Upside Plays
Stock Date Play Close +/- Pivot Tgt Vol TgtV Stop
ACH 02/01 Dbl btm 26.96 +0.39 25.33 29.97 444K 700K 25.95
Current. Gapped higher, filled the gap, then rebounded to post
a modest gain on low volume. Good recovery from Friday
gap lower but all still in the uptrend.

AH 02/07 BO 67.89 +1.85 65.42 73.85 449K 700K 65.39
Current. Excellent surge higher off of the test of the 10 day EMA. Solid action as AH again moves into new high territory.

AIR 02/06 DB hdl 31.30 -0.22 30.60 35.95 319K 680K 30.32
Current. Working laterally on low volume, holding the strong
break higher from last Wednesday.

ANSS 02/17 Dbl btm 56.85 +5.09 54.32 59.95 1.2M 481K 54.45
Gapped higher and took off on huge trade. Already homing
in on the all-time high at 58.24.

ANST 12/26 Cup hdl 33.08 +0.55 28.36 33.95 237K 400K 31.31
Current. Another gain added to the strong break higher. Volume
was lower but it was above average as it has been for
a week. Strong buying continues.

APH 02/03 Cup hdl 67.92 +0.94 68.65 78.95 795K 1.2M 66.57
Buy Not Hit. Solid above avg volume as APH starts higher toward
its breakout. Good start & if it can keep the volume
running as it continues the move it is a buy.

ARO 02/17 PreAnn 38.92 +1.21 39.07 46.78 1.2M 1.8M 37.38
Entered today. Solid trade, solid price move as ARO bounces off a
10 day EMA test.

BA 02/03 Test BO 91.03 +0.09 91.65 102.95 3.9M 5.8M 89.31
Current. Tapped down to the 18 day EMA on the session low and
rebounded to close flat. Unable to extend the Thursday
break higher but trying to put in a higher low to set
up a move through 92, the next important level.

BAX 01/04 Rev HS 50.64 +0.18 48.31 55.45 1.7M 2.4M 49.55
Current. Started softer but bounced off the 10 day EMA. Nice
to see, but not much of a price or volume move as it
tries to get in gear for the next leg higher.

BKE 02/14 Test BO 36.53 +0.35 36.57 43.94 79K 210K 34.72
Buy Not Issued. Bounced off of an intraday tap at the 10 day EMA but
could not hold all of the move and volume was a bit
puny. Decided to wait but still looks good to get some
volume once more to show the buyers are back in.

CEPH 02/15 Test BO 73.86 -1.65 75.95 88.75 1.5M 2.3M 73.44
Buy Not Issued. Gapped lower and closed at the low on the 18 day EMA
as volume moved up to average. Going to keep watching
it but dropping for now.

CHL 02/15 Test BO 49.01 +0.56 49.95 57.95 2.5M 2M 47.22
Buy Not Hit. Volume surged as CHL gapped higher, tapping a the buy
point. Very good action and ready to move.

CLE 01/18 Cup hdl 35.54 +0.04 35.23 41.42 1.2M 2.7M 34.66
Current. Another doji at the 10 day EMA as CLE tries to get
some firm ground to push higher. Volume was up, not
a bad signal (was up Thursday as well).

COG 02/13 PreAnn 67.70 +0.53 66.89 76.95 702K 833K 63.75
Buy Not Issued. Stronger volume as COG added more to the Friday move.

CRM 02/12 Test BO 49.43 -0.20 48.11 54.95 2.5M 1.7M 47.11
Current.

CRM 01/24 DB hdl 49.43 -0.20 43.19 51.85 2.5M 1.5M 47.11
Current. Still working laterally but gave some ground on rising,
above avg volume. Not getting too twisted up about
it given the move higher and its nice sideways action.

CROX 02/12 Test BO 56.00 +0.83 55.05 65.95 5.4M 2M 52.55
Current. Gapped higher on strong volume ahead of earnings. It
was up to 58 - 59 on the early news but then faded
back to 56.50 late.

CXW 01/27 Test BO 53.54 +0.42 49.47 56.95 482K 550K 51.42
Current. CXW started up again on some excellent above avg volume,
but it gave back over half the session gain. Like the
volume and upside action as it looks ready to break
from this 2-week flying plateau.

DAKT 02/08 Cup 29.36 -0.29 38.72 45.77 1.4M 1M 36.21
Current. Still working laterally after that Wednesday gap lower.
The range is narrowing. We continue to look for a relief
bounce from that gap lower to give us a better exit point.

DO 01/30 Cup hdl 77.89 -0.70 83.42 95.95 2.4M 5.7M 85.05
Current. Gapped lower but bounced up off the 200 day EMA. Needs
something to trigger some upside and that test did
spark some higher volume as it bounced.

EAT 01/13 Cup 35.50 +0.22 32.00 36.95 831K 2M 34.12
Current. Another upside session though low volume. EAT continues
higher after the strong earnings gap last week.

EXC 02/17 Dbl btm 63.64 +0.45 63.72 71.95 1.5M 3.3M 61.92
Buy Not Issued. Gapped higher, continuing the Friday rebound off the
18 day EMA test but no volume coming back in.

FFIV 02/10 Test BO 76.03 +2.44 75.95 84.95 1.1M 1.2M 73.88
Buy Not Issued. Volume spurted higher to average late as FFIV held
on just above the buy point. Looking to enter on a
further move higher.

FMCN 02/06 Test 18 83.35 +1.35 86.08 97.89 703K 1.3M 81.95
Current. Continued its rebound, moving back above the 10 day EMA. Volatile as ever but making the continued bounce after testing the 50 day EMA intraday on Thursday. First day volume fell below avg so have to watch the move's durability.

GES 01/27 PreAnn 85.98 +1.12 72.48 83.45 921K 1M 83.94
Another upside session on a rising volume session as
GES continues its breakaway gap last Thursday.

GGB 02/13 Test BO 19.02 +0.30 18.54 22.44 1.5M 1.4M 18.08
Current. Nice surge higher, continuing last week's strong run
higher.

GS 02/01 Test 18 220.94 +4.02 212.88 231.90 6.2M 6.5M 215.57
Target Hit. Took some solid interim gain (35%, $440/contract) as
GS jumped off the 10 day EMA on strong volume. Will
let the rest of it run now and give us a 75% or so gain.

HMSY 01/24 Test BO 21.68 +0.20 19.02 22.75 86K 333K 20.21
Current. Seems to be resolving that indecision to the upside with a new break higher Friday and Monday, but not a lot of trade on ths move as it resumes. Given the solid prior volume and the run to this point, just letting it move.

HOLX 02/17 Test BO 57.14 +0.88 57.11 67.95 903K 1.2M 54.69
Entered today. Continued higher on rising volume though still below
avg. It is riding that big Wednesday upside volume upsurge.

IIVI 01/10 Test BO 33.28 +0.29 30.66 36.35 148K 295K 31.58
Current.

IIVI 12/18 Asc Bse 33.28 +0.29 27.64 32.98 148K 270K 31.89
Current. Adding some more upside as IIVI clears a couple weeks
of resistance to a new high on some rising volume.
Have to like that action.

JCP 01/22 Test BO 86.22 +0.97 83.15 99.75 1.5M 2.5M 83.98
Current. Pushing higher again to a new high once more following
that strong volume Thursday gain.

JEC 02/08 PreSplt 93.48 +0.72 93.65 101.95 359K 500K 91.89
Entered today. Volume was up as JEC gapped lower to test the 10 day
EMA, held, then rebounded. Nice action to get the next
leg of the pre-split run underway.

JWN 02/17 PreAnn 59.12 +0.66 59.02 67.78 2.3M 2.8M 57.55
Entered today. JWN refused to test and give up any gains, rising on
rising volume. So we bought into it when it came back
some from that early run higher.

KSS 02/15 DB hdl 74.24 +0.42 74.32 84.95 1.6M 4.4M 71.94
Buy Not Hit.

KSS 01/31 PreAnn 74.24 +0.42 70.68 80.95 1.6M 3.5M 72.05
Current. Started soft but rebounded to close positive for a
new closing high in this base. Would like more volume
but not going to get too wound up about it.

KSWS 02/01 Cup 34.11 +0.06 33.00 38.95 230K 250K 32.98
Current. Tapped the 10 day EMA on the low and rebounded on strong
volume for a gain. Been looking for the breakaway move
and this action looks as if it is setting it up.

LOGI 02/15 Flat 28.85 -0.28 29.22 35.42 558K 1.1M 27.78
Buy Not Hit. Gapped lower to the 50 day EMA and bounced back for
a modest loss. Volume was up. It is still working in
its base. Will give it a couple of sessions but it
looks as if it needs some more time here.

MON 02/01 Test BO 55.83 +0.18 55.69 62.95 1.7M 4.2M 54.38
Current. Still having a hard time getting through 56. Reached
down to the 18 day EMA intraday and rebounded to hold
the gap higher. Still looking for the breakout over
that level.

MSTR 02/14 Cup hdl 127.56 +1.16 126.78 142.95 165K 385K 123.11
Buy Not Issued. Thought hard about it given the strong volume last
Wednesday, but decided to wait given the reach lower
and rebound on continued below average volume. Want
to see a bit more trade.

NTGR 02/17 Dbl btm 29.02 +0.70 28.46 33.95 1M 1.1M 26.90
Buy Not Issued.

NX 01/23 Trnd Rv 40.03 +0.71 39.29 44.88 488K 500K 38.42
Current. Volume jumped back above average as NX banged at the
next resistance at 40. Looks as if it has its feet
under it here. Has to show us that strong break thru
40, however.

POT 02/06 Test BO 166.91 +6.18 153.71 172.75 1.5M 2M 162.95
Target Hit. Blasting higher so took some nice gain on the run that
put in 4 out of 5 upside days. Now we just let it
rally as far as it will. POT covers a lot of ground
as evident from the past week.

PX 02/10 Rev HS 64.83 +0.56 63.92 71.95 1.1M 1.6M 62.24
Buy Not Issued. Maybe we should have entered but it had no volume the
past week or more. Will look for a test to give us
a new buy point.

RESP 02/07 Test BO 42.20 +0.08 42.48 48.85 267K 400K 41.11
Buy Not Issued. Got some volume and started the move but could not
get enough trade to hold it. Still in escellent shape
to make a run off this test.

RIMM 02/03 PreAnn 141.62 +2.80 135.96 154.89 8.6M 10M 136.32
Current. Excellent break higher off the 10 day EMA on rising
trade. Looking solid. Would look even better with two
or there more of these sessions.

RIO 01/30 Test BO 36.35 +0.45 33.05 39.65 6.3M 9M 34.81
Current. Tapped the 10 day EMA on the low and rebounded to post
a gain on rising volume. Nice test and rebound continues
the run up the short term MA.

RL 02/15 Asc Bse 88.59 +2.79 85.55 96.45 1.1M 1.2M 84.38
Current. Surging on strong volume as RL clears its 10 week ascending
base with a bit more authority.

RS 02/15 Cup hdl 46.07 +0.79 44.82 50.00 927K 1.1M 44.78
Surging higher though not a lot of trade. If you are
in, no complaints.

STLD 02/05 Test BO 39.27 -0.77 38.50 45.95 1.6M 2.5M 38.61
Current. Bounced down from 40 after its second attempt to get
thru looked great on the rising volume upside last
week. Held the 10 day EMA on the close and volume was
lower so no real distribution.

TIE 02/17 Cup hdl 37.14 +1.79 37.15 43.78 4.6M 3.5M 34.72
Entered today. Surging higher on strong volume after the test last
week. Excellent.

TROW 02/13 Test BO 49.75 +0.15 49.65 56.98 898K 1.2M 48.55
Current. Tapped the 18 day EMA on the low and rebounded for
a modest gain. Volume was up but still below avg. Setting
the break higher.

VIP 02/10 Test BO 90.18 +3.85 87.11 99.95 1.4M 1M 85.21
Strong volume, as VIP surged off the 18 day EMA test.
Nice breakout from its 6 week lateral base, quite VIP.

VOL 02/03 Test 50 38.25 -0.34 37.42 42.97 389K 600K 37.11
Current. Gave back a bit on continued low volume. Still stepping
up the 10 day EMA though we would prefer more lively
stepping.

WFR 02/05 FlyPlat 55.40 +0.82 54.45 61.95 3.4M 4.8M 53.11
Current. Started getting some legs after a modest gap higher,
but it could not hold the move to the high at 57.
Like how it is trying to make the move.

XTO 01/30 PreAnn 50.83 -0.05 51.31 58.89 2.6M 4.5M 49.64
Buy Not Issued. Hanging in there and still holding the pattern, ready
for the break. Just going to see if it will show it to us.

ZUMZ 02/08 Asc Bse 35.70 +0.65 36.05 42.95 337K 800K 34.21
Buy Not Issued. Moving off the 18 day EMA on rising though still below
avg voume. Looks just about ready but want to see it
through the 36 on strong trade.

SBUX 02/17 Put 32.82 -0.19 32.65 30.92 10M 7.6M 33.33
Entered today. Dove lower on rising trade but then cut its losses
into the close. Still looking for a continued fade
down below the 10 day EMA.

WBSN 02/12 Put 22.42 +0.29 21.53 20.00 748K 950K 22.21
Buy Not Issued. Up again as the techs advanced. Going to let it make
its test higher that may try 239sh and fill the late
January gap lower.
