Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AAPL Update & More

Apple Inc. AAPL – Options

We once again found a way to leverage AAPL’s current uptrend to our advantage yesterday using the options chain. Just to refresh people’s memories, the idea we highlighted in our premarket report was to monitor Weekly Calls in the $130-132 range.

As AAPL pressed to a daily high of $133.13 we saw significant action in both the $131 and $132 Calls. The $131’s dipped as low as 3.60 before running to a subsequent high of 4.50, for an intraday move equaling 25%, and the $132’s made a nice spike from 3.10-3.88; also a 25% swing.


Pazoo, Inc. PZOO

We also want to mention the performance of PZOO which surged to a new high of .0204 yesterday. In the video charts we’ve published on PZOO over the past couple of trading days, we mentioned that the 200DMA of .0204 should act as key resistance, and that’s where yesterday’s intraday run topped out. From a morning low of .0177, it marked a 15% jump.

From our observed low of .0049 on April 6th, PZOO’s new high marked an overall increase of 316% We stated this week that we want to see the stock maintain support in the channel between .011-.014, and that remains true today.

Any way you slice it, PZOO has performed admirably in the month of April.



Netlist, inc. NLST

Hitting our scanner this morning is a stock that has been in a steady downtrend for quite some time, which is gapping up in the premarket on the heels of an early PR linking the company to LG Electronics.

NLST has spent the better part of the last three months bottoming out, and the stock just set a new 52-week low yesterday. This is exactly the type of play that we like to monitor, as it gets kicked up off of annual lows.



Other Notable Gainers From Yesterday’s Watchlist

We’d also like to highlight two other plays that appeared in yesterday’s premarket report that provided opportunities for our readers.

SYMX traded in a daily range from 1.65-2.10, an increase of 27%

CANF rose from a low of 2.61 to hit 3.57; an intraday move of 37%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: FRO Review & More

Frontline Ltd. FRO

FRO has definitely turned out to be one of our biggest success stories of the past several weeks. Just to refresh people’s memories, we caught this play coming off of some of its lowest prices of the year back on December 1st. Our observed low on FRO was 1.33 at that time, and in two huge upward moves the stock has traversed quite a bit of territory since then.

Yesterday FRO achieved a high of 5.05, which marks a total increase of 280% in just under six weeks! As we did after the initial push, we could now see a possible dip-and-rip scenario. We’ll remain interested provided the stock maintains support at or above the $3-area on the pullback.

As we can see on the chart above, there is a potential Golden Cross in the making, and with tens of millions of barrels of crude to be held on tankers over the next few months given the current oil landscape, this may not be the last time we point to big moves from FRO.

BARCHART.COM is currently giving FRO a “100% Buy” rating.


Twitter, Inc. TWTR – Options

Following up on one of the options ideas we were mulling over on TWTR last week; the TWTR February $40 Calls. When we first mentioned them last Wednesday (Saw a low of 2.15), we mentioned that they “could be in line for significant gains if TWTR continues to recover off of recent lows” and we did in fact see some substantial movement.

Those Feb. $40’s hit a high of 3.70 during the day yesterday, for an overall increase of 72% in a span of just four sessions! Even further gains could be forthcoming provided TWTR continues the current trend, so we’ll want to reserve it a slot on our watchlist as we head into mid-week.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: TWTR Options & More

Twitter, Inc. TWTR – Options Ideas

Toward the end of 2014, TWTR underwent a bit of a downturn on the heels of some insider selling and the general sluggishness of the market. The stock was beaten back into the low $35-range, and over the past couple of sessions it has done a good job of rebounding back to its highest level since the end of November. Our interest in TWTR relates specifically to the options chain, as we’ll look to take advantage of the recovery trend that’s currently in effect.

In particular the $38 (Closed @ 1.32) and $39 (Closed @ .83) Weekly Calls are catching our eye for a day-trading idea today. There is key resistance on the chart at the 50DMA 39.35, and in the premarket so far we’ve already seen trades as high as 39.60.  Therefore, we’re watching for some early morning profit taking followed by a rally, where those contracts may provide some intraday trading opportunities later in the day.

For more of a long-term swing-trade idea, we can monitor the February $40 Calls (Closed @ 2.70).



Frontline Ltd. FRO

FRO made a nice move for us after appearing in yesterday morning’s report; the stock traded in a daily range from 2.83 to 3.27 (+15%), and did so on healthy volume to the tune of roughly 9X the 3-month average. We continue to watch FRO this morning as it gaps up in the premarket, with trades already having gone off as high as 3.61, which represents an overall increase of 28% over yesterday’s observed low.

As noted in an article on The Street, some bullish comments made about FRO on CNBC yesterday could be partly responsible for the strong session.
