THE PLAYS
Good movers Monday: IR; OMC; ORLY
NEW PLAYS:
New Pre-Split Plays:
Play Date: 02/28/2005
OPTN (Option Care--$19.33; -0.68; optionable): Home health care. Splits 3:2 on 4-1-05
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/o/optn.html
STATUS: Breakout test. OPTN is coming back on lower volume to test the massive volume breakout last Wednesday when it gapped out of a 10 week Cup w/handle base that followed on the heels of a 20 week double bottom. A nice base on base pattern that has worked to weed out the sellers. Excellent 5 to 1 accumulation in the most recent base, showing solid buying that led to the breakout. Looking for it to test the 10 day EMA (18.95) and from there continue the move higher. Want to see strong volume when it does turn back to the upside.
Volume: 350.054K Avg Volume: 210.045K
BUY POINT: $19.45 Volume=335K Target=$23 Stop=$18.88
POSITION: UOC GD - July $20c (50 delta) &/or Stock

New Post-Split Plays:
Play Date: 02/28/2005
ETN (Eaton Corp.--$69.75; -0.29; optionable): Diversified manufacturing (electrical power distribution, auto systems, etc.)
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/e/etn.html
After Hours: $69.73
STATUS: Reverse head and shoulders. Nice 8 week base has formed along the 50 day EMA (68.48) as it forms up for the next break higher. Kind of a skewed pattern with a high just over 72 before it fell into this base to start the year. Solid 3 to 1 accumulation in the base shows net buyers and is setting up the next break higher. Looking for a move over the recent February high on even better volume to move into positions.
Volume: 1.008M Avg Volume: 885.09K
BUY POINT: $70.88 Volume=1.3M Target=$77 Stop=$68.55
POSITION: ETN GN - July $70c (55 delta)
