Closing Out a Great Trading Week

Weekly Wrap-Up

We absolutely crushed on the options front this week. This occurs on a weekly basis to some extent, but our success this week was especially pronounced.

We had just gotten finished yesterday morning updating readers on the 200%+ gains made by our CAT calls in the previous session (which added new highs yesterday, by the way), when we submitted three fresh options trading ideas.

 We are pleased to report that two out of three of our newly submitted ideas produced opportunities for multi-bag gains for ourselves and our readers, with the third coming awfully close. Here’s the breakdown: 

AZN Weekly $46-47 Calls
$46 Calls – Range: 
.33-1.25 – Max Gain: 279%
$46.50 Calls – Range: .20-.60 – Max Gain: 200%

Black Cactus Global, Inc. BLGI

Thanks to our dear trader friend, Mark S. who has been a longtime follower of ours, for sending us a PM in the premarket relaying the fact that the company just reinstated with the SOS.

That led to us including BLGI in yesterday’s extended watchlist, and the stock subsequently made a move from .0069-.0265, for an upswing of  284% on the day!

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MNKD, VRX Recaps & More

MannKind Corp. MNKD

We tagged MNKD a week ago today in our premarket report on May 4th, and wanted to circle back around this morning to go over the excellent performance the stock has recorded since then. At the time the stock had been looking like it wanted to rebound after crashing down to a bottom and our decision to mention it turned out to be timed perfectly.

In each of the past five sessions MNKD has registered higher highs and higher lows, continuing to gain back ground that it had lost in previous weeks. From last Thursday’s low of .688, the stock has gone on to reach a high of 1.88, which represents an increase of 173% while volume over the same period has been impressive. The stock traded its highest volume since 2014 yesterday, so we’re really eager to continue tracking the activity in MNKD.


Valeant Pharmaceuticals, Inc. VRX

Despite already showing us amazing single-session gains ranging from 380-3600% on Tuesday, which we recapped in yesterday’s premarket report, our options idea for the VRX chain, the Weekly $10.50-12 Calls saw even further advances once the session kicked off.

We’ve included the total possible intraday gains from yesterday’s session, as well as the overall gains from our observed lows on Tuesday morning.

$10.50 Calls
– Daily Range: 1.43-2.36 – Daily Gain: 65% – Total Range: .40-2.36 – Two-Day Swing: 490%
$11 Calls – Daily Range: .92-1.99 – Daily Gain: 116% – Total Range: .18-1.99 – Two-Day Swing: 1005%
$11.50 Calls – Daily Range: .53-1.42 – Daily Gain: 68% – Total Range: .08-1.42 – Two-Day Swing: 1675%
$12 Calls – Daily Range: .29-.99 – Daily Gain: 241% – Total Range: .02-.99 – Two-Day Swing: 4850%

Even though it’s not even close to our only percentage gainer in the thousands, this round of options calls with VRX is certainly going down as one of our most solid picks of the year so far. Even if someone had only bought shares in VRX stock itself, they could have been up just over 22% on this two-day swing.


Groupon, Inc. GRPN

We want to place GRPN on recovery watch after noticing the stock coming up off a double-bottom, with a gap on the chart to fill to the upside, as you can see on the included snapshot.

We like to monitor plays in this position, so we’ll put it on our radars in the days and weeks ahead. Given the look of this chart, we’d classify this as relatively low-risk, low-reward in comparison one of our average plays.
