THE PLAYS

Good movers: FAST; GENZ; HANS; LCAV; LUK; SMG; VTIV

New Post-Split Plays:

Play Date: 11/09/2005
COH (Coach--$33.85; -0.08; optionable): Handbags, etc.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/coh.html
STATUS: Cup w/handle. COH is forming a nice low volume handle this week, coming back to test the 10 day EMA (33.35) on the intraday low and rebounding. Good action in a 15 week base that formed using the 200 day SMA (30.87) as support on the base lows. A market leader with top notch earnings that is setting up a nice base ahead of the holiday season. Money flow is running higher ahead of price, and after this dip it is ready to give us the breakout move.
Volume: 1.736M Avg Volume: 2.659M
BUY POINT: $34.88 Volume=4M Target=$40.25 Stop=$33.21
POSITION: COH BG - Feb. $35c (47 delta) &/or Stock

New buy point on a current post-split:

Play Date: 11/09/2005
HRS (Harris Corp.--$42.51; -0.20; optionable): Telecom equipment
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/h/hrs.html
STATUS: Breakout test. HRS broke out from an 8 week trading range between 38 and 42 in early November and has moved laterally on low volume since as the market consolidates its recent strong move. It is not giving up its gains, and it will be ready to move higher after another session or two and follow money flow higher.
Volume: 550.8K Avg Volume: 787.477K
BUY POINT: $43.32 Volume=1M Target=$49.55 Stop=$41.38
POSITION: HRS BH - Feb. $40c (58 delta) &/or Stock

PRE-ANNOUNCEMENT PLAYS

New Pre-Announcement Plays:

Play Date: 11/09/2005
PNRA (Panera Bread--$61.15; +0.04; optionable): Specialty eats. Researching to pinpoint a date.
BACKGROUND: Last announced a 2:1 split on 6-6-02 at $66.40
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/p/pnra.html
After Hours: $61.10
STATUS: Cup w/handle. PNRA is working on a nice low volume handle the past week, just like the market. It is moving laterally in a tight range above the 10 day EMA (59.96), setting up the breakout move from its 19 week base. Positive accumulation and money flow rallying ahead of price. Just waiting for it to show us the strong break higher.
Volume: 240.859K Avg Volume: 663.187K
BUY POINT: $62.25 Volume=995K Target=$71.62 Stop=$59.72
POSITION: UPA BL - Feb. $60c (56 delta) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cs/pnra.html

Continuing Pre-Split Plays:

Play Date: 11/08/2005
CELG (Celgene--$59.18; -0.25; optionable): Drugs. Researching to pinpoint an exact date.
BACKGROUND: Last announced a 2:1 split 9-9-04 at $57.40. Its other split was a 3:1 split announced 3-13-00 at $168.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/celg.html
After Hours: $59.16
STATUS: Breakout test. Still working on its nice lateral consolidation after the strong break higher last week. Nice tight consolidation that is setting up for the breakout along with the market. To recap: CELG formed a short 7 week cup base in September and October, then broke higher early this month on strong, above average volume. It reached over 60 and then started this low volume test. It has not given up much ground, holding well above the 10 day EMA (57.56). It may come back to that point but it is being very stingy with its gains, a sign of its strength. Looking for volume to kick back up as it moves through the buy point, continuing its breakout run and moving to a new all-time high.
Volume: 1.637M Avg Volume: 2.53M
BUY POINT: $60.45 Volume=3.2M Target=$69.95 Stop=$57.04
POSITION: LQH DL - Apr. $60c (54 delta) &/or Stock
