THE PLAYS
New Plays for Wednesday:
No full write-ups given the short session. Here are some stocks that we find very interestesting for Wednesday. Many moved on strong volume and that sets them up for some positions Wednesday if they can continue on.
NTOP (Internet telephone; $6.60); Working through a 13 week cup base, charging higher on strong trade Tuesday after it tested the 200 day MVA in late November. Looks ready to run up to the complete the right side of the base up near 7.50. Can move in on a further move for a run up to there (11%) and then let it breakout. 5:3 accumulation. Looking at on move over 6.72.
ISSC (Scientific & Technical instruments; $17.78): Nice lateral 3 week consolidation of a big mid-November breakout. Held the 18 day MVA on the lateral move and surged Tuesday on big volume. Solid 2:0 accumulation. A buy over 18.
QGENF (Biotechnology, $11.87): Cup. Trying to come off the bottom of its 15 week cup base, showing some strong trade Tuesday. It is at the top of a 3 month range that marks the bottom of the base. Accumulation is solid at 5:3. Looking for a break over 12.12 to enter.
TSN (Poultry; $13.98): 3 month flat base with strong 4:1 accumulation. With the mad cow news this stock could finally make the breakout. It was up some after hours. A move over $14.50. Have to be nimble. Take 10% to 15% and move on.
CONTINUING:
HOMS: Moving on strong volume. Ready for the next move.
