Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Momentum Movers & More

APT Systems, Inc. APTY

Here’s another multi-day momentum play that we’ve been tracking very closely. We first alerted APTY the the Friday before last, observing a low of .0036 at the time. By Friday morning, at which time we specified that we’d be tracking this play into this week, the stock had reached a high of .0125 (+247%).

Our decision to remain interested in the play paid dividends once again, as APTY had another exceedingly strong session Friday afternoon, running up another 65% intraday from .0099 to a new high of .0164. It marked an overall move of 356% in just a six-session span, so a big congrats goes out to any of our readers who were able to use this momentum-mover to their advantage.


NovaVax, Inc. NVAX

When we tagged NVAX in last Monday morning’s report we had a pretty good indication that the stock was in line for a significant rebound, and our expectations have been met at every turn. The stock has now strung together an impressive five consecutive sessions wherein a new high was achieved.

The stock traded in a modest daily range from 2.17-2.41, and from the low we witnessed a week ago today, that new upper limit has extended our potential gains on this play in the same time frame to a highly respectable 77%

As long as NVAX continues to achieve higher highs and higher lows, it will be afforded a slot on our watchscreens.


ACRE Reality Investments, Inc. AIII

Speaking of momentum plays, we tagged AIII in Tuesday morning’s premarket report, as a potential bottom-bounce candidate, and it too achieved higher highs and higher lows every single day following our initial flag.

The low we saw on Tuesday was 1.0194, and the subsequent recovery took it to a high of 1.42; a comparatively modest, yet still healthy 39% Just like the above-mentioned plays, AIII did enough throughout the course of last week to keep us interested in continuing to track its progress.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Huge Options Wins & Much More


Options Updates

We targeted a range of options calls in both FedEx and Adobe yesterday, as both stocks were showing good premarket activity on the heels of their earnings reports. It illustrated perfectly why we’re always formulating post-earnings options ideas.

FDX Weekly $165-170 Calls

$167.50 – Range: 3.16-6.71 – Max Gain: 112%

$105 – Range: 2.80-4.21 – Max Gain: 50%
$110 – Range: .83-1.41 – Max Gain: 70%

Both stocks are gapping up again this morning, so we expect to see extended gains on these contracts today.



Recovery Play Updates

Yesterday’s session confirmed validation of all three of the bottom-bouncers  that we highlighted in Tuesday’s premarket report.

MGT Capital Investments, Inc. MGT and ACRE Realty AIII – These were both new for us on Tuesday, getting our attention as stocks that were heavily oversold after reaching new lows. As it turns out, we timed those bottoms perfectly, as you can see in the side-by-side chart snapshot below.

So far the range we’ve observed on MGT is from 1.77-2.58, a 46% rise, and in AIII, a move up from .90-1.20 (+33%). We’ll stay on their trails to watch for a continuation of these rebounds.

NovaVax, Inc. NVAX –  While it did appear on our Bottom-Bounce Watchlist on Tuesday, NVAX began its own recovery when we initially brought it to the table in Monday’s report.  We’ve included a snap of this chart as well so you can see the excellent progress it’s made since then.

To this point we’ve witnessed a three day swing of  43% from 1.36-1.94. The stock closed at that high, so it too will be granted a reserved slot on our radars in coming sessions.

Jammin’ Java Corp. JAMN

We alerted JAMN as a potential bottom-play last Tuesday and it too has made a solid move to the upside since then.

We saw the low come in at .0011 following that mention, and yesterday the stock reached a new high of .0025. That represents a 127% rip off of its lows in just over a week’s time.


StrikeForce Technologies, Inc. SFOR

This is a stock that we’ve been familiar with in both the distant and recent past, and we included it once again in yesterday’s report. The stock kept piling on the excellent momentum we’ve observed over the past few sessions, and ultimately set a new high for us, falling just short of breaking the penny barrier.

SFOR traded in a modest intraday range  from .008 up to .0095, a 19% increase, closing strong once again at .0094. From the low we observed following our next most recent mention of the stock  (.0036) the new high represented an overall swing of 164%

We’ll be interested to see if SFOR can maintain momentum and breach into Pennyland. The last time it came close was nearly a year ago.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Ideas, Fresh Plays & More

Fresh Options Ideas

We had a good run of success with equities early on this week, so we thought it was high time to split our focus and turn our attention back to some options trading ideas. We’ve had monstrous success identifying winning calls in recent weeks, and there’s a couple of events driving the following stocks to gap up this morning. As usual, we’ll be on the lookout for dip-and-rip formations to unfold in these scenarios.

Facebook, Inc. FB – FB is soaring on the heels of a tidy earnings beat yesterday, and as a result, we’ll be scanning the FB Weekly $106-111 Calls for some exciting action today. If the premarket volatility is any indicator, we can expect to see some vigorous intraday swings from those contracts.

Expedia, Inc. EXPE – Following a confirmed buyout of HomeAway, Inc.AWAY, EXPE is popping in early trading as well. For this one, we’ll be tracking the EXPE Weekly $138-142 Calls.


AEterna Zentaris, Inc. AEZS

We’re going to be turning back to a stock that we’ve talked about in the past in AEZS. The stock registered a brand new 52-low of .04 a week ago today, and has been making solid progress in establishing higher lows off of that bottom since then.

We’re going to begin watching AEZS more closely in the sessions ahead. We’re looking specifically for a break of the current 50DMA at .074, after which there isn’t much in the way of resistance until the .10-area.


General Steel Holdings, Inc. GSI

GSI has been backsliding for quite some time and has breached well into oversold territory. When we come across a chart like this, our natural instinct is to place it on bottom-watch.

We had critical success calling out the bottoms on MIL and APDN toward the end of last week, and GSI is looking like it could be the next bounce-play.
