New Plays:
Upside:
Play Date: 10/30/2006
COL (Rockwell-Collins--$58.27; +0.37; optionable): Aerospace/defense
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/c/col.html
EARNINGS: 11-1-06 before the open
STATUS: Cup w/handle. Low, below average volume as COL continues to work laterally the past two weeks over the 10 day EMA (57.90). Nicely formed 6 month base that used the 200 day SMA (54.00) on the lows as support. Solid 6 to 4 accumulation in the base shows solid buying (6 up price weeks on rising volume to 4 down price weeks on rising volume). Money flow continues to move higher and we look for COL to make the breakout from this excellent pattern.

POSITION: COL DL - Apr. $60c (52 delta) &/or Stock

FCFS (First Cash Financial--$21.88; -0.29; no options): Credit services
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/f/fcfs.html
EARNINGS: Reported earnings 10-18-06
STATUS: Reverse head and shoulders. FCFS is bumping up against the breakout and a new all-time high, making what looks to be a higher low Monday with a tap toward the 18 day EMA (21.52) and a recovery to close above the 10 day. Nice, patient 6.5 month base from this stock that sports some of the top earnings growth rates in the market. Solid 6 to 4 accumulation in the base (6 up price weeks on rising volume to 4 down price weeks on rising volume) shows solid buying complemented by strong money flow rising ahead of price. Just waiting for the volume to jump as it makes the breakout move.
Volume: 196.079K Avg Volume: 306.548K
BUY POINT: $22.48 Volume=450K Target=$26.95 Stop=$21.35
POSITION: - Stock (no option chain)

JSDA (Jones Soda--$9.91; -0.28; no options): Soft drinks
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/j/jsda.html
STATUS: Cup w/handle. Working on a two week handle to its 22 week base, setting up nicely for the breakout toward a new all-time high. A new issue in November 2005, this is JSDA's first big base. Very nice action showing positive accumulation. Monday it reached down to the 18 day EMA on the low (9.55) and snapped back to close above the 10 day EMA. Good shakeout that you want to see during the handle formation. Now we just wait for the breakout move.
Volume: 320.524K Avg Volume: 223.854K
BUY POINT: $10.41 Volume=336K Target=$12.49 Stop=$9.68
POSITION: - Stock (no option chain)

VTAL (Vital Images--$31.50; +0.86; optionable): Software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/v/vtal.html
EARNINGS: 10-31-06 before the open
STATUS: Cup w/handle. Earnings are out before the open and volume was up Monday as VTAL moved off the 50 day EMA (30.15), setting up for the breakout from its 7 month base. Excellent action setting it up for a new all-time high. Looking for earnings to give it a boost higher and give us a buy point.
Volume: 215.8K Avg Volume: 130.291K
BUY POINT: $32.12 Volume=200K Target=$38.58 Stop=$30.05
POSITION: HXQ DF - Apr. $30c (65 delta) &/or Stock

ULTI (Ultimate Software--$24.89; +1.02; no options): Internet software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/u/ulti.html
EARNINGS: Reported 10-24-06
STATUS: Breakout test. ULTI surged out of a 5 month base in early October and then came back to test for two weeks, tapping at the 50 day EMA (23.36) on the low last week and bouncing. Volume rose Monday as it continued higher again. Excellent action that is ready to take it to a new all-time high.
