Blue Horseshoe Stocks: News Plays & Special Reminder

Aeterna Zentaris, Inc. AEZS

AEZS is gapping up this morning on the heels of some news. It’s been quite a few months since we last mentioned this stock. That was back in the fall, and we subsequently witnessed quite a surge from the stock after that.

Since then, so far in 2017 the stock has come down to record new annual lows, and recently has been making incremental increases off of that bottom. In light of today’s news, described below, we think it’s a good time to put AEZS back on a more intensive watch.

The company announced this morning, following a comprehensive review Phase 3 clinical data on Macrilen™ for the evaluation of growth hormone deficiency, that Macrilen™ demonstrated performance supportive of achieving registration with the FDA. The FDA has agreed to consider the Company’s conclusions during a Type A meeting, which is currently being scheduled. (>>View PR)


Zosano Pharma Corp. ZSAN

Speaking of fresh news plays, we also want to highlight the announcement coming from ZSAN this morning that presently has the stock gapping up in the premarket to the tune of 50%

This morning ZSAN reported that in its ZOTRIP pivotal efficacy study, the company’s M207 transdermal migraine therapy patch met both primary, as well as secondary endpoints. It certainly explains the premarket hoopla, and warrants our observation as we kick off a new trading week.

The chart also has some attractive features which we’ve pointed out on the snapshot below:


**SPECIAL REMINDER**

To wrap things up this morning, we want to leave our readers with a quick heads up on a big Tuesday coming up. We’ve got a special report coming out tomorrow prior to the opening bell. It could represent quite an opportunity, so tomorrow is definitely not the day to miss out on our premarket report!

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AAPL Update & More

 Apple, Inc. AAPL – Options Recap

The current earnings season really kicked into high gear for us yesterday with our signal on AAPL. To go along with the activity we were observing in the premarket just formulated an options trading idea with the AAPL Weekly $125-127 Calls, and were ultimately met with chances for huge gains across the board.

Regardless of which strike price was chosen within that range, multi-bag gains were there for the taking:

$125 Calls – Range: 1.18-5.00 – Max Gain: 324%
$126 Calls – Range: 1.36-4.46 – Max Gain: 228%
$127 Calls – Range: .61-3.55 – Max Gain: 482%
$128 Calls – Range: .45-2.61 – Max Gain: 480%

We were obviously very pleased with our calls and the intraday opportunities they provided, and  have no problem simply walking away after such a bang-up session. That being said, we’ll go ahead and continue to track the activity over the remaining two sessions this week, just for good measure.

FRESH IDEA:

Facebook, Inc. FB – Continuing our ride on the earnings train, we’re going to signal a range of options in the FB chain on the heels of yesterday’s post-market earnings report.

Our target range today is going to be the FB Weekly $133-136 Calls.


Alkame Holdings, Inc. ALKM

Last week as we were following ALKM, mentioning it in all three reports from the 25th-27th, we witnessed a low of .0014. Yesterday, the stock broke out on mega-volume running to a high of .004 where it also closed, having traded 6X its 30-day average volume.

It worked out to a week-over-week increase of 186%  We’re also going to want to continue keeping tabs on ALKM after yesterday’s strong close.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Strong Start to the Short Week

Even during a time of relatively high uncertainty for the markets at large, and on a short trading week, which are often more subdued than a typical week, we still managed to suss out a wide range of interesting plays in yesterday’s premarket report. Therefore, the bulk of today’s offering will be comprised of performance updates.

ViaDerma, Inc. VDRM

VDRM turned out to be the crown jewel of yesterday’s report, undergoing a massive intraday run that offered up chances at huge single session gains. We initially tagged the stock before adjourning for the holiday weekend on Friday morning. and it responded with a pop from .0048 to .0087 (+81%).

We kept it in yesterday’s report, and that’s when it really kicked into high gear, trading in a range from .00845 to an incredible new high of .0242. That worked out to a single-session romp of 186% and extended our observed gains over a two-session swing from Friday to 404%

Congrats to any of our readers who were able to hitch a ride on this wild breakout!


mCig, Inc. MCIG

As we reminded readers yesterday, MCIG was among those stocks we mentioned in our first report of 2017, subsequent to which, we would observe a low of .1599.  We then saw two weeks of a notable uptrend which brought us to yesterday’s session.

Despite already having attained a new all-time high on Friday, MCIG kept the train rolling with a solid intraday performance leading to another new high. The stock traded in a range from .388 on up to .505, a 30% push which occurred on roughly 5x the monthly average volume.

The bullish move extended our overall observed range on MCIG in just over two weeks to a whopping 216%  Any further moves from here would just be icing on the cake, but we’ll want to leave MCIG on our radar screens because a dip-and-rip pattern could be forthcoming before the week is through.


Retractable Technologies, Inc. RVP

The posting of a Form-4 filing last week, along with its positioning on the chart is what led us to focus upon RVP as a “prime bottom-play” in yesterday’s premarket report.

We were correct in doing so, timing the bottom precisely as RVP went on to rebound, trading in a range from .94 to 1.16. While that works out to a modest increase of just 23%, RVP did close just slightly below that high of day, and this morning has reached as high as 1.18. We’ll be very interest to continue tracking its activity, looking for the recording of higher highs and higher lows en route to a sustained uptrend.


PureSnax International, Inc. PSNX

Also appearing in yesterday’s newsletter was PSNX, a subpenny play which also enjoyed a sizable PPS increase on heavy volume.

The stock traded in a range from  .00239 to .0035, an intraday gain of 46%, with more than 11x the monthly average volume of shares changing hands. The price tapered slightly into a close at .0028, but provided the stock maintains support above yesterday’s swing low, we’ll remain interested in PSNX.


Delcath Systems, Inc. DCTH

We also want to quickly point out what may very well be another prime bottom-play setup for DCTH. We’ve annotated the chart snapshot below to illustrate why we’ll be tracking this one as well as we head through midweek.
