Upside Plays
Stock Date Play Close +/- Pivot Tgt Vol TgtV Stop
AAPL 03/19 Cup 139.53 +6.26 132.43 149.95 38M 60M 135.77
Current. Nice move higher with the market bounce and without much trade. Looks good here resuming some upsides in March after resting at its pullback low near 120 through early 08.

ABFS 03/18 Flat 35.20 +1.74 32.92 39.65 658K 1.2M 33.18
Current. Continued the Friday surge higher but without the explosive trade from late last week. Nice job running uphill with the market and expecting some more upsides from here.

ACV 03/10 PreAnn 27.39 -0.06 28.26 38.32 618K 850K 27.11
Current. Light selling on below average volume back to the 18 day EMA. Still just resting at the bottom of its testing low at support from the 18 day EMA and February consolidation. Just has to continue to hold the line here to stay on our good side.

AIRM 03/21 Test 20 47.81 +0.86 47.31 56.95 298K 300K 45.05
Buy Not Issued. Almost took some positions after gap higher to the 90 day SMA Monday, but decided to give it another day to make it over the key average here. Still a buy on a continued upside move.

AKS 03/03 Test BO 53.38 +1.90 55.11 61.38 2.6M 4.5M 52.68
Current. Gave back a lot of a nice gap and run intraday to start the week off, but gave some decent gains nonetheless. Still holding in the middle of the March range and do not want to see it fade back below the 18 day EMA on the close.

AKS 02/19 DB hdl 53.38 +1.90 49.55 58.95 2.6M 4M 52.68
Current.

ANSS 03/18 Dbl btm 38.79 +1.49 38.62 43.95 918K 850K 37.11
Entered today. Jumped in on ANSS Wednesday as it surged through the session on above average volume past any remaining resistance from the 90 day SMA. Solid move higher here to start the week off looking great.

APC 03/01 DB hdl 62.56 +1.89 65.72 74.85 4.9M 7.4M 63.68
Exited. Low volume bounce from the hard selling gave us just the move we needed to save some gains and get out of this one.

BKE 03/13 PreAnn 48.11 +1.28 47.89 54.98 694K 500K 45.78
Entered today. Entered BKE Monday on its solid move higher with high volume. Good to see some stocks on strong trade against a relatively weak volume session Monday. BKE in great shape early this week and set to head into the 50s this week at this rate.

BLK 03/21 Dbl btm 224.53 +18.43 206.88 230.00 1.5M 998K 201.39
Buy Not Issued. Flashed through the buy point a few minutes after the open. Waited for it to come back and test but it never did as it hit the target on the session as well. Too late to try and take any positions until it sets up again and dropping for now until we see a test.

BNI 03/12 DB hdl 93.24 +1.63 92.08 99.95 2.9M 4.5M 92.31
Current. Modes move higher on fading, below average volume. Not much trade overall in the market Monday as it pushed uphill as BNI ran right alongside it. Nice DB hdl base, looks good to continue the base move higher after this kick start higher from Monday.

CAT 03/18 Rev HS 76.03 +2.21 77.32 86.95 5.4M 11M 74.55
Buy Not Hit. Nice move higher but not much trade. Continuing its volatile consolidation through the last half of March between 74 and 76 and if it can continue higher from here we're in.

CHT 03/18 FlyPlat 26.64 +1.57 25.42 29.45 2.8M 3M 23.98
Buy Not Issued. Gapped higher and sat there. Decided not to enter as volume was running lower and it couldn't do anything with the gap.

CHT 01/22 Test BO 26.64 +1.57 21.89 25.95 2.8M 1.2M 24.98
Current.

CRZO 03/01 Test BO 54.47 +1.95 58.88 69.95 481K 600K 57.98
Exited. Nice bounce off the 90 day SMA to recover most of the heavy Friday selling. Used this move higher with the market to exit.

CSX 03/17 DB hdl 56.06 +1.47 53.85 61.45 7.5M 7.5M 53.92
Current. Great move higher with strong trade while the rest of the market was a bit short on volume. CSX in good shape to take this DB hdl move even higher from here.

DNA 03/10 Test BO 78.84 -0.42 81.39 91.39 2.5M 6M 78.32
Current. Light selling back to the 10 day EMA to hold the average as support on low trade. Just setting up to make the move higher out of this test back to support in the high 70s. Needs to bounce soon.

EAC 02/23 DB hdl 37.01 +1.34 37.00 42.95 563K 875K 37.32
Exited. Bounced off the low of last week after some rough selling back to the 50 day EMA. Gave some strong gains here on low trade and gave us just the exit point we were waiting for to recover a bit of the selling.

ECA 02/23 DB hdl 72.23 +0.38 73.15 86.88 2M 3.8M 77.02
Exited. Modest move higher on low trade with the market Monday and used the bounce to exit here after the rough selling from late last week.

ESV 03/04 Cup hdl 61.01 +0.78 62.30 70.95 2.1M 3.8M 61.78
Current. Short step higher on low trade. If it cannot move on through 62 on another try we close it and if it doesn't even make another try we close it.

FDP 03/08 Asc Tri 37.71 +1.95 36.24 41.95 846K 1M 33.98
Buy Not Issued. Trade was lower today in the move higher with the market than Friday on that selling. May have been expiration volume on Friday, but if it can show some more solid trade we will enter.

GILD 03/07 Dbl btm 49.61 +1.18 49.48 57.95 8.8M 11M 47.45
Entered today. Jumped in on GILD Monday as it blasted higher on just below average volume. Rest of the market really suffered for some strong trade so it was good to see GILD on modest levels at least and looks set for a good week after the great start Monday.

HCBK 03/17 DB hdl 18.13 -0.16 17.53 21.42 11M 9M 17.42
Current. Looks as if it will take a breather after a strong breakout and initial run through March as it gave a short step lower Monday. Just above average volume as well after high levels from last week.

IBM 03/05 DB hdl 119.06 +0.73 117.55 133.95 8.4M 12M 116.65
Current. Short step higher on low trade. IBM still just doing its own thing here and ready to take the DB hdl even higher once trade picks up. Otherwise in great shape and taking its sweet time after a slow and steady run higher through March.

ISRG 03/21 Dbl btm 327.24 +26.55 302.12 348.00 1.5M 1.5M 293.89
Buy Not Issued. Another one that gapped higher and flew right on past the buy point without coming back to test and giving us a shot at it. Just needs to show a test to open up some buy points.

KWK 02/27 Test BO 33.48 +1.06 34.98 39.95 1.5M 3M 35.97
Current. Was ready to exit after the low volume bounce and tap at resistance from the 10 day EMA, but gave it another chance to clear the 10 and 18 day EMA here. If it can't make the move we're out.

KWK 02/05 Test BO 33.48 +1.06 30.78 36.45 1.5M 3.4M 35.97
Current.

LKQX 03/21 Cup hdl 23.86 +0.54 23.52 28.31 1.7M 1.9M 21.94
Buy Not Issued. Gapped higher and surged to 25 but then spent the session giving that post-gap surge back. Held off because it may very well fill that gap before it continues so watching closely from here.

LSTR 03/07 Cup hdl 52.95 +1.62 49.05 56.45 1.6M 1M 49.92
Gapped higher to close with a doji on huge trade Monday. Nice session of gains for LSTR to kick off the week continuing its Cup hdl through the 50s and only expecting some more of this positive action from here.

MA 02/09 Rev HS 216.50 -3.88 208.22 239.00 5.5M 5M 215.32
Target Hit. Surged to 230 on strong trade, but then started to waffle so we took part of the option gain off the table.

NBR 03/11 DB hdl 31.35 +0.98 32.57 37.95 4.6M 8M 31.05
Buy Not Hit. Great move higher but not much trade after the pullback to the 50 day EMA from last week. If it continues to climb from here we will enter.

NUE 03/19 Test 18 71.26 +2.30 72.16 81.95 4.6M 8M 68.22
Entered today. Great buy point from NUE Monday on a solid move higher out of its test of the 18 day EMA from Friday. Below average volume in the move and set to climb from here after the jumpstart uphill from Monday.

ODFL 03/10 Cup hdl 32.54 +2.47 30.36 35.95 985K 840K 30.88
Current. Exploded higher on above average volume. Comparatively ODFL had excellent trade as the rest of the market was somewhat suffering on low levels of volume. Strong move higher in the Cup hdl early this week to start the week of right.

PCLN 03/21 Asc Bse 124.73 +6.10 127.64 144.95 3.2M 2.2M 119.92
Entered today. Surged higher over 130 on the peak, putting on a nice gain after we bought in only to turn over and give back a chunk of the gain in the afternoon. Still gave some modest gains on strong trade however and expecting it to only climb from here.

POT 02/16 Rev HS 150.80 +6.54 152.59 172.95 8.7M 7.8M 158.91
Current. Surged uphill on above average volume but came back a bit intraday. Needs to continue higher or we close it.

POT 01/12 Test 50 150.80 +6.54 143.11 164.32 8.7M 5.5M 158.91
Current.

PRGO 03/15 Asc Tri 38.81 +0.91 37.85 43.95 2.6M 2M 36.45
Current. Impressive move higher on huge trade Monday, a rarity in the low volume session at the start of the week. PRGO behind a great Asc Tri base that looks to carry it even higher through the week after this strong start. Awesome.

RIG 02/23 Cup hdl 131.06 -0.08 142.88 163.85 4.8M 11M 139.88
Current. Stalled at the 90 day SMA after a low volume step lower against an upside session in the market. Has to make another run and move through the 90 day SMA or we close it.

RIMM 03/21 DB hdl 111.83 +6.89 111.25 126.95 21M 32M 105.85
Entered today. Gapped and climbed for some great gains Monday on rising, below average volume. Solid DB hdl leading RIMM into the 110s this week as we jumped in at the strong start to the week.

RIMM 02/09 Dbl btm 111.83 +6.89 92.30 105.95 21M 32M 105.22
Current.

SCSC 03/21 Rev HS 36.54 +1.11 36.26 41.95 428K 450K 34.05
Buy Not Issued. Modest move higher on above average volume for SCSC Monday as it looks to be resuming its solid Rev HS base early this week. Has rested through most of March so far at key support from the 50 day EMA and 90 day SMA near 34 and if it can continue this move uphill on strong trade we're in.

SDA 03/08 Cup 19.14 +0.59 18.73 22.48 252K 450K 18.08
Current. Great move higher on fading, now low volume. Still volatile here in late March just under the 20 dollar mark and once trade picks up SDA looks good to make a solid push higher in the Cup base.

SIAL 03/18 FlyPlat 58.41 +1.17 58.42 66.95 1.9M 1.2M 56.45
Entered today. Above average volume in a strong move higher off the 10 day EMA for some solid gains. Decided to buy here with SIAL set to climb uphill in a solid Cup hdl.

STLD 03/17 Test BO 67.48 +1.71 70.11 78.95 2M 3M 66.92
Current. Continuing a solid bounce off support from the 18 day EMA from Friday with STLD climbing through the upper 60s on below average volume this week. Looks pretty decent as it gave some modest gains Monday.

STLD 03/05 Cup hdl 67.48 +1.71 63.58 71.55 2M 3M 66.91
Current.

SWN 03/13 PreSplt 61.94 +1.51 62.55 68.45 1.9M 3.8M 60.39
Buy Not Issued. Nice bounce off the 50 day SMA on low trade Monday with the market taking a step higher early this week. Looks good to start recovering the selling from last week and if it can continue higher from here we're in.

WFR 03/13 Asc Bse 83.91 +2.12 85.31 95.75 3.8M 6M 92.32
Current. Short step higher on fading, low volume. Modest gains here off the 10 day EMA and WFR still in good shape holding support from the February highs and 10 day EMA. Set to continue the Asc Bse into the mid 80s once trade picks up.

WFR 02/09 Rev HS 83.91 +2.12 81.09 95.95 3.8M 7M 82.32
Current.

WMS 03/08 PreAnn 39.67 +1.20 40.22 47.75 1M 1.1M 38.21
Current. Above average volume for WMS Monday with a strong move off the 10 day EMA in the market move higher early this week. In good shape to take the Rev HS uphill here with the help from the market off its test of the 50 day EMA.

XTO 03/07 Test BO 58.57 +1.07 61.63 70.95 4.2M 6.2M 59.77
Current. Stalled at the 10 and 18 day EMA after a modest move higher on low trade. If cannot move through this point we close it.

Downside Plays
Stock Date Play Close +/- Pivot Tgt Vol TgtV Stop
AET 03/15 Put 44.23 +1.14 43.65 40.25 5.7M 5.8M 45.72
Buy Not Issued. Short step higher with the market to resistance at the 10 day EMA on above average volume. If it can turn downhill from resistance here after this breather in late March we will enter.

AGU 03/19 Dbl Top 63.24 +1.93 62.89 57.75 3.1M 3.8M 65.22
Buy Not Issued. Light upsides with the market Monday but on light trade to close just under resistance from the 90 day SMA. Need to see it turn lower from here as this is a key level of resistance for AGU.

ANN 03/15 Put 24.70 +1.72 21.85 19.65 1.8M 2M 22.55
Buy Not Issued. Surged uphill with the market past key resistance from the 18 day EMA and 50 day EMA with no problem so we dropped it.

CMED 03/19 Put 40.50 +3.34 38.47 36.00 581K 775K 39.88
Buy Not Issued. Exploded higher past the key 200 day SMA with the market move higher Monday so we yanked the cable on this one.

CPRT 03/15 Dbl Top 39.52 +0.39 38.55 35.55 664K 1.2M 39.88
Buy Not Issued. Short step higher Monday but that's all CPRT needed to get on our bad side as it broke resistance from the 90 day SMA and 50 day EMA with ease. Dropped it.

CVX 03/19 Put 84.01 +0.80 83.88 79.12 10M 15M 85.11
Buy Not Issued. Quiet move uphill on low trade to tap resistance at the 50 day SMA(84.64) intraday. Short bounce here and from last Friday and once it turns lower to resume the selling from last week we're in.

DIA 03/12 Put 125.34 +2.23 119.80 115.85 15M 17M 121.55
Current. Gapped higher so decided to see if it would test. It didn't, but looking for a tap toward the 50 day EMA before it continues higher. Will use that to exit.

IWM 03/12 Put 69.99 +2.63 65.69 63.45 87M 100M 67.38
Current. Gapped higher and cleared the March peaks. Closed just over the 50 day EMA where it failed three times in Feb. Expect a test of it, and if it holds that is the time to close it.

SDS 03/12 Test 18 61.89 -2.50 66.12 72.50 23M 30M 65.92
Current. Gapped lower as SP500 opened higher. Will give it a chance to test the 50 day EMA as SP500 closed just below its 50 day EMA.
