THE PLAYS
Good movers: ADBE; AKAM; CRM; ELOS; ENDP; FFIV; NILE; WBSN
NEW PLAYS:
Upside plays:
Play Date: 12/06/2005
SOX (Philly Semiconductor Index--$0; +0.08; optionable)
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/^/^sox.html
STATUS: Test breakout. After a very modest pullback SOX was right back in the action Tuesday, rebounding after gapping lower near the 10 day EMA (490.20) and running to 510 on the high. It could not hold all of that move, but it looks ready to continue the breakout move after this short respite. As long as it sets up and provides opportunity, we will play it.
BUY POINT: $503.45 Target=$520 Stop=$499.78
POSITION: SJX AA - Jan. $505c (52 delta)
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ct/^sox.html
Play Date: 12/06/2005
PAAS (Pan American Silver--$19.85; +0.5; optionable): Silver mining
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/p/paas.html
After Hours: $19.83
STATUS: Ascending triangle. Volume is surging as PAAS sets up for a breakout from its 20 month triangle. It ahs traded in a range below 20 the past week, bumping up against that level but unable to punch through yet. The strong volume Tuesday suggests it is ready to make that move, and that is where we enter. The breakout takes it to a new all-time high where there is no overhead resistance that will sell into the move.
Volume: 1.974M Avg Volume: 835.514K
BUY POINT: $20.12 Volume=1M Target=$24 Stop=$18.92
POSITION: USP DD - Apr. $20c (54 delta) &/or Stock
