THE PLAYS
New Plays for Monday:
We will resume full write-ups on Monday. Here are some stocks that we find very interestesting to start the week.
New post-splits:
MMSI (Medical instruments; $21.50): Testing the 50 day MVA. Broke out in early July and ran up to 24 to end November in a great breakout and run. It has now made its test of the 50 day MVA (20.61), coming back on mostly lower volume to test that level this month. It has shown some good volume around that level, popping up off the 50 day on some rising though still below average volume trade Friday. A recent split play, and a nice place to move in at the 50 day as it tests that level and finds support. A buy over 22 on volume of 260K or better.
HAR (High end electronic equipment; $70.80): Split to start the month, HAR has since worked laterally, holding the 18 day MVA (70.11) as it does, forming something of a short, 4 week ascending triangle. Friday it showed a doji over the 18 day MVA, again on very low trade, a characteristic of this lateral move. Looking for some volume to come in as it jumps off of this level for a solid $5 to $6 trade. Given the price, looking at some February $70 options (HAR BN, 58 delta) to leverage the position. Looking to enter on a move over 71.78 on volume in the 400K range.
IFIN (Asset Management; $38.42): Has formed an 11 week base that has used the 50 day MVA (35.83) as support as it makes a series of rising lows with a scontstnat top neare 38.50. The pattern is an ascending traingle, a signature pattern that can yield explosive breakout moves. Accumulation in the pattern is a solid 2 to 0. Volume shot higher Tuesday as IFIN moved toward a breakout. It faded back to end the week, but it looks ready to make the breakout move. A buy over 38.75 on volume of 700K or better.
