Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MBHC Update & More

Mobile Broadcasting Holding, Inc. MBHC

Our regulars will remember our coverage of MBHC from last month, We put the stock on our radars beginning on July 20th and tracked it to a really nice initial run from .0041-.0096 (+134%). Since then the stock consolidated a bit, and for the past few weeks, has been trading in a relatively narrow channel from around .0045-.0065, holding support off of its 50DMA the whole way.

At the time of our active coverage of MBHC, we were looking forward to the launch of the company’s mobile, real-time video broadcasting platform, known as the Whirld app. BETA testing has been underway, and this morning, we’ve received another update on the tentative date of the official launch, so we thought it would be a good time to begin monitoring the stock again.

When we find a play that’s capable of making double-bag gains in as rapid a fashion as MBHC did last month, we definitely want to keep our ears to the tracks. The new expected date of launch we can infer from this morning’s PR will be two weeks from this Friday. >> READ PR


Deere & Co. DE

Our options idea for DE worked like a charm on Friday. Subdued Q4 guidance and a 40% drop in profits led us to track the action in the DE $87-84 Puts. It wouldn’t have mattered which strike price traders chose to exercise, chances for monster gains were available across the board in every set of contracts in our target range. Here’s a breakdown of the possibilities:

$84 Puts – Daily Range: .30-.1.25  – Max Gain: 316%
$84.50 Puts – Daily Range: .44-2.08 – Max Gain: 372%
$85 Puts – Daily Range: .37-3.05 – Max Gain: 724%
$85.50 Puts – Daily Range: .87-2.38 – Max Gain: 174%
$86 Puts
– Daily Range: .75-3.64 – Max Gain: 385%
$86.50 Puts
– Daily Range: 1.15-4.01 – Max Gain: 249%

The stock is gapping down heavily this morning, so we’ll continue to watch Put contracts in the DE options chain with strike prices close to the money. In the event of a continued PPS decline, we could still see some good opportunities on the bearish side of the fence.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MIXX Review, Options Ideas & More

Mix 1 Life, Inc. MIXX

To kick the week off on Monday morning, we highlighted a couple of fresh news bottom plays, and MIXX was among them. If you refer to that premarket report, we stated that MIXX was  “piquing our interest with a premarket PR and its positioning on the chart as a good bottom-watch candidate. The stock has fallen dramatically to new 52-week lows, and is looking extremely oversold… we’re going to slate this one for observation as the potential recovery could produce some serious chances for profit.”

We honestly couldn’t have been more right about MIXX seeming out of place at such low price, and that impression of the chart led us to the chance for some serious profits. Yesterday’s trading range brought the stock from a low of .98 all the way up to 3.15, which marks an intraday jump of 221%

This play served as yet another added reminder of why we are constantly scanning for stocks which have been crushed down to new annual lows without significant material changes. It is often a precursor to hefty rebounds like the one MIXX has produced this week.



Mobile Broadcasting Holding, Inc. MBHC

Speaking of intraweek swings, MBHC has continued to make a comparatively modest yet still significant move of its own off of its recent swing low of .0042. Yesterday the stock pushed its way back to a high of .0069, an overall positive change of 64%

It came in conjunction with a press announcement highlighting the appointment of a new CEO who will be navigating the company through the upcoming launch of the company’s new app to both Apple and Android markets. The timeline given in a prior press release from MBHC has the official release coming up later this month.

PISCATAWAY TOWNS, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / August 4, 2015 / Mobile Broadcasting Corporation, (OTC PINK: MBHC) Mobile Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) announced today that Darryl M. Sanders will be taking the reigns as President and CEO of MBHC. He will lead the company’s public launch of the WHIRLD Mobile Broadcasting Network >> FULL PR


Options Ideas

We’ve had strikingly good fortune with options recently, so here are a couple of fresh ideas that we’re going to be monitoring today. We’re going to give a wide target range for each of them. Be aware that when we signal wider ranges of call contracts it’s always less risky to start at the lower strike price, (i.e. deeper in-the-money) and roll up our strike price if the stock looks like it wants to continue to break out. We’ve identified many winning contracts in the past using this broad-sweep monitoring method.

Zillow Group, Inc. (Z) – Here we are going to be slating the Z Weekly $77-82 Calls for observation.

First Solar, Inc. FSLR – For FSLR our target range looks to be the Weekly $47-50.50 Calls.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Friday Recap & New Interests

Recapping Friday’s Interests

Friday’s session bore some nice opportunities among the plays we were discussing in our premarket report, from both options and stocks.

Our top options target turned out to be Expedia, Inc. EXPE, in which we were tracking the Weekly $115-117 Calls. Every one of the contracts in that range produced chances for multi-bag gains:

$115 Calls – Daily Range: 1.12-5.04 – Max Gain: 350%
$116 Calls – Daily Range: 1.32-6.40 – Max Gain: 385%
$117 Calls – Daily Range: .87-4.12 – Max Gain: 374%

On the stock side of things, we were observing Hutchinson Technology, Inc. HTCH which had caught our eye on a routine premarket scan for abnormal activity. The stock responded with a solid session to close out the week, trading from a low of 1.60, and reaching as high as 1.95; a respectable 22% intraday move.
___

We also wanted to say a quick word about Wizard World, Inc. WIZD, which we called as a potential bottom-play after noticing the stock tumbling to new 52-wk lows. The stock managed to make a nominal 18% intraday jump off of that bottom, so we’ll watch for the possibility of a protracted recovery. We’ll look for WIZD to continue to register higher lows.


Mobile Broadcasting Holding, Inc. MBHC

MBHC responded well to Friday’s news regarding the findings of beta testing on its upcoming app (View PR), as it continued to build a higher base of support off of the .0042 swing-low that it recorded last Tuesday.

We watched the stock trade in a range from .0052 to .006 (+15%), and that high marked an overall four-session move of 43%  It drew back slightly to close at .0057, the point from which we’ll look to see it continue to log higher lows as we commence a new trading week.

We’ve prepared a video highlighting the key points of the MBHC chart:
