Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Update, New Idea & More

Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. VRX-  Options Update
 
We wanted to circle back to touch upon an update for the VRX 04/22 $32 Calls we initially slated for observation on Tuesday.  VRX trading activity allowed for us to witness a run from 2.90-3.90 that day, for possible gains of up to 35%

We stated as much in yesterday’s morning report, with the added reminder that we felt certain the scope of those gains would increase, and we were spot-on once again.

For the day we observed a move from 4.25-5.25, a relatively modest 24%, however as measured from the low we saw on Tuesday morning, it marked a two-day swing of 81%, so cheers to those of our readers who were following along with us on this play!

Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA – New Options Idea

Up until yesterday’s session, TSLA had been enjoying an epic rally which began in early February, however, that began to fizzle out over the past couple of days. The stock now appears very top-heavy, and that was confirmed by a fall below its 200DMA yesterday.

In the event that this is a protracted backsliding event, we’re going to want to be ready with a corresponding options trading idea.  We’re going to zero in on contracts in the range of TSLA March 24th $220-215 Puts, which qualify as Weekly contracts*, as the markets are closed tomorrow.

*Please remember, trading weekly options contracts on a Friday is an extreme high risk/high reward proposition, and is recommended for highly experienced traders only.

Celator Pharmaceuticals, Inc. CPXX

CPXX was a point of focus for us last Wednesday, when we caught a hot PR hitting the wires, and despite the stock already being up considerably at that point, we were able to glean a healthy 41% gain out of the stock that first day (from a low of 6.44).

As we’ve kept observing the play over the course of the week, we’ve seen a continual stream of higher highs and higher lows, which culminated in a new high of 12.64 yesterday. In exactly one week’s time, we saw CPXX make an overall swing totaling 96%

Great Basin Scientific, Inc. GBSN

We also want to give ourselves a quick pat on the back for calling GBSN to our readers attention via our extended watchlist yesterday. The stock was experiencing highly abnormal activity due to some FDA News and despite gapping up to the extreme, we still saw a dip-and-rip which carried the stock on an intraday run from .222-.29, a 31% swing.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ADMD, VRX Updates & More


Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. VRX-  Options Update
 
When others are behaving as if the sky is falling, namely the analysts over at Piper Jaffray who recently blasted VRX, we’re on the lookout for for opportunities. We didn’t go along with the crowd, and went bullish on the embattled stock, and it turns out we had the winning hand.

We called Monday’s 52-week low the bottom, at least for the time being, and signaled the VRX 04/22 $32 Calls for observation. VRX had a boomer of a recovery session, running from 29.01 back to 32.05, and as a result our tracked contracts enjoyed a sizable intraday increase.  From a low of 2.90 they reached 3.90, a healthy 35% pop, and granted the fact that the stock appears ready to gap-up this morning, we expect that figure to expand appreciably.

Advanced Medical Isotope Corp. ADMD

This familiar stock was one of a pair of plays that stood out from the rest on yesterday morning’s extended watchlist. We’ve tracked this play on and off for well over a year, and came back to it at a good time to take advantage of the chart it’s been building.

We witnessed an intraday run from .003-.0042, marking a move of 40% which occurred on the heaviest recorded volume in almost a year, and the fourth consecutive session of higher highs and higher lows.

We also prepared a video presentation of the charts of each of the preceding plays:

Pan American Goldfields, Ltd. MXOM

We also had MXOM appear in yesterday’s watchlist, and it too enjoyed a modest but noteworthy move on the day. It went up from a low of .0068, reaching a high of .009. That worked out to a 32% intraday performance on approxiamtely qudruple the average monthly average volume.

KollagenX Corp. KGNX – Possible Bottom Bouncer

We’re going to pin KGNX to our tracklist today as well after noticing the stock showing signs of life off of its recently established 52-week low. We’ve highlighted the pertinent indicators on the chart below, and will continue to track its progress provided it continues to build higher base levels of support.

ML Capital Group, Inc. MLCG – Update
 
The first thing we want to do today is take a look back to Thursday morning at a play we designated for observation in our watchlist.

MLCG has followed up our alert with three consecutive sessions of higher highs and higher lows. On Thursday, we witnessed the stock changing hands at .0008, and yesterday we saw it reach a high of .0014. That marks a laudable three-day swing of 75% with very heavy volume coming in over that time-span.

We’ll continue to monitor MLCG for a continuation of the bullish pattern we’ve seen established thus far.

Special Reminders:

Axion Power International, Inc. AXPW
& Skyline Medical, Inc. SKLN

Now, we’d like to reiterate our opinion of both of these [unrelated] stocks, which we recently presented as bottom-watch plays.

Each one is still giving us the impression that their rebounds could occur soon, so we just wanted to remind our readers that these plays are still on our radar. In both cases, the stocks appear heavily oversold and ripe to begin a significant recovery, so let’s not let them fall by the wayside just yet.

Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. VRX-  Options Idea

We’ll close out this morning’s report with our first fresh options idea of the week. We’ve been watching over the past week as the stock has taken a real pounding, falling from just below the $70-level to below the $30-level.

We’re going to signal a set of contracts with an extended expiration period, the VRX 04/22 $32 Calls, which will give us plenty of time in which to see the stock put some distance between itself and the newly-established 52-week low it saw yesterday.

Extended Watchlist:
MXOM, FABU, DXMM, PPCH, ADMD, CGRW, ROX(Form-4 Bottom-Watcher)
