Special Watch List: Given that tomorrow will be both a short day, less trading volume, and more volatile, and one of the best days to go long due to the PreHoliday effect, I revisited my lists. I looked at all the movers and shakers in the internet sector and screened for those which had the following: 1. history or huge moves intraday 2. extreme volatility and highs on the day after Thanksgiving (ONSL went from 60 to 100 that day) 3. Generally between $5 and $35 4. Preceding volume (for at least the last two days) That screen generated the following tickers: SYMBOL CLOSE CHANGE CHANGE % ABOV 25.75 8.875 52.59% ALIF 12.375 4.975 67.23% AMEN 11.75 0.375 3.30% CDNW 26.25 5.5 26.51% CIEN 14.375 1.5 11.65% CNCX 36.5 1.625 4.66% COOL 33.125 -4.125 -11.07% GEEK 31 16.25 110.17% GMAI 13.313 0.625 4.93% GNET 39.5 3.125 8.59% IMAL 22.375 -6.125 -21.49% KTEL 13.063 0.00% MZON 56 44.562 389.60% NAVR 10.875 1.437 15.23% NETG 17.5 0.125 0.72% NTKI 18.25 3 19.67% PSFT 19.625 1.25 6.80% PWAV 19.063 0.063 0.33% SHRP 15.25 2.375 18.45% SPLN 17.063 1.063 6.64% TALK 13.688 2.875 26.59% ZAP 14.25 7.062 98.25% ZD 15.875 2.625 19.81% I then made a second screen for those with the greatest difference between today's close and the recent high (6 months): SYMBOL CLOSE HIGH LOW DELTA CIEN 14.375 92.375 8.125 78.00 ONSL 63.5 108 10.625 44.50 CATP 22.375 58.375 13.375 36.00 CAIB 32.5 65.125 28.875 32.63 PSFT 19.625 52.125 16.5 32.50 PIXR 36.313 66 27.5 29.69 DCLK 48.25 77.125 13.5 28.88 AMEN 11.75 40 1.875 28.25 KTEL 13.063 39.125 5 26.06 SPLN 17.063 38.875 6.375 21.81 SAP 38.875 60 29.688 21.13 NAVR 10.875 27 2.188 16.13 NETG 17.5 32.5 6.313 15.00 IDTC 15.438 30.125 11.875 14.69 BKS 34.438 48 22.187 13.56 MSPG 66 79 23.125 13.00 CDNW 26.25 39.25 7 13.00 COOL 33.125 45.5 5.938 12.38 GNET 39.5 51.75 12.813 12.25 ZAP 14.25 25.938 6.125 11.69 IMAL 22.375 32.75 5.5 10.38 PAGE 4.438 14.625 3.563 10.19 Many are duplicates of the first list. These will be the stocks I will watch and play tomorrow. I will use a little more restraint on entry, as I don't want to miss a mover although I will be longon something by 10:30, and will post them. BTW, Talk is up due to short sellers being squeezed according to the information I have. For anyone not around tomorrow, please have a safe holiday. My best wishes for all of you and your fmailies and loved ones. lastshadow
