Upside:
Play Date: 02/15/2006
INFA (Informatica--$14.15; +0.15; optionable): Data warehousing, migration, etc. software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/i/infa.html
After Hours: $14.11
STATUS: Test breakout. INFA broke out from a 16 week flat base in early January, moving higher on some explosive volume. It then drifted higher up the 18 day EMA (14.13) until the last week of January when it exploded higher on earnings news. That was the final hurrah in the original breakout move, and it spent the past three weeks testing back, filling the small gap up on the big January jump higher. After that fill it gapped higher Wednesday on rising but still below average volume. Super money flow leading higher and a relative strength breakout on the January move. Looking for some more volume from this top-rated stock. Looks super.
Volume: 1.087M Avg Volume: 1.691M
BUY POINT: $14.65 Volume=2M Target=$17.65 Stop=$13.88
POSITION: UYF FV - June $12.50c (72 delta) &/or Stock

Play Date: 02/15/2006
KOMG (Komag--$46.76; -0.53; optionable): Data storage devices
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/k/komg.html
STATUS: Flying plateau. KOMG broke out from a 19 week cup with handle base in early January and rallied nicely up to 50 on the breakout move. It peaked out and started to take a breather, using the market weakness and selling to consolidate its gain. It has not given up any of its gain, instead moving laterally over the 10 and 18 day EMA (46.60, 45.74) in a nice flat range and on low volume. That shows no selling. Volume started to kick up Tuesday, and we are looking for KOMG to make the move soon. Top rated in fundamental growth and technical pattern.
Volume: 765.545K Avg Volume: 1.272M
BUY POINT: $48.12 Volume=1.5M Target=$57.75 Stop=$45.48
POSITION: QKX FJ - June $50c (48 delta) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ci/komg.html
Play Date: 02/15/2006
TKC (Turkcell--$17.51; +0.03; optionable): Mobile communications in Turkey
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/t/tkc.html
STATUS: Flying plateau. TKC broke out from a 17 week ascending base in late January, and then in the subsequent market weakness it has moved laterally the past three weeks, refusing to give up any gains. That action (holding the 10 and 18 day EMA at 17.24 and 17.02, respectively) and the low, low below average volume shows no selling in this strong stock. Wednesday TKC surged higher on rising but still below average volume, hitting 18.29 on the high but then giving it back. Strong, and looking for volume as it continues higher out of this pattern.
Volume: 285K Avg Volume: 423.106K
BUY POINT: $17.82 Volume=635K Target=$21.38 Stop=$16.89
POSITION: TKC GW - July $17.50c (63 delta) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/ci/tkc.html
Play Date: 02/15/2006
USPI (United Surgical--$38.94; +0.79; optionable): Short stay surgical facilities
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/u/uspi.html
STATUS: Reverse head and shoulders. Low, low volume the past two weeks as USPI forms the right shoulder to this accumulation pattern. Nice base that has formed just below a new all-time high. Solid leader that split in July and then carved out this base. This gives it the foundation it needs for the next run higher.
Volume: 189.23K Avg Volume: 525.626K
BUY POINT: $39.87 Volume=788K Target=$47.85 Stop=$37.96
POSITION: QPJ HH - Aug. $40c (50 delta) &/or Stock
