THE PLAYS

Good movers: ADSK; BCSI; CHS; DNA; JCOM; STJ; UNH

New Post-Split Plays: Market leading apparel stores have set up again.

Play Date: 10/31/2005
CWTR (Coldwater Creek--$26.99; +2.91; optionable): Apparel stores
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/cwtr.html
After Hours: $27
STATUS: Double bottom. Strong volume Monday as CWTR moved off the October low, forming the second leg in its 9 week pattern that used the important 200 day SMA (24.42) as support. That is the point the institutions either buy it or get rid of it, and the action we see along that level indicates they are keeping it and buying more. Money flow is surging higher ahead of price as CWTR sets up for a run at another new all-time high. Nice double bottom action and we are looking to start a position as it continues the move higher. May show a bit of weakness after a strong move, but if it then continues higher through the buy point it has shown the strength of the move. A strong move will put it right back at its split announcement price.
Volume: 1.576M Avg Volume: 707.358K
BUY POINT: $27.32 Volume=850K Target=$31.88 Stop=$25.87
POSITION: UCJ DE - Apr. $25c (69 delta) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cs/cwtr.html

Play Date: 10/31/2005
PSUN (Pacific Sunwear--$25.02; +0.92; optionable): Apparel stores
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/p/psun.html
After Hours: $25.01
STATUS: Double bottom w/handle. Strong volume break higher Monday as PSUN moves to the breakout point in its nicely formed 8 month base. PSUN is a perennial market leader, and after a strong run in 2003, it based in 2004, enjoying a strong run from August to March 2005. It needed this base to reset and it is doing just that. Money flow is surging higher and PSUN is starting to follow its lead. A strong leader that is starting its break higher.
Volume: 2.599M Avg Volume: 1.781M
BUY POINT: $25.38 Volume=2.2M Target=$29.85 Stop=$23.88
POSITION: PVQ CE - Mar. $25c (55 delta) &/or Stock
