. Wednesday CELG broke higher from the pattern on stronger volume. Accumulation in the short base is 2 to 1, 7 to 1 in the double bottom. That is a solid foundation indeed. We are ready to get in on this move.
Volume: 4.107M Avg Volume: 1.212M
BUY POINT: $30.12 Volume=1.8M Target=$36.15 Stop=$27.96
POSITION: LQH JF - Oct. $30c (55 delta) &/or Stock

Continuing:
Play Date: 05/07/2003
ASCL (Ascential Software--$3.7; +0.01; no options): Application software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/a/ascl.html
STATUS: Flying plateau. The plateau has turned into a nice, orderly test of the 18 day MVA, holding right at that level and showing a tight doji Wednesday as volume fell back to average. Still a very nice test of the breakout from the 4.5 month flat base. Good accumulation, solid money flow still up ahead of the price. Looking for a strong move up from here on a sharp volume increase. We have added an aggressive buy point given the deeper test of the breakout.
Volume: 1.224M Avg Volume: 1.066M
BUY POINT: Aggressive: 3.85; Breakout: $4.05 Volume=1.7M Target=$4.96 Stop=$3.77
POSITION: - Stock

Play Date: 04/24/2003
IART (Integra Lifesciences--$26.45; +0.14; optionable): Biotechnology
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/i/iart.html
STATUS: Flying plateau. After blasting higher off the 10 day MVA in April, IART is moving laterally, holding over 26 on very low volume as the 10 day MVA has now rising to meet the price. The very tight trading range, flat lateral move, and low volume are very good indications for another leg higher. Excellent accumulation and money flow.
Volume: 128.002K Avg Volume: 396.909K
BUY POINT: New: $27 (orig. $26.25) Volume=485K Target=$32 Stop=$25.45
POSITION: UJI IE - Sept. $25c (62 delta) &/or Stock
