Blue Horseshoe Stocks: NUGT Options Recap & More

Direxion Daily Gold Miners Bull 3X ETF (NUGT)

NUGT has been on a fairly consistent rise for the past few weeks along with gold itself, and we were able to use the continuation of that trend to our extreme advantage yesterday.

We dropped a quick options idea for the NUGT Weekly $9-9.50 Calls into our watchlist, stipulating that we’d need to see a break of the 50DMA. We got what we were looking for, and the potential gains that followed were substantial.

$9 Calls – Range: .56-1.53 – Max Gain: 173%
$9.50 Calls – Range: .30-1.07 – Max Gain: 257%

Chat reminder: Also, we noticed the magnitude of the activity was going to allow for gains to made at higher increments, so we also suggested rolling up to the $10 Calls shortly after the open. Those ended up running 172% from from .25-.68.

We were just mentioning the benefits of our daily traders chats the other day, and here we have a fine example of why reading our premarket reports can be greatly augmented by participating in our in-session chats as well. Again, just send a Skype contact request to ‘stocksumo’ if you wish to join us!  Any of our readers are welcome!


TransEnterix Inc. TRXC – Insider Buying

We noticed a filing for a huge $5.2M insider position increase on TRXC at a price of 1.40, which coincides closely with recent relative lows, and isn’t too far above the stock’s annual low. We’ll be very interested to follow along with this stock after such a vote of confidence from an existing investor.  (>>View Filings)

Added Note: Speaking of insider trading plays, we also wanted to add a quick reminder on the one we submitted yesterday in STON. The stock made modest headway in continuing its established uptrend with a light 8% increase on the day, and will continue to be on our radars moving forward.


Immune Pharmaceuticals, Inc. IMNP

Additionally, we have a reminder to put out on IMNP, which we put on bottom-watch in our report dated December 27th. It took roughly a week of sideways trading for the stock to begin to perk its head up, but yesterday it began to gain some ground so we just wanted to remind readers that we still have this one on our viewscreens.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Kicking Off the Short Week

Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. IMMY

We began tracking IMMY as it was coming off of recent relative lows on Thursday morning, and at the time the stock saw a low of 2.12 before continuing the bottom-bounce that initially drew our attention.

That trend continued on Friday, as we suggested it might in our premarket report, with IMMY adding a solid session wherein the stock pushed its way from a low of 2.50 to a new high of 3.05. It went down in the books as an intraday increase of 22%, and a two-day swing of 44% over our observed low from Thursday.


Momentous Entertainment Group, Inc. MMEG

Wednesday morning’s premarket report was when we caught on with MMEG, and after making a nice two-day swing of 123% from a low of .0017 to .0038 on Wednesday and Thursday, the stock continued to push upward on Friday and secured multi-day runner status.

From a low of .0032 the ran to .0055, which works out to a daily rip of 72% and a three-day overall move of 224% over the low we saw on Wednesday.


Yippy, Inc. YIPI

We tagged YIPI in Friday’s extended watchlist, catching the stock just in time to witness a solid run from .60-1.09, which marked an intraday rise of 82%

The excellent single-session move came on volume of more than 17X the monthly average, so we’re definitely going to want to keep an eye on it as we kick off this holiday-shortened week.


Novus Acquisition & Development Corp. NDEV

After first alerting NDEV on December 12th, we’ve borne witness to a really nice run that has essentially lasted the entire time since then.

We observed a low of .30 in the stock on that first day, and it didn’t fall below that mark once in these ten ensuing sessions. What it has done, is gradually raise the bar, until it cracked through the dollar barrier to set a new high of 1.05 on Friday. That qualifies as a two-week swing amounting to 250%


Petrobras Argentina PZE

To wrap up this lengthy review of all the recent winners we’ve been tracking, we want to make a quick mention of PZE, which we slated as a bottom-watch play at the end of last month.

We urged readers to monitor the stock closely in the days that followed, feeling strongly that a rebound was in order, and the month of December has really validated that notion convincingly. From the low we witnessed the day after our alert at 4.66, PZE has made its way to a new high of 6.77, a solid 45% swing.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Revisiting VMEM, ONOV & More

Violin Memory, Inc. VMEM

This morning, we’re going to take a minute to go over the recent performance of a stock that we tagged for tracking on June 1st. At the time, we were noticing that VMEM, after a period of sharp consolidation that led to its 52-week lows roughly a month ago, was rebounding nicely.

Subsequent to our mention of the stock we observed a low of .482, and in the ensuing two weeks, it’s been mostly trending upward as you can see on the chart below. It has since reached a high of .79, representing a total increase of 64% over our observed low.

To remain interested in VMEM, we’ll need to see it hold support at or above its recent swing-low at .56 on any pullbacks.


BioNovelus, Inc. ONOV

We’ve got another stock in ONOV that we had previously mentioned earlier this spring, which has also managed a near-continual uptrend of late.

Following our alert of this play back on the 26th of April, it was trading for as little as .006 a share, and as you can plainly see, the climb it’s made since that time has been nothing short of monumental. The stock incredibly hit a new high of .103 yesterday, which registers as a 1617% upswing over our observed low!

Despite being quite overbought at the moment, we’ve got the indicator of all indicators, a Golden Cross, forming on the chart. Should the stock hold support at .04 or better on any dips, we’ll remain watchful for the possibility of further breakouts.


Extended-Term Watch Idea:

Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. MPAA – We took notice of MPAA this morning after the company’s mixed earnings release. We are seeing a number of attractive features of this stock at the moment, and want to put it on a longer-term watch. Not only is it currently feeling out its 52-week lows, but there has been a wave of Form-4 Buying that has been reported over the past week. These are attributes which have led us to good bounceplay opportunities in the past, so we’ll keep an eye peeled.
