Bantek, Inc. BANT  – We had also recently signaled interest in BANT via our extended watchlist on June 1st. We’ve been including a lot more coverage of random OTC plays, and the success with those speculations has continued at a good pace.

Over the eight-session period that we’ve had it in our sights, BANT has traded up from a low of .0031, and went as high as .0085 yesterday. That’s an upswing amounting to 174%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PANW Pops & More

Palo Alto Networks, Inc. PANW

Fresh for yesterday’s morning report, we offered up an idea for the PANW chain, the PANW Weekly $215-222.50 Calls. With the aid of an excellent session for the markets as a whole, PANW went with the trend and produced enough intraday movement to provide us with significant single-session gain opportunities.

Here were the maximum possible gains that were on the table for the day, which were, quite frankly, very impressive:

$215 Calls – Range: .20-2.06 – Max Gain: 930%

PVH Corp. PVH

Our next order of business as we close out this holiday-shortened week is to provide further updates on PVH. We scored multi-bag gains with all three of our highlighted contracts,  the PVH 09/20 $75-85 Calls on Wednesday, and cautioned readers that more gains could be on the way in yesterday’s report.

That’s exactly what occurred, so this morning we are updating the highs on our ideas, which extend the total possible profits over a two-day span by a significant margin. 

$75 Calls – Range: 5.10-9.89 – Max Gain: 94%
$80 Calls – Range: 2.00-5.60 – Max Gain: 180%
$85 Calls – Range: .55-2.49 – Max Gain: 353%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Solid Runners

SOLID RUNNERS

We tagged both INSY and HSGX in yesterday morning’s premarket report, and both stocks produced admirable runs on the day. 

INSYS Therapeutics, Inc. INSY just registered its lowest price ever earlier this week, and we thought it would be worth it to track as a potential bottom-bounce play. The return was instantaneous. INSY opened at a low of .32 before running as high as .74, which marks an intraday pop of 131%

There is still a huge gap to the topside on the chart, so we’ll definitely continue to monitor the activity on INSY in the days and weeks ahead.
_____

Histogenics Corp. HSGX was also a solid mover for us on the day yesterday. This stock has traded mostly flat for the whole of 2019 so far, but it looks like we tagged it as a bottom play at an opportune moment.

From a low of .24 it reached .32 for a respectable 33% gain, but this could just be the beginning. We’ll want to continue tracking this play as well.
