AAPL 04/09 Cup hdl 186.26 -3.70 153.75 174.55 33M 50M 182.75
Current. Modest selling for AAPL Wednesday on rising, below average volume as the market turned over a bit intraday. Not too fond of this market turnover here but AAPL still in good shape above support from the May high and 10 day EMA.

AAPL 03/27 Cup 186.26 -3.70 143.93 159.95 33M 50M 182.75
Current.

AAPL 03/19 Cup 186.26 -3.70 132.43 149.95 33M 60M 182.75
Current.

ACI 05/03 Test BO 62.13 -3.02 61.60 73.95 3.8M 5.5M 62.88
Current. Back at support from the 10 day EMA and April high as it gave back at the Tuesday gains in some selling Wednesday. After that higher volume selling Monday and the inability to push the Tuesday gain further ACI needs to hold here.

ACL 04/28 DB hdl 155.30 +2.55 161.51 179.95 204K 625K 155.94
Current. Bounced from the light Tuesday selling, but on low volume to resistance at the 18 day EMA. If cannot move up here it is a sell.

AMT 04/19 DB hdl 45.38 +0.57 42.61 48.95 3.1M 6M 43.97
Current. Still on below average volume but managed some nice upsides through the session while most of the market sold. AMT in good shape in its DB hdl base as it continues uphill.

ANSS 05/08 Test BO 45.14 -0.32 44.58 52.95 832K 1M 43.11
Current. Resting here midweek on below average volume with a doji move laterally as the market closed flat. Given the low volume doji here ANSS is still looking strong and expecting some more upsides in the DB hdl base soon.

ASIA 04/01 Rev HS 13.38 +0.29 12.27 15.50 624K 500K 12.95
Current. Nice move higher off the 10 day EMA on above average volume. Not anything too spectacular but it's a start.

ATK 04/30 DB hdl 110.98 -0.93 111.85 124.95 354K 412K 109.21
Current. Light selling back to the 18 day EMA for ATK Wednesday on above average volume. Holding support here so no concerns just yet with ATK continuing its routine pullback to the 18 day EMA through May.

ATW 05/03 PreAnn 101.78 -3.30 105.44 123.95 582K 700K 102.91
Current. Went through some modest selling Wednesday, but it is still above the 50 day EMA and price support at 100 from February. That is helping it out after that lower high. Needs to hold that support and bounce.

AXP 04/29 Rev HS 49.50 +0.49 49.22 54.45 7.8M 10M 49.88
Current. Still making a higher low and trying to set up for that run at the 200 day SMA again. Not bad.

BAM 05/07 Test 20 35.08 -0.16 35.15 39.95 931K 2M 33.98
Current. Gave another short step lower on light volume Wednesday as it continues its rest at the May high. Not too worried on this one and with the low volume doji again here BAM looks to take a short nap here before resuming higher.

BBD 05/12 Test BO 22.79 -0.21 23.48 27.95 11M 10M 22.39
Buy Not Issued. Doji in the gap lower Wednesday on above average volume. Back at the 18 day EMA and has to hold here to stick around.

BBD 04/30 Asc Bse 22.79 -0.21 23.60 28.21 11M 10M 22.88
Current.

BCSI 05/06 DB hdl 23.72 -1.34 25.42 31.85 792K 1.4M 23.64
Entered today. Low volume for BCSI as it sold back to the 18 day EMA as key support. Jumped in as it sets up what may be a shakeout as it sets up a solid DB hdl base that looks to head uphill soon.

BIDU 05/03 Cup hdl 361.17 -7.23 374.71 424.95 3.5M 11M 361.22
Current. Started with a nice move higher but turned over with the market to close with some modest selling. Back at support from the 10 day EMA here on low volume and watching to see if it can hold support from the 10 day EMA and resume its Cup hdl move higher. If not its not a huge problem given key support from the 18 day EMA just above 350.0.

BIDU 04/12 Cup hdl 361.17 -7.23 289.55 339.00 3.5M 10M 366.75

BMRN 05/07 DB hdl 39.40 +0.03 39.11 46.95 1.5M 2.9M 37.57
Current. Continues laterally along the May high in the upper 30s with a doji in the close flat Wednesday. Just taking a breather this week on below average volume and looking good behind its DB hdl base as it just takes it easy for now.

BRCM 04/30 Test BO 26.96 -0.51 26.43 31.95 12M 23M 26.22
Current. Tried the 200 day SMA and failed again Wednesday. Okay to test back some to the 10 day EMA (26.51) but want to see a higher low here.

CAM 05/08 DB hdl 51.82 -1.34 51.97 61.95 4.8M 4.5M 50.45
Current. All oil was struggling and CAM was typical, i.e. giving back some early strength but still in a breakout. Has some nice above average volume here and looks good to continue the DB hdl move higher again soon after this quick pullback with the market midweek.

CAT 04/24 Test BO 82.75 -1.32 82.57 94.95 6.9M 7.5M 79.77
Buy Not Issued. Doij at the 10 day EMA after some modest selling Wednesday on just above average volume. Consolidating some more along the low 80s and as long as it continues to hold support from the 10 and 18 day EMA here we can't complain too much. Waiting for some volume in a move higher out of this consolidation for the buy still.

CAT 03/18 Rev HS 82.75 -1.32 79.83 89.95 6.9M 11M 83.21
Current.

CE 04/17 DB hdl 47.14 -0.78 43.59 49.95 3.8M 2M 46.08
Target Hit. Took some 12.8% stock, 53% option gain on that surge and then it reversed on high volume. Caution as it tests the 10 day EMA here midweek.

CELG 03/24 Flat 61.00 +0.69 61.26 73.55 3.9M 6M 62.04
Exited. Sold past the 200 day SMA as key support and gave us no choice but to pull the plug.

CHT 04/22 Rev HS 25.44 +0.14 26.60 30.55 541K 3.5M 25.57
Current. Resting some more at the 50 day EMA on low volume. No problem with that as long as it continues to hold here at key support. Looks to head uphill again off the 50 day EMA once trade picks up.

CLF 03/25 PreSplt 183.89 -2.90 121.84 134.95 1.5M 2M 178.89
Current. Light selling Wednesday on average trade as CLF turned over with the market. Quick pullback midweek here before CLF can resume the Tuesday move higher. Not too worried given the drop in volume in the downsides from Wednesday.

CRM 05/01 Test BO 69.40 +1.45 68.82 78.77 3M 2.4M 67.08
Current. Nice upside volume and not a bad day given market reversed. Looking pretty good here as it climbed through the session and near a key point now as it is just under the prior May high in at 70.17.

CRM 04/02 Cup hdl 69.40 +1.45 63.15 72.45 3M 2M 67.11
Current.

CSX 03/27 Test BO 65.41 +0.43 56.62 62.95 4.1M 7.5M 62.89
Current. Doji move higher for some light gains Wednesday. Not much volume in the short step uphill for CSX and watching to see how it reacts here at the prior May highs.

CSX 03/17 DB hdl 65.41 +0.43 53.85 61.45 4.1M 7.5M 62.89
Current.

CTRP 05/10 Test BO 63.33 +0.99 66.11 75.95 1.3M 1.2M 63.89
Buy Not Hit. Nice doji at the 18 day EMA as CTRP hangs around its testing low this week. Doing a good job of holding support and as long as it keeps that up we can't complain. CTRP in pretty decent shape so far in May.

CTRP 04/22 Asc Bse 63.33 +0.99 57.33 66.75 1.3M 1.4M 66.21
Current.

CW 05/13 DB hdl 51.56 +0.79 51.04 58.95 727K 400K 48.55
Buy Not Issued. Surged on more volume but closed well off its high so we held off. Needs to show a strong move higher and hang onto it instead of this midday turnaround action. Will buy there.

CX 05/07 Test 20 28.90 +0.39 28.88 34.95 5.7M 7M 27.89
Buy Not Issued. Looking good even though it fell off its high. Still solid and given the above average volume CX looks good to make another move higher again soon. Watching for the buy on some continued positive action.

CY 04/15 DB hdl 29.52 +0.95 28.04 34.98 7.7M 8.5M 27.44
Current. Coming to life as CY gapped and climbed through Wednesday. Came back a bit off its intraday high as the market turned over intraday, but CY still managing some decent gains in the session. Nice, rising above average volume as well.

DRYS 04/26 DB hdl 99.04 +0.84 86.45 104.95 5.5M 6M 93.42
Target Hit. Was moving well but reversed on high volume showing a tombstone doji. May be overdone near term but a great upside trend. 16.45% stock, 64% option gain taken on the move Wednesday.

EQIX 05/03 Cup hdl 88.29 -0.02 90.32 109.95 423K 1.9M 88.32
Buy Not Issued. Resting some more at the 10 day EMA at the hdl in its Cup hdl base. Still just waiting to see some upsides on volume to complete the Cup hdl base and give us the buy.

ESRX 04/17 Rev HS 72.90 +0.41 69.30 79.95 2.5M 4.7M 71.55
Current. Doji gap higher for some light gains Wednesday as ESRX continues its Rev HS move uphill. Struggled against the market turnover Wednesday but managed some minor upsides at least and with rising, below average volume here ESRX looks good to continue higher from here.

EXM 05/12 DB hdl 50.66 -1.44 51.33 74.95 2.6M 1.5M 47.74
Current. Light selling Wednesday after EXM turned over intraday with the market. Watching to see if it continues lower from here on the high volume to test the DB hdl high.

FLIR 05/06 DB hdl 34.39 +0.42 34.32 42.45 726K 1.8M 32.69
Buy Not Issued. Doji at the 10 day EMA for FLIR Wednesday as it holds support with fading, below average volume. Has a nice DB hdl base here and just needs to show us some strong upsides on higher trade to give us the buy.

GD 05/08 PreAnn 93.24 +0.33 91.88 103.95 2.2M 2.9M 89.77
Buy Not Issued. Tombstone doji on volume so held off and will see if tests just a bit for a better entry. Has some decent above average volume here but the tombstone let us know it may head into a test from here.

GNK 05/10 Test BO 80.17 -0.82 77.85 92.95 1.6M 1M 76.31
Current. Modest selling Wednesday for GNK. High volume as well and watching closely to see if it comes back to test here at the Asc bse high. In a solid uptrend along the 10 day EMA since late March.

GNK 04/21 Rev HS 80.17 -0.82 68.36 79.95 1.6M 1M 79.21
Current.

Current. Still at the 10 day EMA on some support here with light volume. Taking it easy for now until stronger trade can pick it up and take it higher.

Current.

IVGN 05/08 PreSplt 93.22 +0.96 94.44 105.95 373K 1.1M 92.32
Buy Not Hit. Hanging around the 18 day EMA some more here in May on light volume. Doing a good job of holding support and just waiting for some solid upside movement to give us the buy. Isn't going anywhere until it gets some volume however.

JASO 05/13 Cup hdl 24.17 +0.47 25.42 30.38 17M 10M 22.65
Entered today. Surged through the session but then was caught in the late downdraft with the market to close flat. However, still a decent start to a move uphill in the Cup hdl nonetheless and expecting some more upsides soon in this base move higher.

JEC 05/13 PreAnn 94.03 +0.09 94.24 108.45 1.6M 1.8M 88.89

NSC 05/06 Test BO 63.79 -0.63 63.40 72.75 3.5M 3.6M 61.78
Current. Started uphill initially but turned over with the market to post some moderate selling on below average volume. No serious damage done here and given the pullback in trade NSC looks to make a quick test here before resuming its Asc bse move higher.

NTES 05/08 Test BO 24.41 -0.02 23.55 29.31 1.6M 1.5M 23.32
Current. Started out Wednesday with strong move higher into the mid 20s but came back intraday to close with a doji move laterally. Above average volume here for NTES and in good shape still, just watching this midday turnaround closely from here to see if it brings NTES back for a test.

NUE 03/19 Test 18 79.99 -1.40 72.16 81.95 3.5M 8M 78.32
Target Hit. 11.5% stock, 38% option gain taken on NUE Wednesday with its low volume selling back to 79.9. Still in decent shape as it consolidates in the upper 70s/low 80s at the Dbl btm high.

OTEX 04/05 PreAnn 37.05 +0.03 35.31 41.95 496K 1M 36.92
Current. Doji at the 10 day EMA as OTEX took a breather Wednesday on below average volume. Slowly works its way uphill again off the 18 day EMA from last week's testing low. Not in bad shape really.

Current. Sold back to the 10 day EMA in low volume as PSEM just ran with the market turnaround Wednesday. No problem here as it looks to resume the Cup hdl base higher again soon after this low volume pullback to support.

PX 04/16 Cup hdl 95.97 +0.64 92.35 103.75 2.4M 3M 93.31
Current. Tapped the 10 day EMA intraday back near 94.0 as PX gave a doji move higher on above average volume. Not bad, just has to show us it has the strength to continue higher past the late April high at this area.

RIG 05/03 PreAnn 147.20 -1.83 154.38 175.75 7.7M 7M 153.78

Buy Not Issued. Huge volume Wednesday as SVNT gave surged through the ceiling intraday but came back with the market turnover to close flat.

UNP 04/24 PreAnn 149.95 +0.89 140.15 159.95 1.8M 3.2M 144.94
Current. Doji in the short step higher on fading below average volume Wednesday with UNP in a solid Asc bse move into the 150s this week.

UTHR 05/03 Rev HS 93.42 +0.51 92.33 105.95 476K 850K 89.88
Current. Quiet step higher on rising, below average volume for UTHR as it starts to pick up the pace again in its Rev HS move higher here. In good shape behind a solid base.

V 05/13 Test 18 82.23 -0.15 84.08 99.75 13M 25M 79.75
Entered today. Nice surge then it faded with the market late. Still a good test, just not the surge it looked to be. Nonetheless a good start higher here looking to lead Visa higher out of this quick pullback to the 18 day EMA through May.

VMI 04/26 Test BO 109.37 -2.36 102.60 120.95 245K 572K 106.11
Current. Modest selling Wednesday on below average volume with VMI still decent shape as it held onto about half of the gains from the Monday and Tuesday moves uphill. No huge concerns here with key support from the 10 day EMA and mid April high at 105ish.

WFT 05/03 PreAnn 84.40 -2.69 83.42 99.95 4.8M 6M 83.55
Current. A bit more selling volume as it gapped higher then reversed. Held the 10 day EMA so not panicking but watching this higher volume intraday fade.

XRAY 05/12 DB hdl 41.61 +0.54 41.48 47.95 1.1M 1.6M 40.22
Buy Not Issued. Nice move higher against the market turnover Wednesday as XRAY posted some decent upsides on just below average volume. Running higher in a solid DB hdl base and just needs to pick up some stronger volume for the buy as it climbs through the low 40s.

YUM 04/23 Rev HS 40.89 -0.05 41.27 47.65 3.6M 4.5M 39.93
Current. Light selling Wednesday but YUM doing a good job of recovering the downsides intraday to close flat. On below average volume here as it holds at the late April, early May highs and in good shape still. Just need to see it make a strong move higher out of this consolidation on its next attempt uphill.
