Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ICLD, XGTI Recaps & More

InterCloud Systems, Inc. ICLD

ICLD stood out as a solid mover from yesterday’s premarket report. From a morning low of 3.01, the stock made an authoritative move on up to a high of 4.30 just prior to the closing bell.  That represents an increase of 43% on heavy volume to the tune of nearly 38X the three-month average. That figure has been extended to 46%  in the premarket today with the stock touching a high of 4.40 so far.

We’ll want to monitor ICLD for a sustained run; if it can manage higher highs and higher lows today, it would mark the third straight session. The boost it received yesterday was due, in part, to the announcement of a new product launch, the link to which we’ve included below.

xG Technology, Inc. XGTI

XGTI was another stock from yesterday’s report that made a significant move on the day. It saw a an early low of .40, and would go on to run toward the end of the session, hitting a high of .5474. That worked out to an intraday move of 37%

The stock managed to hold .54 into the close, and the performance came on volume exceeding the monthly average by more than 6X. Anytime we observe action of this kind, we want to be on the lookout for continued activity in subsequent sessions. Already in early trading today we’re seeing the beginnings of a dip-and-rip pattern. We’ll keep our eyes peeled for added chances to take advantage of this play.

OSL Holdings, Inc. OSLH

We tracked OSLH throughout the month of April, and we’re highly rewarded for our vigilance. Between April 2nd (Low: .0021) and April 15th (High: .0274) we witnessed an amazing 1294% run.

Toward the end of last week, OSLH found a bottom after pulling back off of that historic move, and began to rebound from the .0075-mark, and has definitely won back our attention. Yesterday’s session carried OSLH as high as .0144, a 92% swing. We’ll watch this play for the possibility of a protracted rebound off of Friday’s low.

PlasmaTech Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. PTBI

We pulled up PTBI on a routine scan today, and it’s a stock that has been invested in by activist investor George Soros, as we’ve learned in the PR out this morning.. Occasionally, we like to watch stocks that are in the portfolios of high-profile investors. Just last month we followed VLTC over a huge run that was fueled by the involvement of Carl Icahn.

The stock is already up significantly in early trading, and there’s a chance we could see a major gap on the chart up to the 5.50 area filled, so we’ll have this one on our radar for just such an event. We’ve pointed this out below; if PTBI can gain support at or above the 4.40-mark, we like its chances of making a nice run.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Recap of Friday & Much More

Friday’s Options Ideas:

We had our eyes on a handful of options trading possibilities on Friday, and we did see some significant moves to the upside emerge from that group. We’ll kick things off this week by outlining some of the opportunities that were available for traders within the price ranges we specified in Friday’s report:

Skyworks Solutions, Inc. SWKS
$94.50 Calls – Range: 1.26-3.63 – Max Gain: 188%
$95 Calls – Range: .84-3.20 – Max Gain: 280%
$95.50 Calls – Range: .60-2.28 – Max Gain: 280%
$96 Calls – Range: .53-2.36 – Max Gain: 345%

Expedia, Inc. EXPE
$99 Calls – Range: 1.43-3.60 –  Max Gain: 152%
$99.50 Calls – Range: 2.00-2.83 – Max Gain: 41%

FireEye, Inc. FEYE
05/08 $42 Calls – Range: 1.70-2.55 – Max Gain: 50%
05/08 $43 Calls – Range: 1.25-2.00 – Max Gain: 60%

It’s quite the task for anyone to provide just one worthwhile options-trading idea, and on Friday, we were three for three. It serves as a great example of why we like to mix plenty of these options ideas into our daily reports; the gains are out there, ripe for the taking! 

Advanced Medical Isotope Corp. ADMD

Our attention was drawn to ADMD this morning as it popped up on our news scanner; the company has come forth with information regarding an “error in the calculation of common shares that should have properly been issued, resulting in significant excess issuances of common stock”. It essentially boils down to an estimated positive impact of $0.8M on ADMD’s balance sheet.

We naturally took a look at the ADMD chart upon taking notice of this news, and as we point out with the annotations below, there are several indications of a bullish trend in effect. As a result, we’ll want to keep watch over ADMD as we begin this new trading week.

Rebound For Social Media Stocks?

LinkedIn Corp. LNKD and Twitter, Inc. TWTR were both crushed on disappointing earnings last week, and both stocks appear to be gearing up for a possible recovery this week. They’re both slightly in the green here in the premarket this morning, and we’ll be looking for potential swing trade opportunities that might present themselves in coming weeks with Calls bearing a 05/29 expiration date.

On LinkedIn Corp. LNKD we’ll be monitoring the 05/29 $200-210 Call range. The longer period before expiration gives the stock some time to sustain a comeback off of recent lows.

For Twitter, Inc. TWTR we’ll actively monitor the 05/29 $38-42 Call range for similar opportunities.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Earnings-Related Options Ideas & More

Earnings-Related Options Ideas

We’ve entered into another round of high-profile earnings releases, and as our routine readers are well aware, this has become a key device in our seeking of quick-strike profits with options trading.

Ebay, Inc. EBAY
On EBAY, we’re going to size up contracts in the $58.50-60 Call range, looking for a classic dip-and-rip scenario. Usually on a gap-up after an earnings beat we see profit-taking which leads to a pullback followed by a resulting bounce. We look to get positioned in some in-the-money calls on the pullback that we can unload when the rebound occurs.

Caterpillar, Inc. CAT
CAT beat on earnings as well, and the range of contracts that we’re most likely going to find the biggest chances for gains here, should fall between $86-89.  We want to stay in the money with our strike price and roll it up in the event the stock breaks out more sharply.

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR

For PBR, which is sliding back following yesterday’s post-market earnings release, we’re going to look for possible opportunities in Weekly Puts in the $9.00-8.50 range, depending on the intensity of the downward pressure we see on the stock as the market opens.

Enzon Pharmceuticals, Inc. ENZN

This is a stock that we want to put on our radars as we head into week’s end; biopharmas have been hot, and ENZN is among those that have been breaking out. We’re anxious to see how this play will continue to fare as it has been streaking into the blue sky.

It’s much like the move we saw in the past couple of weeks from VLTC, which spiked on news of an increased stake by billionaire activist investor Carl Icahn. It so happens that Icahn also owns shares in ENZN, which makes for an interesting side note. We’ll certainly want to keep this one in our sights moving forward.

Yahoo, Inc. YHOO – Options Ideas

If you recall, we were sitting on the fence with our approach to YHOO options yesterday as the internet search giant had fallen short on earnings. We noted that the heaviest action would likely be in the  $44-45 Calls or Puts, depending on the tone of the trend.

It became quickly apparent that YHOO was pulling back further upon the open,and anyone who followed our idea and latched onto the $44 Puts were in for quite a ride as those contracts traded in a range from .17-.55; an intraday swing of 223% The $45 Puts also made a move from .56-1.29, a slightly more subdued yet still very respectable 130%

Great Basin Scientific, Inc. GBSN

We need to congratulate anyone who caught our flag of GBSN in yesterday’s premarket report, as the stock made a healthy intraday run from 4.60-6.10 that could have afforded traders gains of up to 33% on the day on the heels of some FDA-related news.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: OSLH, PBR Updates & More

OSL Holdings, Inc. OSLH

OSLH is going to go down in the books as one of our hottest stock calls of the year following its epic run over the past couple of weeks.

We alerted this play on April 1st after it popped up on a scan the previous day. On April 2nd, we witnessed a low of .0021 in OSLH, and what happened next has been nothing short of astounding.

OSLH hit a high of .0274 during trading yesterday. It has accounted for an incredible 1294% rip in just ten sessions’ time. A big cheer goes out to anyone else who was able to get a piece of that rather large pie!

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR

Like clockwork, PBR continued its impressive recovery from recent lows. The stock was trading at a low of 5.60 following our turning attention back to PBR back on 03/26. As of yesterday’s high of 8.90, the stock itself has rebounded a remarkable 59%

We’ve been consistently rolling up our strike prices as PBR has advanced on the charts. Our readers will recall that we mentioned our interest in Weekly In-the-money Calls, and anyone who entertained the $8 and $8.50 Weekly Calls as PBR pushed close to $9 this midweek, were in for some serious gain opportunities.

Yesterday alone, $8 Calls ran from .35-.87 (+148%), while the $8.50’s traded in a range from .13-.44 (+238%).

Molycorp, Inc. MCP

We’ve been tracking MCP of late, before yesterday, tagging the stock in our morning report from April 9th. Subsequent to that, we witnessed a low of .48 (04/13-04/14).

Yesterday brought a strong move from .68 to .96, which represents an intraday gain of 41%, and an overall increase of 100% over lows that were established just a couple of sessions back.

The stock is closing in on a dollar here in premarket trading, so we’ll need to keep an eye peeled, because MCP may yet have some ground to cover.

Voltari Corp. VLTC

VLTC has been another majorly successful recent call; we made this one along with OSLH in our Extended Watchlist back on April 1st. Subsequent to that, we observed a low of 2.18 and at yesterday’s high of 9.89 the stock had risen by 354%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Late Breaking News – PZOO

Pazoo, Inc. PZOO

Yesterday, PZOO continued its trend of producing healthy daily swings, While PZOO did dip briefly below the 50DMA early on, it gave us a chance at a respectable intraday gain, as it has already done several times in the past couple of weeks. The daily range carried the stock from a low of .0074 back up to the penny mark; a 35% move that came on greater than average volume.

We were recently updated on the status of Pazoo partner, MA & Associates, whose cannabis testing facilities still await the first shipments of product for testing. The State of Nevada has delayed the release of regulatory guidelines for growers pertaining to standardized levels of pesticides, pushing the expected date of first delivery to sometime in June. It does give newly appointed marketing and sales executive Michael Tulimero added time to position the company to secure an even larger presence with growers, who are undoubtedly anticipating the regulatory green light from the State as eagerly as anyone. >> READ PR

We want to take note of the significant PR that just hit the wires at 9:45am:

WHIPPANY, N.J., April 15, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pazoo, Inc. (OTC:PZOO), is pleased to announce that as of yesterday, the company has completely repaid the total of its obligations on its Convertible Promissory Notes to LG Capital Funding LLC and Macallan Partners LLC. In addition, Pazoo has given notice of its intention to fully pay off the Convertible Promissory Notes held by Union Capital LLC by the end of next week and Eastmore Capital LLC within the next two weeks. The total of the obligations, repaid and planned for the next two weeks, is approximately $400,000.

Pazoo as a company felt it extremely important to eliminate any conversions of these notes into free trading shares of the company’s common stock. With the tremendous strides recently attained through our 100% subsidiary, Harris Lee, LLC and 40% owned MA & Associates, LLC, Pazoo is currently working towards more traditional financing vehicles. This will also tremendously benefit the company as it will free up tens of millions of reserve shares for the company’s use. >> VIEW FULL PR
