Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Rundown & More

Wizard World, Inc. WIZD

We’d like to start things off this morning with an update on a stock we’ve been tracking since the end of last week. We introduced WIZD in Friday’s premarket report, presenting it as a potential bottom-play. We noticed that it had recently been crushed down to new annual lows, and drew up a chart to illustrate the opportunity.

Over the last few sessions the stock has done a good job of building a higher base of support and regaining some of the ground it lost this summer. Yesterday it attained a daily high of .45, which marks a 36% upswing over our observed low.

We’ll want to see WIZD continue to make a healthy recovery, ideally holding support above .40 on any pullbacks. The stock was trading up close to a dollar as recently as June, and a return to those levels from current pricing would mean gains approaching 100% The chart is still bearing the look of potential, as you can see a number of bullish indicators on the snapshot below.

Options Rundown

First Solar, Inc. FSLR – Yesterday we identified a couple of potential options ideas, and one of them provided several chances for lucrative intraday trades. Our targeted range was the Weekly $47-50.50 Calls and while every set of contracts within did make increases, for time’s sake we’ll just highlight some of the top gainers.

The 47.50 Calls surged 188% from 1.91-5.50. The $50’s traded in a range from .63-3.15 , a whopping 400% jump, while the $50.50 Calls had the biggest day with a run from .38-2.58, an amazing 579%.

FitBit, Inc. FIT – Also on our radar was FIT, which we mentioned on Tuesday with the idea of tracking the $50-51 Calls. Those contracts ended up making wild runs into earnings:

The $50 Calls traded as low as 2.19 on Tuesday and reached a high of 4.40 yesterday (+101%). The $50.50 Calls went from 2.14-4.10 (+92%), and the $51’s jumped from 2.00-3.85 (+93%).

After getting beat up on the heels of that earnings report, this morning we’ll watch for chances with the FIT $45-48 Calls.

Apple, Inc. AAPL – We also want to make mention of AAPL, which we’ve been following this week via our extended watchlists, and in our traders chatroom*. After a period of consolidation, we were awaiting an AAPL rebound, and yesterday we got what we were looking for- big moves occurred in the Weekly $115-116 Calls. Moving forward, we’re going to be on the lookout for the possibility of added gains in those plays, especially heading into tomorrow when they close in on expiration.

Pazoo, Inc. PZOO

We also want to shine a light on PZOO again today, with the company making a significant press announcement right at the open this morning:

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MIXX Review, Options Ideas & More

Mix 1 Life, Inc. MIXX

To kick the week off on Monday morning, we highlighted a couple of fresh news bottom plays, and MIXX was among them. If you refer to that premarket report, we stated that MIXX was  “piquing our interest with a premarket PR and its positioning on the chart as a good bottom-watch candidate. The stock has fallen dramatically to new 52-week lows, and is looking extremely oversold… we’re going to slate this one for observation as the potential recovery could produce some serious chances for profit.”

We honestly couldn’t have been more right about MIXX seeming out of place at such low price, and that impression of the chart led us to the chance for some serious profits. Yesterday’s trading range brought the stock from a low of .98 all the way up to 3.15, which marks an intraday jump of 221%

This play served as yet another added reminder of why we are constantly scanning for stocks which have been crushed down to new annual lows without significant material changes. It is often a precursor to hefty rebounds like the one MIXX has produced this week.


Mobile Broadcasting Holding, Inc. MBHC

Speaking of intraweek swings, MBHC has continued to make a comparatively modest yet still significant move of its own off of its recent swing low of .0042. Yesterday the stock pushed its way back to a high of .0069, an overall positive change of 64%

It came in conjunction with a press announcement highlighting the appointment of a new CEO who will be navigating the company through the upcoming launch of the company’s new app to both Apple and Android markets. The timeline given in a prior press release from MBHC has the official release coming up later this month.

PISCATAWAY TOWNS, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / August 4, 2015 / Mobile Broadcasting Corporation, (OTC PINK: MBHC) Mobile Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) announced today that Darryl M. Sanders will be taking the reigns as President and CEO of MBHC. He will lead the company’s public launch of the WHIRLD Mobile Broadcasting Network >> FULL PR

Options Ideas

We’ve had strikingly good fortune with options recently, so here are a couple of fresh ideas that we’re going to be monitoring today. We’re going to give a wide target range for each of them. Be aware that when we signal wider ranges of call contracts it’s always less risky to start at the lower strike price, (i.e. deeper in-the-money) and roll up our strike price if the stock looks like it wants to continue to break out. We’ve identified many winning contracts in the past using this broad-sweep monitoring method.

Zillow Group, Inc. (Z) – Here we are going to be slating the Z Weekly $77-82 Calls for observation.

First Solar, Inc. FSLR – For FSLR our target range looks to be the Weekly $47-50.50 Calls.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: LXRX Recap & Much More

Lexicon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. LXRX

Our first order of business today is to congratulate any of our readers who were able to turn our premarket alert of LXRX into hefty intraday gains.

We were given ample opportunity to do so, as a hugely significant PR left the stock positively charged for most of the session. A momentous intraday run began from an early low of 10.83 and topped out at an HOD of 13.80. That translates to a 27% jump, which is a very impressive single-session performance for a $10 stock.

If you recall, we hit this one from multiple angles; our options trading idea of tracking Weekly $10 Calls was also good for potential profits. Those contracts traded up from a low of 1.50 all the way to 3.90, which was good for gains of up to 160%

LXRX held the majority of its daily advance, which occurred on well over 30-times the 3-month average volume. That sets the stock up with plenty of momentum, and signals us to keep an eye out in coming sessions for a continuation of such. In the event that occurs, as far as options are concerned, we’d roll our strike price up to the Weekly $12.50 Calls, which already made a heck of a move yesterday from .45-2.00.

Hutchinson Technology, Inc. HTCH

We also want to give a quick update on HTCH, which we entered into the conversation via Friday’s premarket report. We witnessed the beginning of its run that day with a low of 1.60, and subsequent 22% pop to 1.95.

Yesterday, the stock set a new high of 2.25, which marked a two-day increase of 41% In order for us to remain interested in this play. we’ll need to see it continue to record higher lows.

Super-Subpenny Bottom-Watchlist

Here are a couple of stocks trading in the triple-zero range that we thought were worthy of compiling into a potential bottom-play watchlist as we head into midweek. We’ll include charts for the pair illustrating the reasoning behind that:

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: New Item of Interest – MBHC


Mobile Broadcasting Holding, Inc. MBHC

We’re going to start off this new trading week with a new item of interest in MBHC, a stock with an interesting backstory that began to build some nice momentum on the chart toward the end of last week.

The main focus of the company at the moment is the impending launch of its new mobile streaming app, known as Whirld. It is intended to be the first truly real-time, interactive, mobile video broadcasting utility, and has been approved for sale in the Apple APP Store (iOS) and the Google Play Market (Android).

The launch was originally slated for late this spring, but was temporarily delayed for extra time in beta testing, and to upgrade to a global communications platform that will allow for more expedient updates and enhancements once the app is in operation. Per the release which revealed that announcement, we are now less than a month away from seeing all of the necessary changes implemented and having the app hit stores.

To facilitate all of the progressive changes at the company and give the Whirld app its best chance for success, MBHC brought in two industry heavyweights with the collective knowledge to get it off the ground; Jeff Marcus, and Alan Rambam.

Jeff Marcus has had his hand in billions of dollars worth of IT startups over the years, building himself an extremely impressive resume`. From his early days as a software engineer for IBM and formulating network solutions for UPS and KPMG, he began accruing the knowledge required for an ambitious endeavor such as the Whirld app. His career led him to high-level networking positions at companies like 24/7 Real Media (sold for $650M) and DoubleClick (Google buyout totaling $3.1B). He’s had a front-row seat for the development of the mobile age, and brings all of that experience and know-how to MBHC.

Alan Rambam is a social media, advertising, and analytics expert who previous job experience file is also jam-packed. He was one of the youngest staff members in the Clinton Administration,  and would go on to found Shine, Inc. were he would develop well-known social campaigns and charities such as the MTV Fight for Your Rights Campaign, and the Muhammad Ali Scholarship Fund.

On Friday,  MBHC enjoyed a surge in momentum in the wake of an exciting press release that really ramps up Whirld’s extreme potential as an app. In an global deal signed with none other than Twitter, MBHC has secured itself as the the home for Electronic Dance Music (EDM), a rapidly growing genre,to provide the most shared, real-time EDM concert footage on Earth. It includes unfettered access to air in real-time every piece of content placed on Twitter from some of the worlds biggest EDM Festivals (including Tomorrowland, Electric Daisy Festival, Ultra, and Electric Zoo). This is a significant proposition, with EDM Festivals raking in roughly $4.5B annually; no other genre of festival music in the world can make such a claim. EDM has a huge following in the younger generation, which is a key demographic being targeted by MBHC for the Whirld app. >>> VIEW PR

As we said, the MBHC chart has also recently awakened, with a good bit of momentum building up at the end of last week. We’ve prepared a corresponding video presentation for your viewing convenience:

Options Recap – Friday’s Huge Winner

We can’t go without mentioning the top-notch options ideas we offered our readers in Friday’s premarket report. In the midst of taking credit for the previous session’s ideas we had on NFLX (One of which ran more than 3800% in a single session!) we presented GOOG as a good options-trading candidate and recorded a target range. Specifically, we called attention to GOOG Weekly $640-655 Calls. As everyone should be aware, GOOG had a landmark session after the earnings beat;
impressively gaining more than 16% as it traded in a range from 645.00 – 674.47.

As a result, and for the second consecutive day, our options ideas went haywire and yielded up the chance at some excellent profits. Here’s a breakdown of the moves that were made by those hot-ticket contracts:

$640 Calls – Daily Range: 8.80-29.00 – Max Gain: 230%
$642.50 Calls – Daily Range: 9.40-27.40 – Max Gain: 191%
$645 Calls – Daily Range: 6.20-24.90 – Max Gain: 302%
$650 Calls – Daily Range: 3.90-23.56 – Max Gain: 302%
$655 Calls – Daily Range: 2.33-18.50 – Max Gain: 694%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AAPL Recap, MDCN News & More

Apple, Inc. AAPL – Options Recap

To start things off this week we want to look back to Friday’s report wherein we suggested that $131 and $132 Weekly Calls would be in play for possible daytrading opportunities, and our assertion was spot-on. The trading range on the $131 Calls was from .63-1.98, which was an overall spike of 214%, while the $132’s jumped from .14 to 1.00; a total increase of 614%

Those ranges, while extremely impressive, only reflect a fraction of the total possible gains for folks with daytrading ability. As you can see on the following chart snapshots of Friday’s intraday activity, these AAPL Calls were both what we commonly refer to as a “Flipper’s Dream”. Not one, but three big swings could have provided major ammunition for top-shelf profits.

Medican Enterprises, Inc. MDCN

MDCN is a marijuana-related stock that we’ve tracked in the past that has cropped up with a noteworthy PR this morning that we think our readers ought to check out.

Additionally, following a huge a huge run in late March, the stock has been under serious consolidation so it also qualifies as a potential bottom play as well. This will definitely be one to keep on our radars this week.
