Upside:

Play Date: 11/02/2005
DO (Diamond Offshore--$59.35; +1.86; optionable): Oil and gas drilling (offshore)
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/d/do.html
STATUS: Double bottom w/handle. A short 5 week base has formed that used the 200 day SMA (51.75) as support on the second leg. It jumped higher, then worked laterally the past week on lower volume., holding near the 50 day EMA (56.82). Wednesday DO broke higher on stronger, above average volume. This stock can fly when it gets going. Ready to move in as it continues higher on stronger volume.
Volume: 2.082M Avg Volume: 1.782M
BUY POINT: $59.65 Volume=2.6M Target=$67.95 Stop=$57.65

Play Date: 11/02/2005
BGC (General Cable--$17.55; +1.37; optionable): Cables and wires
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/b/bgc.html
After Hours: $17.55
STATUS: Double bottom breakout. Strong volume Monday and then again Tuesday as BGC broke out from its 12 week pattern. Solid 4 to 2 accumulation in the pattern (4 up price weeks on rising volume to 2 down price weeks on rising volume) shows net buying that set up the breakout and run. After such a strong move we anticipate BGC will come back some to test toward 17. If it gets close and starts to rebound we will start our position.
Volume: 885K Avg Volume: 330.171K
BUY POINT: $17.35 Volume=400K Target=$20.85 Stop=$16.45

LSTR (Landstar System--$40.03; +1.10; optionable): Trucking
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/l/lstr.html
After Hours: $40.15
STATUS: Test 50 day EMA. LSTR surged higher in late August, breaking out from a 6 month base. It rallied to 40 in early October and then dropped to the 50 day EMA (37.36) in the market selling. It has bounced up and down the last three weeks, but found some footing at the 50 day in late September. Moving on solid volume Wednesday as LSTR knocks on door of its breakout to new all-time highs.

After Hours: $47.06
STATUS: Reverse head and shoulders. A big test lower to end last week and a furious rebound. MRVL then continued the move this week, completing the right shoulder to its current 9 week base.
