THE PLAYS

Good movers: CELL

NEW PLAYS:

Upside plays:

Play Date: 05/30/2006
BIDU (Baidu.com--$77.65; -1.79; optionable): Chinese internet retail
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/b/bidu.html
After Hours: $78.00
STATUS: Breakout test. BIDU gapped higher 3 weeks back on a strong earnings report, gapping out of a 5.5 month cup base. It stalled on the gap; no wonder after an almost 25 point move on that news. It has moved laterally since, holding the gain even in the market selling, trending sideways on lower and lower trade. The 18 day EMA (76.31) has now rising to meet it. Looking for that to act as the catalyst to send BIDU higher on another good run. When it gets going, it goes in a hurry.
Volume: 1.66M Avg Volume: 1.664M
BUY POINT: $79.35 Volume=2.5M Target=$93.00 Stop=$76.00
POSITION: BDQ IP - Sept. $80c (56 delta) &/or Stock

Downside:

Play Date: 05/30/2006
CBG (CB Richard Ellis--$74.58; -1.93; optionable): Property management
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/cbg.html
STATUS: Put. After a long, steady move up the 18 day EMA (78.98) through early May, CBG's upside has run out of road. It made what looked to be a routine test of the 50 day EMA (79.14) mid-May, but then fell through that level. It tried to rebound the past three sessions, but Friday showed a doji below the 10 day EMA (77.05) and Tuesday turned down from that level on rising, average trade. The inability to move through the 10 day EMA shows it has weakened considerably. Money flow is diving lower ahead of price, leading the way lower. Looking to move in on a further solid volume move lower. A run to the target lands us a 45%ish gain.
Volume: 825.5K Avg Volume: 715.931K
BUY POINT: $74.22 Volume=850K Target=$74.05 Stop=$75.21
POSITION: CBG SO - July $75p (-46 delta)
