Upside Plays
Stock Date Play Close +/- Pivot Tgt Vol TgtV Stop
^SOXX 01/06 Test 20 0.00 +3.44 476.00 496.00 0 0 468.67
Current. Tapped the 50 day EMA again on the low and rebounded
for a solid gain though still needs a strong breakout
over 475.

AKAM 01/03 Test 50 53.12 -0.47 53.55 61.35 2.3M 7.6M 50.69
Current. Another reach lower and recovery though lost some ground
on the close. High volume on the recovery as it continues
to work laterally over the 50 day EMA. Volume shows
buyers came back in & pushed it higher after the test.

AMAG 12/27 Test 18 59.91 +2.00 60.55 71.95 362K 425K 57.97
Current. Nice rebound on rising though still below avg volume
after coming back again to test the 18 day EMA. Good
response to that level.

AMKR 01/06 Cup hdl 10.42 +0.20 10.57 12.98 2.9M 5.9M 9.95
Buy Not Hit. Moving higher still toward the breakout point but not
yet gathering in a lot of volume. Solid pattern so
we will see if the other buyers are interested as it
hits the breakout point.

ATHR 01/04 Cup hdl 24.02 +0.69 23.05 28.21 2.7M 3.2M 22.44
Current. Strong volume again as ATHR continues the break higher
off the 200 day EMA.

BMC 12/16 Flat 34.64 -0.16 33.10 39.75 1.9M 2.5M 33.98
Current. Fading a hair more on lower, slightly above average
trade. Good test of a nice breakout move. Just letting
it make its first test and after that holds around
34ish we will even look at more positions as it rebounds.

BOBJ 12/16 Cup hdl 38.14 -0.58 40.65 48.88 1.2M 2.5M 38.65
Current.

BRCM 01/04 Test 20 32.31 -0.06 34.38 42.95 5.1M 17M 32.36
Entered today. All of the elements were there: price, volume, staying
power into the close. Solid break higher by an important
tech/chip stock.

BSC 01/06 Test 18 165.25 +0.26 163.10 179.00 1.2M 2M 161.89
Current. Could not add much to the strong Monday move, showing
a doji on the candlestick chart right at the December
high. Want to see some strength as it moves through
this level.

CBG 12/28 FlyPlat 33.97 +0.75 34.11 40.95 1.4M 3.9M 32.72
Buy Not Issued. Flirting with the breakout but no volume to go along
with it. With the other good stocks moving on volume
we held off to see if it can make a better breakaway
move and garner some trade as it does.

CMED 12/26 DB hdl 25.26 -0.74 27.45 32.98 522K 943K 26.31
Current.

CNQR 01/06 Test BO 15.75 -0.31 16.72 20.45 329K 402K 15.78
Buy Not Hit. Continued to test with an intraday tap at the 50 day
EMA, managing a rebound late. We will see if this is
what finally brakes the decline and sends it higher.

COH 09/25 Test BO 44.45 +0.44 35.05 40.48 2.7M 5M 43.22
Current. Still clawing its way higher up the 18 day EMA though
it is a bit choppier here.

CRAY 12/20 Test 50 12.51 +0.21 11.21 13.65 230K 596K 11.72
Current. Gapped higher for the second session but on no volume.
Just letting it make its move though we would really
like to ses some serious volume increases.

CTRP 12/21 Test BO 65.54 +0.38 63.88 73.48 439K 475K 63.69
Current.

CTRP 12/09 Test BO 65.54 +0.38 58.50 69.95 439K 525K 63.69
Current. Nice, nice doji at the 10 day EMA. This pullback looks
to be over and anticipating another strong move here.

FFIV 01/04 FlyPlat 77.70 -1.05 77.45 91.95 1.1M 1.1M 74.98
Current. Gapped higher but could not continue that strong Monday
move. Lower volume fade and still like what we see
in the start of this move.

GPRO 12/13 Cup 51.79 -0.81 53.85 61.55 431K 400K 51.68
Current. Sold back on rising trade but still in the recent range.

GRMN 12/28 Asc Tri 51.93 -2.07 56.55 66.45 6M 4.5M 54.48
Buy Not Issued. Gapped lower to the 50 day EMA, sold further but then
rebounded to hold that level. Dropping for now to see
how it responds to the gap.

GS 01/08 Flat 204.08 +0.35 204.55 225.00 7.1M 4.9M 198.88
Entered today. Started higher on still solid trade though the move
was modest compared to the strong Monday advance.

HCP 12/20 Test BO 38.31 +0.20 36.80 4395.0 968K 1.4M 36.88
Current. Another good showing after gapping lower but then fighting
back for a gain as HCP continues its solid uptrend.

HLTH 12/12 Saucer 12.95 +0.51 12.38 14.85 7.1M 5M 12.77
Current. Now that is the response we wanted to see, responding
the Monday selling with a strong volume surge higher.
Excellent.

HMSY 12/14 Asc Bse 16.57 -0.69 14.98 18.31 745K 331K 16.24
Current. Struggled the day after that huge move but bounced
nicely off the intraday low at 16 to recover half the
losses on the day. Looks as if it still has game.

IBM 12/12 Test 18 100.07 +1.17 95.05 104.95 11M 8M 97.45
Current. Another solid advance on the strongest volume of the
year (and in three months) as IBM continues its solid
uptrend.

IIVI 12/18 Asc Bse 29.00 -0.29 27.64 32.98 229K 270K 27.95
Current. Fading back a bit further after that strong Monday
gap, but still in a nice uptrend.

INAP 12/28 FlyPlat 20.41 -0.09 20.32 24.45 443K 800K 19.31
Buy Not Issued. Nice, flat, lateral move the past three sessions. Now
it looks ready to make the break higher.

INFY 12/19 Test 50 54.60 -0.40 54.37 65.45 2M 2.6M 53.33
Current. Tapped the 50 day SMA on the low and rebounded on volume.
Has made the shakeout. Now it needs to make a new strong
breakout.

ININ 01/08 Test 18 21.82 -0.05 22.04 26.75 333K 500K 20.62
Buy Not Issued. Started higher but gave it back and closed flat, unable
to extned that Monday move. Still in good shape and
if we see the move we will participate.

INWK 01/08 Test 50 16.52 +0.11 16.68 19.97 245K 400K 15.69
Buy Not Issued. Feinted a move higher but just a modest advance. Still
set to make the run.

JSDA 01/03 Test BO 12.38 +0.71 12.41 14.98 843K 550K 11.54
Entered today. Strong price move and strong volume to accompany it
higher as it resumes the breakout move.

KNOT 01/08 Test 50 28.01 +0.99 27.57 32.98 853K 625K 26.22
Entered today. Nice break higher on very strong volume. Sweet move
from a volatile but strong stock with some solid backing.

LEH 12/20 DB hdl 78.24 +0.06 78.38 89.95 3.8M 5.5M 76.62
Current. Doji on lower but above avge trade after the strong
Monday move. Not quite able to make the breakaway move
just yet.

MA 01/04 Cup 105.74 +4.66 101.11 119.75 3.6M 3.5M 101.65
Current. Strong surge on rising, average trade. Nice action
as MA shakes off the 100 level and is ready for much
higher prices.

MRVC 12/27 Cup hdl 3.66 +0.04 3.72 4.78 777K 2M 3.46
Current. Excellent test of the 10 and 18 day EMA on lower trade.
It is set up well to bounce from here after making
a higher low. Indeed, we are looking at some more positions
as it rebounds on rising trade.

MS 12/11 Asc Bse 81.16 -0.19 80.19 91.95 5M 5M 79.98
Current. Still higher, above avg volume as MS works laterally
over the 18 day EMA, making a slightly higher low.
Looks ripe to continue the run higher.

MXIM 01/08 Test 20 32.40 +0.81 32.38 38.95 6.3M 6.5M 30.78
Entered today. Good volume as MXIM breaks higher off the 200 day MA.
Good start to the next leg.

NITE 12/27 DB hdl 20.52 +0.94 20.37 24.41 2.7M 2M 19.21
Entered today. Excellent volume, excellent price move as NITE breaks
past the December high and resistance at 20. Solid move.

NTAP 12/16 Test BO 39.74 -0.49 41.45 47.95 4.3M 5M 39.45
Buy Not Issued. Faded right back to the 10 day EMA on lower volume
after that upgrade-induced bounce on Monday.

NVLS 11/13 Cup hdl 32.92 -0.25 31.12 37.25 7.9M 3.9M 33.57
Current. Struggling, selling through the 18 day EMA on rising, above avg volume. Giving it a session to check the selling.

PCLN 12/20 Asc Bse 44.06 +0.30 43.05 50.95 563K 1.4M 42.55
Current. Tight doji on low volume over the 10 day EMA as it
continues the lateral, tight test as that support rises
to meet it. That is likely to send it higher on its
next leg of the run.

SMG 12/20 Test BO 52.04 +0.19 52.20 59.95 200K 450K 51.38
Current. Kind of blah, but holding the 10 day EMA on low volume.
Beware the quiet, ignored stock. We will see. Want
to see that move before too long.

SNDA 12/26 Test 18 20.59 -0.07 21.66 25.99 315K 750K 21.35
Current. Still hanging on at the 18 day EMA on low volume. Okay,
not bad just needs to show the move.

SYK 12/18 Test BO 56.87 +0.78 55.67 63.95 1.6M 1.4M 55.11
Current. Another stryking move by SYK as volume remains solidly
above average as SYK continues the break from the three
week lateral move.

TALX 12/16 Asc Bse 27.42 +0.11 27.38 32.95 209K 325K 26.68
Current. Still working laterally above the 18 day EMA in a nice
set up to continue the move higher. Sure would like
it to get going. Lots of promising talk we would like
to see in action to the upside.

TECH 12/11 Test 20 56.82 +0.13 56.69 64.95 260K 300K 52.72
Current. Modest gain after the strong Monday move on huge trade.

TSRA 11/08 FlyPlat 40.20 +0.25 38.88 45.95 588K 1M 39.69
Trailing Stop.

USM 12/26 Test 18 70.85 -0.85 69.68 79.75 90K 150K 69.31
Tapped the 10 day EMA on the low as it gave back some
ground on higher, above avg volume. Testing the break
higher to start the year. May snug a bit more but on
another break higher it is another buy point.

VCLK 01/03 Test 18 23.50 +0.10 24.31 29.32 1.3M 3.5M 23.15
Buy Not Hit. Well, VCLK is taking its time, tapping lower to the 50 day SMA on the low and tapping the 10 day EMA on the high. Feeling for its boundaries. Still in good position to bounce, but looking as if it will take its time doing so.

VRNT 12/21 Rev HS 34.83 -0.12 34.78 40.68 57K 200K 32.98
Buy Not Issued. The waiting is the hardest part. Right at the breakout
point but not getting the upside volume to push it.

VSEA 12/09 Asc Bse 46.22 +0.39 45.13 51.95 1.1M 1.4M 44.32
Current. Tapped the 10 day EMA on the low and recovered for
a modest gain. Strong and still in the uptrend.

WFR 01/06 Cup hdl 42.18 +0.76 41.40 47.95 3.7M 5.5M 39.28
Current. Volume moved up again though still below average. No
complaints with the move as it continues higher after
the test of the 50 day EMA.

Downside Plays
Stock Date Play Close +/- Pivot Tgt Vol TgtV Stop
BBY 12/26 Put 49.04 -0.38 49.65 46.88 8.1M 5.5M 50.35
Moving lower grudgingly, bouncing modestly off the
session lows but still sporting a loss on above avg volume.

PPS 12/21 Put 45.61 +1.09 45.50 43.25 244K 290K 45.05
Trailing Stop.

TEK 01/06 Put 28.84 +0.04 28.40 27.05 544K 610K 29.11
Current. Modest move higher but a doji below the 10 day EMA
suggests it has lost its upside mojo.

TNL 01/03 Put 24.33 +0.35 23.75 22.00 357K 540K 24.41
Buy Not Issued. Low volume as it tries to get back up to the 18 day
EMA. Just watching and waiting for a roll back down.

UTEK 01/06 Put 12.53 -0.06 12.37 11.31 314K 375K 12.65
Buy Not Hit. Hugging the 10 day EMA on rising, avg volume. Still
waiting to see which way it will break.
