THE PLAYS

Good movers Monday: AFFX; CPS; PRFT; GOOG

New Pre-Announcement Plays:

Play Date: 12/27/2004
OSTK (Overstock.com--$70.87; +2.15; optionable): Internet retail clearance. Researching to pinpoint date, but in a good buying position here.
BACKGROUND: No prior splits.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/o/ostk.html
After Hours: $70.87
STATUS: Breakout test. OSTK surged in late November on strong volume. It has spent the past two weeks easing back on much lower, below average volume, coming back to test and hold the 18 day EMA (69.44). Despite the low volume session overall, it showed solid trade as it came off the 18 day EMA. Would like to see more volume as it moves up through the buy point.
Volume: 1.091M Avg Volume: 1.61M
BUY POINT: $71.62 Volume=1.6M Target=$84 Stop=$69.38
POSITION: QKT CN - Mar. $70c (58 delta)

New buy point on a Continuing Leader:

Play Date: 12/27/2004
STK (Storage Technology--$31.25; +0.41; optionable): PC data storage devices
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/s/stk.html
STATUS: Breakout test. STK is giving us the next entry point, coming off the 18 day EMA (30.70) after a very nice, low volume test the past week. Volume was solid Monday, almost making it to average on the move. Making a higher low here, following some solid money flow higher. Looking to add positions on a move through the buy point on continued solid volume.
Volume: 763.9K Avg Volume: 907.636K
BUY POINT: $31.62 Volume=900K Target=$37 Stop=$30.58
POSITION: STK CF - Mar. $30c (43 delta) &/or Stock
