THE PLAYS

Good movers Wednesday: BEBE; CYTC; DGX; FDX; OPTN; TTC; UPS; UTX

New Post-Split Plays:

Play Date: 12/08/2004
CEDC (Central European District--$27.39; +0.68; no options): Distributor of alcohol in Poland
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/cedc.html
STATUS: Test breakout. Strong surge last week on tremendous volume as CEDC broke out from its 22 week double bottom with handle base. In the market selling this week it has come back to test the move on lower volume, tapping at the 10 day EMA (26.59) on the Wednesday low and rebounding for a gain. Volume did not follow the stock higher, however, something we will need to see rectified before we move into the play. Excellent 7 to 3 accumulation in the pattern set up the breakout as buyers were moving in to accumulate the stock during the consolidation. Money flow is screaming higher ahead of price, and we anticipate the stock turning back up and following it. Again, we need to see volume as it makes the move.
Volume: 113.652K Avg Volume: 175.272K
BUY POINT: $27.75 Volume=250K Target=$33.95 Stop=$26.45
POSITION: - Stock (no option chain)

New Pre-Announcement Plays:

Play Date: 12/08/2004
BIIB (Biogen Idec--$64.53; +3.06; optionable): Biotechnology. More details Thursday.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/b/biib.html
After Hours: $64.34
STATUS: Flat base. We watched BIIB form up the past several weeks and then watched it start to breakout Wednesday. Solid volume, clean break. Excellent 11 to 5 accumulation in the pattern (11 up price weeks on rising volume to 5 down price weeks on rising volume) shows buyers accumulating the stock during the consolidation, setting up the breakout and run. Wednesday it made the break higher. Now Strong money flow is leading. Ready to step in on a further move. It backed off a hair after hours; will look for a test of 64 & pick it up off that level.
Volume: 8.252M Avg Volume: 3.497M
BUY POINT: From the close: $65.12; Test 64, then 64.65 Volume=4.5M Target=$75 Stop=$63.44
POSITION: IHD DM - Apr. $65c (54 delta) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cs/biib.html

Continuing Pre-Announcement Plays:

CDWC: Be ready for this one.
Play Date: 11/30/2004
CDWC (CDW Computer Centers--$67.48; +0.72; optionable): Wholesale computer sales.
BACKGROUND: A frequent splitter before the bear market plunge in 2000, CDWC has finally fought back up to the $70 level where it announced regular splits.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/cdwc.html
STATUS: Cup w/handle. Tested 68 on the high but volume was not there and fell back. Looks great in the nice handle to the 9 month base that has formed in an almost textbook fashion (lower volume fade). Looks super but needs the volume on the move.
Volume: 557.446K Avg Volume: 894.636K
BUY POINT: New: $68.48 (orig. $67.72) Volume=1.3M Target=$75 Stop=$64.65
POSITION: DWQ DM - Apr. $65c (61 delta)

http://biz.yahoo.com/p/b/bebe.html
After Hours: $39.47
STATUS: Flat base. Volume was up and so was BEBE, moving off the 18 day EMA (36.94) after the 4 week lateral consolidation. Ready for more.
Volume: 866.17K Avg Volume: 512.681K
BUY POINT: New: $39.55 Volume=375K Target=$47 Stop=$36.55
