Big Options Gainers, New Earnings Plays

Huge SPY Gains & More: 

Yesterday’s trading session was one of extremes. The markets gapped up before dipping early, and running into the Fed meeting, after which there was another precipitous drop-off followed by a late day run into the close. It was a choppy and exciting session, and that late rally pushed the SPY Calls we highlighted in our premarket report to some major league moves.

Those potential plays were the SPY 01/04 $382-383 Calls, and we got some decent intraday push from our other set of targets, the SGH 01/20 $15-17.50 Calls as well. Here were the intraday ranges and total possible gains to be had for both ideas, as well as some new highs on the PLAY 01/20 $35-36 Calls we’ve been on since December 20th:

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Multiple Updates

JB Hunt Transport Services, Inc. JBHT

The most interesting options trading candidate we are seeing from the pool of un-traded upon earnings reporters is JBHT, which dropped an extremely solid quarterly in the post-market yesterday. The company beat on earnings, year-over-year revenue, and bested expectations on guidance as well.

We are going to track a pair of contracts, the JBHT Weekly $95-100 Calls to try to take advantage of the resulting activity.

CORRECTION: Reviewing Friday’s Winners:

Yesterday, through a small error, our newsletters went out without the proper figures for our options ideas on Friday. Here are the correct gain totals.

SPDR S&P500 (ETF) SPY Weekly $299-300 Calls
$299 Calls – Range: .67-1.75 – Max Gain: 161%
$299.50 Calls – Range: .34-1.20 – Max Gain: 252%

American Electric Technologies, Inc. AETI

We try to keep running tabs on everything we mention in our daily reports, and in AETI we have a stock that we tagged for observation at the end of May. In the seven ensuing weeks, the stock has more than doubled.

We observed a low of .60 in AETI subsequent to our initial alert and the stock managed to register a new high of 1.45. That works out to an overall rise of 142% and was good for the #2 spot on the NASDAQ gainers list for the day. If it can break previous resistance at 1.61, it will officially be in blue sky territory.


Tautachrome, Inc. TTCM

Our OTC play from yesterday morning was indeed a runner. The stock made an intraday move from a low of .0103-.0197, which marks a 91% gain on what amounted to more than five times the monthly average daily volume.

The extreme volatility here, like the options plays we select, is what makes this attractive to us as short-term traders. We’ll continue to keep an eye on TTCM for any other possible swing trade opportunities.


Taronis Technologies, Inc. TRNX

One we’ve been watching since Monday of last week is TRNX, which was trading for as little as .1832 following our most recent update.

It trended up to and closed at a high of .35 yesterday, and so far in the premarket this morning it has reached as high as .53. That’s an incredible swing of 189% inside of a week! We’ll want to see previous resistance at the 50DMA to hold as support on any pullbacks.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: INMG Recap & More

Innovativ Media Group, Inc. INMG

On Wednesday, just a day following news that the company had acquired a property in the cannabis space, INMG impressed by running 195% from .0019 to .0056. Participants in our daily live trader’s chat had a chance to get in on those gains, as we were mentioning in Thursday’s premarket report.*

But the party was only just getting started, and Thursday’s session proved to be every bit as exhilarating. INMG traded up from its morning low of .005, and managed to crack through the penny barrier to reach a high of .012 on the day. That was good for another multi-bag intraday move of 140% and extended our total two-session observed range on INMG to a walloping 532%

The move came on more than nine times the 30-day average volume, and the stock held a penny into the close, maintaining well over half of its daily advance, so we’ll be very interested to see how that head of steam transfers to this new trading week after a three-day weekend.

4/20 Cannabis Watchlist

We’re heading into 4/20 week, with the holiday coming up on Thursday. For the uninitiated, 4/20 (“Four-Twenty”) has been a marijuana counter-culture holiday for decades, and in recent years as the legal cannabis space has really taken off, it has been taken to a new level through viral marketing events, festivals, celebrations, and targeted ad campaigns.

We would expect the frequency of press releases (and with them, increased visibility) from companies operating in or around the space to rise over the course of this week. We would also expect subsequent heightened activity in many cannabis stocks. 

In accordance with these expectations, we’ll put the many cannabis stocks we track on a routine basis on even closer watch. Stocks like CBIS, OWCP, RMHB, SGDH, TRTC, and more, will be high on our watchlist this week.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Updates on Recent Interests

MMEX Resources Corp. MMEX

Just to give a quick recap of our timeline of events with MMEX- We stated our continued interest in MMEX on Friday, after re-tagging it in Thursday’s premarket report allowed for the chance at some very nice gains. (.0081-.0169, +108%). That was only after our first alerting on the stock in the previous Friday’s report, while it was trading as low as .0046, so as of Friday morning, we had already witnessed a five-session overall swing of 267%

One might have thought the party was over at that point, in reality, it persisted in a big way. Friday’s trading activity brought an onslaught of buying pressure as volume surged and the PPS got another sizable boost. MMEX traded in an intraday range from .0163-.0289, an intraday rip of 77% That brings our total observed upswing on this play to 528% since March 22nd.


Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR – Update

We’ve been tracking the PBR 04/21 $9.50 & $10 Calls since the Friday before last, which brought us gains in the 180-200% range leading into Friday’s session.

Today we just want to provide the updates figures as those contracts underwent a dip-and-rip pattern that produced the following intraday opportunities on Friday.

04/21 $9.50 Calls – Range: .36-.52 – Max Gain: 44%
04/21 $10 Calls – Range: .18-.26 – Max Gain: 44%


U.S. Stem Cell, Inc. USRM

After inevitably cooling down off of the amazing 1180% (.014-.1793) run we witnessed between 02/27 and 03/28, USRM consolidated toward the end of last week, and on Friday make a pretty convincing reversal and rebound.

The stock traded up from a low of .0821 to .123 for a respectable intraday boost of 50% so we’ll want to hang around to see if the stock can chain together another solid session and maintain that recovery.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: This Week’s Big Runners

Marijuana Company of America, Inc. MCOA

As a part of our general focus on marijuana related stocks, we’ve been hot on the trail of MCOA, first bringing it into the mix early last month (at a low of .0094) and keeping it the conversation all through this week as its gains have gone exponential.

Leading into yesterday’s report, we had already witnessed a move of more than 500% and the stock followed that up with yet another stellar performance on the day. It traded up a solid 70% from a low of .072 to a new high of .1225.

That means that a stock we signaled for observation one month ago tomorrow, went from subpenny and smashed through the dime barrier, which definitely isn’t something you see every day! Neither is a twelve-bagger of any kind, yet the overall run we’ve seen from MCOA in four weeks now amounts to 1203%


Cannabics, Inc. CNBX

CNBX is of course another pot play that we jumped on early last month when we began heavily urging our readers to take heed of the second Green Rush that we’re currently experiencing, and we’ve stuck with it consistently. Subsequent to our report on October 5th we saw it trading for as little as .06, and the epic run it has mounted since then has taken it past the elusive dollar barrier!

Yesterday it posted another nice intraday move going from .75 to 1.12 (+52%) and measuring from that six-cent low, it equates to a remarkable overall run of 1766%


Medical Marijuana, Inc. MJNA

At this point there are so many huge performers in the cannabis space that it’s beginning to become difficult to keep up with all the winners, but we need to take a minute to update our readers on MJNA, which is a play we’ve followed for years.

Like many other pot stocks, it has enjoyed a huge rush of upward movement in recent weeks. We tagged it in our report on September 23rd, saw a low of .04, and yesterday, in a session with absolutely enormous dollar volume, it hit .23. A hefty 475% move has been the result, and as we keep saying, with elections coming in just a few days and medical and recreational marijuana on several ballots, all of these cannabis stocks could still stand to make big swings to the upside.



Galenfeha, Inc. GLFH

Speaking of multi-day runners, starting on Monday morning, we’ve been steadily tracking GLFH through what has been a series of solid daily increases that have amounted to a fairly impressive 3-day run.

As we’ve stated previously, GLFH is a low-volume, low-float play that doesn’t need a whole lot in the way of buying pressure to effect appreciable upward momentum, and we’ve certainly seen that dynamic exemplified.

Yesterday, the stock traded in a range from a low of .0429 on up to a new high of .057, for a daily advance of 33% and a total increase of 119% over our observed low from Monday (.026). In the event of a dip, we’d ideally like to see it maintain support at the 200DMA of .0498. Failing that, we’ll remain interested as long as it doesn’t fall below our witnessed low.
