Blue Horseshoe Stocks: New Play, Updates & Extended Watchlist

Solar Wind Energy Tower, Inc. SWET

We’ve got a new item of interest in the penny arena to start things off this morning. Following a major run back in April, SWET has consolidated, and has been generally trading sideways ever since. We like the look of the chart, and feel that conditions are coming to a point where things could get interesting.

As you can see on the chart below, the RSI has held in there above the 50-line, there’s been a recent Golden Cross of the 50DMA over the 200DMA, and the MACD appears ready to start turning to the bullish side. It may not be too long before we see a pop out of this thing, so we’ll keep an eye peeled for that.

We also got word this morning that the company will be presenting at a prestigious investment banking conference at the beginning of next week:

ANNAPOLIS, MD, Jun 13, 2014 (Marketwired via COMTEX) — Solar Wind Energy Tower, Inc. (OTCQB: SWET) (the “Company”), the inventor of large Solar Wind Downdraft Tower structures capable of producing abundant, inexpensive electricity, announced that management will present at the National Investment Banking Association (NIBA) Conference to be held on June 16-18, 2014 at the Roosevelt Hotel in New York, NY.The NIBA Conference will give Solar Wind Energy Tower, Inc. access to a large audience at one time. NIBA’s membership is vast and multinational, and representing over 8,800 registered reps with an estimated $78B in assets under management. >>> FULL PR

Global Gaming Network, Inc. GBGM

With the vast array of stocks that we’re tracking all the time, it isn’t too much of a surprise when one of them perks up its head and regenerates our interest. Such was the case with GBGM yesterday; the last time we made mention of this stock in our daily reports was back on May 1st. At the time, we were monitoring the play for a bottom, which took the better part of the next month to reach.

GBGM touched down and found support at .0008 recently, and yesterday the sleeping giant was finally awakened as the company announced that it had retired 50 million shares of common stock, thereby reducing the number of outstanding shares 6%. What resulted was a significant upswing that took the stock as high as .0021 and generated gains of up to 162% for anyone that caught the bottom.


Options Ideas

OpenTable, Inc. OPEN

OPEN is gapping up tremendously this morning on news that the company is to be acquired by The Priceline Group. In situations like these, we like to monitor these high-flyers for subsequent dip-and-rip scenarios. Specifically regarding the options chain, when a strong move like this is properly utilized, it can spell big gains for those playing the Call side.

When something of this magnitude occurs, it can also create a sector-wide ripple effect, so we may also want to track stocks like LIVE, YELP, GRUB, and of course, PCLN.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PBR Update & More

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR When we touched base with PBR on Wednesday morning, we mentioned that we were expecting some opportunities to come our way provided that the stock could hold support at or above its 200DMA (13.69).

We also showed interest in the July 19th $15 Calls, which, leading up to that point, had been trading in the .30-.38 range, and even ventured so far as to say that a double or triple could be possible. That move came rather quickly over the remainder of the trading week, as those contracts dipped as low as .25, and by the end of the day on Friday had come all the way back to close at .61.

For us, that represented an excellent three-session move, allowing gains of up to 144% for options traders. The stock itself made a modest move up also, to the tune of 8% from 13.62 to 14.77.

The PBR chart is still looking quite ripe, with several bullish indicators catching our attention. The RSI is strengthening rapidly, there appears to be a MACD cross in the making, and provided the stock can maintain support at or above the channel between the 50DMA of 14.19 and Friday’s swing low of 14.32, we like the chances of seeing even more gains from PBR.

For intraday/intraweek flip opportunities, we can look into the $14-$15 Weekly Calls, but granted the overall trend continues, a longer-term play will continue to be the 07/19 $15’s, which as we said, have already afforded us a double-bagger.


Shamika 2 Gold, Inc. SHMX

On Thursday, we added SHMX to the mix as a sub-penny play that had struck us as having some potential. As with the majority of stocks trading in the triple-zero range, SHMX is susceptible to rapid swings in price, and we saw that first hand as we closed out the week. On Friday, the stock saw a low of .0003, and a subsequent upswing to its closing price of .0005.

That made it possible for traders to nab a quick profit of 67%  We always want to be extremely cautious when dealing with volatile plays in this price range, as they are not for the faint-hearted. Quick-strike trades are the order of the day, and for more skilled traders, proper timing of each dip and rip can lead to gains really piling up.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ISRG, ANAS & Extended Watchlist

Inuitive Surgical, Inc. ISRG
We’ve got a couple new plays to watch this morning, starting with ISRG, a big-board stock that has us interested in its options chain for potential gains over the next several weeks.

Resistance is sitting at 399.12 (200DMA), a break of which could fill that first gap on the chart. A subsequent break of the 50DMA at 430.27 would mean the likely filling of the second chart gap, which could take it clear to the $480-range.

As a result of current chart conditions, we’re going to radar the June 6th $400 Calls. Those contracts were trading at 3.30 yesterday, and could potentially turn in multi-bag gains provided the stock breaks the areas of resistance we just mentioned. Again, this will be a play that we monitor for an extended time period.


Alternaturals, Inc. ANAS

ANAS popped up on our scanner this morning, and we figured we’d put it on people’s radars in light of several factors. For starters, the news out this morning alludes to forthcoming share reduction efforts by the company, wherein they promise not to use a reverse split as they attempt to clean up the share structure.

The PR goes on to state the company’s intent to move forward, either through an eventual exchange uplisting or potential buyout scenario. Those are interesting claims, and we’ll be anxious to follow this storyline to see if management makes good on those aspirations.

We’re going to be monitoring ANAS as it searches for support, and putting this play on bottom watch. The stock has been under consolidation since a recent run-up, so we’ll be looking to take advantage of any forthcoming bounceplay opportunities.

GRANDVILLE, Mich., May 6, 2014 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — Alternaturals, Inc. (OTCPink : ANAS) today announced that it has plans to begin buying back shares in the open market in order to increase shareholder value and position the company as either a favorable acquisition target, or for listing on a reporting market in the future.
