THE PLAYS

Good movers Wednesday: CMTL; CYTC; HPOL; LACO; MNDO; MTSN; OPWV

New Leader Plays:

Play Date: 12/15/2004
CENT (Central Garden & Pet--$40.60; +1.68; no options): Producer and marketer of branded pet and garden products
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/cent.html
After Hours: $40.66
STATUS: Cup w/handle breakout. Solid volume for CENT Wednesday as it started the breakout from a very nicely formed 8 month base. The handle was very tight and on low volume, just what you want to see. Solid 6 to 4 accumulation in the base shows net buyers, setting up the breakout. A market leader but hardly a household name; that typically means there is much more upside for it. Looking to take positions on a further move and then on the first successful test.
Volume: 250.121K Avg Volume: 106.772K
BUY POINT: $40.82 Volume=160K Target=$49.55 Stop=$38.48
POSITION: - Stock (no option chain)
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cs/cent.html

Play Date: 12/15/2004
CSTR (Coinstar--$26.16; +0.51; optionable): Coin counting machines
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/cstr.html
After Hours: $26.10
STATUS: Test 50 day EMA. Exploded higher to end October, rallied a bit and then moved laterally the past six weeks, easing back to test the breakout, holding the 50 day EMA (25.25) as it does. This is part of a much larger 3 year base, but CSTR looks ready for a strong upside move to take it toward a new all-time high at 35. Huge volume Wednesday as CSTR moved up off the 50 day as CSTR priced a common stock offering at $25/share. 2 to 0 accumulation in the easy pullback shows buyers are still picking up the stock. Strong money flow is a good compliment. Looking for a break over the recent highs on strong volume to move into the stock.
Volume: 2.731M Avg Volume: 293.061K
BUY POINT: $26.88 Volume=350K Target=$32.25 Stop=$25.65
POSITION: QLR DE - Apr. $25c (67 delta) &/or Stock
