Sean,
My work shows the following on your picks:
DYN and CIEN are showing signs of retracing. DYN gave a sell signal today
with pivot dates of 7/7 and 7/15. Maybe your buy stop will be ok but be
careful. CIEN  & LNCR have a high pivot forecast for 7/9 and 7/18-19.
MXIM, NOVL & EXTR all have pivot dates of 7/12 so I would be in for a short
run only.
