Current. Held the Tuesday low and bounce a bit for a short step higher as the market begins its relief bounce mid week here. Had high volume and looks good to start uphill from here. Watching to see how APC handles the end of the relief bounce and if it stalls we will exit and save the gains.

BG 12/26 Test 18 128.59 +1.37 121.82 139.95 2.9M 1.4M 125.32
Current. Continued higher in this weeks bounce off the 10 day EMA. Picked up high volume in the move higher as BG makes a strong breakout this week.

BIDU 12/29 Asc Bse 344.10 -1.11 395.24 454.00 8.3M 10M 383.44
Current. Doji on above average volume as BIDU holds the Monday low for a third, consecutive session. Deep intraday reach to key support at the 90 day SMA and November lows near 315 and recovered from there: a good sign of some upsides coming from here.

BUCY 01/05 PreAnn 90.30 +1.98 92.11 112.45 1.1M 900K 88.74
Buy Not Hit. Nice bounce upside for BUCY Wednesday on high volume as it rebounded off the Tuesday testing low at the 50 day EMA. Looks to be heading uphill from here with the market relief bounce and ready to enter if it continues upside on this high volume.

CAM 12/27 PreSplt 50.01 +1.00 49.90 56.75 2.5M 2.5M 50.39
Current. Low volume bounce from the Tuesday low for some modest gain Wednesday as CAM recovered from under the 18 day EMA near 48 intraday. Bouncing with its energy sector here and in good shape to continue higher with the market to the weekend.

CF 01/03 Test BO 112.52 +3.73 115.66 129.95 3.3M 3M 109.78
Current. Nice bounce off the Tuesday low after CF tapped support at the 18 day EMA as it holds onto its rising, above average volume. Doji Wednesday with the high volume and with the market looking to start its quick relief bounce here CF is in good shape to jump out of this test and take the Asc Bse higher for a bit.

CF 12/19 Asc Bse 112.52 +3.73 100.66 119.95 3.3M 3M 113.32
Current.

CHL 01/03 Asc Bse 88.84 +4.45 88.55 102.95 3.8M 4.9M 85.09
Entered today. CHL with a huge bounce higher from the Tuesday pullback low as it finally starts into its next bounce higher in the Asc bse. Just what we were waiting to enter on and with the high volume CHL was a no brainer Wednesday. Riding this one with the market relief bounce until it stalls to give a good exit point and save some gains.

CHTT 01/08 PreAnn 74.44 +0.40 75.68 86.95 364K 408K 73.65
Buy Not Hit. Held the 10 day EMA on high volume with a huge doji as CHTT holds support from the average and October consolidation highs. Need to see it bounce with the market for the rest of the week on this strong volume for the entry point.

CHU 12/27 DB hdl 21.21 +1.25 21.04 27.95 1.6M 2.6M 20.08
Buy Not Issued. CHU with a great bounce off the 90 day SMA on above average volume Wednesday as it picked up the DB hdl mid week. If it can continue this positive action we will enter.

CMED 12/22 Rev HS 50.17 +0.48 44.28 54.95 1.4M 1M 47.88
Current. More high volume Wednesday as CMED gave a doji with a deep reach back to the 10 day EMA near 47 intraday and recovered to hold the Tuesday high. Slowing down a bit from the Tuesday breakout but in good shape to continue higher with the market starting its relief bounce here.

CPHD 01/07 Cup hdl 26.80 +0.73 27.31 32.95 789K 1M 25.58
Buy Not Issued. CPHD starting to bounce from this testing low of early January as it bounced off the 10 day EMA Wednesday on fading, below average volume. A continue move higher on stronger volume will be a buy.

Current. Bounced higher off key support with a majority of the Energy stocks. Nice, rising high volume Wednesday for CVX as it rebounded off the 50 day EMA and looks good to continue higher through the week with the market.

CYBS 12/22 Cup 16.10 -0.26 18.03 21.65 1.5M 1.1M 17.77
Current. Continued a bit lower to close at key support from the 50 day EMA and November/December lows on high volume. Deep intraday reach back to 15.0 and rebounded from there to bottom in this test of the Cup high. Looks good to bounce upside with the market from here.

EDU 01/05 Asc Bse 81.62 -1.18 83.32 99.95 675K 750K 86.11
Light selling Wednesday to post a doji and hold the 10 day EMA as support at the close with a deep intraday tap at the 50 day EMA(77.58). Like seeing this one hold support in this quick pullback here as it looks to make its next bounce higher in the Asc bse soon with the market starting its relief bounce.

ESLR 01/03 Test BO 16.50 -0.62 17.71 21.75 8.2M 5M 16.88
Current. Still testing the late December high with above average volume as it sold a bit lower to the 18 day EMA and held the average as support at the close Wednesday. Tapped support intraday near 15 from the mid December low and recovered to post light selling. Looks good to bounce soon with the market.

FTI 01/07 Cup hdl 61.26 -0.70 63.55 75.95 1.8M 1.9M 60.38
Buy Not Issued. FTI getting talked up by Cramer. Tends to boost it short term and either way this pattern in the test of the early January surge higher is very nice. Doji Wednesday on above average volume as FTI tapped support at 60 intraday and closed flat. Waiting for the bounce out of this test for the buy.

FWLT 01/02 Asc Bse 142.90 -0.59 165.06 188.89 3.1M 1.8M 162.32
Current. Finally got a break in the selling after three hard sessions of downside action on high volume. Doji with a reach well below the 90 day SMA(138.81) intraday as FWLT held support from the average and looks to finally be slowing down the huge, early 08 selling.

GILD 01/07 Asc Bse 48.50 +1.65 48.38 55.95 8.8M 10M 46.44
Entered today. Just the move we were looking to enter on as GILD bounced off support from the 10 day EMA Wednesday on above average volume as it bounced upside again in the Asc bse. Nice move midweek to set GILD up for some more gains to the weekend.

GMCR 12/18 Cup hdl 40.33 +0.03 41.50 49.95 258K 300K 39.69
Current. Closed flat with a doji Wednesday on below average volume as GMCR reached down below the 18 day EMA(39.43) intraday and recovered to hold the 10 day EMA as support. Still inside its consolidation range from the late December Cup hdl high as GMCR looks to jump off support at the 10 day EMA soon with the market relief bounce here.

GOOG 12/03 Cup hdl 653.20 +21.52 687.88 742.00 6.7M 8M 713.32
Current. Nice bounce off support from the 90 day SMA near 625 and the mid November low. GOOG back in it with rising, above average volume midweek and looking to continue upside through the rest of the week. Nice.

Current.

HAL 01/03 Dbl btm 36.74 +0.18 39.39 45.85 18M 15M 37.65
Current. Closed flat Wednesday with high volume as HAL tested the 200 day SMA intraday and recovered to post a doji at the close. Looks to have bottomed in this early January pullback this week and expecting a bounce upside with the market soon.

HK 01/07 DB hdl 17.70 +0.36 18.48 22.32 2.1M 2.5M 17.32
Buy Not Hit. HK continuing inside its volatile consolidation range between 17 and 18ish from the late December DB hdl high. High volume this week as it tested back to the 50 day EMA and held the early December high as support at the close Wednesday. Needs to use this high volume to bounce for the buy and as HK is an energy stock it looks to do just that with the rest of the energies this week.

HOLX 12/29 Test BO 68.33 +0.22 70.36 80.95 2.9M 3.2M 69.02
Current. Closed flat with a doji to hold support from the October highs. Rising, below average volume midweek as HOLX looks to have bottomed in the test of its December Rev HS high.

HUM 12/12 Cup hdl 85.79 +3.87 77.91 89.95 3.1M 2.4M 83.92
Target Hit. Took part of 9.2% stock, 56.8% option gain as HUM exploded higher from the Tuesday doji. High volume in the breakout from Wednesday as well as HUM surges midweek.

IMA 01/07 Dbl btm 62.05 +2.65 59.21 69.95 2.2M 1.2M 59.92
Current. IMA with another great upside session with rising high volume as it continues to surge into the 60s Wednesday. No slowing this one down any time soon. Awesome.

Current. Gapped higher Wednesday to close with a doji on high volume as MO continues upside in this week's excellent breakout. Second consecutive doji here looking to bring MO back for a well deserved test/rest later this week.

OII 01/03 PreAnn 74.83 +1.15 75.55 90.95 473K 785K 71.35

Buy Not Issued. Closed flat with a doji Wednesday on above average volume as ONXX held the 50 day EMA in the short step lower to set up for the next bounce higher in the Asc Bse. Expecting a bounce from here off key support at the 50 day EMA and will enter if the volume is strong enough.

PZE 12/13 Cup hdl 13.61 -2.39 12.84 15.55 6.2M 400K 14.77
Trailing Stop. Gapped lower and took the rest off the table. That doji was the signal for us to get out from last week and Monday after that run higher.

Current. SOHU bouncing from the Tuesday low as it got a slight pickup in volume and posted some modest gains Wednesday. Nice start to the recovery move here midweek as SOHU looks to climb with the help of the market relief bounce. Not bad.

Buy Not Issued. Above average volume with a doji Wednesday on at the Tuesday low. Held support from the December low and need to see AG break support and continue selling on this strong volume for the buy.

BARE 01/05 Put 21.27 -0.32 22.65 20.61 1.1M 1M 21.89

GME 01/08 Put 55.11 -0.99 55.03 52.44 6.5M 3.4M 57.68
Entered today. Entered as it dove lower Wednesday but it recovered as the market did midweek here. Was selling on big volume. Still looks too weak to seriously recover so entered it even though the market bounce was at hand. Up after hours possibly due to December sales. Still below 50 day EMA and looks good to fall. Ready to add new positions if it stalls at the 50 day EMA in a bounce.

MDY 12/29 Put 145.10 +0.81 155.96 152.00 7M 5.5M 149.65
