Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Recap & More

Seagate Technologies plc. STX – Options Recap

Although it would end up reversing and heading lower as the day progressed, STX did ride the bullish wave off of its healthy earnings beat for a solid upswing inside the first hour of trading yesterday.

That did facilitate a window of opportunity on the options contracts we were tracking, the STX Weekly $41-43.50 Calls. Traders who were quick on the draw yesterday morning could have taken away a piece of the following moves:

$41 Calls – Range: 1.78-5.28 – Max Gain: 196%
$41.50 Calls – Range: 2.00-4.48 – Max Gain: 124%
$42 Calls – Range: 1.99-4.50 – Max Gain: 126%
$42.50 Calls – Range: 2.11-3.45 – Max Gain: 63%
$43 Calls – Range:  .86-3.00 – Max Gain: 249%
$43.50 Calls – Range: .78-2.77 – Max Gain: 255%

We did signal our hunch that there would be a reversal in-session and a corresponding idea for the Weekly $46 Puts in our live traders chat, and those ended up doing quite well also, subsequently running from .60-3.29 (+448%) as STX continued to consolidate into the close.

It’s another example of why we urge any of our readers that want to get in on our daily traders chats to get a Skype contact request over to username ‘stocksumo’. That’s all it takes, and you can stay up to the minute on changing ideas throughout the day, and submit some of your own!

Avinger, Inc. AVGR

The current situation with the AVGR chart has caught our eye this midweek as the stock reversed course this week after a steep and rapid decline. We’re seeing increased activity in the premarket and AVGR has pushed its way up regaining much of the ground it has recently lost.

Currently trading around the 3.00 mark, a return to its recent swing high from roughly a month ago would mean gains of up to 50% so we’ll be monitoring AVGR over coming sessions for a possible continuation of the recovery that is presently in effect.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MCIG Review & More

mCig, Inc. MCIG

The first thing we want to do to kick off the short trading week, is rehash the recent performance of MCIG. In our first report of the year, we were reminding our members of our ongoing interest in the cannabis sector and related fields, and gave a laundry list of plays that we wanted to track going forward from that point.

The following morning, we would observe a low of .1599 in MCIG, before it began a two week bullish run, and it hasn’t looked back since.

On Friday, MCIG attained a new three-year high of .38, where it also closed. That works out to an overall increase of 138% that we’ve witnessed with MCIG in the first two weeks of 2017. With the strong close, we’ll be sure to watch its activity closely as we head into the third.

Retractable Technologies, Inc. RVP

The next thing crossing our screens that we feel warrants some attention is the present situation with RVP. We took notice of a Form-4 filing last week, alluding to the purchase of a large block of shares by the CEO.  Thomas Shaw picked up two million shares at .89, just a penny above the stock’s four-year low of .88, which was recorded on Friday.

With listing standards stipulating the maintenance of a PPS of at least a dollar, and the added confidence engendered by an executive placing faith in his stock through purchase on the open market, we feel RVP has the makings of a prime bottom-play, and we’ll be very interested to track its progress in this regard.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Update & More

Options Update

Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. HTZ –  Yesterday, we signaled our interest in HTZ Weekly $11 & $11.50 Calls and began to see instant returns. The $11 Calls traded in a intraday range from .27-.46, allowing for single-session gains of up to 70%

There wasn’t much volume to speak of for the $11.50’s just yet, but we expect that to change this morning as HTZ is once again making a strong move, gapping up in premarket trading this morning. Not only should we see activity pick up with those contracts, but the gains we’ve observed in the $11’s thus far are almost certain to be extended should this uptrend continue to carry into today’s session.

Lulu Lemon Athletica, Inc. LULU – Our eye is drawn to LULU this morning in the wake of its earnings release. Despite mixed results, the stock is gapping up here in the premarket. In order to take advantage of a potential rip out of the gate, we’re going to set our sights upon LULU Weekly $67-70 Calls.

Gevo, Inc. GEVO

GEVO is a familiar play that we’ve mentioned in the past, although we can’t provide specific reference at the moment with archives being hosted on our server currently under malicious attack.  We want to call attention to it once again this morning.

The stock began ramping up on Monday, at which time is was trading in the mid-.30’s, only to go on a massive intraweek run that took it to a new high of .685 yesterday, and an impressive 1.95 high in this morning’s premarket. It has tapered back a bit, so we’ll be anxious to track for the possibility of a bounce followed by another spike once regular trading commences.

We’ll need to see the stock maintain support above a dollar on any pullbacks in order for it to keep our interest.
