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: SITO News & More

SITO Mobile Ltd.  SITO

Popping up on our scanner this morning is SITO, which, per a premarket PR (excerpt below) released this morning, has entered into an asset purchase agreement with Hipcricket (HIPP).

Upon approval, this deal will create in SITO, one of the largest mobile ad/marketing firms in the industry. This also comes in the wake of what has apparently been a good year for the company. According to SITO’s CEO, 2014 was “a transformative year… which included 27% year-over-year revenue growth”.

These are all reasons why the fact that we’re catching SITO coming off of its 52-low could carry some potentially exciting opportunities on the chart. We’ll have our eyes peeled for further updates on the progress of the deal as we tag SITO for monitoring in the days and weeks ahead.

JERSEY CITY, N.J., Jan. 21, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SITO Mobile Ltd. (SITO), a leading mobile engagement platform provider, announced today that it has entered into an asset purchase agreement (“Agreement”) with Hipcricket Inc. (HIPP), the leader in mobile engagement and analytics, for $4.5 million in cash, to acquire substantially all of its assets. Hipcricket reported revenues of $26.7 million for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2014 and currently holds 21 U.S. patents covering technology inventions. >> FULL PR

Medican Enterprises, Inc. MDCN

Speaking of plays coming up off of their annual lows, MDCN represented a feat of perfect timing for us yesterday. We noted that the stock had reached its lowest point of the past year on Thursday, and the rebound offered up the chance at a 57% intraday move to kick off yesterday’s trading session.

Beginning from an early low of .023, the stock surged as high as .036 around 11am, with the bulk of the day’s volume (which exceeded the monthly average by threefold) having traded in that time frame.

Congrats go out to any of our readers who were able to reap a profit off of that excellently-timed call of MDCN!

We’re interested to follow the main MDCN storyline, being the recently announced purchase of a 7200sq.ft. commercial facility and dispensary in Phoenix, AZ. We’ll be certain to relay any developments as they come down the pipe.


Netflix, Inc. NFLX – Options Ideas

NFLX continues to surge on yesterday’s after-hours earnings beat in this morning’s premarket activity, and it sets us up nicely for a possible play on some options calls.

What we’d expect to see is some early profit-taking, causing a classic dip-and-rip, and thereafter we’ll be looking to take advantage. Provided the stock holds support above today’s premarket low of 394.80 we’ll be paying close attention to the  $395-410 Calls for possible intraday/intraweek flip opportunities.

Side Note: GPRO is also bouncing off a recent bottom, and has our attention as a solid recovery play, therefore we will want to radar call options there as well.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: CACH, PLUG & More

CACHE, Inc. CACH

Continuing the pattern of tracking bottom-plays that we’ve established this week, we have another potential play to add to the mix this morning with CACH.

We noticed this one on our premarket scanner this morning, and after glancing at the chart we can see potential for a possible dead-cat bounce. The stock has recently been beaten back to a new 52-week low at .22, and is rebounding back to the mid-.30’s in this morning’s premarket trading. We’ll have an eye on it for at least the remainder of the week.

Today’s Press:

CACHÉ, Inc. (CACH), a national multi- channel specialty retailer of women’s apparel and accessories, today announced that the Company has received an inquiry from a third party regarding a potential sale of the Company >> Full PR

Plug Power, Inc. PLUG

Our long-time subscribers will certainly recall our monstrously-successful interactions with PLUG in the past, but for those who are newer to our reports, a quick refresh- we tagged plug initially back on February 28th, 2013 at a price of .135, and over a 13-month period followed it all the way to a high of 11.72 (this March); an eye-popping increase totaling 8,581%

Currently, PLUG is trading near the $4-mark in this morning’s premarket, and there is a gap on the chart from roughly 4.50-5.00. If the stock can break its 50DMA at 4.36 on the strength of a significant PR this morning, we could see a gap-fill.

On the whole, the stock is trading at a relative bottom, and with a number of factors looking favorable (including this morning’s announcement of a contract worth upwards of $20M), we like the chances of seeing some opportunities come our way.

The severe beating currently being administered to the fossil fuel markets makes now as good a time as any to look at alternative energy plays like this one, as well as others we’ve previously tracked within the sector, such as BDLP and FCEL.

LATHAM, N.Y. and SPOKANE, Wash., Dec. 4, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Plug Power Inc. (PLUG), a leader in providing clean, reliable energy solutions, today announced that it has executed a multi-year contract for its ReliOn integrated fuel cell solution and GenFuel hydrogen services to be used with a major North American telecommunications provider. >> Full PR

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Update on AEMD & More

Aethlon Medical, Inc. AEMD

Yesterday’s standout play was AEMD, a stock that we’ve been tracking since October 14th. Following that initial alert, we observed a low of .20 in AEMD, and after trading sideways for the remainder of last month, the stock has been gaining ground steadily over the past few weeks.

We re-flagged it in yesterday’s extended watchlist and witnessed a 27% intraday run from .562-.717 on approximately 10X the 3-month average trading volume. At its high mark of .717, AEMD was showing us an increase of 258% over the lows we observed barely a month ago.

The event that prompted us to originally begin following AEMD was during the height of the Ebola scare, when the company announced that its “Hemopurifier” blood-cleansing system was to be used to treat an Ebola patient overseas. This morning, we ‘re getting word that the patient (who was experiencing multiple organ failure at the time the treatment was administered) has now been discharged from the hospital. >>> FULL PR

It will be interesting to see the effect this news has on AEMD as we approach the holiday hiatus, which shortens this to a 3½ day trading week.

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR -Options

PBR is gapping up again this morning, in the wake of yesterday’s announcement that its ‘Cidade de Ilhabela’ offshore oil platform had been brought online. (Read our comments on the company’s situation in yesterday’s report if you missed it)

Anyone who caught yesterday’s morning report will recall our options-trading targets; we were considering the Jan 17th $10 and $11 Calls. The gap-and-fade that followed provided us a good opportunity to snap up some discounted contracts, and we’ll be looking to lock in some profits on the gap-up we’re seeing this morning.

SinoCoking Coal and Coke Chemical Industries, Inc. SCOK

Another play that we’ve been monitoring for some time is SCOK, which we’ll want to watch closely today on the heels of a notable PR released this morning. According to SCOK, the syngas plant that it recently opened in China is now operating at 100% capacity and pulling more than $80K worth of syngas from the Earth per day.

We actually began tracking SCOK the morning it announced its intent to open the facility, (it ran hard that day from 3.35-9.37, +180%) so this morning’s PR regarding the plant acheiving full operational status brings us full circle with SCOK.

PINGDINGSHAN, China, Nov. 25, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SinoCoking Coal and Coke Chemical Industries, Inc. (SCOK), a producer of clean energy products located in Henan Province, today announced that its above ground facility for the conversion of carbon dioxide into clean-burning syngas has achieved its initial production target of 25,000 cubic meters per hour and is currently transporting syngas to three customers and agents in and around its facility in Pingdingshan.

Based on the current price of $0.139 per cubic meter for syngas, the gross revenue generated per day by the aboveground facility is approximately $83,280. Gross profit margin is expected to be between 45% and 50%. >> FULL PR

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ESI, PZOO Recaps & More

ITT Educational Services, Inc. ESI

Yesterday ESI served as an excellent reminder of why it’s important to check our blog on a regular basis, even if you’re already a subscriber to our daily newsletter. With the attention of our primary report otherwise focused, we published an early morning recap of Friday’s top plays, one of which was ESI.

We were congratulating ourselves for catching the 68% intraday move (6.97-11.75) the stock had achieved on Friday, and to follow up that performance, ESI registered a second straight session loaded with potential.

The came out of the gate firing on all cylinders, seeing a low of 9.05, and steadily bulling its way up to a high of 13.98, an intraday gain of 54%. It brought the two-day cumulative total gains to 122% and an overall increase of an even 100% over Friday’s low.

Cheer to all who were able to take advantage of this impressive two-session performance. With the kind of trading action we’re seeing out of ESI, we’ll definitely continue to reserve a spot for it on our watchlist.

Image Sensing Systems, Inc. ISNS

ISNS is a play we tagged for the first time back on August 27th. We were pleased with the moves the stock made for us subsequent to that alert, as we witnessed a monstrous run from 3.59-9.94.

Over roughly the last month, the stock has since gone under consolidation, and made its way back down to the 2.20-range, from which point the stock began to see some signs of recovery yesterday. For that reason, we want to reassign ISNS a spot on our speculative watchlist.

We’ll be interested to tune in next Wednesday for the company’s scheduled earnings conference call:

Pazoo, Inc. PZOO

PZOO registered higher lows on Monday, and continued to show promising signs with regard to indicators on the chart.

We observed large buyers sitting on the bid trying to soak up cheap shares of PZOO, as evidenced in the following Level 2 Snapshot taken yesterday. The offers were relatively thin in comparison to the strong bid support.

Primary levels of resistance are still the 50 & 200DMA’s; you can take a look at the following video where we point out some of the key aspects of the PZOO chart.

PZOO is dually involved with the development of its health and wellness online portal at PAZOO.COM as well as its majority stake in a medical marijuana testing firm in Nevada. For those who might have our special report on the stock yesterday, you can find a copy here: PZOO REPORT
