1) MARKET SUMMARY
         > >From "The Daily" by Jon Johnson at InvestmentHouse.com


You could hear the excitement in the final few seconds of Friday trade.

- SP500, NASDAQ start breaking to new highs, but despite the excitement on the Friday close, the breaks higher are still nominal and on no volume.
- Lots of earnings, lots of movement, little upside advancement by the major indices.
- SOX remains the market key, and it shows some cracks.
- GDP Q1 surprises big upside. Sure it can be explained away, but with lower prices and inflation, Powell's comments about cutting rates could be put to the test.
- Huge week of data, FOMC decisions, and more and more big name earnings.
- Struggle at the old highs after 5 weeks upside and lots of better than expected earnings suggests the market may be a bit winded near term.


Market Summary (continued)
You could hear the excitement in the final few seconds of Friday trade. The British CNBC anchor gave the play by play as to whether NASDAQ and SP500 would post new highs. NASDAQ looked to be a done deal but SP500 was going down to the wire. Then, yes, a new NASDAQ AND SP500 high exclaimed the usually reserved Brit.

SP500 13.71, 0.47%
NASDAQ 27.72, 0.34%
DJ30 81.25 0.31%
SP400 0.96%
RUTX 1.03%
SOX -0.83%
NASDAQ 100 0.12%

VOLUME: NYSE -4%, NASDAQ -4%. Volume remained well below average as SP500 and NASDAQ pushed at new highs. Just not a lot of volume as NASDAQ and SP500 attempt new highs, and that is typically an indication the move will at least have a harder time making it happen.

ADVANCE/DECLINE: NYSE 2.1:1, NASDAQ 2.1:1. Not bad breadth, but that was thanks to the small and midcaps coming back around after a weak Thursday. Perhaps with the GDP they will try to exert some leadership in the coming week as well.

Yes, new highs for certain. By a fraction. Actually, SP500 failed to take out the all-time high just a point or so higher though it was a new closing high. NASDAQ put in a new closing high and topped the prior intraday highs from 2018, though it closed below Thursday's high hit on that day's opening gap higher.

Another upside week, now five weeks on this rally leg as SP500 and NASDAQ bump highs. Time to take some upside gain and we also played some downside.

CMG (Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc.)
Company Profile
Entered a downside position Wednesday right before the close with May $705.00 put options at $28.30. Of course CMG announced decent results but after such a run higher it was primed to give some back. CMG sold down to the 50 day MA's on the Thursday open and we sold the options for $44.70, banking almost 58% within about a half hour in the market.

STLD (Steel Dynamics, Inc.)
Company Profile
Another downside play, this one showing a negative pattern versus just being overbought as with CMG. STLD broke lower then failed to get back over the 50 day MA on the rebound to test. We entered the position with some May $35.00 put options at $2.10. STLD bounced up and down but kept trending lower below the 10 day EMA, then last week selling harder. Touched the target Thursday and we sold the options for $3.25, banking 54%.

Lots of upside as well.

FB (Facebook, Inc.)
Company Profile
Of course with the earnings announcement and gap higher the option volatility was pumped a bit. We had positions entered March 5 and April 9. Solid moves into earnings then the big gap. We banked our June options with 140%ish gains on each.

GOOG (Alphabet, Inc.)
Company Profile
Jumped on the FB earnings excitement and we banked part of the option gain on the $1198 and $1172 positions entered 3/19 and 3/11, respectively. Nice 90% and 50% gains.

LRCX (Lam Research Corporation)
Company Profile
Nice gap higher Thursday and we used that to bank half the 12+% stock and 145% option gain.

ODFL (Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc.)
Company Profile
Entered 4/1 with some July $150.00 calls for $8.75 and stock at $149.15. ODFL, a trucking company, put in a steady haul from entry to last Thursday. It gapped higher and rallied Thursday, hit our target, and we sold the stock for $158.49 (6.2%) and the options for $14.00 (60%).

Here's a leader play and our current analysis.

COUP (Coupa Software--$102.04; +4.20; optionable): Software
Company Profile
EARNINGS: 06/10/2019
STATUS: COUP is in the process of a breakout from a 3 month flat base formed the past 8 weeks along the 50 day MA. COUP made us money in its runs up to this base, and it did a particularly good job of holding up during the 3 month software stock consolidation of those prior 2018 gains. After a last test of the 50 day MA last week, COUP rallied and Friday showed a breakout on strong volume. It may want to come back and test a bit to start the week, often the case after a strong move through the close of a week. If so, we look to pick it up off a test that likely holds around 100. All the better if it does, but if not, if it continues higher from Friday, we want to go ahead and start some positions. A move to the initial target gains 11+% on the stock, 75%ish on the options.

3) IH ALERTS

DNKN (Dunkin Brands--$75.40; +0.71; optionable)
Company Profile
EARNINGS: 05/02/2019 before the open
STATUS: DNKN is kind of toppy of late, having rallied to the August/September 2018 highs and showing a short head and shoulders topping action the past 5 weeks. Earnings are not far off and with this pattern DNKN is setting itself up for a test to the downside if earnings are not solid, or frankly even if they are. Thus, we are looking to move into some put options ahead of the earnings results to play a move toward the 200 day SMA. That move gains 55%ish on the put options.
CHART VIDEO
Volume: 407.49K Avg Volume: 576.16K
BUY POINT: $74.77 Volume=650K Target=$71.71 Stop=$75.77
POSITION: DNKN JUN 21 2018 75.00 P - (-49 delta)
