Begin part 2 of 2
THE PLAYS
In each report we prepare full write-ups for those that look ready to move. If the move has been made already we discuss the play in the summary table. The purpose is to focus on the next good movers. New pre-announcement plays are found in that section.
Good movers Monday: CEDC; DCGN; ECIL; EMBT
NEW PLAYS: This section includes new plays from all sections other than pre-announcements.
Upside Leader Plays: These are stocks that have formed up well and can make us money. Not necessarily split stocks, but some can turn into split plays.
Play Date: 11/10/2003
CRAI (Charles River Assoc.--$33; +0.5; no options): Business management services
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/crai.html
STATUS: Double bottom w/pattern. Forming the handle of a 9 week base showing outstanding 4 to 0 accumulation (4 up weeks on rising volume to 0 down weeks on rising volume). A lot of buying ongoing during the base, setting the foundation for a good breakout. It may take 2 or 3 more days to form up the pattern completely. We will be patient and let it make the breakout move on solid trade.

Outstanding 6 to 0 accumulation in the base, setting a great foundation for the breakout. Outstanding money flow and a relative strength breakout, an indication of the strength of the stock. Very solid and a big breakout. Looking to take positions on a move up from here and again on a test of the move.
