Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Update on AAPL & Extended Watchlist

Apple, Inc. AAPL – Options

On Friday, our morning report contained a blurb in which we stated we’d be “hot on the trail of potential gains in the Apple options chain”, and we certainly hope folks got in on some of the action that ensued. We have been following AAPL quite heavily since our report on Wed. the 14th, wherein we commented on the Apple-Beats buyout rumor.

AAPL stock tore out of the gate, bulling its way up all day to more than $614 just prior to the close. As a result, the options contracts we were following in the $605-610 range steadily ramped up in price over the course of the session.

As you can see on the graphic below, some truly notable gains were possible for anyone trading these contracts. The daily ranges on these things were quite impressive:

$605 Calls – Day’s Range: 2.15-9.76 – Max Gain: 354%

$607 Calls – Day’s Range: .83-7.13 – Max Gain: 759%

$610 Calls – Day’s Range: .25-4.70 – Max Gain: 1780%

It really wouldn’t have mattered which Calls you were into on Friday- traders literally could have thrown a dart at a board filled with contracts and come up with a winner!

AAPL continued to press upward this morning, as the stock has traded as high as the 618.90’s in pre-market activities. Now that it has broken well above the previous resistance point of $607.33, that’s the level we’d like to see hold as support in the event of any pullbacks.

Other stocks that had significant gains in the options calls from last week that we want to continue to monitor this week include: DDD, TSLA, GOGO, DDD & FEYE



Side Note:

Triton Distribution Systems, Inc. TTDZ now trading as:
Green Cures & Botanical Distribution Inc. GRCU

TTDZ, a stock that has given us many chances to profit in 2014, finally underwent the name and symbol change that we had been anticipating, becoming GRCU.

If you recall, this play was one of the largest runners we encountered during the “green rush” earlier this year. We caught it at a low of .0012 on January 30th, and subsequently rode it to a high of .049 in early April. For anyone without a calculator handy, that equates to a staggering move of 3983% in just over two months time! It’s hard not to call that one of our biggest successes of the year so far.

The company has also gone live with a new website that you can find @ http://gcbdinc.com/

We’re going to begin monitoring this, and other marijuana related plays more heavily in coming weeks. As many of you will remember, we’re anxiously awaiting the start of legal sales in Washington State, presently slated for mid-July. It could very well provide the cannabis sector with another swell of interest and buying, much like the beginning of sales in Colorado did back in January, which of course sparked one of the most monumental sector surges the penny markets have ever seen.
