Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Continued Options Tracking & More

Options Recap

To start things off today we’ll be going over the continued success of our running options ideas for the week. During market conditions like the ones we’ve been seeing, oftentimes big gains from stocks can be fewer and farther between, so it’s nice to be able to fall back on options trading. Quarterly periods where earnings reports are dropping with the highest frequency really provides a lot of great chances for quick strike profits.

Ford Motor Co. (F) – Ford has been an excellent example of a massive gainer in a short span. We’ve been tracking F Weekly $14.50 and $15 Calls since Tuesday, at which time we observed lows of .18 and .02 respectively.  After the $14.50’s made huge gains possible for us that day, the $15’s joined in yesterday and both sets went haywire.

The $14.50’s ran from a daily low of .35 to a high of .78; an intraday romp of 123%

The $15’s traded in a massive range from .05-.32, giving daytraders a shot at gains of up to 540% on the session, and giving us yet another multi-bag call in what has been a landmark week for our options-trading ideas!

Pfizer, Inc. PFE – We also offered suggestions for Pfizer in the same Tuesday report, the   PFE Weekly $34.50 and $35 Calls. We saw lows of .26 and .10 respectively for those contracts. Yesterday, new highs were set in both cases, with the $34.50’s making a total move of 476% to 1.50, and the $35’s ramping up to the tune of 970% as they surged as high as 1.07.

Mobile Broadcasting Holding, Inc.  MBHC

MBHC has released a fresh PR this morning that we’ll suggest all our readers take a look at, as it pertains to the company’s ‘Whirld’ app  which, if everything remains in step with the timeline previously given by MBHC, is slated for official launch in mid-August.

Here’s a look at the current chart for MBHC on the snapshot below. The stock has managed to hold support off of the 50DMA amid recent consolidation, and we’ll be on the lookout for it to get its next leg up soon, especially with the app launch just a couple of short weeks away:

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Review & More

Options Review – Yesterday’s Big Winners
___
For some of our readers that may not have previously understood why we like to mix options-trading ideas in with our equities ideas, yesterday’s session served as an excellent example. All three of the stocks whose options chains we were tracking provided folks with substantial opportunities for lucrative daytrades. Here’s a breakdown:
___

Ford Motor Co. (F) – On the heels of the revelation that Ford had set revenue records and beat earning expectations for Q2, we saw the chance to leverage the resultant action on the chart to our great advantage. The range of contracts that we flagged for observation was the F Weekly $14.50 and $15 Calls. As the $15’s fell just shy of being pushed into the money, the main thrust of the action was in the $14.50’s. Those contracts went big, with a surge from a low of .18 all the way up to .42; an intraday spike of 133% We’ll be on the lookout for potential dip-and-rip scenarios in Ford to create the possibility of further opportunities as the week wears on.
___

Pfizer, Inc. PFE – it was also a beat on earnings that propelled our PFE ideas to substantial intraday gains. Our specific area of interest were the PFE Weekly $34.50 and $35 Calls. The $34.50’s made an impressive move from .26-.88 for total possible gains of 238% and the $35’s really performed with a monster 410% run from .10-.51!

___

Baidu, Inc. BIDU – In a departure from our standard options M.O., we identified a chance to play some Puts as BIDU was taking an absolute shellacking after its own earnings missed the mark. The downfall continued throughout the session, and fueled the success of our observed contracts, which were the BIDU Weekly Puts in the $180-175 Range. The trading ranges and maximum gains on all three sets of contracts were as follows:

$180 Calls – Daily Range: 8.00-18.05 – Max Gain: 126%
$177.50 Calls – Daily Range: 5.20- 14.90 – Max Gain: 187%
$175 Calls – Daily Range: 3.88-13.10 – Max Gain: 238%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Fresh Options Ideas & More

Pazoo Inc. PZOO

PZOO has been progressing well in the past several sessions since we last touched base with the stock a couple of weeks ago. We had just received word from the company that its wholly-owned CannabisKing Distribution subsidiary had struck two significant deals (Links to PR’s below), and witnessed a two-session swing of 74% as a result.

After regrouping and bouncing off of a low of .0046 (07/13), PZOO has made continuously higher lows for the rest of this month, and pushed its PPS back to the current range (.006-.007). We’ve provided the following snapshot illustrating the current bullish characteristics of the chart.

We’ll be on the lookout for further updates regarding the many irons PZOO currently has in the fire, and you can be sure that we’ll pass them along as the stories develop.

Fresh Options Ideas

As we approach midweek with earnings drops in full swing, we’re going to formulate a few corresponding options ideas we feel have the potential to perform well:

Ford Motor Co. (F) – Ford set record North American profits and beat Wall St. expectations handily this morning. The stock is gapping up moderately, so we’re going to taking a look at F Weekly $14.50 and $15 Calls, which should produce some nice action.

Pfizer, Inc. PFE –  Pfizer also had an earnings beat on their Q2 release today, and our related options ideas will be to monitor PFE Weekly $34.50 and $35 Calls.

Baidu, Inc. BIDU – After an extreme analyst downgrade, BIDU is taking an absolute beating, and is leading us to include a rare idea on the bearish side of things; we’ll be tracking BIDU Weekly Puts in the $180-175 Range.

Cytori Therapeutics, Inc. CYTX

We also want to raise a flag on a familiar stock cropping up in the news feed this morning. Early this year we saw CYTX make a huge move, and after spending the last several months in a general downtrend, some FDA-related news out this morning could be just the thing to catalyze a reversal. We’ll be watching intently for that possibility; check out the news below.

Cytori Therapeutics, Inc. (CYTX) today announced that Kerastem Technologies, a wholly owned subsidiary of Bimini Technologies, received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) conditional Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) approval to conduct a clinical trial studying the safety and feasibility of its technology for the treatment of female and early male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia). >> FULL PR
