Play Date: 04/16/2007
ROST (Ross Stores--$34.75; +1.16; optionable): Discount apparel stores
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/r/rost.html
EARNINGS: 5-23-07
STATUS: Cup w/handle. Strong volume Monday as ROST surges off the 50 day EMA that acted as support in the 3 week handle to its 8 week base. This small base formed after the January breakout and run from a 3 year trading range. After that breakout and run it needed a breather; it takes a lot out of you to breakout of a long term base. Like this pattern and like the strong money flow. Retail sales did not hurt the move so we want to see it sustain this strength as it clears the March highs and shows us the buy point.

New Leader Play:
Play Date: 04/16/2007
AKAM (Akami Technologies--$54.26; +1.26; optionable): Digital media distribution and storage, etc. for the internet
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/a/akam.html
EARNINGS: 4-25-07
STATUS: Double bottom. AKAM has formed something we call a 'flying W' double bottom where the second leg does not undercut the prior one. With a strong stock this is a bullish pattern. AKAM made a high volume gap last Thursday that took it to the 'hump' in the double bottom. It did not make the break, but it caught our attention. Monday volume was up but still below average as it made the break over that mid-point in the pattern. Still looking for more volume as it continues higher. AKAM was a strong performer for us in its big 2006 run. It needed a break after that run and after a choppy end of 2006 and this base it has the look of being ready to make the move.
Volume: 2.717M Avg Volume: 4.08M
BUY POINT: $54.39 Volume=6M Target=$62.50 Stop=$52.68
POSITION: UMU HK - Aug. $55c (55 delta) &/or Stock
