THE PLAYS
Good movers Tuesday: BABY; EENC; GIVN; SAPE; SNDA
NEW PLAYS:
Upside:
Play Date: 10/12/2004
PLMD (Polymedica--$32.73; +1.02; optionable): Drugs
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/p/plmd.html
After Hours: $32.57
STATUS: Ascending triangle. PLMD is making the breakout move from its 12 month base formed mainly along the 50 day EMA (30.42). Accumulation in the base is a strong 13 to 6 (13 up price weeks on rising volume to 6 down price weeks on rising volume), setting the stage for the breakout and run as it shows net buyers during the base. Solid money flow and relative strength making a breakout as well. Looking to pick up some positions on a further move then some more on the breakout test.
Volume: 353.92K Avg Volume: 180.454K
BUY POINT: $32.88 Volume=250K Target=$37.78 Stop=$31.97
POSITION: PM CG - Mar. $35c (42 delta) &/or Stock

Play Date: 10/12/2004
YUM (Yum! Brands--$42.02; +0.67; optionable): Restaurants
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/y/yum.html
STATUS: Test breakout. YUM broke from an 18 week base in September, consolidated, then rallied to 42. It has spent the last week easing back to test that move, landing on the 18 day EMA (40.95) this week. Volume backed down until Tuesday when it jumped higher on a surge in solid, above average volume. Money flow is leading higher and relative strength is breaking out ahead of the stock's next move; bullish sign. Looking for a continued solid volume move higher to enter positions.
Volume: 1.304M Avg Volume: 1.053M
BUY POINT: $42.24 Volume=1.2M Target=$47.55 Stop=$41.05
