NEW PLAYS:
Upside:
Play Date: 09/01/2005
RTK (Rentech--$2.87; +0.15; no options): Gas to liquids conversion of natural gas
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/r/rtk.html
STATUS: Test breakout. RTK is on the second strong surge from its late August breakout from an 8 month cup with handle base. Solid 9 to 7 accumulation in the base (9 up price weeks on rising volume to 7 down price weeks on rising volume) shows net buying. Excellent price/volume action in the base with a strong breakout after a low volume handle. Blasted higher Tuesday in a continuation of the breakout and tested that move Thursday, rebounding once more on strong volume. Excellent money flow and a relative strength breakout shows its strength. Looking to move in on a continued run higher.
Volume: 1.255M Avg Volume: 358.753K

Play Date: 08/15/2005
FLSH (M-Systems Flash Disk--$26.75; +0.34; optionable): Semiconductors
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/f/flsh.html
STATUS: Double bottom w/handle. Great volume and moving to the breakout Thursday. FLSH looks very solid but it did fade back off the intraday high by the close. Looking to move in on a continued break higher. To recap: Nice 23 week base that used the 200 day SMA (21.63) as support on the lows. Strong money flow is leading higher and relative strength broke out as well. Positive accumulation shows net buyers. Making a 5 year new high and ready to move in as it continues the breakout.
Volume: 1.246M Avg Volume: 648.958K
