Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Post-Earnings Options Plays

Energizer Holdings, Inc. ENR

We’ve been seeking out prime bottom play opportunities this week, and to continue that trend, we’ve run across Energizer this morning on the heels of the stock registering a new annual low yesterday.

In conjunction with the fact that Deutsche Bank just upgraded ENR from a Hold to a Buy rating with a price target of $52/share (trading in the $37-range yesterday), along with indicators that the stock is heavily oversold, and we are confident in calling this one a prime bottom play candidate as well.

Fresh Options Plays

We also have a pair of fresh earnings-related options ideas to pass along this morning. Post-earnings plays are typically our miost successful, and we’ve got a couple of good hunches about the following contracts as we cruise through this midweek.

FedEx Corp. FDX – Already in a good spot on the chart for a possible rebound leading into today’s session with a strong double-bottom setup, we’re looking to FDX options as FedEx’s Q4 results yielded a profits and earnings beat. As a result, we’re going to be tracking the FDX Weekly $157.50-60 Calls.

Micron Technology, Inc. MU – We are also looking at MU, which reported in the post-market yesterday as well, posting a beat on Q3 earnings, and bolstered guidance for sales of computer memory chips. Like the above mentioned play, MU is giving off a heavy multi-bottom signal. In this case we are interested in monitoring the MU Weekly $35-36.50 Calls.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AVGO Options Recap & More

Broadcom, Inc. AVGO – Recap

To close out the week on Friday, we took our usual approach in signaling some last-minute options ideas for possible daytrades. In this particular case, we were attracted to the AVGO Weekly $252.50-257.50 Calls, and we’re pleased to report total success on that front, with the help of an eleven-dollar swing from AVGO shares themselves.

All three of the contract sets contained within our designated range produced impressive gain opportunities on the day. The total possible profits for daytraders on each set were as follows:

$252.50 Calls – Range: 7.95-13.65 – Max Gain: 72%
$255 Calls – Range: 6.14-11.00 – Max Gain: 95%
$257.50 Calls – Range: 2.70-8.00 – Max Gain: 196%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: LLNKF Update

LiteLink Technologies, Inc. (OTCMKTS:LLNKF)(CSE:LLT) – Update

This morning, we are taking another look back at LLNKF, a stock we provided our readers with a special report on just a few sessions ago, on Thursday.

In the following day’s report, we commented on LLNKF’s move from a low of .1157 on up to .197 (+70%), and explicitly stated: “we definitely want to be on the lookout for a possible continuation of momentum. We’ll look for this play to register higher highs and higher lows and continue this bullish uptrend.”

On Friday the stock increased its high by a slight margin, and yesterday, ramped up even further. This time, it hit a new high of .30, which marks a fantastic three-session upswing and total gain opportunity of 159% Yesterday’s performance came on the stock’s highest volume on record.

Anytime we see a stock double from our initial alert, it’s always a great idea to take risk out of the equation, by taking half of the investment off of the table. This way, we’re playing with the house’s money, and always in a position to where any further gains are pure profit. Another smart tactic is to use a mental stop-loss order at a key support level. Yesterday’s swing low of .1993 would be a good area to do just that. So for example, if the PPS drops below that key support, it might be a good idea to lock in the rest of our profits. These are just a couple tricks of the trade that we like to go by.

The TJX Companies. Inc. TJX – Fresh Options Idea

Also catching our attention this morning is the TJX chain, with the company producing favorable Q1 figures in this morning’s release. With a solid beat on earnings, and bolstered full year guidance, things are in good shape for a potential options trade here.

We’re going to place the TJX 06/21 $52.50-55 Calls on watch to correlate with the activity that we’re observing here in the premarket.

Moleculin Biotech, Inc. MBRX – Recap

We highlighted this play at the end of last month, and shortly thereafter we would observe a low of .7772. Last week, MBRX reached a new high of 1.47, which translates to a gain of 89% in roughly three weeks’ time.

The move, which filled the entirety of the topside gap on the chart, was due to Thursday’s revelation that the company’s drug Annamycin had received the FDA’s Approval for fast-track designation. At 4:30PM on Wednesday, MBRX officials will conduct a call to discuss this and other developments on a live webcast, which will be available in the Investor Relations section at www.moleculin.com.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Reviewing Recent Winners

STOCK RECAPS

Much of our focus gets devoted to options ideas these days, as they represent the greatest chance for large short term gains for traders. However, we still scan every day for stocks, and we wanted to begin this new trading week by highlighting a few of our recent picks that have met or exceeded our expectations.

Bio-Path Holdings, Inc. BPTH – Beginning with the least recent, roughly five weeks ago on January 23rd, BPTH was a stock we tagged as a bottom-watch play. The stock essentially traded sideways for the next month, only making nominal gains. That is until the latter half of last week, when it began to heat up on Thursday, and subsequently explode on Friday, performing beautifully on the day. The stock logged the number one gain on the entire NASDAQ, as it traded up from a low of 2.65 before reaching a high of 8.84.

That works out to a mind-melting 234% single-session rise on massive volume, which is extremely uncommon for big board plays. Cheers to anyone who caught a ride on this shooting star!
_____

Lexicon Pharma, Inc. LXRX – Appearing in Friday morning’s report was LXRX, which certainly didn’t see the level of activity as the previously mentioned play, but still posted positive figures on the day. From a low of 5.55, the stock rose as high as 7.07, marking a comparatively small but respectable intraday increase of 27%
_____

China Internet Nationwide Financial Services, Inc. CIFS – Also included in Friday’s report was CIFS, which also had a reasonably strong session following our alert. The low came in at 2.30 before the stock surged into the close at its high of day of 3.25. That represents a solid intraday gain of 41% We’ll also want to see if the stock can carry some of that momentum at the close, over to this fresh trading week.

Funko, Inc. FNKO – Options Review

We also signaled our interest in the FNKO 03/15 $22.50 & 25 Calls on Friday, and we got solid performances out of those contracts. The $22.50 Calls ran from .28-.70 for a gain of 150%
while the $25 also recorded a 150% pop from .10-.25.
