Options HOT Streak!

Options Roundup
–
Yesterday brought more extreme success in the options trading arena for us, as we formulated two new ideas that worked out nicely, as well as increasing our strike field on the SPY by an extra two sets of contracts.

Our initial targets from Wednesday were the SPY Weekly $334-335 Calls, and we rolled up to include the $336 and $337’s as well. In each case, we saw some nice gains on the day yesterday:

SPY Weekly $334-335 Calls
$334: 2.47-4.87 (+97%)
$335: 2.00-5.64 (+182%)
$336: 1.88-2.95 (+57%)
$337: 1.46-2.35 (+61%)

The two fresh options plays that we highlighted were the NKLA Weekly $21.50-23 Calls and the BBBY Weekly $16-18 Calls, and in both cases, we saw some fantastic opportunities to profit.

NKLA Weekly $21.50-23 Calls
$21.50: 1.17-5.40 (+362%)
$22: .91-5.20 (+471%)
$22.50: .66-4.57 (+592%)
$23: .50-4.16 (+732%)

BBBY Weekly $16-18 Calls
$16: 1.55-4.20 (+171%)
$16.50: 1.57-3.80 (+142%)
$17: 1.28-3.30 (+158%)
$17.50: .93-2.79 (+200%)
$18: .26-2.46 (+846%)
_____

We also saw some more really great moves out of the UBER Calls we began tracking on Tuesday morning, including a ten-bagger!

UBER Weekly $34.50-36 Calls
$34.50: .68-3.35 (+392%)
$35: .39-2.58 (+561%)
$35.50: .25-2.29 (+816%)

ABCO Energy, Inc. ABCE
–
After mounting a run from .0004 up to .0009 as we mentioned in yesterday morning’s report, we cautioned readers that the stock had traded massive volume, and that we’d be on the lookout for a continuation of momentum.

That’s just what ended up happening, as ABCE pushed to a new high .0013. That extends our two-day observed gains on this play to 225%

Wrapping Up a Solid Options Trading Week

Options Recap

We presented some bearish options ideas in our premarket report from yesterday morning and thanks to a midday selloff for the markets as a whole, we were able to observe some very nice intraday gain opportunities.

SPDR S&P500 (ETF) SPY Weekly $309.50-308.50 Puts
$309.50 Puts – Range: .75-1.72 – Max Gain: 129%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PIRS, Options Recaps & More

Pieris Pharmaceuticals, Inc. PIRS

We tagged PIRS in yesterday morning’s premarket report via the extended watchlist after the company released some press regarding a strategic partnership with pharma giant AstraZeneca. That’s all many traders needed to hear, as an incredible amount of buying came in, with volume on the order of more than 206 times the 30-day average.

That massive momentum gave PIRS a steady push in a bullish direction, as the stock rose from a low of 3.0299 to a high of 3.97, a solid intraday climb of 31% We would be quite surprised if that was last of the bullish activity in PIRS after such a big announcement and subsequent massive accumulation of shares.

Weight Watchers International, Inc. WTW – Options Recap

Our fresh options idea for the day yesterday was to track the WTW Weekly $24-25 Calls after noticing elevated post-earnings (out Tuesday) activity. Oprah’s association with the company that began at the end of 2015 has had a lasting positive effect and led to increased revenues and a heightened outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year.

Were looking for these things to drive some movement in the contracts we were looking at, and that’s just what happened early on in the session. Any of the three sets of contracts within our highlighted range would have given traders the opportunity to bank multi-bag profits right from the opening bell. The following gains were up for grabs in the first 45 minutes of the session.

$24 Calls – Range: .52-1.33 – Max Gain: 156%
$24.50 Calls – Range: .40-.81 – Max Gain: 102%
$25 Calls – Range: .32-.65 – Max Gain: 103%

DISH Network Corp. DISH – Options Recap

Our bearish options idea from Monday morning’s premarket report was to monitor the DISH 05/12 $62-60 Puts after noticing that not only did DISH have a disappointing earnings release, but that the chart was also looking top-heavy prior to that.

Our idea has worked out exceedingly well, whether traders took our suggestion to go with the contracts expiring next week as we listed, or simply went with the weeklies, which also made massive moves. Here are the potential gains that were up for grabs on our listed contracts:

$62 Puts – Range: .40-1.48 – Max Gain: 270%
$61.50 Puts – Range: .40-.91 – Max Gain: 127%
$61 Puts – Range: .21-.50 – Max Gain: 138%
$60.50 Puts – Range: .26-.43 – Max Gain: 65%
$60 Puts – Range: .10-.50 – Max Gain: 400%

First NBC Bank Holding Co. FNBC

Monday, on FNBC we commented that “we’ll have to monitor this one for its bottom, but after it’s reached we could in in for a heck of a bounce”. That bottom came the very next day at .0932 and yesterday, the big bounce we were mentioning came to pass as FNBC rushed to a high of .35.

That works out to a fantastic two-day swing of 276% and with the stock gapping up slightly in the premarket today, we could see an extension of those gains.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PLUG, OSLH, BLDP & More

Ballard Power Systems, Inc. BLDP

BLDP appeared in yesterday’s extended watchlist, but it wasn’t even close to its first appearance in our reports. We constantly receive reminders to follow our daily extended watchlist plays closely, in the form of big increases and chances to profit. BLDP is a shining example of this concept, a stock that we’ve tracked since March of last year. Shortly following that time, we would see a low of .76, and the stock has never looked back.

Over the past year BLDP gradually rose up until recently it began to gain ground much quicker. At the start of 2014, the stock was trading in the 1.55-range. Since then it has taken off, culminating in a new high of 7.38 yesterday. Our total possible gain on BLDP yesterday was 31% however, from our original alert low on this stock we’ve seen a huge increase of 871%

As far as options trading ideas go, we are looking at the BLDP 03/22 $6 and $7 Calls.

OSL Holdings, Inc. OSLH

We kicked off a new trading week in grand fashion by tagging OSLH in yesterday’s morning report. The company had released a PR outlining its entry into the legal cannabis sector, and the stock would go on to have a great session.

After opening at .0899, the stock touched a low of .089 before running up to .19 in the afternoon. That move marked an intraday gain opportunity of up to 113% on roughly 28x the 3-month average volume. Congratulations to anyone who was able to take advantage of our timely alert!

Plug Power, Inc. PLUG

Leading up to yesterday morning’s report including old favorite, PLUG, was already one of our all-time standouts. The stock had made an unreal 7129% gain from our first ever mention (@.1155) just over a year ago, to Friday’s top mark at 8.35.

Seeing a low of 8.57 before bulling its way to a new high of 11.41 yesterday, PLUG accounted for an intraday gain of 33%

The overall increase from our first-ever alert would be pushed even higher, to a mind-numbing 9778%

Creative Edge Nutrition FITX

FITX popped up on our news ticker this morning with an announcement we felt was worthy of passing along. We’ve been following along as the company builds its state of the art cannabis grow facility in Ontario, CA, and this morning we received an update:

We had to include GLCO as well, who released a PR today that ties it to another one of our marijuana success stories, EAPH (Easton Pharmaceuticals,Inc.).

FCGD, MDBX, SCON & Extended Watchlist

First Colombia Gold Corp. FCGD

Despite the fact that it closed down on the day, our momentum alert from yesterday morning still provided us with plenty of opportunity to get in and out with a profit in the early part of the day.

After gapping up very slightly to .0044, the stock managed to ride the momentum as high as .007, allowing for gains of up to 59% in the first half-hour. Apart from possible gains right out of the gate, we can also extract a good lesson from what happened next. We saw what is called a “double-top”, which is when a stock bumps into resistance, pulls back, and makes another run at its high before losing momentum, which leads to a pullback like we saw as the day progressed.

We lost interest when the stock failed to hold support at our called level of .006. It is always a good idea to have a mental stop, falling below which point is an indicator that its time to exit. All things considered, FCGD turned out to be a good call, even if the window of opportunity wasn’t open for as long as we would’ve liked.

Medbox, Inc. MDBX

We’d like to give ourselves a quick pat on the back for this play. We last mentioned MDBX on March 12th, along with some of the other medical marijuana related stocks we’ve been actively tracking this year. After that time, the stock was trading as low as 14.02. It is not often we see a Pinksheet stock trading in such a high PPS range, but MDBX managed to touch 38.40 on Tuesday on record volume, marking a move of 174% in roughly six weeks.

MDBX sent out a PR yesterday, pertaining to Tuesday being a record trading day:
HOLLYWOOD, Calif., April 24, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — Medbox, Inc. (OTC Markets: MDBX) (www.medboxinc.com), a leader in providing industry specific consulting services and patented systems to the medical and retail industries, announced that yesterday (April 23, 2013), was the single largest trading day for their stock in the company’s history with over 66,000 shares traded.

Superconductor Technologies, Inc. SCONSCON appeared on Tuesdays extended watchlist, and followed with a great performance, opening at 3.50, and seeing a low of 3.41, before running as high as 5.45. That marks a possible gain of up to 60%
