First off, hours? If you do this often, you might consider subscribing to a service of some sort where you can find stocks a little more quickly.

The criteria you're using has some similarities to the CANSLIM method that investors.com uses. They offer a free two week trial with a subscription to Investors Business daily. You can see more about the method on their site.

Investools.com also has many great screening tools to help.

That said, on with the show.

UCTT - as you said, fundamentally pretty decent. Great earnings growth and rated 3.25 on a 4.0 scale overall, which is very good. Technically, it's just crossing over it's moving average right now and looks to be headed at least to 17. I'd have my stop placed just below 14, so not a bad reward/risk ratio.

VDSI - an even stronger stock than the first one. 3.50 rating of 4.0 also in the semi industry which recently has had some cash flow into it. Technically, also better than the first one, very strong uptrend. Just bouncing off of its moving average, I'd say it's a go under my rules. :-) 22.52 with a stop around 21.48ish, it'll probably go to about 26.50 before pulling back next, if I had to guess. (What a year it's had!)

(just remember, you trade what actually happens, not what you'd like to happen)

EML - a little stronger industy group, and the stock has almost reached its prestock price in just eight months. Bummer it's not optionable. I couldn't find as good estimates on their financials as on the others, but the stock is still rated very strong. Technically, I like VDSI more, but this one still looks ok. 30 looks to be good support for now, so for a little over a dollar of risk, you've got some good upside potential as long as you remember to move your stop up as the stock moves.

Hope that helps!
