VanceInfo Technology (VIT) – still trading close to it’s buy point, gained 6.67% – way too extended to buy and too early to lock in profits.  Going to sit on this one for a bit longer.  I still hold 22 shares long.

* Industrial Services of America (IDSA) – It’s the first time this ticker has caught my eye. They provide “waste and recycling management services to commercial, industrial and logistic customers nationwide” .  Just finished a HUGE cup a few weeks ago and just broke out of a very short cup formed over the past three weeks.  The buy point would be 20.38 and it’s trading just 8 cents over that.

* Steve Madden (SHOO) – Just had a 3:2 split today and are announcing earnings tomorrow.  Keep an eye out for a new base to form.

Coinstar (CTSR) – had a crazy breakout and still going strong….  Way too extended..  Going to watch for a new base, but no slowing in sight yet.

Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (GMCR) – watch for it to hold support around 72 and form a new base.  I wouldn’t doubt that it retraces itself back to it’s recent 52-week highs near 100. UPDATED 5/4/2010: As pointed out by Mike P in the comments below, this is a broken stock.  The fundamentals have changed since the last time I looked and I am removing GMCR from the list.

These stocks are holding gains and are staying in my watch:

BCSI, CTSH, EZPW, DBRN, NUS, WBMD, VMW, WCRX, ULTA, MED, PCLN, ATHR

Cognizant Technology (CTSH) - Buy point reset to 54.45 after it broke the buy point last week but closed below it.

Coinstar (CSTR) - Still in buy range up to 37.91

EZCorp (EZPW) – Still in buy range up to 23.41

Vanceinfo Technology (VIT) – Still holding shares long. It’s getting close to it’s maximum buy point of 25.04 after it’s breakout last week.

Dress Barn (DBRN) - Just dipped a few cents back below it’s max buy point threshold of 28.75.

Nu skin (NUS) – Still going strong after it’s breakout last week.  Close to max buy point of 31.85

WebMD (WBMD) – Cleared a 3 weeks tight pattern 2 weeks ago and going strong.  Still a bit below it’s max buy point of 48.96.

VMWare (VMW) - too extended past it’s 55.09 buy point, but watching for a new base to form.

*Warner Chilcott (WCRX) – New on the watchlist, it’s forming a double bottom with a buy point of 28.49.

*Green Mountain Roasters (GMCR) – This guy just pulled back into it’s buy zone.  It held up at it’s previous support level and still looks strong.  I’m going to watch for it to form a new base here before I buy.

*Ulta Salon, Cosmetics & Fragrance (ULTA) - It pulled back into it’s buy zone after breaking out of a cup base 6 weeks ago.  Max buy point is 22.81.
