Blue Horseshoe Stocks: NSCT Exclusive CEO Interview

Cloud Medical Doctor Software Corp. NSCT

We’ll start things off this morning by turning our attention back to NSCT; we brought it into the fold for the first time this week as a longer-term play. The chart appeared to have to some ripening to do, as it searched for a bottom and yesterday’s session appears to have brought one. The came down to bounce off of the .0522-mark, and subsequently closed at its high-of-day .0648, a 24% intraday move.

In addition to seeing some early success on the NSCT chart this week, we had the honor of conducting an exclusive interview with the company’s CEO, Mr. Michael DeLaGarza via our sister site, Stock Traders Talk. It covers quite a bit, so we suggest you visit the site, or click the following graphic to bring up the interview straight away: 

HENDERSON, Nev., July 24, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via PRWEB – The interview will be held on July 24, 2014 at 9:00 am EDT, An archived recorded version can be found on the homepage of Stock Traders Talk at http://www.stocktraderstalk.com, following the interview.

Intuitive Surgical, Inc. ISRG

Our call of ISRG yesterday morning couldn’t have been much better, with the stock putting forth a heck of a performance in the ensuing session. It traded in a range from 438.55 – 463.39 on the day, and as a result, anyone who was entertaining options calls as we pointed out had the chance to make substantial gains.

The landmark session came on the heels of two morning PR’s that you may want to click through to, below:

Facebook, Inc. FB Options

Another great call of ours this week was the FB Calls that we brought to the table first thing Monday morning, stating: “We’ll be looking to capitalize on the volatility that comes with rising anticipation of earnings, due for release on Wednesday.”, and noting that we’ve used this scenario to our advantage in the past.

Wednesday came and went, earnings exceeded expectations, and our FB Calls offered up big gains just as we surmised. The stock traded in a daily range from 69.61 – 71.33, and this morning in premarket trading, has reached as high as 78.44.

To adjust our strategy on FB options, we’ll be monitoring the $75-77 Calls as we head into week’s end.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Trading Ideas

Intuitive Surgical, Inc. ISRG

When we first tagged ISRG back on May 6th, the stock was just making its way down to its 3-year low, which came a couple of sessions later at 346.46. From that point, we saw a powerful uptrend that carried the stock back up to 426.43 (Jun 27th). It allowed us to play the options chain quite effectively over the course of several weeks.

Following that major run, we’ve seen some consolidation, coming back to the $380-level just recently, and currently, the stock is pressing new highs in premarket trading, to the tune of $444.

We did mention a long-term interest in the Aug.-Oct. $420-440 Calls back in June, and that insight is now paying off bigtime.

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. PBR -Options

When we looked in on PBR on Monday, we were patting ourselves on the back for some excellent picks of last week’s $16.50 and $17 Weekly Calls, mentioning that we’d stick with the same ideas to begin this week.

It has turned out to be another great call on our part; just look at the action in those weekly calls during yesterday’s session:

The 16.50’s ran from .25 to 1.07, a possible intraweek gain of up to 328% while the $17 Calls surged from .13 up to .75, a 477% move. This was just one of many, many times that we’ve used the PBR options chain to our extreme advantage this year.

New Options-Trading Ideas

As our regulars have undoubtedly noticed, a good portion of our focus these days goes to options trading. We’ve become quite adept at spotting trends and using them to our benefit, and we’ve got a couple of new potential plays to add to the mix this morning.

Alcoa, Inc. AA

Alcoa has been building one beast of a chart over the past few months, and there looks to be no end in sight. We may be able to use this strong uptrend to leverage ourselves some nice gains out of AA Options. Specifically, the 08/16 $17 Calls, which closed at .44 yesterday after having traded in a range from .25-.48 on the day.

Yum! Brands, Inc. YUM

YUM got beat up recently, falling off a cliff at the $83-area, and yesterday was the first session since that the stock has found some support, down around $74. Our options idea here is to potentially utilize the rebound for some quick-strike gains. We’ll be monitoring the 08/08 $75 Calls, which closed at .82 yesterday.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: New Pick Today – NSCT

Cloud Medical Doctor Software Corp. NSCT

Good morning, traders! Today’s new interest has shown a recent ability to make rapid moves, and has an interesting back story as well.

NSCT (Cloud+MD) provides fully-compliant, totally secure cloud-based practice management, revenue & patient profile management, and billing solutions to the healthcare industry.

The company’s services are completely integrated and delivered via the internet and require no special client-side equipment apart from standard connections and internet-capable devices. The diagram below gives us a rough idea of how the system works:

Thanks to NSCT‘s CipherShop division and accompanying CipherLock (TM) security technology, the company’s software suites are fully protected by an advanced ‘Polymorphic Cipher Engine’ that is virtually uncrackable.

It’s with CipherLock that NSCT has the ability to branch away from the medical services sector, and into the wide world of all business; government, educational, communications, transportation, etc.  In the computer age, attention to digital security is vital no matter what the arena or application. In fact, the CipherLock Division recently signed a contract worth more than $1.1M, the link to which you can find in the news section below.

With the company’s patented CR technology, a potential hacker would need to decode and analyze a gigabyte of data (that’s a lot) every ten seconds to breach the system. In short, a virtually impossible task, and very impressive at that.

NSCT CHART:

NSCT is searching out a bottom; as you can see on the chart it is currently under consolidation. Over the next few weeks, we’ll be tracking closely and watching for indicators to ripen. There has been recent support in the .05-.06 range, and provided that holds, we could be looking to test previous highs up to .09. From here, a return to those levels would mean potential gains in excess of 50%  It’s possible that today’s news could give the stock a push in the right direction.

New PR out this morning on NSCT:

LAS VEGAS, July 22, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via PRWEB – Cloud Medical Doctor Software Corporation (Cloud-MDs) (NSCT), a leading provider of “Cloud Based” Medical Practice Business Operations solutions and Billing Services for the Healthcare Industry and a provider of Digital Cyber Security solutions for all industries announced today that its soon-to-be-released Cloud+MD Office 2.0 will soon receive industry MU2 certification. >> FULL PR
