Downside:
Play Date: 09/07/2004
SVU (Supervalu--$27.18; +0.16; optionable): Wholesale food.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/s/svu.html
STATUS: Put. SVU peaked in June and has sold below the 18 day EMA (27.91). It has used that moving average as resistance on the entire drop. Friday it tapped the 18 day and Tuesday it tried to make the break over that resistance but failed. Volume failed also, fading well below average. Looking for it to roll over from here and continue the trend lower. Looking for a gain in the 42%ish range.
Volume: 546.4K Avg Volume: 748.181K
BUY POINT: $26.88 Volume=850K Target=$25.32 Stop=$27.22
POSITION: SVU VF - Oct. $30p (-90 delta)

Play Date: 09/07/2004
TEK (Tektronix--$28.80; +0.45; optionable): Scientific & technical instruments
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/t/tek.html
STATUS: Put. Struggling below the 50 day EMA (29.55) for the past three weeks and is now struggling below the 18 day EMA (29.01). Friday it sold below that level on much stronger volume, Tuesday it tried to move over that level but failed on the close. Could not participate in the market rally Tuesday, so we are looking for it to continue selling when the market move weakens.
Volume: 341.5K Avg Volume: 531.09K
BUY POINT: $28.55 Volume=600K Target=$26.75 Stop=$28.88
POSITION: TEK VG - Oct. $30p (-66 delta)

Upside:
Play Date: 09/07/2004
AVL (Aviall--$21.35; +0.93; optionable): Aerospace/defense
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/a/avl.html
STATUS: Cup. Volume is surging as AVL makes the breakout move from an 8 week cup base that formed right on top of the 50 day EMA (19.39). This is the second strong volume spike in 4 sessions. Strong 3 to 1 accumulation in the pattern shows buyers moving in as it took a breather. Money flow is shooting higher, leading price to the upside. Looking for the price to continue following the money flow higher.
Volume: 286.4K Avg Volume: 158.818K
BUY POINT: $21.52 Volume=175K Target=$24.68 Stop=$20.97
POSITION: AVL LD - Dec. $20c (75 delta) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ci/avl.html
Play Date: 09/07/2004
STLD (Steel Dynamics--$34.20; +1.86; optionable): Steel & iron
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/s/stld.html
After Hours: $34.10
STATUS: Breakout. Volume surged as STLD broke out from an 8 week triangle that formed over the 50 day EMA (30.43), making higher and higher lows above that level. Accumulation in the base is positive at 2 to 1, indicating net buyers as it took a breather from another good breakout in June. Relative strength is making the breakout as well, a good corroboration of the price move. Looking to start positions on a further move higher on some good trade and then again on a successful test.
Volume: 1.722M Avg Volume: 748.318K
BUY POINT: $34.38 Volume=750K Target=$39 Stop=$33.55
POSITION: RQL BG - Feb. $35c (50 delta) &/or Stock
