PROW, NQ, PLUG, Cannabis Stocks & Extended Watchlist

Cannabis Sector Stays Hot
It was really hard not to make a profit off of the marijuana stocks featured in Tuesday’s final report of 2013. Nearly every single one closed in the green on significant-to-heavy volume, with some of the more notable gains coming from CBIS (+28%), HEMP (+29%), and FITX (+38%). This surge of investor interest in the sector as a whole comes in step with the first stores selling legal pot for recreational use yesterday in Colorado.

It will be important to keep an eye on the developments out of Colorado and Washington, where legalization has already been voted into law, as they will be acting as a litmus test for the rest of the nation. We know that many state legislatures have already begin to entertain the idea of following in the footsteps of the “green revolution” currently taking place out West. We’ll be certain to stay hot on the trail of this story as it unfolds, because this is an industry that is positioned for a boom; and in truth we have been way ahead of the pack in anticipation of this occurrence. Passing into 2014, our coverage of the sector has spanned three calendar years.


Plug Power, Inc. PLUG 

We’re closing in a full year of coverage on PLUG, with our first ever mention coming last February, and it turned out to be one of our more successful plays from 2013. Our scanners picked up on this stock as it was coming off of its 52-wk low at .1155. Over the course of the spring and into summer, PLUG continued to push ever upward, running past .50 in September and reaching highs in the .70’s in September.

If it had stopped there, we still would have called that quadruple-bagger one of the year’s best alerts, but indeed, the stock has been pressing its way to new, impressive highs. The peak of which was reached in early December when we witnessed trades at 2.2399. For anyone without a calculator on hand, that’s an unbelievable move of 1839%


NQ Mobile, Inc. NQ

NQ first appeared in our reports back on October 29th, and on that day, we saw a low of 8.42. The stock had recently taken a huge spill from the $24-range and we were keen to take advantage of the rebound. It has taken less than three months for that plan to come to fruition, and we are extremely pleased with the results so far. As of the high reached on Tuesday, 16.21, NQ has made an overall move for us on the order of 93%


Progress Watch Corp. PROW

On Tuesday we mentioned that while we had already followed PROW from lows at .0065 to its then-current price of .013, that we were looking for a break of the .013 -mark to put PROW in Blue Sky Breakout mode. We did indeed witness that break once the session ensued, and PROW spiked as high as .0194, giving us the chance at close to 200% in gains so far.

It made a strong close as well, holding roughly 90% of its gains, and ending the session at .019 on more than twice the 3mo. average volume, so continuing activity on PROW could get rather interesting.

Blue Horseshoe: The Week in Review

For as long as we can remember following the Penny Stock Rumble, we can’t recall a time when a newsletter took the top spot on 3 out of 4 days, but with yesterday’s session, we did in fact reach that difficult achievement! We were anticipating our first ever hat-trick, and we were not disappointed. The following video outlines some of this week’s biggest successes:

Tiger Oil & Energy, Inc. TGRO

We started off Monday with TGRO, which traded as low as .36, and hit .635 on Tuesday for a 76% gain. It would then dip back to .38 before reversing again and surging as high as .62 yesterday for up to 63% on the rebound.

That brought this week’s cumulative gains from TGRO to a total of 139%.


BG Medicine, Inc. BGMD

Next came BGMD, which we spotted on Tuesday trading as low as .6115. We would witness this play running to a high of 1.70 by Wednesday, giving us the opportunity at 178% in possible gains.


CytRx Corp. CYTR

Last but not least, was Wednesday’s alert of CYTR, which looks like it could sprout legs again today. CYTR was as low as 3.45 at the time of our initial alert, and hit a high of 6.36 yesterday, racking in 84% in gains!

This morning, CYTR is gapping up once again, trading in the 6.55 range; if the breakout continues, consider it another triple-digit winner for us.

This was the play that gave us our third winning appearance on the Rumble:


Coronado BioSciences, Inc. CNDO

CNDO jumped out at us as a stock with a serious gap to fill on the chart. As you can see below, back in October the stock fell off a cliff from the $6-8 range all the way down to present levels.

This is a potential play that we’ll want to monitor closely moving forward, because a break of the 50DMA could very well lead to the filling of at least a portion of that gap, a move which would carry with it some significant gains.


With calls like these this week, we’ve made other newsletters obsolete! Nowhere else can you find both diversification into many areas of finance(from microcaps, to big-boards, to options-trading & more), and winning picks on such a consistent basis. Why would you go anywhere else? The word ‘quit’ is not in our vocabulary, which is why we’ll come back time and time again, providing our readers with the highest-quality picks available! We’re wrapping up another hugely successful week, so be sure to get back with us on Monday when we’ll do it all over again!

PLUG, BLDP, MACK & Extended Watchlist

Plug Power, Inc. PLUG

We had a feeling that PLUG was going to continue its run yesterday, as stated in our daily report, and once again our instincts served us well. The momentum built up in this stock on Wednesday as it made a 23% move to close out the session on more than 6x the 3mo. average volume was impossible to ignore.

After opening at the key resistance point we outlined (1.45) PLUG briefly dipped to 1.43 and then barreled upward as it touched a high of 1.96, an intraday gain of 37% on roughly 14x the average volume. The momentum continued to build in PLUG and we continued to follow along closely. Remember, our coverage of this play goes back a long way, since the stock was trading in the .11-range.

This morning, the stock is gapping up above 2.00. The current pre-market high of 2.19 represents a gain of 1804% from the low following our first ever PLUG alert back on Feb 28th. The gain from our recent re-alert at a low of 1.04, at this morning’s high, stands at 111%

PLUG has certainly surpassed any expectations we had for it, and as you can see on the chart below, it appears currently overbought, which means the time to take profits off of the table is fast approaching. For newcomers, we believe the best action would be to patiently await a dip, and subsequent rebound, as has occurred several times this year.


Ballard Power Systems, Inc. BLDP

BLDP appeared on our extended watchlist on Wednesday, at which time the stock was trading at a low of 1.34. This morning, we are witnessing a gap-up on a PR that hit the wire post-market yesterday, with trades currently going off in the 1.80-range. We’ll want to keep an eye on the activity here as we close out the week, so we’re reserving a spot on our tickers for BLDP.

VANCOUVER, Dec. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — Ballard Power Systems (NASDAQ: BLDP)(TSX: BLD) has announced the signing of a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Van Hool NV, Europe’s fourth largest bus manufacturer, in support of the manufacture and further deployment of zero emission fuel cell buses.>>>FULL STORY


Merrimack Pharmaceuticals, Inc. MACK

MACK is another play we’ve been tracking recently, mentioning it for the first time on November 8th, when it was trading as low as 2.40. Like the previous play, MACK is gapping up this morning to the tune of more than 100% with shares changing hands for more than 4.80.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 6, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Merrimack Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (MACK) today announced that Phase 1 data evaluating safety of the novel agent MM-302 in patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer will be presented at the 2013 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS), December 10-14, 2013 in San Antonio, Texas.  >>> FULL STORY

PLUG, IACH, CALI, AAPL & Extended Watchlist

Plug Power, Inc. PLUG

PLUG turned in a solid session yesterday, as anticipated, following its appearance in our morning report. Initially, the stock opened at 1.04, made a 12.5% move to 1.1699, and would settle back to the 1.04 level before running up to a daily high of 1.28 for an added 23% intraday gain opportunity.

Following a strong close just a tick below the high-of-day (1.27) we’re going to be following this play once again, as the momentum could easily carry it even higher. As you can see on the chart below the next key area of resistance to watch for a break comes at the 1.45 level. We’ll need to see the stock hold support above a dollar, or it could pull back to fill the gap on the chart back to the .80-range.


Information Architects Corp. IACH

We’ve been tracking IACH via our Extended Watchlist for most of the week. The stock recently made a huge 1800% move from .001-.019, prompting us to put it on our radar,  monitoring for pullbacks and subsequent bounce opportunities, and it delivered just that.

After dipping back to .008, we saw a rebound back to .013, and a strong close at .012. Gains of up to 63% could have been achieved on the bounce.


China Auto Logistics, Inc. CALI

We also want to keep an eye on CALI, which popped up on our pre-market scan as it is gapping up heavily on the heels of a morning press release.

TIANJIN, CHINA, Dec 05, 2013 (Marketwired via COMTEX) — China Auto Logistics Inc. (the “Company” or “CALI”) (NASDAQ: CALI), a top seller in China of luxury imported automobiles, and a leading provider of auto-related services, reported today that on November 30, 2013, its subsidiary, Tianjin Binhai Shisheng Trading Group Co., Ltd. (“Shisheng”) signed an equity transfer agreement with Hezhong International Development Co, Ltd. to acquire Tianjin Zhonghe Auto Sales Service Co., the owner and operator of the Airport International Automall in Tianjin (the “Automall”). The Company plans to develop the Automall into a key site for what it believes can become one of the largest used car businesses in China.


Apple, Inc. AAPL Options

With the way AAPL has been gaining a head of steam lately, it seems plausible to imagine the stock surpassing $600 as we head into the new year. As a result, we are putting the 01/18 $585 Calls on our radar which closed at 12.25 yesterday, meaning the break-even point is 597.50. What we’re looking for, is to see the stock push past to the $610-15 level in January, which could provide triple-digit gains for the 01/18 $585 Calls.

The company finally signed a deal with China Mobile to get its iPhones on their network, as reported by the The Wall Street Journal this morning. China Mobile is comprised of over 700 million users, which obviously represents huge opportunity (in a market more than twice the population of the US) for Apple to boost foreign sales moving forward.

TSLA, PLUG, ETRM, OMED & Extended Watchlist

Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA – Options
Back on November 29th, we were noticing that conditions on the TSLA chart had been exhibiting signs of a coming uptrend, and as a result, we presented a few options trading ideas that we felt had a reasonable chance of success. In particular, the 12/21 $120 Calls, and the 12/27 $130 Calls. We were rewarded for our interest, as the stock did indeed find its legs and begin to run following that report.

Since then we’ve seen some major moves out of those contracts, as the $120 Calls ended up trading from a low of 8.40, all the way up to yesterday’s closing price of 25.46, a monstrous 203% gain. The $130 Calls saw their low at 5.03, and ended up closing at 17.07. That was good for an even larger 239% rip.

Chartwise, it appears as if resistance is sitting at $145.65, $151, and the 50DMA of $159.45, and there is a gap on the chart to fill from $160-176, so a push past those key resistance points could lead to more pronounced increases. We would continue to take advantage of the added gains on these contracts, and in the event of a sustained uptrend, would have to consider rolling our strike price up to higher level that we believe would still be pushed into the money.


Plug Power, Inc. PLUG

PLUG has been an old favorite of ours from last March when we caught it on our scanners coming off its 52-wk lows (.1155) and we’ve mentioned it on multiple occasions since that time. We’ve followed this play all the way up to current levels, which as a result of recent favorable reports on the company’s finances, have reached all the way up to this morning’s pre-market high of 1.41. That represents an increase of 1121% off of lows following our initial alert.

We’ll be continuing to monitor PLUG closely, and will certainly want to take part in today’s conference call/webcast in which the CEO will address the reasoning behind his statement that the company is on pace for a “blowout quarter.”, as well as other issues.

LATHAM, N.Y., Dec 04, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE via COMTEX) — Plug Power Inc. (Nasdaq:PLUG), a leader in providing clean, reliable energy solutions, will today host a conference call and webcast during which CEO Andy Marsh will provide a business update for Plug Power and the Company’s expectations for the remainder of 2013 and for 2014.Since the October 8 business update call, the Company has seen an additional 17.8M USD in bookings. Plug Power is currently in negotiations with several large customers on sales agreements to deploy turn-key GenDrive solutions at multiple distribution centers. The Company believes this will significantly impact the fourth quarter bookings, as well as provide a recurring revenue stream from product, service and hydrogen contracts. Plug Power expects orders to range between 30M and 40M USD for the fourth quarter of 2013.

Plug Power has scheduled its conference call and webcast today at 10:30 am ET to review the Company’s business updates.

Andy Marsh will be joined by COO, Keith Schmid, and Vice President of Sales, Erik Hansen, to answer questions.


EnteroMedics, Inc. ETRM

ETRM was part of yesterday’s Extended Watchlist, and the stock went on to put up quite a performance. After touching a low of 1.48 shortly before 10:30am, ETRM would spend the rest of the day pressing upward to its high of day and closing price at 2.24. This marks an impressive intraday run of 51% on nearly 20x its 3mo. average volume.

We’ll certainly want to keep an eye on a stock with current momentum of this magnitude.


OncoMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. OMED

Another winner from yesterday’s Extended Watchlist, OMED traded in a range from 22.10-31.99, which marks an intraday move of 45% Quite an impressive feat for a big-board stock in this price range.

Congrats to anyone who caught this, or any of the opportunities for significant profits afforded by the excellent calls in yesterday’s report.
