Current. AAPL with the nice move higher Friday on below-average volume out of the August Cup hdl. Succeeded in making the pass of the July-August resistance in the 135's. So far so good.

AGE 08/16 Test 50 83.58 +1.19 84.04 96.75 2.7M 2.2M 81.69
Buy Not Issued. Gapped higher past the 50 day MVA on great volume to post a new closing high for August. Moves like these that get us interested and if AGE can keep the strength and volume of the Friday move then it's a buy.

AGU 07/13 Test BO 45.54 +1.27 45.33 53.95 1.2M 1.6M 44.24
Current. Continues to push higher form the mid-August test of the 200 day MVA. Upside volume rising and pushing the move higher as it gapped up Friday, setting a new high for August. Nearing resistance from June and July here, but looks to be no problem with the growing volume.

Current. Closed the week in the high 70's as it gapped up on rising, below-average volume to post a new closing high for August. AMZN with a nice Rev HS at the test of the 50 day MVA which looks to carry the move much higher from here.

ARTC 08/28 Test BO 56.02 +0.29 56.25 64.95 154K 750K 53.39
Buy Not Issued. Posted a modest gain on low volume to end the week near the August highs. Holding at some resistance here. Still in the pattern. Will enter once ARTC shows some higher volume on more aggressive upside moves..

Current. BIDU holding on to its DB hdl base to push higher Friday on low volume and end the month near the BIDU high set in July.

Current. Volume pulled back below-average Friday to post a quiet gain following this week's strong move out of the August Rev HS into the 64's. CELG looking to rest for a bit here if volume remains at this level.

Buy Not Hit. Ended the week posting a doji in a gap higher on above-average volume. Sits near August highs as resistance and needs to pass those levels before we can consider any entry points.

Current. Stalls along mid-July high consolidation in testing the Dbl btm high for August. Looks like it is going to hold the 34 support level and make work laterally and form a handle to the dbl btm and set up for the next move higher.

CMED 07/21 Test BO 34.29 -0.47 35.26 41.95 610K 896K 33.54

Current. Holds near the August high in moving laterally on low volume at the end of the week. The whole week's pull back to the 10 day MVA on the Cup hdl high has managed to build another handle to the base. Looks to carry the move higher from here after the routine pullback.

CROX 08/30 Cup hdl 59.04 +0.86 60.11 72.00 2.9M 7.5M 57.05
Buy Not Hit. Holds above the 10 day MVA in testing the high of the reversal off the 50 day MVA. Closed the week with a modest gain on still fading, below-average volume. Has had a long rest above the 10 day MVA and is ready to push higher from here once volume picks up.

for a nice run higher.

DO 08/29 DB hdl 105.16 +2.63 105.35 120.95 1.8M 3M 101.28
Entered today. Entered as it showed some strong, upside moves out of the Db hdl to move back into the 105's. Gapped high on below-average volume to close the week and looks to start September off well.

Current. DRYS showing some awesome moves to close out August. Volume rising and price running higher on a strong, Dbl btm base look to keep DRYS in the breakout strong into September.

FNDT 08/13 DB hdl 15.47 +0.11 15.88 18.98 10K 100K 14.94
Buy Not Issued. Stalling along the May-June consolidation as volume drops out in the 15 dollar range. Once it breaks past the consolidation on some better trade it will be a buy.

FTI 08/07 PreSplt 94.70 +2.25 94.35 108.45 878K 800K 92.24
Current. FTI with the gap higher on a volume spike above-average to set up a nice transition into the September. Looks to continue the move higher with the fresh volume and use the July-August highs as support for the move.

Buy Not Issued.

GRMN 08/15 Test 18 101.83 -0.71 90.35 111.95 4.6M 4.2M 100.88
Current. GRMN with some wide-range intraday movement Friday on high volume in the test of the 18 day MVA. Looks to continue the uptrend from the mid-August test at the average on the rising volume.

HMSY 08/15 Test BO 23.55 -0.17 24.21 29.45 88K 444K 21.11
Buy Not Issued. HMSY continuing to tighten its consolidation range through August as it nears the 18 day MVA on fading volume. Has managed to fill the mid-August gap and clear the way for a move higher soon off the key, 18 day MVA. Will enter if the move shows some stability and can clear the mid-August consolidation with no worries.

HPQ 07/11 Test 50 49.35 +0.91 46.35 53.35 16M 20M 47.98
Current. HPQ continuing a long, progressive uptrend started at the test of the 50 day MVA back in mid-July. Has held several higher lows in the long run and now close August with a nice gap up on above-average volume.

HSIC 08/06 Cup hdl 58.19 +0.14 57.21 63.95 244K 450K 58.65
Current. Testing the early-August high, HSIC showing low volume in closing the week on another quiet move in the upper 50's. Need to see some higher trade to break it out of its consolidation from the prior two weeks and move back for the August high.

IBM 08/28 Test 50 116.69 +1.32 114.77 130.00 6.9M 10M 113.32
Current. IBM continuing a strong move higher off the test of the 50 day MVA on below-average volume. Now nears the July peak in the 118's and looks to be in good shape to pass it with a run like the current.

ISRG 08/13 Test BO 221.28 +4.22 202.89 243.00 777K 1.2M 217.65
Target Hit. Took some interim gain after ISRG showed 3 solid sessions in a row. Took some solid 64% option gain ($1210/contract).
Letting the rest run as doesn't look back for ISRG.

MON 08/07 Test 50 69.74 +0.89 67.60 75.95 3.4M 5M 67.77
Current. Gave a doji Friday on below-average volume in the gap higher back to the July and August closing highs. Critical to see MON push higher from the Doji and break past the prior tops.

MORN 08/27 Test BO 64.52 +0.72 64.68 74.50 103K 240K 61.96
Buy Not Issued. MORN posting a doji on below-average volume Friday in its gap up in the 64's. Currently sitting along the prior August closing high, MORN looks to test back near the 10 day MVA from here after the Doji. Will consider some buy points in September once MORN resets and shows some higher trade.

MOS 08/27 DB hdl 42.02 +2.10 42.10 50.45 2M 4M 39.89
Entered today. Nice break higher on rising though not blowout volume. Used the action to start a partial position. Looking
very good.

MTL 08/30 Rev HS 43.53 +1.20 42.55 50.95 883K 525K 39.97
Buy Not Issued. More good volume, but the gap higher made us wait, and then MTL closed well off its high. After 3 upside sessions that close indicates it may come back a bit before it is ready to continue the move. That will give us an entry.

NVDA 08/21 Dbl btm 51.16 +2.48 48.45 55.45 12M 14M 47.89
Current. NVDA with a great move higher on above-average volume to push the Dbl btm run even further. Expecting this one to go into the mid-50's out of the strong base and solid trade.

NVDA 07/28 Test 18 51.16 +2.48 47.47 56.75 12M 12M 47.89
Current.

OIH 08/27 Rev HS 178.71 +3.20 179.78 194.95 6.1M 11M 175.44
Entered today. Gapped higher and then started to come back and we
moved in. It continued to fall in the last few minutes
of the session. Will look for more positions as it
gives the opportunity.

RADS 08/23 Test BO 15.05 +0.11 15.81 18.95 266K 400K 14.95
Buy Not Issued. Continues a downtrend on the test of the August high. Need to see RADS find a bottom here to rebound higher and stop the bleeding or will be dropped soon.

RIMM 08/25 Test BO 85.41 +2.54 79.76 99.95 13M 30M 80.11
Current. Posted a doji on low volume in the gap higher Friday to begin what looks to be a nice rest for RIMM in the new high off the mid-August test of the 50 day MVA.

RVBD 08/22 Test 50 44.40 +0.15 44.25 53.95 636K 1.4M 42.24
Buy Not Issued. RVBD ending August in what looks to be a nice transition into September to push higher from this month's Cup hdl base. Closed the week on a low volume push higher to complete the handle and will consider some buy points in September once volume picks up.

SLB 08/20 Test 50 96.50 +1.68 92.72 110.00 6.2M 12M 94.94
Current. Working a nice, ascending base from the mid-August reversal beneath the 50 day MVA. However, posted a doji Friday in the gap higher on low volume to what could be a test lower from here.

SNDK 07/28 Test 18 56.06 +1.40 57.30 66.75 8M 12M 54.95
Current. Pushes high from the late-August Dbl btm off the 50 day MVA as it gapped higher Friday on low volume with a majority of the market. Now sitting just above the mid-point of the August high, SNDK looking to start September off well.

TRAK 08/18 Asc Bse 38.20 +0.71 40.55 47.65 140K 462K 27.87
Buy Not Hit. Continues to post higher lows since the reversal in late-July beneath the 50 day MVA. Picked up a bit of volume Friday to post a modest rebound high off the 50 day MVA and continue the Asc Bse.

UA 08/25 Rev HS 65.01 +1.13 67.24 76.95 512K 2.2M 64.22
Buy Not Hit.

UA 08/16 Test BO 65.01 +1.13 63.76 76.95 512K 1.8M 63.88
Current. Testing the mid-August high, UA posts some quiet moves along the 18 and 10 day MVA's on low volume. Expecting a big move soon from the Rev HS base of August to start September off in a move for the August highs.

UTHR 08/28 Asc Bse 68.49 +0.03 68.28 78.65 433K 1M 66.32
Buy Not Issued. Begins to gain some volume as UTHR posted a lateral move Friday at the August high. Waiting to see UTHR with the kind of move to break past the July highs near the 70's before jumping in on this one.

VIP 08/29 DB hdl 24.40 -0.33 23.91 28.75 4.9M 4M 22.24
Buy Not Issued. Gapped higher and then reversed to close lower. With that kind of action we have to look for a test this week that gives us an entry around 23ish.

VSEA 08/30 Test BO 55.63 +1.08 55.96 66.75 1M 2.5M 52.44
Entered today. Gapped higher and we took a few positions on the move to start the play. Will look at more this coming week
when we see what VSEA is going to do to start September.

XLE 08/28 Rev HS 69.83 +0.91 69.65 77.50 13M 2.4M 66.65
Buy Not Issued. Gave a doji in the Friday gap up above the 50 day MVA on low volume. Need to see XLE continue the current uptrend from the mid-August tap at the 200 day MVA with some higher trade to give us the buy.

ZUMZ 08/29 Test BO 48.53 +0.56 47.85 55.45 2.1M 1M 45.89
Current. ZUMZ continuing to post a series of higher lows since the start of August as Friday showed a spike from volume to push into the upper 40's. Loving the moves so far from ZUMZ as it looks to move into September smoothly.

Downside Plays
Stock Date Play Close +/- Pivot Tgt Vol TgtV Stop
AMD 08/20 Put 13.00 +0.58 11.85 10.78 28M 30M 11.89
Current. Gapped higher w/market and held its move to the close.
Below the 50 day EMA (13.28) & at the May low. Given
the gap there was not much we could do with it so we
decided to see how the start of Sept. treats it.

BBY 08/21 Put 43.95 +0.26 43.64 41.55 4.3M 7M 44.52
Buy Not Issued. Continuing to show some lower highs in its progressive downtrend from early June. Liking this action and will enter soon once downside volume picks up.

BWA 08/23 Dbl Top 84.50 +1.30 83.11 77.45 318K 450K 84.85
Buy Not Issued. BWA beginning to show a series of positive moves from the mid-August reach for the 200 day MVA. Will be dropped soon if it continues this pattern.

CAT 08/25 Put 75.77 +1.11 74.65 71.44 3.3M 7M 75.55
Current. Gapped higher, tried to clear the 18 day EMA (76) but faded on the close. No volume. It has failed to clear the 18 day EMA on 2 tries. Still looks like another run downside here to form a double bottom, and that gives us a nice gain.

DIA 08/20 Put 133.40 +0.83 131.88 127.55 11M 20M 132.65
Buy Not Issued. DIA gapping higher Friday and continuing to show some solid upside movement from the test of the 200 day MVA. Has been dropped.

ETFC 08/18 Put 15.58 +0.81 14.88 12.54 11M 20M 15.54
Buy Not Issued. Gapped higher on rising volume to meet the 18 day MVA and showing stronger upside volume after a higher low. Will keep an eye on it in the event that sellers return to start the new month Monday.

FRPT 08/14 Put 17.23 +0.09 15.74 13.55 703K 3.2M 15.64
Current. Sold back this week but held the 18 day EMA on the
Friday close. If it does not fall thru 18.50 to start
next week we will close it.

GRA 08/04 Put 22.34 +0.63 18.94 17.00 513K 1.2M 20.55
Current. Gapped higher so we had to see how the session played out. Stalled at the 50 day MA (22.41) on the close on continued low volume. Have to see how the start of the new week treats it. A lower high here is a positive but has to fall below 21.50 soon.

SPY 08/18 Put 147.59 +1.44 145.37 140.22 185M 235M 145.55
Current. Gapped higher with the market but then could not hold
a move over the 50 day EMA (147.77) on the close. This
is where it failed in early August and last week. Key
point for it and likely to test 146 again this week.
