Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Review

Adobe, Inc. ADBE – Update

After continued success with SPY calls early this week and persisting through to their expiration yesterday, we issued yet another fresh options idea in yesterday morning’s premarket report for the ADBE chain.

ADBE reported a strong Q2 earnings beat and was looking ripe in the premarket. We signaled our interest in tracking the ADBE Weekly $285-290 Calls and we were exceedingly pleased with the idea’s first day performance, which yielded chances at multi-bag gains.

$289 Calls – Range: 2.94-7.40 – Max Gain: 152%
$289.50 Calls – Range: 1.83-5.25 – Max Gain: 187%
$290 Calls – Range: 1.07-3.51 – Max Gain: 228%

With the markets gapping up hard today, we would expect to see new highs on each of these contract, in which case we will report the final possible gains in tomorrow’s newsletters.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: APP, JNUG Reviews & More

American Apparel Inc. APP

When we began pounding the table on APP on Wednesday this week, it was for good reason. On that day we observed a low of .63. The chart was sending out bullish signals left, right, and center, and yesterday proved to be quite a day as the stock made a 58% intraday move from .72-1.14. That high also marked an overall increase of 81% over the low we witnessed the session prior.

APP is maintaining a majority of those gains, trading above a dollar in the premarket today so we’ve been provided with plenty of opportunity to take profits as the stock is on its way up. It remains to be seen if new CEO Paula Schneider can right the ship over time, but for now APP has given us the chance at some excellent short term gains.

Per the chart, 1.20 and 1.30 appear to be the next key areas of resistance. In order for us to remain interested in APP moving forward, we’ll need to see it maintain support at or above the .85-1.00 range.


Direxion Daily Jr Gld Mnrs Bull 3X ETF (JNUG)

We’ve tracked JNUG regularly this fall, and after tagging it in both Tuesday’s and yesterday’s extended watchlist, this ETF has gained a sizable bit of ground. Tuesday’s low was set at 1.82, meaning that as of yesterday’s high at 2.78, we saw a 53% increase out of JNUG over just a three-session span. That low also marked the 52-week low, so our timing here really couldn’t have been any better.

We also want to note that per a recent PR, Direxion will be enacting a 1-for-10 reverse split of the shares of JNUG on Dec. 23rd (This Tuesday).
