THE PLAYS

Good movers: ISE; MVSN; SIGM

NEW PLAYS:

Upside plays:

Play Date: 10/17/2006
PENN (Penn National Gaming--$38.81; -0.05; optionable): Resorts and casinos
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/p/penn.html
EARNINGS: 10-26-06
STATUS: Double bottom w/handle. PENN jumped higher Friday on strong, above average volume on an upgrade. That almost broke it out of its 25 week base, but it faded back modestly Monday and then showed a big doji Tuesday, reaching down below the 10 day EMA and rebounding to close basically flat. This action is shaking out the last sellers and setting PENN up for the breakout to try for a new all-time high and on toward perhaps another split in the spring.
Volume: 585.536K Avg Volume: 898.588K
BUY POINT: $39.44 Volume=900K Target=$46.95 Stop=$37.35
POSITION: UQN DH - Apr. $40c (53 delta) &/or Stock

Play Date: 10/17/2006
RVSN (Radvision--$19.04; +0.33; optionable): Video conferencing and video telephony
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/r/rvsn.html
EARNINGS: 10-26-04
STATUS: Cup w/handle. Looking for a 6 year high, RVSN has set up nicely in a 9 month base. Nice surge higher to start October, forming the right side of the base, then a handle this past week to shake out some sellers and set up the next move. Tuesday when the market was down RVSN was heading up on rising, above average volume. Looking to move in as it makes the next break, clearing the recent highs in the handle.
Volume: 259.026K Avg Volume: 119.78K
