Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Bottom Watch Plays

Inspired Entertainment Inc. INSE

The markets had a really rough go of things on Friday which caused problems for many, if not most, stocks. INSE was among those few that managed to buck the trend, as the stock continued to exhibit bottom-bounce characteristics. That’s why we wanted to place INSE on recovery watch, just on the heels of its quarterly report.

The overseas virtual sports gaming company relayed considerable revenue growth for the period, while outlining its intent to penetrate further into the North American markets. INSE is going to be an interesting play to watch into the New Year, as it already received positive feedback from a trial run with the Pennsylvania lottery.

InSys Therapeutics, Inc. INSY

Speaking of bottom plays, the similarly-designated INSY also just caught our eye this morning with an attractive bottom-play setup in the works.

As you can see from the included snapshot of this one, the stock is quite oversold, and has established a fairly solid level of support from which a considerable rebound may be possible.

Blue Horseshoe Stock: Tech Options Plays

TECH OPTIONS

We’re seeing a bit of a rebound in the markets this morning after they once again got crushed yesterday. Partially due to a better-than-expected economic report on Durable Orders, we’ll look for the highest profile companies with fresh earnings out that appear set to move this morning.

TSLA and MSFT both dropped their reports in after-market hours yesterday, and look to be our most promising potential targets today.

The tech sector as a whole was among the hardest hit in the recent spate of losses for domestic stocks, with many, if not most of its players being beaten back to unsustainably low levels, so the timing is actually quite good for some solid movement off of these earnings reports.

We expect a market recovery to provide us with plenty of chances to take advantage of all of these underpriced stocks as they rebound in the days and weeks ahead.

TSLA Weekly $310-317.50 Calls
MSFT Weekly $104-107 Calls

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: TGT Review & More


Target Corp. TGT

For a fresh set of options ideas yesterday morning, we had signaled the TGT Weekly $87.50-89 Calls for observation after the company recorded its best quarterly figures in a decade.

Despite posting a red candle on the day, the early activity in the stock was sufficient to provide our selected options contracts with the juice to make some respectable intraday rips.

$87.50 Calls – Range: .70-1.50 – Max Gain: 114%
$88 Calls – Range: .55-1.22 – Max Gain: 122%
$88.50 Calls – Range: .43-.95 – Max Gain: 121%
$89 Calls – Range: .14-.40 – Max Gain: 186%

FRESH IDEAS:

We’ll continue to stick with big name earnings plays as long as they’re on the table. Earnings related options trading has become our bread and butter, and for good reason. As TGT proved yesterday, we don’t even need for these stocks to close in the green to give us what we’re looking for- all we need is the right early morning activity.

Today we’ve got a pair of fresh ideas that also just reported earnings. We’re going to be monitoring the Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. BABA Weekly $180-185 Calls, and the Williams-Sonoma, Inc. WSM 09/21 $67.50 & $70 Calls.
