POST-SPLIT

Play Date: 01/22/2004
ANPI (Angiotech Pharmaceutical--$27.76; +0.79; optionable): Drugs. Split 1/30/2004
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/a/anpi.html
STATUS: Testing breakout. ANPI was surging for us to start February, but got sidetracked in the mid-week market selling. The selling was on lighter volume and it held over the 10 day MVA (26.78), however, and then Friday was jumping back up on rising, above average volume. That was a good showing of strength and it looks ready for additional positions. Strong money flow and a relative strength breakout. Looking to averaging up into this winner on another strong volume move.
Volume: 852.917K Avg Volume: 713.681K
BUY POINT: New: $27.92 (orig. $26.06) Volume=528K Target=$29.89 Stop=$26.62
POSITION: AUJ FJ - June $50c (58 delta) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cs/anpi.html

Play Date: 02/04/2004
ERES (Eresearch Tech--$35.36; +0.35; optionable): Medical labs
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/e/eres.html
STATUS: Testing the breakout. ERES continues to work laterally over the short term MVA, showing a doji Friday over the 10 day MVA (34.67). That doji on the candlestick pattern tells us to be ready as ERES may be ready to make the break higher from this three week move that followed the breakout from an 11 week cup base in January. The stock has held up very well during the recent market selling, with a relative strength reading superior to other stocks. Just waiting for a high volume surge that holds toward the close.
Volume: 989.441K Avg Volume: 1.481M
BUY POINT: $36.45 Volume=2.2M Target=$43.75 Stop=$34.22
POSITION: UDB FG - June $35c (58 delta) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cs/eres.html

Play Date: 02/05/2004
SYMC (Symantec--$39.96; +0.21; optionable): Internet security software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/s/symc.html
STATUS: Flying plateau. Still working laterally over the 10 day MVA (39.14) on low, below average volume. This pattern is a consolidation pattern, and it is a pattern of strength as it shows no one wants to sell out of the stock, thus the tight, lateral move until it can catch its breath and break higher. SYMCE broke out of a 2 month flat base in January and rallied up to 40. It has spent the past 2 weeks moving laterally over the 10 day MVA on lower and lower, below average volume. SYMC is making a ton of money in computer protection business, and these patterns show a stock is very strong as it refuses to give up its gains. That is shown in the relative strength that broke out as it moved laterally. Just marking some time before it breaks higher and we move in.
Volume: 3.365M Avg Volume: 4.763M
BUY POINT: $40.32 Volume=6M Target=$46.48 Stop=$38.76
POSITION: SYQ GH - July $40c (53 delta) &/or Stock
