AAPL 04/09 Cup hdl 189.96 +1.80 153.75 174.55 29M 50M 182.75
Current. Quiet step higher on light volume. Easing its Cup hdl move higher from here and doing a good job of carrying the modest move higher from Monday so can't complain really. AAPL still in good shape, just watching the fading upside momentum here.

AAPL 03/27 Cup 189.96 +1.80 143.93 159.95 29M 50M 182.75
Current.

Current.

ACI 05/03 Test BO 65.15 +2.68 61.60 73.95 3.9M 5.5M 62.88
Current. Nice rebound out of the Monday selling for ACI as it bounced off the 10 day EMA as support and recovered the downsides from the start of the week. Doing well here as it consolidates a bit along support and looks good to continue higher in the Cup hdl once trade returns.

AMT 04/19 DB hdl 44.81 +0.31 42.61 48.95 3M 6M 42.82
Current. Doji in the short step higher as AMT took a breather here after sprinting uphill through Monday. Set to continue higher soon after the pit stop session for Tuesday.

Current. Quiet session for ANSS on a short doji move higher. Nice rising high volume here and ANSS looking good to continue the DB hdl move higher again soon.

ASIA 04/01 Rev HS 13.09 +0.05 12.27 15.50 621K 500K 12.95
Current. Still taking it easy at the 10 day EMA near 13.0 as it holds support here and consolidates a bit through early May. Saw some nice above average volume Tuesday but didn't do much with it and no concerns on this one just yet as it remains above key support.

AXP 04/29 Rev HS 49.01 -0.94 49.22 54.45 8.9M 10M 49.88
Current. Sold back to the 10 day EMA on rising, below average volume. Hanging around its testing low a bit longer here in early May and no problem with that as long as it continues to hold the 10 and 18 day EMAs as support.

BAM 05/07 Test 20 35.24 -0.31 35.15 39.95 857K 2M 33.98
Current. Resting here at the high of its Rev HS breakout. Light selling Tuesday to consolidate at the Monday peak and will watch to see how BAM works on this fading, low volume at its May high.

BBD 05/12 Test BO 23.00 -0.33 23.48 27.95 11M 10M 22.39
Buy Not Issued. Holding the 10 day EMA for another session here after gapping higher Monday. Nice job hanging onto support so will applaud it for that. Just needs to continue the move higher out of this early May test on this nice, rising above average volume for the buy.

Current.

BIDU 05/03 Cup hdl 368.40 +1.53 374.71 424.95 4.9M 11M 361.22
Current. Nice move higher for BIDU Tuesday as it bounced off the 10 day EMA intraday and posted some modest gains. Has some decent rising, below average volume here and watching it closely as it nears the late April, early May consolidated highs. Need it to punch through that level with some volume.

BMRN 05/07 DB hdl 39.37 -0.02 39.11 46.95 1.1M 2.9M 37.57
Current. Doji move laterally Tuesday on fading below average volume for BMRN as it holds at the DB hdl high. Taking a breather again here and watching the fading trade to see if it comes back to test from here.

BRCM 04/30 Test BO 27.47 +0.81 26.43 31.95 12M 23M 26.22
Current. Nice move higher as BRCM continues to climb out of its May test to the 18 day EMA. Has some solid, rising below average volume and nearing the key 200 day SMA(27.87) so watching it closely to see it make its move past the moving average without any resistance problems.

BZP 04/16 Test 50 24.97 +0.84 20.16 24.95 1.1M 1M 22.48
Target Hit. Took part of 23,7% stock, 78.9% option gain on BZP Tuesday as it surged again on average volume. Looking solid here and will let the rest run as long as it will in this solid DB hdl move into the mid 20s.

CAM 05/08 DB hdl 53.16 +1.75 51.97 61.95 4.1M 4.5M 50.45
Current. Tapped the 10 day EMA intraday just above 50.0 and surged off support from there to post some solid upsides in the session. Great, above average volume here as well with CAM in solid shape early on this week.

CAT 04/24 Test BO 84.07 +0.25 82.57 94.95 4.6M 7.5M 79.77
Buy Not Issued. Tapped the 10 day EMA intraday as support back near 83ish and bounced to post a doji move laterally. CAT in decent shape so far this week and just looking for it to climb on stronger volume to give us the buy. Needs to continue the Monday surge out of that late April early May consolidation.

CAT 03/18 Rev HS 84.07 +0.25 79.83 89.95 4.6M 11M 83.21
Current.

CCK 04/24 Test BO 28.10 +0.29 27.74 33.32 1.1M 2.2M 26.18
Buy Not Issued. Modest move higher for CCK Tuesday on fading below average volume. In decent shape but watching this fading volume as it continues to work its way uphill out of the testing low from early May. Ready to jump in on a move higher with some strong volume.

CELG 03/24 Flat 60.31 -1.42 61.26 73.55 5.8M 6M 62.04
Current. It is on the bubble here at the 200 day SMA after selling some more into Tuesday. Not too fond of the above average volume in the move lower here either and needs a bounce.

CHT 04/22 Rev HS 25.30 +0.17 26.60 30.55 908K 3.5M 25.57
Current. Continues to consolidate along the 50 day EMA through May as it posted a doji move laterally Tuesday. Not complaining however as it does a great job of holding the moving average as support. The only reason it continues to move laterally in early May is the low volume and some higher trade is all it takes to get going uphill again.

CLF 03/25 PreSplt 186.79 +6.24 121.84 134.95 1.9M 2M 178.89
Current. Tapped the 10 day EMA intraday on above average volume to test support and bounce from there. Closed the session with a solid move higher and with CLF on above average volume again here it looks good to climb some more this week.

CPST 03/12 Test BO 3.46 +0.19 2.11 3.55 7.4M 5M 3.18
Current. Another great move higher for CPST Tuesday and still holding high volume this week. No signs of running out of gas just yet and expecting some more upsides from here.

CRM 05/01 Test BO 67.95 +0.33 68.82 78.77 1.6M 2.4M 67.08
Current. Looking much better here as it held the 10 day EMA as support in a doji move laterally. Starting to work its way higher from the testing low at the 18 day EMA here in early May and love the rising, now average trade levels.

CRM 04/02 Cup hdl 67.95 +0.33 63.15 72.45 1.6M 2M 67.11
Current.

CSIQ 04/30 DB hdl 40.78 +6.68 28.85 33.95 17M 2M 38.88
Target Hit. Took some more big option gain (184%) or $890/contract as CSIQ gave a huge gap higher on explosive volume on the earnings announcement. Impressive.

CSX 03/27 Test BO 64.98 +0.99 56.62 62.95 4M 7.5M 62.89
Current. Nice move higher off the 10 day EMA on rising, below average volume. Doing a good job here of quickly recovering its early May test and set to continue uphill on the rising trade. Hats off to CSX for a nice test to start out the month.

CSX 03/17 DB hdl 64.98 +0.99 53.85 61.45 4M 7.5M 62.89
Current.

Current.

CY 04/15 DB hdl 28.57 +0.82 28.04 34.98 4.6M 8.5M 27.44
Current. Tapped the 18 day EMA intraday near 27.5ish and bounced off the average as support to post some solid gains from there. Great boost in trade as well with CY in great shape on just below average volume early this week in the DB hdl move higher.

CYBS 05/05 Test BO 17.20 +0.08 17.88 21.55 362K 1.4M 16.63
Buy Not Issued. Resting some more here at the testing low of its late April high. Tapped the 18 day EMA intraday near 16.6 and bounced to hold the 10 day EMA as support. Like the test of the 18 day EMA here to show its made a solid bottom in the test and given the low volume CYBS looks good to make its recovery move soon. Watching for the buy from there.

DRYS 04/26 DB hdl 98.20 +1.56 86.45 104.95 4.2M 6M 93.42
Current. Doji move higher for some modest gains Tuesday on above average volume. DRYS in decent shape here and like the volume as it takes the DB hdl through the upper 90s this week. Not bad at all.

DSX 05/12 Cup hdl 34.31 +0.69 34.62 42.95 2.9M 2.1M 32.39
Entered today. Jumped in on DSX as it gave some huge volume in the move higher. Continuing some solid upside movement from Monday and taking a strong Cup hdl base into the mid 30s this week for a great entry point.

EGLE 04/17 DB hdl 34.53 -0.22 28.42 33.95 810K 750K 32.89
Current. Resting Tuesday on above average volume after the Monday surge. No problem with that after sprinting uphill through the Monday session and looking good to continue the DB hdl breakout again soon after this doji in the short step lower.

EXM 05/12 DB hdl 52.10 +1.58 51.33 74.95 3.2M 1.5M 47.74
Entered today. Great move higher with another session of strong, high volume as EXM continues its DB hdl breakout from Tuesday. Behind a solid base here and love the high trade as we jumped in with EXM looking to climb some more from here.

Buy Not Issued. Tapped the 18 day EMA intraday at 33.0 and bounced from there to hold the 10 day EMA as support. Great job holding onto the Monday surge and if it can pick up some stronger volume and resume the Monday move higher we will enter.

GLW 04/21 Cup 25.78 -0.31 26.48 30.48 14M 20M 26.04
Current. Sold again Tuesday on above average volume as it hit the 18 day EMA as resistance and went downhill from there. Has to make a stand here and is still in a good pattern, just not performing.

GNA 05/05 Cup hdl 16.03 -0.07 16.73 20.75 1.6M 1.2M 15.48
Current. Sold a bit Tuesday but recovered most during the session to move laterally along support from the 10 day EMA. Nice, high volume here to hold key support from the late February and April highs to let us know its still in good shape.

GNK 05/10 Test BO 81.99 +0.56 77.85 92.95 1.4M 1M 76.31
Current. Doji move laterally along the Monday high for GNK as it rests after the surge from the start of the week. Still high volume here and expecting some more upsides soon in the DB hdl base.

GNK 04/21 Rev HS 81.99 +0.56 68.36 79.95 1.4M 1M 79.21
Current.

GOOG 05/10 Cup hdl 583.00 -1.94 586.27 695.00 5.2M 10M 568.72
Current. Light selling for GOOG Tuesday on below average volume as it rests some more at the pullback low of May here at the 10 day EMA. Nice job holding support and GOOG getting restless at the bottom here with volume picking up. Expecting some solid upside movement soon off support from the 10 day EMA as GOOG begins to work its way uphill.

HGT 05/05 Asc Bse 31.81 -0.21 30.48 34.95 203K 345K 30.54
Current. Light selling with a doji Tuesday as HGT makes a quick test here early this week of its Asc bse high. Volume is already back below average volume the average line. Won't be long before its heading uphill again.

IBM 04/26 FlyPlat 126.58 +1.34 126.38 139.95 9.7M 9M 122.78
Entered today. Jumped in on IBM Tuesday as it gave some rising, now above average volume in another solid move higher in the FlyPlat base. In great shape here as it holds onto some great trade levels and climbs through the mid 120s.

Current.

Current. Great move higher for ICO Tuesday. Strong, high volume as well in the session with no signs of running out of steam any time soon. Solid Cup hdl base as well. All around in pretty good shape.

ITU 05/08 Test BO 27.96 -0.34 28.38 34.00 3.9M 7.5M 27.05
Buy Not Issued. Resting some more at its testing low at support from the 10 and 18 day EMA here in early May on light volume. All it takes here is some stronger trade to give it a bounce off support and start uphill again for the buy.

ITU 04/26 DB hdl 27.96 -0.34 27.96 32.95 3.9M 9M 28.21
Current.

JRJC 04/30 Dbl btm 22.09 -0.30 21.05 26.38 718K 1.8M 22.11
Current. Started higher with some gusto early on Tuesday but gave it back intraday to close flat. Not too fond of the midday turnover here but at best it managed to hold onto its Monday gains in the Dbl btm. Still in good shape to work its way higher out of the pullback through early May and needs to do so here.

KSU 05/10 Test BO 47.33 +0.55 46.85 54.88 1.2M 1.2M 44.89
Buy Not Issued. Looking good with another modest move higher Tuesday on average volume. Hasn't seen some average trade since the first week of May and if it can continue the positive action here we're in.

KSU 03/29 Test BO 47.33 +0.55 40.15 46.95 1.2M 1.4M 45.21
Current.

MAN 05/07 Cup hdl 69.24 -1.11 69.31 79.95 1.1M 1.2M 67.11
Current. Light selling to test the Monday surge a bit Tuesday. Just above average volume here and a bit lower than the Monday volume in the move uphill so looking to be a quick test here before MAN is back on its feet again and climbing.

MATK 05/05 Test BO 35.70 +0.63 35.31 41.95 261K 750K 34.38
Buy Not Issued. Deep reach lower intraday back just under the 18 day EMA(34.72), but managed to hold the 10 day EMA and post some modest upsides at the close. Still not much trade however and if it can continue this upside movement on some stronger trade we're in.

MEA 04/23 Test BO 15.45 -0.25 14.28 17.75 959K 455K 14.02
Current. Doji move laterally Tuesday for MEA as it had about half of the volume Monday had in its surge higher. Just a quick breather here before MEA looks to take the Cup hdl uphill again.

MPWR 04/28 Cup hdl 25.04 +1.07 22.72 26.88 1.4M 685K 23.24
Current. Great move higher again for MPWR Tuesday as it continued the Monday upsides and picked up the pace some. Trade as even higher as well as MPWR let us know it is out to impress us the week. So far doing a great job of doing just that.

MTL 04/17 Test BO 156.95 -0.74 153.53 180.95 1.1M 1.4M 149.88
Current. Tapped the 10 day EMA intraday back near 150.0 on rising, just below average volume but bounced a bit to recover some of the intraday selling. Overall just a move laterally along the Monday high as MTL slowly, but surely works its way higher from the early May testing low at the 50 day EMA back near 140.

NBR 03/11 DB hdl 39.51 +0.91 32.80 37.95 7.3M 8M 37.92
Current. Reached down to tap the 18 day EMA intraday at 38.0ish before rebounding off the average and posting some light gains on above average volume. Not bad. Looks to climb from here on the boost of trade from Tuesday.

NSC 05/06 Test BO 64.42 +1.04 63.40 72.75 4M 3.6M 61.78
Current. NSC in great shape this week as volume continues to rise, now above the average line, and it continues its Asc bse move higher into Tuesday. No signs of this one hitting the breaks just yet.

NTES 05/08 Test BO 24.43 +0.29 23.55 29.31 1.1M 1.5M 23.08
Current. Doji in some light upsides on above average volume Tuesday as NTES continues higher out of its test back to the 10 day EMA through early May. So far doing a great job of recovering the test. Just watching this fading volume and upside momentum Tuesday.

NUE 03/19 Test 18 81.39 +0.05 72.16 81.95 3.7M 8M 78.32
Current. Doji move laterally to take a breather Tuesday after a big move higher from Monday. Has fading, below average volume here as it continues to consolidate in the low 80s/upper 70s. No problem here as long as it can continue to hold above support from the 10 day EMA.

NUVA 04/23 Test 20 40.67 +0.37 40.17 46.25 263K 600K 39.38
Current. NUVA with some modest upsides on fading, low volume Tuesday. Weakening a bit as it hit the late April and early May highs here and watching closely to see if it can hang onto its high here.

NVDA 05/07 DB hdl 21.44 -0.45 23.35 28.65 21M 21M 21.72
Current. Light selling again Tuesday as NVDA closed at support from the 50 day EMA on average trade. Needs to bounce off this 50 day EMA test.

OTEX 04/05 PreAnn 37.02 -0.74 35.31 41.95 553K 1M 36.92
Current. Started out with a great move higher but turn over intraday to move downhill a bit and close at support from the 10 day EMA. Just below average volume Tuesday for OTEX as it holds at its testing low a bit longer in the mid 30ish range for now until stronger trade can take it uphill again.

PSEM 04/19 Cup hdl 17.42 +0.37 16.09 19.25 393K 445K 16.31
Current. PSEM with another great session of upsides as it continued the Monday breakout and held onto its high volume for a second consecutive session. Looking pretty solid here as it resumes the Cup hdl base into the 17s this week.

QQQQ 05/06 Test 20 49.22 +0.13 49.21 52.60 85M 140M 48.04
Buy Not Issued. Took a breather Tuesday on fading, below average volume as QQQQ gave a doji at the Monday high. Ready to jump in as soon as QQQQ can show us some more upsides on stronger trade in the Asc bse.

RIG 05/03 PreAnn 149.03 +0.61 154.38 175.75 11M 7M 153.78
Current. Doji off the 50 day EMA as it did to start the month. Want to see some similar action from the start of the month and climb from here and if it cannot and stalls we unload it.

Current. Doji in some light selling from the Monday surging high. Just below average volume in the short step lower here with RIMM looking good to resume its move higher in the Cup hdl from Monday again soon.

Current.

SCHN 04/15 FlyPlat 97.03 +2.43 85.21 99.75 433K 850K 92.22
Target Hit. Took some interim gain (13% stock, 54% option) on SCHN Tuesday with its move higher on the pullback in trade. Below average volume here and will let the rest run as high as it can for us from here. Solid uptrend so far from mid April.

SCHN 04/01 Rev HS 97.03 +2.43 74.55 88.45 433K 1M 92.22
Current.

SINA 05/12 DB hdl 51.88 +0.83 51.39 59.95 3.3M 1.3M 47.95
Buy Not Issued. Doji move laterally Tuesday on high volume. Resting a bit after surging through last Friday and Monday and can't blame it. Has been working hard. Just needs to pick it up again soon and use this high trade to really get the DB hdl going for the buy.

SOHU 04/01 DB hdl 81.80 -0.40 50.31 59.95 2.3M 1.8M 78.78
Current. Resting Tuesday on a pullback in trade to just above the average line. Just a pit stop session here for SOHU and expecting some more upsides in the DB hdl soon after this doji breather.

SOL 05/03 Test 18 21.67 +2.84 17.28 23.85 7.2M 1.2M 20.21
Current. SOL in great shape Tuesday as it surged off the Monday doji breather and exploded into the 21 dollar area. Huge volume in the Cup hdl breakout looking to take SOL uphill from here.

SPWR 04/08 Cup hdl 89.00 +4.60 90.80 128.88 4M 5.6M 96.88
Current. Starting to wake up here as it gapped and climbed to the 200 day SMA Tuesday on a boost of volume to above the average line. Looking pretty good here. Very key to see it pass the 200 day SMA here though.

SVNT 05/10 Rev HS 24.66 +0.65 25.02 30.65 966K 2M 23.27
Buy Not Hit. Recovered the Monday selling as it rebounded off support from the early March high. Not much volume here as SVNT continues to consolidate along the Rev HS high in the 24s. Just needs stronger volume to really get the base going uphill for the buy.

TEX 04/28 Rev HS 72.59 +0.04 74.91 89.95 1.3M 3M 71.32
Current. Doji move laterally as TEX tapped the 18 day EMA intraday and bounced to hold the 10 day EMA as support. Not much trade here, but not throwing a huge fit as TEX does a good job of holding support here.

TTEK 05/06 Test BO 24.01 +0.39 23.65 28.45 314K 900K 22.55
Buy Not Issued. TTK on another quiet step higher here as it progressively works its way uphill from the test through early May. All it takes here is some stronger volume to let us in.

ULTI 05/08 Test BO 35.34 0.00 35.72 42.95 186K 325K 33.94
Buy Not Hit. Still hanging around the 10 day EMA as it starts to work its way higher in the DB hdl base. Hasn't gotten the volume it needs just yet however and once trade picks up to take ULTI uphill again we will be ready to jump in.

VMI 05/03 Test BO 111.73 +1.22 106.01 123.95 255K 572K 106.11
Current. Nice move higher with a doji Tuesday as VMI shows rising, below average volume. Nice Cup hdl base here, just needs to pick up the trade a bit to really get the move going.

VRSN 05/10 DB hdl 38.63 +0.67 38.61 47.95 4.2M 4.5M 36.98
Entered today. Great move higher on above average volume as VRSN continues its DB hdl breakout into Tuesday. Gave a great buy point after the quick test from Monday and looks ready to continue even higher from here.

WFT 05/03 PreAnn 87.09 +2.35 83.42 99.95 4.4M 6M 83.55
Current. Tapped the 18 day EMA at 82.5 and bounced to hold the 10 day EMA as support and surge from there. Strong move higher from here after a nice test of support with WFT in great shape as it takes the DB hdl uphill again here.

XIDE 05/12 Test 50 13.64 -0.49 14.28 17.24 990K 1.2M 13.28
Buy Not Issued. Started uphill initially but came back intraday to close with a short step lower. Just below average volume here for XIDE as it finishes up its test of the 50 day EMA here from mid April and if it can show some strong volume in a recovery move will enter.

XIDE 03/08 Test BO 13.64 -0.49 11.53 14.48 990K 800K 10.71
Buy Not Hit.

YUM 04/23 Rev HS 40.94 +0.34 41.27 47.65 3.7M 4.5M 39.93
Current. Nice move higher on above average volume as YUM gave a doji in some modest gains Tuesday. Running behind a pretty solid Rev HS base and looking good to climb some more from here. Just watching it closely as it approaches the late April/early May highs as possible resistance.
