Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MZEI, SPY Recaps & More

Medizone International, Inc. MZEI

Continuing our recent good fortune with selecting stocks ripe for a rebound off of their 52-week lows, we listed MZEI as a point of interest in yesterday’s premarket report.

We want to quote what we said verbatim, as the stock’s performance so closely coincided with our expectations. We stated: “MZEI fell off a cliff yesterday…We’re going to slate this stock as a potential recovery play- support prior to that epic beating was in the .07-08 range, so we’ll be on the lookout for a rebound back to that region of the chart.”

As the session commenced, MZEI gapped up just past that .07-mark to .07225, and proceeded to run promptly to a daily high of .09, a 25% intraday move, and held a good portion of those gains into an eight-cent close. We’ll keep this one on our radars to watch for the possibility of a sustained rebound.

ETF Options Recap

Both of our options-trading ideas for ETFs worked out nicely yesterday:

Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bull 3X Shares (NUGT) – Our idea of tracking the NUGT Sept. 4th $5 Calls yesterday provided a significant chance for traders to make a double-bagger, as they rose from .27 to a high of .55, marking a total possible profit of 104%

*Side Note* We spotted abnormal volume in the NUGT 09/18 $5-7 Calls during yesterday’s session, so we’ll tag those for observation in coming weeks. NUGT is dipping back in the premarket today, which could provide us with a good buying opportunity.

SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) – We flagged SPY Weekly $206 Calls in our extended watchlist yesterday, and were instantaneously rewarded. Those contracts ran hard, jumping from a low of 1.08 all the way up to 3.24. That was good for a nice, round, 200% jump on the day, so congrats to any of our readers who took advantage of the heads up!

Eleven Biotherapeutics, Inc. EBIO

We also want to observe activity in EBIO as we head into week’s end. On Wednesday, they provided an update on one of their clinical trials, and this morning they’ve got an earnings drop (Links Below), leading to another premarket gap-up. We’ve pointed out the key aspects on the following chart snapshot, including the fact that an normous gap exists, the fillinf of which could mean significant added gains.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MIXX Update, New Ideas

Mix 1 Life, Inc. MIXX

Amidst a rough week for the markets, a stock that we were tracking beginning on Monday August 3rd. We caught it as a bottom-play with the stock looking extremely oversold, just having recorded new 52-week lows, and it has enjoyed a heck of a recovery since then as we suggested it might.

Our observed low on this play from last Monday was .95, and as of yesterday’s high at 3.64, we’ve officially witnessed an increase of 283% in a span of just seven sessions.

Volume has tapered off a bit, but we’re still going to want to keep MIXX on our running watchlist. While its recovery thus far has been impressive, the PPS is still just a fraction of what it was as recently as 6 weeks ago, when it was trading in the $5-range. Ideally, we’d like to see support hold at or above 3.20 on any pullbacks in order for us to remain interested.

Possible Bottom-Play

Medizone International, Inc. MZEI – Catching our eye on this relatively quiet morning is another stock that has just logged new annual lows. MZEI fell off a cliff yesterday, tumbling from .095 to just over a nickel. We’re going to slate this stock as a potential recovery play; support prior to that epic beating was in the .07-08 range, so we’ll be on the lookout for a rebound back to that region of the chart.

Possible Options Play

Direxion Daily Gold Miners Index Bull 3X Shares (NUGT) – This ETF has an options chain which is where we will look for trading opportunities, specifically in the NUGT Sept. 4th $5 Calls. Gold prices have enjoyed a steady climb for the past week; charts saw a reversal last Wednesday, and provided we witness a continuation of this precious metal’s rally, there could be some nice moves in those calls.

Extended Watchlist:
DSUS, CRGP, PPHM, SPY(Weekly $206 Calls)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: FCEL, AQXP Recaps & More

Aquanox Pharmaceuticals, Inc. AQXP

AQXP was among the stocks that we presented in yesterday’s premarket report, as we were catching it a couple of days after some really positive developments were announced by the company. Despite already being up significantly at that point, our instincts to include it in our daily interests proved to be well-founded.

The stock made a monstrous move right out of the starting gate from 17.56-55.75, a walloping 217% initial rip, followed by an extreme pullback. The activity in AQXP was so abnormally volatile that trading was temporarily halted. AQXP stock is presently gapping up in premarket trading as high as 38.74 so far this morning.

Familiar Bottom-Bouncers

Yesterday was an interesting session in that we noticed an unusually high number of stocks with which we are very familiar, making some excellent moves off of their recently-attained low-points.

FuelCell Energy, Inc. FCEL – FCEL had been on a continuous backslide for many weeks. The company released a positive PR (Link Below) and things took off from there, as you can see on the included chart. We’ll be looking for the stock to maintain at least half of the advance it made yesterday on any pullbacks.

___

Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. INO

INO also had a big day generated by a PR. The company entered into a partnership with AstraZeneca to provide its cancer treatment in a deal that could reportedly bring as much as $700M in revenue INO’s way. (>>>Get More Details). We are well-acquainted with this stock, having last mentioned it just a couple of weeks ago. We’ll be keen to track the ensuing activity after yesterday’s major revelation, and roughly 30% increase on the day.

___

Other stocks that we routinely discuss that also made appreciable moves off of relative lows yesterday were Voltari Corp. VLTC, Dominovas Energy Corp. DNRG, and Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. ASTI. Those familiar bottom-bouncers were joined by New Source Energy Partners. NSLP, a newcomer to our reports. We’ll be watching the whole lot as the week progresses. Continued gains, as well as possible dip-and-rip scenarios could be in the cards for any and/or all of them!

Fresh Options Ideas

We’ve got a nice selection of new options-trading possibilities to enter into the mix today:

Shake Shack, Inc. SHAK –  Shake Shack beat on earnings  yesterday and is gapping up in the premarket today. As a result we are going to be taking a look at Weekly $72-76 Calls for potential chances at intraday/intraweek flips.

Apple, Inc. AAPL –  We’ve had a lot of success with AAPL Options in both the distant and recent past, and a new, longer-term idea to monitor in coming weeks is going to be the Sept. 18th $120-122 Calls.

Twitter, Inc. TWTR – For a prospective idea in the TWTR chain, we’ll stretch our target period out to that same Sept. 18th expiration, and track the 9/18 TWTR $30-32 Calls.
