THE PLAYS:
New Plays:
Play Date: 04/21/2008
BG (Bunge Ltd.--$119.00; +1.86; optionable): Agribusiness, Fertilizer, Food products
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/b/bg.html
EARNINGS: 4-24-08 before the open
STATUS: Test breakout. BG surged higher last Wednesday on strong volume, clearing a range of resistance from 110 to 115. Strong volume on that move and then a nice lateral move on lower trade, holding above that consolidation range, tapping it on the session lows and rebounding. Earnings are just ahead (Thursday morning), but we like the pattern a lot as BG comes back from the March selling that made the bottom of the base, a base that was needed after the strong 2007 move. Looking to move in as it continues higher after this lateral consolidation of the strong move higher.
Volume: 2.623M Avg Volume: 2.746M
BUY POINT: $120.57 Volume=3.5M Target=$134.95 Stop=$115.11
POSITION: BG GD - July $120c (49 delta) &/or Stock

Play Date: 04/21/2008
GLW (Corning--$25.73; +0.03; optionable): Glass products include flat screen monitors
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/g/glw.html
EARNINGS: 4-29-08
STATUS: Cup. Working on a 10 month base and forming something of a handle the past two weeks, testing lower last week and rebounding, making a higher low. In very good position, and in the right sector of the consumer market regardless of a recession as consumers still want their flat screens.
Volume: 9.095M Avg Volume: 13.92M
BUY POINT: $26.22 Volume=20M Target=$30.21 Stop=$25.18
POSITION: GLW HE - Aug. $25c (64 delta) &/or Stock

Play Date: 04/21/2008
GNK (Genco Shipping & Trading--$66.26; -0.03; optionable): Shipping
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/g/gnk.html
EARNINGS: 5-1-08
STATUS: Test breakout. GNK broke out from a 5.5 month reverse head and shoulders base last Wednesday, breaking past the late February and early March peak on a shot of very strong, above average volume. One of the strong running shipping stocks from mid-2006 through Q3 2007, GNK needed a base to consolidate the run and set the foundation for the next one. Nicely done. Working laterally Monday after a Friday bounce higher. Looking to move in as GNK makes its next break higher.
Volume: 676.746K Avg Volume: 986.113K
BUY POINT: $67.42 Volume=1M Target=$77.75 Stop=$64.77
POSITION: GNK GM - July $65c (55 delta) &/or Stock

Play Date: 04/21/2008
ICE (Intercontinental Exchange--$159.55; +2.88; optionable): Energy exchange
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/i/ice.html
EARNINGS: 5-2-08
STATUS: Cup w/handle. Nice above average volume surge Thursday as ICE broke higher from a three week handle. Nicely formed 4 month base set up the move, and after the break ICE held its gains on lower trade Friday and Monday. Like what we are seeing with this one, and on the next break higher we will be ready to move in as it continues its breakout move.
Volume: 1.348M Avg Volume: 2.36M
BUY POINT: $160.45 Volume=3M Target=$184.95 Stop=$155.88
POSITION: IHH FL - June $160c (53 delta) &/or Stock

New buy point on current position:
Play Date: 04/21/2008
ME (Mariner Energy--$29.55; -0.18; optionable): Oil and gas drilling, exploration
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/m/me.html
EARNINGS: 5-6-08
STATUS: Test breakout. Nice surge last week and one-half off of near support at the 18 day EMA. After that move it is testing back on lower volume, showing a tight doji ME above the 10 day EMA (28.93). May slide back a bit more to test the 10 day, but a nice test and we are looking at adding positions as it makes the break higher from this pullback to near support.
Volume: 755.201K Avg Volume: 1.015M
BUY POINT: $29.88 Volume=1.2M Target=$33.95 Stop=$29.82
POSITION: ME HF - Aug. $30c (48 delta) &/or Stock
