Yesterday’s OTC Shutdown

We wanted to comment on the lack of OTC trading yesterday even though our newsletter didn’t happen to contain any OTC stocks. Due to an alleged glitch in connectivity, FINRA made the call to halt all trading on the OTC Markets. It took most of the day for a solution to be enacted, but apparently the problem was resolved, and trading will resume normally today. This wasn’t the first time this year that a US Market has been shut down for glitches in data streams, as many you of recall, NASDAQ was hit with a similar occurrence which forced a halt back in August.

Geron, Corp. GERN

We added GERN to yesterday’s extended watchlist upon witnessing pre-market trades going off in the 4.00-range. It was gapping up big-time from its previous close at 3.60, and began the day’s trading at 7.25. This was a red flag, and as is usually the case with a stock which has spiked so violently, GERN hit its top at 7.79, and began the inevitable reversal. This would have been an excellent opportunity to short the stock, and cover in the 5.00-range for a rapid profit to the tune of 40%

Merrimack Pharmaceuticals, Inc. MACK

MACK is a bottom-bounce play that we picked up on yesterday, and like it as a potential recovery play. There is a big gap on the chart between the 3.00-3.40 level, the filling of which could provide us with gains of 30% or more. We’ll have it on watch today to break that 3.00-mark.

Aden Solutions, Inc. ADSU
&
Accredited Business Consolidators Corp. ACDU

We noticed that these two plays began to breakout yesterday on abnormally high volume. We want to keep them on watch for a continuation of that momentum into today’s session.

Gainers From Yesterday’s Watchlist

Here are picks from yesterday’s extended watchlist that fared well and offered us the chance at gains:

NeuroMetrix, Inc. NURO saw a low of 2.38, and ran 20% to 2.85 roughly between the hours of 10am-1pm

LivePerson Inc. LPSN touched a low of 10.61 before hitting its daily high at 11.44, an 8% increase.

BRND, AXLX & Extended Watchlist

Premier Brands, Inc. BRND
–
BRND continues to impress, for those of you who might have missed our spot-on coverage, let us break it down for you bit by bit:

We caught this play last Thursday morning. We had dug up a PR which stated that NBA legend Dennis Rodman was endorsing a new line of premium vodka with Premier Brands, as well as a series of post-market tweets from Rodman’s Twitter account. Our initial alert that morning would prove to be perfectly timed, as we witnessed an unbelievable run from a low of .0043 all the way up to.0359 the following day.

That 735% move had us on the lookout for an inevitable pullback and bounce, which we stated in last Friday’s morning report. Sure enough, BRND had receded back to close at .0115 on Friday.

Flash forward to Monday morning: We mentioned that we wanted to see BRND hold support above a penny to stay interested. It certainly did, and we were afforded the chance at several subsequent bounce opportunities, the percentage gains of which totaled nearly 200%

That brings us up to yesterday’s activity. As we can see on the intraday chart below, after dipping as low as .014 in the first 75 minutes of trading, it proceeded to attain a high of .022 by lunchtime (+57%). If one chance at a sizable gain wasn’t enough, the stock would pull back to .0155 before pushing to a late-afternoon high-of-day (.0225) and closing strong at .022.

Axiologix, Inc. AXLX

AXLX is another play we’ll be looking at this morning. It’s been awhile since we ran across a sub-penny stock with bottom-play potential.

AXLX is coming off of its low for 2013, and might be a good one to watch as spikes up to 100% higher the current level of .0004 have been recently observed. An influx of volume could easily cause AXLX to test its 200DMA at .0008 if resistance at the 50DMA of .0005 is broken.

You can also take a look at the video chart we prepared on AXLX:

BRND, IWEB, GSS & Extended Watchlist

Premier Brands, Inc. BRND
While being cautious for a turnaround, we stated yesterday afternoon that should BRND manage to close at or near its high of day, that momentum could continue over into today. That’s just what happened, as the stock turned in a wildly impressive performance for the day, rocketing from a low of .0043, to as high .016 before closing out the day at .0155. Total intraday gains of 272% were possible.

For our shrewd alert of BRND we were rewarded handsomely, and as recognition for that, for the second time this week, we were named the #1 stock-pickers on Penny Stock Rumble.

We will repeat ourselves in our assessment of BRND moving forward. A stock which spikes this much in such a short time-span is always at risk of a pullback, so caution should be used. That said, we also will be monitoring closely, because another strong close at or near the high of day today could signal a carryover of momentum into next week.

ICEweb, Inc. IWEB

This week has been an exciting one. For those who may have missed it, IWEB is another stock that earned us the top spot on Penny Stock Rumble. On Wednesday morning, we put out Tuesday’s intraday chart showing the possibilities we saw for gains out of IWEB. They amounted to gains as much as 48% from .024-.0355, then several bounceplay opportunities followed, from .029-.0315. (8%), .028-.0335 (20%), & .0282-.033 (17%).

Golden Star Resources, Inc. GSS
GSS appeared on our extended watchlist from yesterday, having just come off of its 52-week lows. The stock was as low as .425 before hitting a high of .4985 A recent swing high of .5488 is going to be the next key resistance area for this gold play.

IWEB, INO & Extended Watchlist

IceWEB, Inc. IWEB
We were exceedingly pleased with the performance of IWEB on our very first day of coverage, as it behaved just as we thought it might, given the conditions of the chart heading into the session.

The initial run out of the gate brought the stock from its opening price of .024, and ran 48% to .0355 before 11 o’clock. Following that, a couple opportunities to catch bounces off of the .028 mark presented themselves, from .028-.0335, and then again from .0282-.033. Along with the price action came some really impressive liquidity, trading roughly 9X its 3mo. average in the highest volume day since early this spring.

To finish off a solid day, IWEB added a solid close, coming in above the previous resistance sitting at .031.

Just a reminder for those who may have missed it, we conducted an exclusive interview with IWEB CEO Rob Howe via our sister site, StockTradersTalk, which contains a lot of good information about IWEB’s operations and plans moving forward. Check it out right here. You can also take a peek at the report we released yesterday which includes a copy of the PR released by the company, as well as several other details.

Our coverage of IWEB also earned us a spot at the top of the Penny Stock Rumble, an accolade we are always proud to receive!

Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. INO
We added INO to our extended watchlist on June 14th, and at the time the stock was trading as low as .6425. The stock hit a high of 1.20 yesterday, marking a move of 87%

INO is gapping up premarket this morning, having last traded at 1.40. We are going to want to keep an eye on this stock today.

DRRX, PPHM & Extended Watchlist

Durect Corp. DRRX

We are putting DRRX on our radar this morning; it has recently come off of a bottom, and is gaining some momentum as it begins its recovery. Prior to May, this pharmaceutical play was trading at a base level well above 1.20, before seeing a large spike followed by a sharp dropoff. If DRRX can break through resistance at the 50DMA & 200DMA there’s a chance it could come up to fill that gap on the chart. A return to previous levels from here could yield gains of up to 20%

In addition to a connection with pharma giant Pfizer, the company has also gotten FDA acceptance of a New Drug Application (NDA) as outlined in yesterday’s PR:

CUPERTINO, Calif., June 20, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — DURECT Corporation (Nasdaq: DRRX) today announced that the New Drug Application (NDA) for the investigational product POSIDUR (SABER-Bupivacaine) has been accepted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) indicating that the application is sufficiently complete to permit a substantive review. POSIDUR is a post-operative pain relief depot that utilizes DURECT’s patented SABER technology to deliver bupivacaine and is designed to provide up to three days of pain relief after surgery. DURECT submitted the NDA as a 505(b)(2) application. The Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) goal date (the date the FDA expects to complete its review of the NDA) has been confirmed as February 12, 2014.

Peregrine Pharmaceuticals, Inc. PPHM

Speaking of pharmaceutical plays, one of the stocks that we continuously monitor is PPHM. Many of you will remember back in May when the stock provided us with some serious opportunities for profit.

Recently PPHM has been in a marked downtrend, and as you can see on the chart below, indicators seem to confirm this fact. We are going to want to put this one on bottom watch over the next several sessions, as the resulting bounce/s could be significant.

Side Note:

Since Ben Bernanke’s recent comments regarding the Fed’s upcoming tapering of quantitative easing measures, markets have been in freefall. If no reversal occurs and that remains the overall trend, we are going to want to keep an eye on SPY Puts, VIX/VXX Calls.
