THE PLAYS
Good movers Thursday: AAPL; MIPS; WYNN
NEW PLAYS:
Upside:
Play Date: 12/16/2004
PRFT (Perficient--$6.65; +0.34; no options): Business software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/p/prft.html
After Hours: $6.60
STATUS: Breakout test. Volume is surging as PRFT continues the breakout move. An excellent 9 month cup with handle base set up the late October blast higher to 6.50. It moved laterally for two weeks on lower volume and then started rallying again Thursday on that strong shot of volume. Excellent 10 to 3 accumulation in the base set up the breakout and this run. This is the first test of the move, and one of our favorite entry points. Looking to move in on a further volume move higher through the buy point.
Volume: 425.234K Avg Volume: 157.318K
BUY POINT: $6.74 Volume=236K Target=$8.21 Stop=$6.27
POSITION: - Stock (no option chain)

Play Date: 12/16/2004
VNWK (Visual Networks--$3.70; -0.10; no options): Business software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/v/vnwk.html
STATUS: Cup w/handle. A very nice, low volume handle is forming above the 10 day EMA (3.63) as VNWK pulls back to consolidate a nice move in December to finish forming the right side of its 9.5 month base. Solid 10 to 7 accumulation shows net buyers during the base, setting up the breakout move. Nicely formed base after VNWK has come off the bottom of its long base. It is nowhere near an all-time high, but the passage of time has eliminated a lot of that overhead supply along with solid bases such as the current one. Looking for volume to surge as VNWK moves through the buy point. Volume was back above Thursday as it held the 10 day and showed a doji. Getting ready.
Volume: 185.21K Avg Volume: 134.439K
BUY POINT: $3.95 Volume=202K Target=$4.88 Stop=$3.67
POSITION: - Stock (no option chain)
