Blue Horseshoe Stocks: LAKE Recap & More

Lakeland Industries, Inc. LAKE

Yesterday’s report turned up another premium opportunity for us to take advantage of a big intraday move. LAKE produced the largest percentage gain on the NASDAQ, starting out in the morning at a low of 10.32, and pressing upward all day long, hitting its high of 13.68 just prior to the closing bell. That equates to a strong 32% increase, and it came on more than twice the 3-month average volume.

LAKE is probably going to be a stock that we’ll want to monitor into the new year, following the recent revelation that the company would be releasing its Q3 financials on December 10th, which are expected to include increased sales to the tune of +15%  We’ve been made aware that those numbers will not reflect international sales or impact from Ebola-related orders which are expected to be realized in fiscal Q4 2015 (period ending 01/31/15) >> Read PR

Options-Trading Side Note:

We want to give ourselves a pat on the back for accurately determining how to approach PBR this week. Just to give a quick rundown; we outlined the PBR January 17th $10 and $11 Calls in Monday’s report. We watched as they dipped back and gave us a good chance for a discounted entry, and in yesterday’s premarket report, stated that we’d attempt to reap our profits on the gap-up that was in progress.

From the lows we observed Monday, ($10: 1.16, $11: .67) we were able to achieve significant gains at yesterday’s early highs. The $10 Calls ran as high as 1.57 (+35%) and the $11 Calls saw the 1.00-mark (+49%).

There’s still plenty of time before these contracts expire, so there’s a good chance that we’ll be able to realize further opportunities down the road from the PBR 01/17 $10 and $11 Calls.

Let us take this opportunity to wish all of our members a safe and happy holiday, and we’ll see everyone for a half-session on Friday.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Update on AEMD & More

Aethlon Medical, Inc. AEMD

Yesterday’s standout play was AEMD, a stock that we’ve been tracking since October 14th. Following that initial alert, we observed a low of .20 in AEMD, and after trading sideways for the remainder of last month, the stock has been gaining ground steadily over the past few weeks.

We re-flagged it in yesterday’s extended watchlist and witnessed a 27% intraday run from .562-.717 on approximately 10X the 3-month average trading volume. At its high mark of .717, AEMD was showing us an increase of 258% over the lows we observed barely a month ago.

The event that prompted us to originally begin following AEMD was during the height of the Ebola scare, when the company announced that its “Hemopurifier” blood-cleansing system was to be used to treat an Ebola patient overseas. This morning, we ‘re getting word that the patient (who was experiencing multiple organ failure at the time the treatment was administered) has now been discharged from the hospital. >>> FULL PR

It will be interesting to see the effect this news has on AEMD as we approach the holiday hiatus, which shortens this to a 3½ day trading week.

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR -Options

PBR is gapping up again this morning, in the wake of yesterday’s announcement that its ‘Cidade de Ilhabela’ offshore oil platform had been brought online. (Read our comments on the company’s situation in yesterday’s report if you missed it)

Anyone who caught yesterday’s morning report will recall our options-trading targets; we were considering the Jan 17th $10 and $11 Calls. The gap-and-fade that followed provided us a good opportunity to snap up some discounted contracts, and we’ll be looking to lock in some profits on the gap-up we’re seeing this morning.

SinoCoking Coal and Coke Chemical Industries, Inc. SCOK

Another play that we’ve been monitoring for some time is SCOK, which we’ll want to watch closely today on the heels of a notable PR released this morning. According to SCOK, the syngas plant that it recently opened in China is now operating at 100% capacity and pulling more than $80K worth of syngas from the Earth per day.

We actually began tracking SCOK the morning it announced its intent to open the facility, (it ran hard that day from 3.35-9.37, +180%) so this morning’s PR regarding the plant acheiving full operational status brings us full circle with SCOK.

PINGDINGSHAN, China, Nov. 25, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SinoCoking Coal and Coke Chemical Industries, Inc. (SCOK), a producer of clean energy products located in Henan Province, today announced that its above ground facility for the conversion of carbon dioxide into clean-burning syngas has achieved its initial production target of 25,000 cubic meters per hour and is currently transporting syngas to three customers and agents in and around its facility in Pingdingshan.

Based on the current price of $0.139 per cubic meter for syngas, the gross revenue generated per day by the aboveground facility is approximately $83,280. Gross profit margin is expected to be between 45% and 50%. >> FULL PR

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Trading Ideas & More

Running Options Trading Idea – PBR

We keep going back to the well that is the PBR options chain, and almost never come up empty-handed. Just to recap this week’s action, we targeted the PBR November $16 Calls on Tuesday morning, and were promptly rewarded with an 35% intraday spike.

On Wednesday, we commented on the real possibility of seeing more action in PBR options as the stock pulled back and rebounded, and it only took until yesterday’s session to see that prediction met.

For the second time this week PBR breached the $17-mark, and as a result, the $16 Weekly Calls traded from .86 to 1.20, an intraday increase totaling 39%

Movers From Yesterday’s Watchlist

First Liberty Power Corp. FLPC
FLPC made a notable move right at the start of the session yesterday morning, opening up at .002 and rapidly running to .0027. That marked a quick chance at up to 35% in gains.

iHookup Social, Inc. HKUP
We also tagged HKUP, and the stock would provide a series of intraday swings of which one could have taken advantage; the two main thrusts were from .006-.0072 (+20%), and .0062 to .0069 (11%).

Added Notes:

The overall markets took a pounding yesterday, and after a contrary performance by TSLA which managed a positive move, the stock is pulling back today to a premarket low of 240.56. As long as support holds at that range, we’ll be expecting to see a bounce. If that proves to be the case, we’ll need to identify a proper options trading target.

Likewise, we’re looking for an upcoming bounce on the SPY which got drudged down along with the market yesterday. We may have an interest in trading SPY Calls, and should be ready for a rebound to come at any time.

SPIR (On Bottom-Watch)
We want to quickly make a note of SPIR as well. The stock fell to new 52-week lows yesterday; we always like to monitor plays like these for potential bottom bounces.
