Blue Horseshoe Stocks: NUGN Recap & More

NuGene International, Inc. NUGN

We came back to NUGN just in the nick of time yesterday, to start the week off on a high note. We identified the stock’s finding of support on Friday after a recent backslide, and pointed out the significance of yesterday’s PR. We postulated that the concurrence of those events could lead to a rebound on the chart, and  the stock followed our expectations to the letter.

From a low of 1.66, the it traded up to a high-of-day at 2.30; that’s an intraday pop of 39% We’ll be in the lookout for a protracted rebound out of NUGN as it attempts to regain the considerable amount of ground that it’s lost over the past month. We’ll want to see the stock maintain support at or above last Wednesday’s swing-low of 1.92 on any pullbacks in order for us to remain interested.


Pazoo, Inc. PZOO

Speaking of coming back to familiar stocks at an opportune time; we want to turn our attention back to PZOO this morning. In addition to releasing a PR containing information about the early success of wholly-owned subsidiary CannabisKing’s ‘Accuvape’ line (PR Below), the chart has reached a point where a rebound appears imminent.

As we’ve pointed out below, the stock has maintained what we’ve come to recognize as a base-level of support at .0045, and is beginning to show signs that yet another recovery is in the cards. Recent activity qualifies PZOO as a ‘Double Bottom’ (>>Investopedia Definition) which lends support to that conclusion. We’ll be watching the trading action in PZOO heavily this week as a result.

WHIPPANY, N.J., Aug. 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Pazoo, Inc. (OTC Pinks: PZOO), is pleased to report that 100% wholly owned subsidiary CannabisKing Distribution, LLC, in just one week after training, completes multiple sales for the AccuVape product line in Nevada, Colorado, New Jersey and New York. After such an initial sales success, CannabisKing has lined up dozens of sales calls over the next few weeks, most from new client referrals.  CannabisKing is confident they will be able to introduce the AccuVape line to a larger market share, nationally. >>VIEW FULL PR

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Fresh News Plays & More

Fresh News Plays

We’ve got a couple of stocks that we’ve been tracking this summer coming out with noteworthy press in the early hours this morning, we’re going to want to increase our alertness level for each of them as we kick off a new trading week.

NuGene International, Inc. NUGN –  NUGN is appearing in the news feed with a substantial revelation at an opportune time this morning. The stock took an absolute beating last week, and just began to find its footing off of a previous support level on Friday. At the moment the stock is extremely oversold. Coupling that with the addition of this morning’s PR announcing the company’s Q2 revenue growth of more than 150% over the prior year, conditions could be just right for a rebound. We’ll be on a sharp lookout for that possibility.

AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc. AVEO

AVEO stock is gapping up immensely in premarket trading on the strength of a deal the company just announced with Novartis. The potential for both a momentum play and/or a bounce play is elevated. We’ll need to see it maintain support at or above 2.20 (a previous resistance point) on any pullbacks to remain interested. With high profile news like this, it’s quite possible that it will do so.

AVEO Oncology (AVEO) today announced an exclusive, worldwide license agreement with Novartis for the development and commercialization of AVEO’s first-in-class, potent, humanized inhibitory antibody targeting growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15), AV-380, and related antibodies>>>Full PR


Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA – Options Idea

We’d like to submit a potential options trading idea to start the week. Morgan Stanley has raised their price target on the stock (Currently valued in the mid-$250’s) from $280 to $465, and TSLA is gapping up on the heels of that announcement. As a result, we see the potential for some intraday and/or intraweek trading opportunities in the range of TSLA Weekly $250-265 Calls.

OncoNova Therapeutics, Inc. ONTX

ONTX is hitting the scanner as a premarket gapper this morning, on the heels of a PR announcing a “pivotal” Phase III drug trial. (>>View PR)

The stock’s 1-year analyst price target of $5 doesn’t seem all that far-fetched, especially if ONTX can break past resistance in the channel between 3.00-3.25 as we’ve outlined on the following chart snapshot. Also looking ripe are the RSI which is creeping toward the 50-line, and the MACD in the midst of bullish cross.

We’ll continue to keep an eye on the stock today and into next week.


Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA – Options Idea

To carry on our recent tradition of presenting weekly options ideas on Friday (which has yielded us some truly epic gains), we have TSLA. Remember, trading weekly contracts so close to expiration carries added risk, so we always need to exercise extra caution when doing so.

The stock is responding well to news that the company’s share offering would be increased to nearly 2.7M shares, or $642.5M. As a result of this increased activity, we’ve identified the range in which the heaviest action is likely to occur in the event of a sustained uptrend.

Our main target area will be TSLA Weekly $242.50-247.50 Calls. We’ll of course begin with the lowest strike price, which is currently in the money, and roll it up from there as needed, depending on how the day’s trading activity unfolds.


Potential Bottom-Play

Pacific Sunwear of California, Inc. PSUN – We also want to quickly make mention of PSUN, which we’ve noticed has come down to new 52-week lows. As our regulars our well aware by now, these sorts of plays have been an area of extreme success lately. Just take a look at the chart to see what we mean. This is a stock that is sorely due for a rebound, and we intend to be watching closely for when that occurs.
