Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options, Bottom Bouncer & More

Galectin Therapeutics, Inc. GALT

This morning we’re taking a look back at GALT, which we highlighted as a ripening play that we felt was worthy of observation last month.

Our suspicion that the chart had growth in store turned out to be correct. Since we put this play on our radar it has gone on to trade in a solid range from .935 to 1.29, which works out to an increase of 38%

We feel these gains are sustainable if GALT can manage to crack past the current 200DMA at 1.32. As you can see on the included snapshot, the chart continues to bear the look of potential for even further increases, so we’ll stay on the lookout for that.


Whole Foods Market, Inc. WFM

WFM is showing some nice volatility and positive price action despite a fairly uninteresting earnings release this week.

We like to follow the activity regardless, and today it’s leading us to focus on some WFM options. Rather than selecting weekly options that will expire this afternoon, we’ll go out to contracts that expire next Friday; the WFM 02/17 $30 & $30.50 Calls.


NantKwest, Inc. NK – Bottom-Bouncer

The NK chart gave off a pretty good bottom-bounce signal yesterday and the day before, so we’ll be interested in tracking the action in this play over the next several sessions on the chance that it can string together a multi-session uptrend.

From the chart below, it’s easy to see why we feel NK could be ripe for the picking. The RSI is increasing, while the MACD is a hair’s breath away from a bullish cross that generally indicates some significant move to the upside is in the stock’s near future. We’ll have our eyes peeled for that.
