Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Reviewing Recent Winners

STOCK RECAPS

Much of our focus gets devoted to options ideas these days, as they represent the greatest chance for large short term gains for traders. However, we still scan every day for stocks, and we wanted to begin this new trading week by highlighting a few of our recent picks that have met or exceeded our expectations.

Bio-Path Holdings, Inc. BPTH – Beginning with the least recent, roughly five weeks ago on January 23rd, BPTH was a stock we tagged as a bottom-watch play. The stock essentially traded sideways for the next month, only making nominal gains. That is until the latter half of last week, when it began to heat up on Thursday, and subsequently explode on Friday, performing beautifully on the day. The stock logged the number one gain on the entire NASDAQ, as it traded up from a low of 2.65 before reaching a high of 8.84.

That works out to a mind-melting 234% single-session rise on massive volume, which is extremely uncommon for big board plays. Cheers to anyone who caught a ride on this shooting star!

Lexicon Pharma, Inc. LXRX – Appearing in Friday morning’s report was LXRX, which certainly didn’t see the level of activity as the previously mentioned play, but still posted positive figures on the day. From a low of 5.55, the stock rose as high as 7.07, marking a comparatively small but respectable intraday increase of 27%

China Internet Nationwide Financial Services, Inc. CIFS – Also included in Friday’s report was CIFS, which also had a reasonably strong session following our alert. The low came in at 2.30 before the stock surged into the close at its high of day of 3.25. That represents a solid intraday gain of 41% We’ll also want to see if the stock can carry some of that momentum at the close, over to this fresh trading week.

Funko, Inc. FNKO – Options Review

We also signaled our interest in the FNKO 03/15 $22.50 & 25 Calls on Friday, and we got solid performances out of those contracts. The $22.50 Calls ran from .28-.70 for a gain of 150%
while the $25 also recorded a 150% pop from .10-.25.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Month-Long Runners

Geron Corp. GERN

It was just on Tuesday morning that we did a review of the performance of GERN, a stock we had initially tagged on February 5th. It had made considerable progress over a six week period, and after a fantastic session yesterday, the stock once again shot to new highs.

It ran all the way to an even 5.00, which from the 2.025 low we observed in early February, marks an increase of 147% This week has brought the highest volume, and now the highest PPS since 2015 for GERN. With the stock well into Blue Skies, we’re be interested to continue following its activity.

DURECT Corp. DRRX

Speaking of stocks on our radar that have enjoyed longer-term success, we want to talk about DRRX again this morning. We’ve been tracking this stock since mid-December (12/14), and in two separate runs here in 2018, we’ve seen it make fantastic progress.

We also included DRRX once again at the beginning of this month, and yet again on Tuesday of this week as the stock has continued to push its way further and further upward. This month alone it has risen from 1.2338 to a new high of 2.20, a gain of 78%

Subsequent to our original alert, DRRX registered a low of .875, and from there, yesterday’s high measures as a 151% increase.


NII Holdings, Inc. NIHD

In yet another month-long gainer, we have NIHD. We signaled out interest in tracking this play back on the last day of February and it has been steadily ramping its way up all month long.

We’ve witnessed a run from a low of 1.115, to yesterday’s new high of 2.28, marking a   104% intra-month move.
