Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AXN, JDST Recaps & More


Aoxing Pharmaceutical Co. Inc. AXN

AXN emerged as one of the day’s most interesting plays following its inclusion in Friday morning’s premarket report. After briefly touching an early morning low of 1.15, the stock would go on to register a subsequent high of 1.63.

That works out to an intraday increase of 42%, and it came on roughly fourteen times the three-month average volume.

After a fairly strong close (1.49) in which the stock held well over half of its daily gains, AXN appears to be gapping up slightly this morning, having risen back into the 1.50’s. This type of activity is characteristic of a classic “momo play”, so we’ll have an eye peeled for AXN as things kick off today to watch for a possible continuation of that momentum.


Pervasip Corp. PVSP

When PVSP appeared in one of our daily reports in late January, we referred to it as a super-subpenny ‘bottom-bouncer’, and it has held to that description in the truest sense over the past several weeks. Less than two weeks ago, the stock was trading at the lowest possible increment (.0001), and toward the end of last week it began to ramp its way up.

On Friday, there was a Golden Cross of the 50DMA over the 200DMA, and PVSP traded as high as .0009, which marks a rapid jump of 800% over our recently observed low. In order for us to remain interested in this play, it will need to maintain support at or above .0005 on any pullbacks.


Direxion Daily Jr Gld Mnrs Bear 3X ETF (JDST)

JDST made a modest yet notable move on Friday as well., This one also appeared on our extended watchlist, and we were pleased with its steady uptrend that lastedĀ  throughout most of the morning.

From an initial low of 11.40, the stock pushed its way to 12.60, a gain of 12%

Being a gold miners bear ETF, JDST saw this increase as the release of healthy jobs numbers and the Dollar at an 11-year high coincided closely with gold nearing a three-month low.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: New Options Idea & More

Vivint Solar, Inc. VSLR – Options Idea

VSLR caught our eye yesterday as the stock made considerable progress in coming off of a recent bottom, aided by Q4 financials announced Wednesday, post-market which came in better-than-expected.

In the midst of this rebound, we’ll be looking to possibly take advantage via the options chain. Currently, we’re interested in following the activity on the April 17th $11 Calls (Last Trade:1.30).

VSLR has a 1-year analyst estimated price target of 19.80, and is presently trading well below that range, thus it could turn out to be a stock that we continue to track over an extended period of time.


AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc. AVEO

We’re watching AVEO this morning; the stock broke above its 200DMA earlier this week and has been holding support above that level. Yesterday it underwent a gap-and-fade, ultimately finding support at 1.36. and that’s the level we’ll want to see it maintain on any further pullbacks today.

The main thing drawing our attention toward AVEO is the current chart setup.As you can see on the snapshot below, it is showing a strong RSI, a bullish MACD, and appears to be building toward an elusive Golden Cross; a relatively rare event for which we’re always keeping our eyes peeled.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: JDST, CNET, TTMI & More

Direxion Daily Jr Gld Mnrs Bear 3X ETF (JDST)

JDST, for those of you who may not be familiar, is a bear index for gold, which has been taking a pounding over the past couple of months, as world economies have seen a general pickup.

Many analysts are predicting a protracted bearish run from the precious metal, for instance Goldman Sachs has forecast gold to decline to $1,050 an ounce this year. Still others believe a trip to sub-$1000/oz prices is in the cards.

Should gold continue its downtrend, JDST is one way to leverage against that, so we’re going to have this index on our radar from this point forward. It could stand to see further increases while investors are turning to other classes of assets which are currently boasting healthier returns.


TTM Technologies, Inc. TTMIĀ 

TTMI is hitting our scanners this morning as a potential bottom play. The stock made a run toward the end of Thursday’s session, and spent the day Friday under general consolidation where it came down to bounce off of support at 7.28 in the last hour of trading.

We’ll be keeping an eye in the activity here today, on the heels of this morning’s news of an acquisition that will make the company one of the world’s leading manufacturers of printed circuit boards.

COSTA MESA, Calif. and ST. LOUIS, Sept. 22, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TTM Technologies, Inc. (TTMI) (“TTM”) and Viasystems Group, Inc. (VIAS) (“Viasystems”) today announced the execution of a definitive agreement under which TTM will acquire all outstanding shares of Viasystems >>> FULL PR



ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. CNET

Another stock that popped up during this morning’s scan falls more under the category of a momentum play; CNET made a big move on Friday, and from the looks of things we should be on the lookout for some of that activity to carry over into this week. The stock is presently gapping up in the premarket, and as always when we see this scenario, we are open to the possibility of seeing a potential dip-and-rip on the chart.

The company also announced today that it had won recognition at yesterday’s Chinese eCommerce Industry Gateway Conference in Beijing:

BEIJING, Sept. 22, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ChinaNet Online Holdings, Inc. (CNET) (“ChinaNet” or the “Company”), a leading B2B (business to business) Internet technology company providing online-to-offline (O2O) sales channel expansion services for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and entrepreneurial management and networking services for entrepreneurs in the People’s Republic of China, announced today that the company won the Best Company in Chinese Entrepreneurial SME Business Development Marketing at the 2014 Chinese e-Commerce Industry Gateway Conference. >>> FULL PR
