Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ITEK Recap, Options Ideas & More

Inotek Pharmaceutical Corp. ITEK

Our report for yesterday brought a couple of nice opportunities, with ITEK standing out as the most impressive. We caught this play on our routine morning scan, after noticing some abnormally elevated premarket activity. The company had released some information regarding its glaucoma treatment exiting Phase II studies and laying a strategic path for Phase III, and needless to say, it was very well-received.

This wasn’t a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it sort of move either, with just a small move up to start the session, ITEK traded sideways for most of the morning. Just prior to lunchtime is when we started to see the beginnings of an epic intraday run, especially for a stock in this price range.

From a low of  7.66, the stock exploded to reach a daily (and new annual) high of 16.75, standing as a single-session surge of 119%  The overall move as of this morning’s premarket high of 18.20 registers as an overnight increase of 138%  Cheers go out to any of our readers who caught our alert!

Inotek Pharmaceuticals Announces Positive End-of-Phase 2 Meeting with FDA and Phase 3 Development Strategy for Trabodenoson, a Novel Treatment for Glaucoma (Thu, Jul 23)

WindStream Technologies, Inc. WSTI

It was Tuesday’s Letter to Shareholders that caught our eye in the premarket news feed, causing us to raise a flag on WSTI that morning.

We’ve covered it every day since, and have been rewarded with incremental gains throughout, with the stock recording higher highs and higher lows each session. Yesterday, we witnessed an intraday run from .0172-.0244, which yielded the chance at gains of up to 42% on the day.

From our observed low on Tuesday (the 52-week low of .0085) we’ve now seen an overall jump in WSTI amounting to 187% in just three session’s time. Refer to the annotated chart below to evaluate WSTI’s chances of making further advances from this juncture.

Friday Options Ideas

If you recall last Friday, we came up huge with an alert on Weekly GOOG Calls.  We mentioned how time-decay at this point in the week begins to evaporate premiums in contracts with a weekly expiration, and generates a high-octane volatile environment where big gains are often there for the taking for those who can assume a higher-than-average risk.  A 694% intraday run from one of the sets of contracts we highlighted in that report was there to prove our point.

___

We’re going to venture a similar set of ideas this morning for Weekly AMZN Calls in the $575-595 range. The stock is gapping up hard this morning to the tune of 20%, thus we will have our eyes peeled for a classic dip-and-rip scenario.

___

We’re also going to put a marker flag on Weekly FB Calls from $96-50-97.50. The stock is rebounding off of a pullback over the past couple of days, after performing extremely well for the majority of this month.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: More Big Moves From MBHC and WSTI

Mobile Broadcasting Holding, Inc. MBHC

We’ve been very pleased with the way MBHC has performed over the past three sessions since our first mention at the beginning of this week, achieving a higher high each day. Monday’s session brought cumulative gains totaling 94%, and Tuesday’s swings cumulatively amounted to 95%

Yesterday, after bouncing off of the 100DMA  the stock went on a late-day run into the close, surging from .005-.0096. That registered as an intraday run of 92% so its clear to see why we might refer to this play as a flippers dream this week. The amount of price action has been really exciting, and we’re going to remain extremely vigilant for the potentiality of even more opportunities coming our way with this stock.

The exceptional performance has certainly been aided by the current vibe coming from the company through its latest press releases, and the enormity of the results that would be produced if the launch of their interactive live mobile video streaming platform continues to go as planned. We’ll certainly be watching closely for future updates as they come down the pipeline and will be sure to pass them along when they do.

As far as a new current outlook for the MBHC chart, we’ve drawn up another helpful video highlighting some key points. Be sure to check it out: 

WindStream Technologies, Inc. WSTI

Our continued tracking of WSTI was rewarded yesterday, with the stock performing precisely as we suggested it might for the second straight day.

We alerted this stock as a potential bottom-play on Tuesday, and that day we witnessed a 76% intraday run from .0085-.015. In yesterday’s report, we explicitly suggested that folks watch out for a dip fueled by early profit-taking, followed by a subsequent bounce, and it went off without a hitch.

The stock dipped to a morning low of .013 before running to a new high of .02, marking an intraday pop of 54% The new high also registers as a session-over-session increase of  135% from our observed low on Tuesday. Cheers to any of our readers who were following this gem along with us!

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: RUSS Recap, Gap-Up List & More

Direxion Daily Russia Bear 3X ETF (RUSS)
–
A few weeks back, on February 23rd, we radared the RUSS, which is a fund that trades with an inverse relationship with the Russian economy.

The past week has been particularly troubling for Russia, as its central bank slashed the primary interest rate by a full percent while revealing that its growth forecast predicted a shrinking of the economy by as much as 4% this year.

These and other economic curve-balls, including the continued lag in oil prices, have fueled a healthy rebound in the RUSS from the recent low we observed at 11.22. Friday’s high of 15.77 marked a 40% swing in a matter of eight trading sessions.

With some holding the belief that an even more severe and protracted economic meltdown could be in the cards for Russia, we’ll want to monitor RUSS on an ongoing basis.
