VVUS....many breakouts make VVUS look like a compelling play here, 10 20, 50 day moving average breakouts, stochastic, Wilder breakouts. My price target is 17 which I hope will be around day earnings come out.

Good plays for Wednesday were:CTAP*, ESV,AFCI,EMC,SAVLY**,DGII,CTEC,

*CTAP virtually fell into my lap with a before the morning bell earnings upgrade...

Tip for buying a stock at market open
It's best NOT to buy at the open usually, but when you've watched and followed a company as long as I have CTAP, you develop a feel for how an upgrade/new contract will affect it. Best bet for buy at market open is NOT the option but the stock whenever you can. The option will not trade sometimes for 10 minutes and more and you miss the entire play. I sold because it was too expensive to hold until earnings but I know it's got more steam. I might buy the options tomorrow or Friday.

**SAVLY gapped up but was good for another should have gotten in yesterday but my quotes were erratic all day..

MTIC was sold at 1 point loss.
