Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MMM Update & More

3M Co. MMM – Update

Fresh for yesterday morning’s report, we decided to highlight some MMM calls on the heels of the company’s earnings report, so we put the MMM Weekly $195-202.50 Calls on the radar.

Thanks to a solid intraday performance wherein the stock ran from a low of 194.20-199.89, there were some huge intraday moves from for traders to take advantage of promptly following the opening bell, which were as follows:

$195 Calls – Range: 2.24-6.00 – Max Gain: 168%
$197.50 Calls – Range: .67-4.34 – Max Gain: 548%
$200 Calls – Range: .71-2.80 – Max Gain: 294%

Fresh Options Ideas:
AAPL Weekly $160-162.50 Calls
SPY Weekly $264-265.50 Calls


TrovaGene, Inc. TROV – Review

We last mentioned TROV on December 18th, and at the time the stock was trading down to an annual low of .503. Since then, we’ve seen a slow and steady recovery, which was kicked into a higher gear yesterday following news of Trovagene and PoC Capital entering an agreement to fund the development of Onvansertib in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.

The stock ended up hitting .73, marking a 45% rise since we mentioned it. We will want to continue monitoring TROV for further advances from this point forward.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Eye-Popping Profits Pouring In!

Canopy Growth Corp. CGC

It’s been just under two weeks since we alerted readers that we were interested in the CGC 09/21 $30-40 Calls. This was as a direct result of beverage behemoth Constellation Brands’ (STZ) adding a multi-billion dollar block to its stake in CGC.

CGC shares themselves have risen 66% over the same period, from a low of 29.05 to yesterday’s new high of 48.19.

What this continued bullish surge has done for our options ideas has been nothing short of eye-popping. The update ranges and total possible gains so far are as follows:

$30 Calls – Range: 1.76-18.20 – Max Gain: 934%
$35 Calls – Range: .56-13.90 – Max Gain: 2382%
$40 Calls – Range: .16-8.75 – Max Gain: 5369%

The $40’s especially have obliterated our wildest expectations. A paltry $16 investment on a single $40 Call contract at the lows, would have been been worth roughly $859 at the highs!

FRESH IDEAS

As you can very plainly see, options are where the biggest potential profits lie, so we will of course be offering up a couple of fresh ideas this morning.

Both TIF and DSW are coming off of good receptions in the wake of their quarterly earnings reports today. We’ll take that into account and keep the following plays on watch:

Tiffany & Co. TIF Weekly $136-140 Calls
DSW, Inc. DSW 09/21 $30-35 Calls

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AAP Recap & More

Advance Auto Parts, Inc. AAP

One of yesterday’s two options ideas that we offered up to our readers, AAP’s daily performance was the most pronounced. The machinations of the stock allowed for notable intraday gain opportunities, on the heels of the company’s Q2 earnings call. Those gains were as follows:

$145 Calls – Range: 8.92-14.55 – Max Gain:  62%
$150 Calls – Range: 4.80-9.67 – Max Gain: 40%
$155 Calls – Range: 2.50-5.40 – Max Gain: 51%

We’ve also caught word of a large share repurchase, so despite the fact that AAP is already in blue skies, we’ll continue to monitor these ideas.


The Home Depot, Inc. HD

The other fresh idea from yesterday’s report were the HD Weekly $195 & 197.50 Calls, and those also managed to produce significant chances for profits on the day.

The $195’s traded in a range from .81-2.46, a gain of 204% while the $187.50’s ran from .39-1.28. That was good for intraday gains of 228%


Energen Corp. EGN

Another longer-term set of ideas we recently offered up, the EGN 09/21 $75 & 77.50 Calls, have also begun to produce results. The $75 Calls gone from  1.10-1.95 (+77%), and the $77.50’straded from .90-1.10 (+22%).

While those are merely marginal moves, the stock is gearing up for another bullish session, gapping up significantly here in the premarket. We expect to see the ranges on these calls extended by a significant margin today.

FRESH OPTIONS IDEAS:
Constellation Brands, Inc. STZ  just purchased an additional $4B stake in Canopy Growth Corp. CGC,putting the beverage manufacturer effectively into the cannabis business. We will signal some calls here in both cases.For STZ, the 09/14 $220 & 222.50 Calls, and for the Canopy chain- the CGC 09/21 $30-40 Calls.
