Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Week Kicks Off on High Note


Yesterday, despite the fact that the markets as a whole were on pace for the longest sustained backslide in more than half a decade, we still managed to see new highs in a few of the stocks we’ve been tracking.  We also observed solid intraday performances from a couple other plays that were on our morning watchlist, so we’ll begin today with a quick roundup of all these movers.

Dolat Ventures, Inc. DOLV

We signaled our interest in tracking DOLV in Thursday’s report, and at the time we’d witness the stock trading at a low of .0056.

Yesterday concluded with a new high, and the recording of three straight bullish sessions since then, with DOLV trading in an intraday range from .0125 to .019, for a gain of 52% It brings the updated figure on the three session swing we’ve seen so far to an impressive 239%

MyDx, Inc. MYDX

We circled back to MYDX, a stock we’ve tracked all the way from a February low of .001, last Wednesday, while it was trading as low as .0077. It too has put together a multi-day run leading to impressive new highs once again yesterday.

The stock saw a daily range of .017-.0226, which represents an increase of 32% on the day, 193% from last Wednesday’s low, and a ridiculous 2160% from our witnessed low in February!

U.S. Stem Cell, Inc. USRM

Here’s another stock whose low (.014) came during the month of February, following our report on the 27th. We’ve been all over it since then , and in two sustained bursts it has absolutely soared.

After reminding our readers of that fact in yesterday’s premarket report, USRM managed to hit yet another new high for us. It traded from .07-.112 for a daily boost of 60% and the new high recorded pushed our overall observed gain on this play in just one months time to an even 700%

Honorable Mentions

We placed a couple of plays in yesterday’s extended watchlist that didn’t blow our minds by any stretch of the imagination, but did log some solid intraday increases that warrant continued observation for each of them.

Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. CPRX
Daily Range: 1.63-2.07 – Max Gain: 27%

Impax Laboratories, Inc. IPXL
Daily Range: 10.50-13.00 – Max Gain: 24%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: RSHCQ Recap, FLSR, PEP Options & More


RadioShack Corp. RSHCQ
–
Our close coverage of RSHCQ has really come through for us as the stock performed very well on Monday and then again yesterday. Our initial alert came at a low of .1251 on Monday morning.

Yesterday the stock made its way up from a daily low of .1461 all the way up to .2145. That was an intraday spike equaling 47%, and measuring from Monday’s low, an overnight increase of 71% so cheers go out to any of our readers who were following this play to some fantastic short-term gains!

As we stated in our previous reports, we plan to keep a close eye on Radio Shack as the company deals with the many complexities of Chapter 11.

New Options Ideas

PepsiCo, Inc. PEP 

In the spirit of taking as much advantage of the current earnings season as possible, we have continued to scour for potential options trading opportunities on earnings beats. PEP is standing out on our radar screen this morning, with Wall St. expectations having been exceeded.

PEP is showing a healthy chart currently in an ascending wedge pattern, and the stock is in the process of breaking all-time highs so we’re also entering blue-sky territory with this one.

Along with its Q4 figures, Pepsi also revealed that it would be initiating a share buyback program to run through 2018 where the company intends to buy back up to $12B of its own stock, which bodes well for the long-term health of the beverage and snack giant. >> View PR

To potentially take advantage of the current conditions with PEP, we’re going to be looking at Calls in the $99-100 range. Yesterday the $99’s closed at .62, the $99.50’s at .46, and the $100’s at .33. After what we expect will be a significant gap-up followed by some measure of profit-taking we will be looking to get ourselves positioned for what could be a strong rebound in those contracts.

We can also keep watch over the Feb. 20th $102 Calls (Last Trade: .23) for a potential swing-trade into next week.

First Solar, Inc. FSLR

Yesterday upon receiving word that Apple, Inc. had negotiated a solar deal with FSLR worth nearly $850M, FSLR went crazy, running into the close and continuing to climb in after-market trading as well as gapping up in today’s premarket action.

As a result of these circumstances, we’re going to be monitoring the FSLR $48 Weekly Calls (Closed 1.51) for what has the potential to be a very nice, rapid gain opportunity.

Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. BABA – Reminder

We also want to take a minute to reiterate our longer-term options strategy regarding BABA.  Yesterday we outlined the March 20th $95 Calls (Closed: .85)  We could see those open a bit higher today as BABA is looking like it wants to gap up to slightly this morning.
