AAPL 03/27 Cup 155.89 +2.81 143.93 159.95 41M 50M 151.89
Target Hit. Took part of 9.3% stock, 47% option gain as AAPL rallied with the market to the 90 day SMA but stalled. After such a good run it is likely to test here & hence we took some nice gain.

AAPL 03/19 Cup 155.89 +2.81 132.43 149.95 41M 60M 151.89
Current.

ABFS 03/18 Flat 34.05 +0.41 32.92 39.65 339K 1.2M 33.18
Current. Resting some more near 34ish here in early April. Still just holding the 10 day EMA on light trade and expecting ABFS to head uphill once trade picks up. Can't do much without volume.

ACV 03/10 PreAnn 27.62 -0.34 28.26 38.32 324K 850K 27.11
Current. Consolidated some more in the upper 20s on low trade with a majority of the market. Still inside its consolidation range from February in the upper 20s and waiting for stronger volume to get this one going uphill again.

AIRM 03/21 Test 20 47.99 +0.01 48.40 58.32 101K 300K 49.86
Current. Holding at its testing low from Friday just under the 10 day EMA. Has key support from the 90 day SMA and 18 day EMA near 47 so no worries on this one just yet.

AKS 03/03 Test BO 62.99 +1.97 55.11 61.38 5.3M 4.5M 61.21
Target Hit. Took part of 14% stock, 53% option gain on AKS Monday with its high volume gap and climb through the session. Up 6 days in a row and almost $12 so took some off the table.

AKS 02/19 DB hdl 62.99 +1.97 49.55 58.95 5.3M 4M 61.21
Current.

AMX 04/05 PreAnn 64.89 -0.42 66.88 76.95 4.7M 10M 63.91
Buy Not Hit. Doji in the short step lower. Still nothing huge or worth crying over though as it holds above the 10 day EMA and late February high near 64. Waiting for a strong volume bounce to resume the Cup base uphill for the buy.

ANR 04/04 DB hdl 46.68 -1.15 47.18 55.95 5M 4.6M 44.94
Current. Gave back the Friday move higher on high volume Monday in a doji as ANR took a step lower. Nice, quick test here of the surge from late last week and as ANR tapped the intraday low from Friday here it looks good to continue its way uphill after this short test of the new high.

ASIA 04/01 Rev HS 12.15 +0.61 12.27 15.50 854K 500K 11.21
Entered today. ASIA looking great Monday on a surge higher on high volume. Running behind a solid Rev HS and looks good to continue higher from here.

BCR 03/25 PreAnn 98.73 +0.12 100.11 112.85 539K 1.3M 97.32
Buy Not Hit. Slowly walking its way higher through April after its gap higher at the start of this month, forming a handle just over the 10 day EMA. Still, not much pace to the move higher here as BCR runs on light trade so far in April. Waiting for stronger trade in the move to give us the buy.

BRKR 03/18 FlyPlat 16.16 +0.66 15.85 19.25 837K 1.1M 15.18
Current. Nice move higher off the 10 day EMA as BRKR resumes its Cup hdl base into the 16s. Nice pickup in trade as well as it holds just below average volume Monday.

CAT 03/18 Rev HS 77.25 -0.58 79.83 89.95 5.3M 11M 77.94
Current. Resting some more at the 10 day EMA on low trade and can't do much without volume really. CAT just taking a bit of a nap here until some trade wakes it up.

CELG 03/24 Flat 63.15 -1.16 61.26 73.55 2.8M 6M 62.04
Current. Sold a bit Monday, but on low trade. Hanging around the low 60s some more here in April until stronger volume takes it higher again or the market makes another climb.

CHRW 03/29 PreAnn 59.83 +0.88 57.15 65.45 2.9M 3M 57.38
Current. Nice move higher Monday with CHRW still on some rare, high volume as it continues the Cup hdl move into the 60s this week.

CHT 03/18 FlyPlat 25.86 +0.05 25.92 29.95 981K 3M 25.11
Current. Still consolidating in the upper 20s and no volume through April so far. On the bright side CHT is still above support from the 10 day EMA so no worries on this one just yet. Relaxing for now.

CHT 01/22 Test BO 25.86 +0.05 21.89 25.95 981K 1.2M 24.98
Current.

CLF 03/25 PreSplt 141.42 +4.09 121.84 134.95 1.8M 2M 138.22
Current. Doji as CLF gapped higher Monday on average trade to continue its Dbl btm move higher. Nice, just watching to see how CLF handles the doji gap higher here.

COST 04/02 Trnd Rv 66.30 -0.15 67.22 76.95 2.9M 9M 64.88
Buy Not Hit. Doji in the move laterally Monday with COST still at the 90 day SMA. Nice job holding support and all we need here is to see COST make the move higher on stronger volume and we're in.

CPST 03/12 Test BO 2.46 -0.08 2.11 3.55 4.2M 5M 2.42
Target Hit. Took part of 18% gain after rallied higher but started to peel off the peak. Just watching the above average volume selling early this week to see if CPST turns this move into a test through the week.

CRM 04/02 Cup hdl 65.05 -0.07 63.15 72.45 1.8M 2M 62.88
Current. Light selling for CRM Monday after a nice move higher initially. Below average volume in the session and after this quick test CRM looks good to resume the Cup hdl move higher. Wouldn't mind a test here though after a the strong run higher through early April.

CSH 03/27 Trnd Rv 40.39 -0.62 38.41 43.45 631K 700K 38.88
Current. Short step lower on just above average volume after a solid move higher through late last week for CSH. Short test here back near 40.0 and expecting CSH to resume the move higher again soon on this rare, above average volume.

CSX 03/27 Test BO 57.39 +0.10 56.62 62.95 3.1M 7.5M 56.38
Current. Resting some more at the 10 day EMA on low trade through April so far and no worries on this one just yet as it holds support. Just needs stronger volume to take the Rev HS uphill again.

CSX 03/17 DB hdl 57.39 +0.10 53.85 61.45 3.1M 7.5M 56.38
Current.

DNA 03/10 Test BO 78.65 -1.08 81.39 91.39 3.6M 6M 79.97
Current. Needs to pull itself up here after selling through Monday on rising, now just below average volume past the 10 and 18 day EMA.

DRS 03/27 Cup hdl 59.48 +0.54 58.24 66.95 292K 700K 58.08
Current. Short step higher with a doji Monday but still no trade. Has been reasonably quiet through April so far thanks to the lack of volume.

FCX 04/04 Rev HS 107.02 -0.67 106.38 120.95 14M 18M 104.32
Current. Ran uphill to start Monday out positive but turned from the intraday high near 110 and ran laterally along the Friday high. Above average volume here as FCX got in the market's short step lower. Still, FCX at support here from the March and February highs and expecting it to resume the Rev HS move higher again soon.

GILD 03/07 Dbl btm 52.06 -0.29 49.48 57.95 6.3M 11M 50.88
Current. Consolidating a bit longer in the low 50s with very light trade. Taking it easy here waiting for stronger volume to resume the Dbl btm higher. Very nice contained test and just about ready for the next move higher.

GME 03/26 Cup hdl 56.06 -0.36 54.12 63.95 1.6M 5M 53.89
Current. Quiet session for GME Monday on low volume as it moved laterally along the Friday high. Still no trade and can't take the Cup hdl higher with some pace until volume picks up.

GOOG 03/25 Dbl btm 476.82 +5.73 459.32 499.45 5.9M 8M 466.45
Current. GOOG Gapped higher with a doji at the 50 day SMA at the close. Modest session of gains and key to see it continue uphill past the 50 day SMA here. Not any trade on this bounce so moved up the stop if it runs out of gas here.

GTLS 03/25 DB hdl 36.81 -0.03 35.05 43.95 334K 558K 33.98
Current. Resting in the upper 30s at support from the early March highs. Needs to continue the DB hdl higher from here to show us it can handle the move past the prior high from early March.

HCBK 03/17 DB hdl 18.16 -0.26 17.53 21.42 10M 9M 17.95
Current. Continued its test of the DB hdl high back to the 10 day Monday. At support here from the average and key to see it hold and bounce higher once the market wakes up and resumes some upside movement.

IBM 03/05 DB hdl 116.31 +0.55 117.55 133.95 6.2M 12M 116.65

ISRG 03/21 Dbl btm 345.14 +6.70 302.12 348.00 1.4M 1.5M 335.00
Huge move higher initially Monday but came back to post a doji in the short step higher. Nice, above average volume here and with ISRG on a solid Dbl btm base it looks good to continue upside soon.

ISYS 04/05 Cup hdl 28.31 -0.24 29.42 34.95 111K 150K 27.92
Buy Not Hit. Doji for ISYS Monday on above average volume as it took a short step lower to support at the 18 day EMA. Just waiting to see its move off support here to give us the buy as it resumes its Cup hdl.

Buy Not Issued. Weathered some light selling Monday on below average volume. At support here from the 10 day EMA and March highs so KNDL still in decent shape, just needs stronger trade with a majority of the market to give us the buy.

KSU 03/29 Test BO 41.03 +0.90 40.15 46.95 1.5M 1.4M 39.48
Current. Bounced higher off the 10 day EMA Monday on above average volume for a light session of gains. No complaining on this one early this week with above average volume, a rarity here in early April, just need to see KSU continue higher past this late March high.

KWK 02/27 Test BO 38.11 -0.54 34.98 39.95 3M 3M 36.38
Current. Light selling Monday on high trade as KWK begins to test its early April high in the Rev HS and looks to continue a bit lower near the 10 day EMA at 36 here.

Buy Not Hit. Short step higher with a doji on high volume Monday. ME looking pretty quiet since late March due to some light trade so watching closely here with volume well above the average line to see if it gives us the buy on a move higher.

NBR 03/11 DB hdl 34.64 -0.68 32.80 37.95 8.7M 8M 33.65
Current. Gave back some of the early April gains in a bit of selling Monday on above average volume. However, with the 10 day EMA at 34.0 as support NBR is still in pretty decent shape.

Current. Sold back below the 10 day EMA as NKE continues its test through early April on light trade. Has key support from the 18 day EMA and late March low so watching to see NKE hold the line there as it moves down through the 60s.

Current. Gapped lower and sold hard through Monday on huge trade to close just below the key 90 day SMA. Still, there was no news on this so decided to give it a day to see if it can recover.

QQQQ 03/31 Cup 45.76 -0.10 44.74 49.95 102M 20M 44.92
Tapped the 90 day SMA and faded back. May test here after that low volume rise which would give a better entry point.

Current. Light move higher Monday given the low volume. Has a solid Cup hdl base and just took a breather at the start of the week after some decent upsides through early April.

Current.

ROC 04/02 Rev HS 35.55 +0.57 35.42 40.95 333K 525K 33.78
Buy Not Issued. ROC on just below average volume as it climbed through Monday for some solid gains but came back a bit to post just a short step higher. Has a great Rev HS base here but can't seem to get the volume it needs just yet to give us the buy.

SCHN 04/01 Rev HS 80.26 -0.13 74.55 88.45 636K 1M 77.32
Current. Doji in the move laterally Monday as SCHN rested after the Friday surge higher. Nice average trade here in the doji and expecting some more upsides shortly in the Rev HS.

Current. Gapped higher with a doji Monday for some modest gains on huge trade after giving back half its total gains on the day. Just watching to see how it handles this gap through the week on the high volume but inclined to just let it run.
