THE PLAYS:
Upside:
Play Date: 12/26/2007
MCD (McDonalds--$59.88; -0.43; optionable): Big Macs, McRib (a.k.a. McGross), fries
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/m/mcd.html
EARNINGS: Third week of January
STATUS: Test 50 day EMA. MCD is coming off a test of its 50 day EMA (58.54) after breaking higher the second week of December on strong sales results. Good volume Friday as it bounced off the 50 day, but it was expiration. Nonetheless, it is making a nice test of the 18 day EMA (59.87) after the bounce, setting up the next bounce higher. Want to see some better trade as it makes the move, but MCD has been tearing the cover off the ball.
Volume: 3.314M Avg Volume: 8.326M
BUY POINT: $60.57 Volume=10M Target=$69.75 Stop=$59.69
POSITION: MCD CL - Mar. $60c (56 delta) &/or Stock

Play Date: 12/26/2007
GIGM (Gigamedia--$20.23; -0.32; optionable): Online gaming software
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/g/gigm.html
EARNINGS: Mid-February
STATUS: Ascending base. GIGM is making higher lows off the mid-November bottom of its 8 week base. Making higher and higher lows off the 90 day SMA (18.18), this time making a higher low above the 50 day EMA, tapping the 10 day EMA on the Wednesday low and rebounding nicely. After this higher low we are expecting the breakout move. Just waiting for it to show itself.
Volume: 897.071K Avg Volume: 1.387M
BUY POINT: $20.91 Volume=2M Target=$25.22 Stop=$19.45
POSITION: GBU DD - Apr.$20c (59 delta) &/or Stock

GSOL (Global Sources Ltd.--$31.47; +1.08; no options): Business to business advertising media company in China
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/g/gsol.html
EARNINGS: mid-February
STATUS: Ascending base. Making higher lows off the 50 day EMA (29.11), setting up the break higher from its 9 week base. It is looking for a new high with a breakout and run higher. Excellent money flow is moving higher ahead of price. Top stock in terms of earnings growth rates. Looking for additional volume as it continues the move up off the 50 day.
Volume: 283.053K Avg Volume: 402.325K
BUY POINT: $31.68 Volume=550K Target=$37.95 Stop=$29.78
POSITION: - Stock (no option chain)

Play Date: 12/26/2007
ONXX (Onyx Pharmaceuticals--$58.49; +1.56; optionable): Biotechnology
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/o/onxx.html
EARNINGS: Early February
STATUS: Flat base. A good upside push Wednesday as ONXX looks to be in the hunt for a breakout from its 7 week base formed using near support at the 18 day EMA (55.95) on the lows (with a quick test down to the 50 day EMA intraday last week). It is taking a pause after breaking to a new high when it took out the 2004 highs. Looks to be nearing the end of this consolidation and ready to move in as it makes the break.
Volume: 736.86K Avg Volume: 1.223M
BUY POINT: $59.15 Volume=1.8M Target=$70.95 Stop=$56.45
POSITION: OIQ BL - Feb. $60c (49 delta, low OI) &/or Stock
http://www.investmenthouse.com/cd/onxx.html
New buy point on current position:
Play Date: 12/26/2007
BG (Bunge Ltd.--$119.13; +1.00; optionable): Fertilizer, Soybeans
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/b/bg.html
EARNINGS: 2-7-07
STATUS: Test 18 day EMA. BG is working laterally over the 18 day EMA (117.43), holding that near support the past week as it tested back from the early December breakout surge. Like that it is holding this near support level and the breakout. All we need is another strong break higher to give us the next entry point.
Volume: 743.462K Avg Volume: 1.299M
BUY POINT: $120.31 Volume=1.4M Target=$138.65 Stop=$117.38
POSITION: BG DD - Apr. $120c (52 delta) &/or Stock
