Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PLKD Update & More

Pleasant Kids, Inc. PLKD

PLKD has been a subject of discussion for us over the course of this month. Within the past couple of weeks we’ve tracked it as it went on a run from .06-.14, a 133% swing in a matter of five sessions. Following that, the stock pulled back to find support at .08, and subsequently rebounded back to .11 yesterday. That’s an added spike of 37% and our signal to continue monitoring PLKD’s progress moving forward.

In addition to providing action on the chart sufficient to net sizable gains for smart traders, PLKD has had a number of positive press releases come down the line recently. This includes an acquisition agreement set to take effect at the end of November, and a recent share reduction of significant magnitude.

As usual, we’ll look to see the stock continue to register higher lows as it has over the past three sessions. We’ve also pointed to a few bullish indicators on the chart that suggest near-term upside potential:

Options Update

We saw a modest move out of the gate from AAPL yesterday, which led the AAPL Weekly $114-116 Calls we were tracking to provide the chance to profit on the early dip-and-rip as we suspected.

The company’s post-market earnings report beat expectations, and as a result, AAPL is gapping up significantly in premarket trading today. This could facilitate further intraday surges in the contracts we specified, so we’ll remain hot on their trail as we head through midweek.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PLKD Update, WTW & More

Weight Watchers International, Inc. WTW

The hype-fueled wave of buying pressure connected to Oprah Winfrey’s announced investment in WTW continued to push the stock higher yesterday. We began on Monday by commenting that this would be one of the major stories of the week, and it has certainly turned out that way.

Though we’ve been focused on several different plays in the WTW options chain, the move we’ve observed in just a couple of sessions from the stock itself has been rather impressive as well. From Monday’s low of 10.76, we’ve witnessed a two-session increase amounting to 78% as of yesterday’s high of 19.15.  After pulling back slightly the stock once again pushed past the $19-mark in premarket trading today.

As to the sustainability of this big run, we have to keep in mind that nothing has changed materially for Weight Watchers, which remains deeply in debt. As we said, the upward pressure is being caused simply due to the perceived value of Oprah’s name and inclusion on the board. We’ll continue to take advantage of the momentum while it’s still possible, but take it under advisement, that at some point this hysterical buying will give way to a substantial selloff as traders actualize their recent substantial gains. On the other side of that eventuality, we’ll also be ready and waiting to formulate some related bounce-play ideas.

MaxSound Corp. MAXD

We included MAXD on yesterday’s extended watchlist, and the stock did come through with a fair opportunity to bank a significant profit with the intraday increase it managed. We observed a daily low of .0275, which gave way to a subsequent high of .0372. That registered as a solid 35% upswing, and occurred on a fair amount of volume to the tune of more than thrice the 3-month average.

The look of the chart still appears bullish, with the RSI about to breach into the powerzone and the MACD showing upward divergence. The next areas of resistance beyond the 200DMA of .041 are sitting at .045 and .055. Yesterday marked the third consecutive session that MAXD posted higher highs and higher lows, qualifying it for momentum play status. Provided it continues to follow that pattern, we’ll remain interested in this play.

Peasant Kids, Inc. PLKD

We also want to pat ourselves on the back for our notion on PLKD a week ago today. We noted that we’d be interested in the stock if it could maintain support above its 200DMA of .0599 on a consolidation from the previous day’s run, and not only did it hold at .06 that day, but it has been on a continuous run since then. It culminated in a high of .14 yesterday, marking a five session swing of 133%

We’ll continue to stay hot on its trail following this morning’s announcement of a substantial share reduction:

MIAMI, Florida, October 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Pleasant Kids, Inc. (PLKD) today announced that the Board of Directors has authorized a reduction in the amount of shares authorized by the company from 9,500,000,000 to 360,000,000 by filing a Certificate of Amendment with the State of Florida. >> VIEW PR

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PLKD, VAPE Recaps & More

Pleasant Kids, Inc. PLKD

PLKD was one of a couple of stocks from yesterday’s premarket report to produce solid performances during yesterday’s session, leaving the door open for some tidy gains. We had noticed it building momentum in the previous session, and thought it seemed ripe for some further advances.

From an early low of .075, we watched as the stock steadily rose until lunch hour, when it registered a high of .105. That hashes out to a 40% intraday swing, and it came on more than three times the 30-day average volume, continuing the trend of momentum.

Ideally, PLKD would hold the 200DMA of .0599 as support on any upcoming consolidations. Failing that, we would need to see the stock hold at a minimum of .04 in order for us to remain interested.

Vape Holdings, Inc. VAPE

VAPE was the other play to work out nicely yesterday. If you recall we were just mentioning in our morning report that we had witnessed a low of .021 last Tuesday, and that the stock had registered higher highs every day since.

That pattern was sustained yesterday; following a dip to a daily low of .046 early on in the session, VAPE would go on to record a new high of .0685. That marked an intraday swing of 49% and a total increase of 226% over our observed low from last week.

Fresh Options Ideas

We took a little break from formulating options ideas yesterday, but we’ve got a couple of new targets to monitor this morning. Both of the following stocks are gapping up heavily this morning, so we’ll be looking for a dip-and-rip in both cases:

TripAdvisor, Inc. TRIP – For TRIP, provided it can maintain support at or above the 200DMA (77.95) on the dip, we’ll be looking at the Weekly 78.50-82.50 Calls. We’ll also radar the Oct. 30th $85 Calls for a possible longer-term play in the event the stock retraces and fills the gap back to the $92 area.

SanDisk Corp. SNDK – On SNDK, we’re going to be tracking the Weekly $65-68 Calls, and will remain interested if the stock can hold above 64.50.
