Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Winning Options Trades & More

GW Pharmaceuticals, Inc GWPH

We brought GWPH back for an update just in the nick of time yesterday, as the stock would go on to have a great session, running slightly over 12% from 81.12 to 91.10, which allowed the Options Calls we were tracking to make some incredible moves. If you refer to yesterday’s report, you can see that we radared the $80-85 Calls, and anyone who followed us into the fray was handsomely rewarded!

The $80 Calls bulled their way from the open at  2.80 and would trade as high as 10.90 before the day was done. That’s a walloping 289% rip. The $85 Calls did even better, making a monstrous 1757% move from the opening price of .35 to a high of 6.50!  That’s quite good enough to mark GWPH Calls down as one of this month’s most spot-on picks.

3D Systems Corp.  DDD

DDD exploded off of yesterday morning’s Extended Watchlist, wherein we tagged the $52-53 Calls. The stock subsequently traded in a range from 51.65 – 54.58 (+5.6%) which opened up the door on another set of winning options plays.

The $52 Calls opened at .78, and would run as high as 2.70, a 246% intraday run, and the $53’s traded from .41-1.92, giving traders the chance for up to 368% in profit.

Both this and the previously mentioned play are excellent examples of why we’ve branched out from just tracking the stocks themselves, to mentioning so many Options opportunities. The gains are often very impressive, and have become a staple in our day-to-day trading activities.

Solar Wind Energy tower, Inc. SWET

After tracking SWET over the previous few sessions to gains amounting more than 20% we continued to like the look of the chart yesterday morning, putting it in our daily report. The stock pushed its upper boundary once again, this time hitting a high of .027.

It was good for an intraday gain of 23% from the morning low at .022, and represents an overall increase from the bottom we caught on Friday (.0185) of 46%

Congrats to anyone who has been able to take advantage of our timely alerts on this play!

Extended Watchlist:
ETRM, MEET, LIVE, AUMN, PAL, ZLCS,

TSLA, PLUG, ETRM, OMED & Extended Watchlist

Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA – Options
–
Back on November 29th, we were noticing that conditions on the TSLA chart had been exhibiting signs of a coming uptrend, and as a result, we presented a few options trading ideas that we felt had a reasonable chance of success. In particular, the 12/21 $120 Calls, and the 12/27 $130 Calls. We were rewarded for our interest, as the stock did indeed find its legs and begin to run following that report.

Since then we’ve seen some major moves out of those contracts, as the $120 Calls ended up trading from a low of 8.40, all the way up to yesterday’s closing price of 25.46, a monstrous 203% gain. The $130 Calls saw their low at 5.03, and ended up closing at 17.07. That was good for an even larger 239% rip.

Chartwise, it appears as if resistance is sitting at $145.65, $151, and the 50DMA of $159.45, and there is a gap on the chart to fill from $160-176, so a push past those key resistance points could lead to more pronounced increases. We would continue to take advantage of the added gains on these contracts, and in the event of a sustained uptrend, would have to consider rolling our strike price up to higher level that we believe would still be pushed into the money.

Plug Power, Inc. PLUG

PLUG has been an old favorite of ours from last March when we caught it on our scanners coming off its 52-wk lows (.1155) and we’ve mentioned it on multiple occasions since that time. We’ve followed this play all the way up to current levels, which as a result of recent favorable reports on the company’s finances, have reached all the way up to this morning’s pre-market high of 1.41. That represents an increase of 1121% off of lows following our initial alert.

We’ll be continuing to monitor PLUG closely, and will certainly want to take part in today’s conference call/webcast in which the CEO will address the reasoning behind his statement that the company is on pace for a “blowout quarter.”, as well as other issues.

EnteroMedics, Inc. ETRM

ETRM was part of yesterday’s Extended Watchlist, and the stock went on to put up quite a performance. After touching a low of 1.48 shortly before 10:30am, ETRM would spend the rest of the day pressing upward to its high of day and closing price at 2.24. This marks an impressive intraday run of 51% on nearly 20x its 3mo. average volume.

We’ll certainly want to keep an eye on a stock with current momentum of this magnitude.

OncoMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. OMED

Another winner from yesterday’s Extended Watchlist, OMED traded in a range from 22.10-31.99, which marks an intraday move of 45% Quite an impressive feat for a big-board stock in this price range.

CNAT, GOGO, UNIS, CAMT & Extended Watchlist

Conatus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. CNAT

We caught CNAT on our scanner this morning, and is definitely a stock we’d like to keep an eye on today, following an FDA-related announcement regarding a drug that the company has under development receiving “Orphan Drug” status. FDA plays have provided us with countless opportunities in the past, especially when the news is untraded upon, so we’ll be interested to see how well CNAT fares today as a result.

(CNAT), today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Orphan Drug Designation to Conatus’ drug candidate emricasan for the treatment of liver transplant recipients with reestablished fibrosis to delay the progression to cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease.

Conatus is developing emricasan, a first-in-class, orally active caspase protease inhibitor designed to reduce the activity of enzymes that mediate inflammation and cell death (or apoptosis), for the treatment of patients with chronic liver disease and significant unmet medical need.

GOGO, Inc. GOGO

We have been hot on the trail of GOGO since our first mention on Monday Sept. 16th when it was trading as low as 14.79. We witnessed the stock’s 52-wk high a few weeks later on Nov. 14th (31.55), and then it consolidated to find support at 24.24.

Yesterday, GOGO re-established its 52-wk high at 31.65, and appears to want to gap up and continue its run today. This morning, the company has news out concerning the green light is has received to install its wifi satellite technology on Boeing 747 aircraft. and we’ve seen pre-market trades going off as high as 32.75. From our original alert price, that marks registers as a 121% gain. Heading into today’s session, we’d like to see the previous 52-wk high of 31.55 hold as support on any future pullbacks.

Unilife Corp. UNIS

Camtek, Ltd. CAMT

Yesterday wasn’t the first time we’ve mentioned CAMT on our extended watchlist only to see the stock turn in an impressive performance; last Monday, we tagged CAMT as a possible runner, and subsequently witnessed a pop from 4.11-5.29 (+29%). In a repeat of that scenario, yesterday we saw the stock trade from a low of 4.20 on up to 5.75, for a possible gain of 37%
