2) Stock Splits Playing stock splits can be very profitable, but it takes know-how. Our stock split service focuses on three main types of plays: 1) pre-announcement (where we forecast an upcoming split prior to the company making the announcement); 2) pre-split (these plays are made in the days leading up to the actual split day); and 3) post-split plays (plays made after the actual stock split where the stock is showing continued or renewed strength). For post-splits, we can play them as we would pre-splits (very short term), but we prefer to stretch our horizons, playing the trend. When playing options, we look further out, 2 or more months at least. We let the trend carry us along if there is one, but we will also take profits if the technical pattern degenerates, e.g., breaks a trendline. The main difference between post-splits and pre-splits plays is that we really have to like the pattern. Pre-splits can run right before their splits even with poor technical indicators. For post-splits, we are looking at the stocks from more of a longer term “would I buy this stock at this juncture?” position. Now there are times when a hot stock splits and investors pile in to get in while the stock is ‘cheaper.’ We play those, but with more of a short-term, pre-splits mentality in that we will be ready to get out fast if the momentum fades. Remember, everything we do has to pass muster with the market that day … don’t fight the market on these plays. Here’s a post-split play to watch and our current analysis.http://www.investmenthouse.com/1stocksplits1.htm” target=”_top”>http://www.investmenthouse.com/images2/cnbc.gif” width=”39″ height=”31″ border=”0″ alt=”CNBC Interview”>

MRVL”>
MRVL (Marvell Technology–$30.80; +2.33; optionable): Semiconductor integrated circuits.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/m/mrvl.html”>Company Profile
STATUS: Flat base breakout. Taking another look at MRVL. Friday volume surged as MRVL started the breakout from a 6 week flat base that formed using the 50 day EMA (27.36) as support. This short base follows a 12 week cup with handle breakout. This base on base action works out all of the sellers, clearing the way for a strong move higher. Solid 3 to 1 accumulation in the current base and excellent 4 to 0 accumulation in the prior base; obviously a lot of buyers and few sellers. Excellent money flow is running higher, and it looks as if MRVL is ready to follow it. May test back toward 30 before continuing, but we are looking at starting positions on a further move higher from here on solid trade.
Volume: 9.254M Avg Volume: 5.163M
BUY POINT: $30.88 Volume=6M Target=$36.55 Stop=$29.78
POSITION: UVM BF – Feb. $30c (63 delta) &/or Stock.

3) Technical Playhttp://investmenthouse.com/quote/stkquote.php3?smbl=
ALVR”>
ALVR (Alvarion–$15.39; +0.53; optionable): Telecom equipment.
http://biz.yahoo.com/p/a/alvr.html”>Company Profile
STATUS: Double bottom w/handle. Volume exploded Friday as ALVR started toward the breakout move from its 8.5 month base. It hit 16 on the high and backed off to close, but it is definitely getting ready for a move. Accumulation in the base is a solid 9 to 6 (9 up price weeks on rising volume to 6 down weeks on rising volume), showing net buyers in the base and setting up the breakout. Ready to make the breakout move.
Volume: 4.59M Avg Volume: 890.776K
BUY POINT: $15.72 Volume=750K Target=$18.85 Stop=$14.62
POSITION: QBY CC – Mar. $15c (56 delta) &/or Stock.
