NEW PLAYS: This section includes new plays from all sections other than pre-announcements.
Post Split:
Play Date: 01/07/2004
COH (Coach--$38.06; -0.71; optionable): Handbags, etc.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/coh.html
STATUS: Test 50 day MVA. COH split back in October and rallied up to 40 to start December, moving well ahead of the holiday numbers. After that it needed a rest, dropping to the 50 day MVA (35.99). It held 50 day MVA, an indication of institutional support. It has held that level and worked laterally the past three weeks. The past two sessions volume has started to jump. COH announced its December results were better than expected. It tested the 18 day MVA on the Wednesday low (37.20) and rebounded. Looking for a break over the recent highs to enter.
Volume: 3.722M Avg Volume: 1.785M
BUY POINT: $39.25 Volume=2.7M Target=$47 Stop=$37.38
POSITION: COH EH - May $40c (54 delta) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cs/coh.html
Play Date: 01/07/2004
ERES (Eresearch Tech--$30.71; +2.69; optionable): Electrocardiographic related services to the medical industry
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/e/eres.html
STATUS: Double bottom. A leader in 2002 and surging in 2003, ERES made us some great money. It needed a rest and after peaking in late October it started the current 10 week base. It is on the way back up and Wednesday was upgraded. That helped the stock jump up on strong, above average volume, clearing the 'hump' in the middle of the double bottom (29.93). That is a breakout from this type of pattern, and we are looking to take positions on a further move. It may then form a handle as it reaches toward 32 to 33. After that we will add to positions on a breakout from that handle. A longer term winner that looks ready to start the next leg. We will give it a chance if it can continue the move on strong volume.
Volume: 2.853M Avg Volume: 1.418M
BUY POINT: $31.25 Volume=2.1M Target=$37.58 Stop=$29.06
POSITION: DBO FF - June $30c (60 delta) &/or Stock

PRE-ANNOUNCEMENT PLAYS
Play Date: 01/03/2004
MBT (Mobile Telesys--$86.65; -0.11; optionable): Russian wireless communications
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/m/mbt.html
STATUS: Cup w/handle. MBT is forming the handle to its 13 week base. It shot higher last week and Monday on strong trade. It has spent the past two sessions coming back to test that move on lower volume. This is the handle formation that shakes out the short term profit takers. It may take another session or two to complete the handle, but it looks ready after that.
Volume: 130.4K Avg Volume: 258.818K
BUY POINT: $88.39 Volume=412K Target=$99.95 Stop=$83.32
POSITION: MBT FQ - June $85c (54 delta) &/or Stock
