Begin part 2 of 2

Full report issues Thursday.

THE PLAYS:

Good movers: ANSS; BOOM; CORS; CX; GG; VIVO; WIRE

New Post-Split Play:

Play Date: 04/26/2006
SPIL (Siliconware Precision--$7.40; +0.40; optionable): Chip equipment
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/s/spil.html
After Hours: $7.50
STATUS: Reverse head and shoulders. SPIL split in July and then rallied well to end 2005. After that move it needed a rest and the current 15 week pattern is giving it that. Good price/volume action in the pattern combined with money flow that is turning higher the past week. Great volume Wednesday as SPIL jumped higher, clearing some resistance. Looking to move in as it continues this break higher. Solid. Ready to move to a new 5 year high.
Volume: 3.136M Avg Volume: 1.899M
BUY POINT: $7.51 Volume=2.2M Target=$9.11 Stop=$6.98
POSITION: QSP IU - Sept. $7.50c (60 delta) &/or Stock

New Pre-Announcement Play:

Play Date: 04/26/2006
CTSH (Cognizant Technology--$62.70; -0.68; optionable): IT software. Potential to announce a split 5-3-06
BACKGROUND: Last announced a 2:1 split on 4-12-04 at $47.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/ctsh.html
After Hours: $62.71
STATUS: Flying plateau. Nice lateral move on low volume as CTSH consolidates the strong move from two weeks back, holding a nice tight range over the 10 day EMA (62.28). Nice breakout from a 7 week ascending base making its lows along the 50 day EMA (58.37). Solid market leader with strong fundamentals to match is strong technical moves. After this lateral test it will be ready to continue its breakout to a new all-time high. May take a couple of sessions, but wanted to be ready if Bernanke inadvertently sparks a renewed rally.
Volume: 851.465K Avg Volume: 1.281M
BUY POINT: $64.05 Volume=1.4M Target=$73.95 Stop=$62.11
POSITION: UPU JM - Oct. $65c (52 delta) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cs/ctsh.html

New buy point on current leader position:

Play Date: 04/25/2006
CYMI (Cymer--$51.43; -0.76; optionable): Chip equipment
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/cymi.html
After Hours: $51.50
STATUS: Test breakout. CYMI is still in the breakout test, undercutting the 10 day EMA (51.52) on the low and then rebounding to hold that level on the close. Excellent shakeout; just needs to give us the move. To recap: CYMI blasted higher last week on strong volume, moving to a 5 year high on a strong earnings report. It has come back to test the move, holding above the 10 day EMA on lower but still strong volume. Looking for this market leader to make the test of the 10 day and then start back up for a continued run. That is when we will move in once more.
Volume: 1.332M Avg Volume: 989.483K
BUY POINT: $52.65 Volume=1.5M Target=$62.00 Stop=$51.22
POSITION: CQG HJ - Aug. $50c (65 delta) &/or Stock
