Blue Horseshoe: Pot Stocks Update & More

Pot Stocks Update
–
Even as we’ve had other things occupying our main focus, we’ve stated continuously that traders should keep the cannabis sector on close watch. Following the complete hysteria over the industry which reached its peak shortly after we rung in the new year, we’ve seen just what we expected; consolidations leading to bounces that in many cases have been good for gains approaching those achieved by the New Year’s rush. So let’s take a look at some of the more notable performers from our long-standing watchlist. These represent just a few of the opportunities that marijuana related stocks have continued to bring us. We are not done with this sector by any means, and feel strongly that it will yield more and more gains as time goes on.

ENDEXX Corp. EDXC

We’ve had EDXC on our radar for a very long time, and it is one that didn’t lose much ground at all after pulling back off of its initial surge. Beginning at less than seven cents, 2014 has seen the stock continue to bull its way upward, touching .235 yesterday. It’s certainly a far cry from when we first came upon the stock last year, back when it was trading at roughly .015.

Cannabis Science, Inc. CBIS

CBIS has made quite an impressive bounce after consolidating off of its big run, finding support at .075; from there, it launched itself back upward for a sizable move to yesterday’s high of .1255. That marks a three-session move of 67%

Creative Edge Nutrition, Inc. FITX

The last time we looked in on FITX was on January 14th, at which time the stock was searching for support, and found it at .0174 the following day. It didn’t take long for the stock to produce yet another huge run, touching .045 during yesterday’s session. It broke above an area of previous resistance at .031, so on the next downswing, we’ll be looking for FITX to hold that level as support.

We’ve already pointed out how powerful a signal the Golden Cross can be, and FITX is yet another prime example of this. That’s why we’ve been keeping such a keen eye on our next play, because it too has a Golden Cross in the making.

Resource Ventures, Inc. REVI

REVI held its ground very well yesterday, after our bounce-call on Tuesday took it from .0074-.0105. It registered a higher low at .0085, and managed to close out the day in the green at .009. We’d like to see REVI continue to hold support in the .0075-.0085 as it works toward its Golden Cross, which if the current trend holds, could potentially occur within the next week or two.


ARIAD Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ARIA & Hemishperix BioPharma, Inc. HEB

We’ve been tracking both of these pharma plays for awhile, which are worthy of mentioning this morning:

ARIA

We mentioned ARIA back in October when it was trading around its 52-week low at 2.15. In Mid-December, it began a run which yesterday resulted in a high of 6.75. This morning the stock is gapping up into the 7.30-range.

ARIA has been the subject of potential buyout rumors originating in the UK, with names like GlaxxoSmithKline being tossed around. While this remains speculation at this time, the ramifications of a buyout would be huge, so this is a story we’ll continue to follow.

HEB

In the case of HEB, we’ve tracked this play since December, where it found a bottom in the low .20’s, and has performed exceptionally well into the new year. Yesterday the stock hit a high of .4978.

Extended Watchlist:
PSTI, INO, CVM, CBMX

CHTP, TSLA, CANN & Extended Watchlist

Chelsea Therapeutics International, Inc. CHTP
–
This is a bio-pharma play that we’ve mentioned in the past, which has been undergoing some interesting activity. The stock recently fell off of a cliff, coming down from nearly 4.50 at the end of 2013, to find a bottom in the high 2.20’s on Monday. It was halted for yesterday’s session over the release of an FDA-approval related PR (below), and has resumed trading pre-market this morning, already up over 150%.  It will be exciting to see how the pattern unfolds today. Rest assured, we will be laying in wait for what appears to be potential breakout conditions.

Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA – Options Ideas

It’s been awhile since we delivered any options-trading ideas, and have noticed some potential with TSLA. The stock was on the move yesterday, punching over the $160-mark. We want to radar the $165 & $170 Weekly Calls (Expiring 01/18) for possible intraday flip opportunities.

For instance- The 170 Calls closed at 1.17 yesterday, and will most likely gap up this morning, to the tune of 100%. If we were to see a move to $180 out of TSLA, those contracts could potentially approach the $10-mark

Advanced Cannabis Solutions, Inc. CANN

CANN was among a group of pot stocks that we added to our tracking list last week, and even as some of the other marijuana plays have been searching out a bottom, this one has managed to sustain its uptrend. We mentioned that it was on the rebound yesterday morning, and from its open at 8.00, the stock managed to close at 10.40. That marks a single-session move of 30%

Continuing Cannabis Coverage

We mentioned yesterday that despite some slight pullbacks in a few of our marijuana-related stocks on Friday, that we had better be on the lookout for rebound action. There were definitely some opportunities for that provided by some of our favorite ‘pot stocks’. The majority of the sector did indeed experience further gains, and we certainly saw tons of volume on all accounts. Here are a few of the more stand-out performances from this sector that we have been tracking heavily for an extended period:

GreenGrow Technologies, Inc. GRNH

GRNH continued its multi-day run on Monday. This was one of the ones that did not pull back on Friday. GRNH has been on a strong uptrend since we caught it toward the end of last week as it was trading at .045, and as of yesterday’s high of .185, the stock had given us the chance to make up to 311% in profits in just three sessions.

GrowLife, Inc. PHOT

We’ve seen a low of .157 out of PHOT so far in 2014, and yesterday the stock continued to push upward, touching .239. That marks a solid 52% move since last Thursday.

Tranzbyte Corp. ERBB

ERBB saw a low of .0026 before surging as high as .0035, marking an intraday move of 35% on almost 10X its average volume.

Terra Tech Corp. TRTC

TRTC made a nice move on Monday as well, trading from its daily low at .157 up to .185 for a 16% intraday gain. This came on roughly three times the average volume.

Creative Edge Nutrition, Inc. FITX

FITX managed a gain of 15% on nearly 4X its 3mo. average volume, as it traded in a daily range from .0054-.0062

Oxygen Biotherapeutics, Inc. OXBT

We liked the session put up by OXBT following its inclusion in yesterday’s extended watchlist. The stock made a solid 15% move from 5.5788 up to 6.44 on heavy volume. We’ll continue to keep an eye on this play moving forward. The company has news out today, announcing a couple of upcoming conference appearances.

MORRISVILLE, N.C., Jan 07, 2014 (BUSINESS WIRE) — –Biotech Showcase(TM) 2014 on January 15thOxygen Biotherapeutics, Inc., (NASDAQ: OXBT) a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing a portfolio of products for the critical care market, today announced that it is scheduled to present at two upcoming healthcare investor conferences in San Francisco.

Mr. Kelley will provide an update on the business operations, including the acquisition of certain assets of Phyxius Pharma Inc. and the development and near-term commercialization of levosimendan to prevent and treat cardiac surgery patients at risk for developing low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS).

AmeraMex International, Inc. AMMX

AMMX first appeared in our extended watchlist last Monday, and once again yesterday. During yesterday’s session we observed as the stock traded in a range from .0064-.0085, a 33% move. From last week’s low of .0047, that’s a gain of up to 81%

AMMX closed at the .0085 high of day on greater-than-average volume. Couple that fact with some of the indicators on the current AMMX chart, and this shows itself as a momentum play of great interest for the remainder of the week.


Origin Agritech, Inc. SEED

Another interesting pick from yesterday’s extended watchlist was SEED. The stock traded in a daily range from 2.15 up to 2.67 (+24%), and finished on a strong note 2.56.  We can see that SEED is gapping up this morning, with premarket trades going off as high as 2.95. We’ll be eager to see how much more this play can continue to push the envelope.
