Blue Horseshoe Stocks: SPY Calls, More Options

SPY Review

After big success with SPY options earlier last week, we decided to roll up our strike prices and make another pass at an some options ideas on the fund to open things up this week. A reversal on plans to slap tariffs on Mexican goods is helping to fuel a push for the markets in early trading today.

Our ideas for Friday were the SPY Weekly $285-286 Calls, and we’re happy to report some huge single session, multibag gain opportunities came out of those calls for us.

$285 Calls – Range: 1.18-3.86 – Max Gain: 227%
$286 Calls – Range: .59-2.89. – Max Gain: 393%

In order to stay close to the action, we’re going to want to stick with bullish SPY calls and roll up our strike prices yet again to kick off a new trading week this morning. We’re going to radar the SPY Weekly $288-290 Calls.


MGM Resorts International Inc. MGM – Form-4 Alert 

We always scan for new Form-4 submissions, and MGM is the latest subject of insider trading. A director of the company purchased over $20M in MGM stock three separate times last week. Between the buying from Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, Keith Meister purchased in excess of $75M+ worth of his company’s shares.

That is no small series of transactions, and leads us to believe confidence on the inside at MGm is high that the stock can continue recover off of its recent relative lows. We’re going to signal some longer term calls to correspond with the situation and begin tracking the MGM 08/16 $28-30 Calls.


SPECIAL NOTE: 

We urge readers not to miss out on any of our newsletters this week. We’ve got some plays in cannabis sector that are primed to heat up and we’ll be bringing those to you over the course of the week. You’ll definitely want to catch those, so make sure you’re scanning your inboxes each morning to get in on the action!

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Wrapping Up Big Week for Options

Options Review

We included a pair of options ideas in yesterday’s premarket report, and scored multi-bag hits on both accounts.

We were banking on a third straight bullish day for the markets with our SPY idea, and betting that the huge premarket gap-up on SFIX was unsustainable. In both cases we were correct, and it provided us with the following opportunities:

SPDR S&P500 ETF (SPY) Weekly $283-284 Calls
$283 Calls – Range:
.98-2.81  – Max Gain: 187%
$284 Calls – Range: .57-2.00 – Max Gain: 251%

Today we will be looking to roll up our strike price on the SPY and tracking the SPY Weekly $285-286 Calls*.

Stitch Fix, Inc. SFIX Weekly $31-30 Puts
$30 Puts – Range: 1.40-3.22 – Max Gain: 130%

*Never trade weekly options on Friday, unless you are an advanced level trader with access to disposable funds!


At Home Group, Inc. HOME

HOME just missed on earnings and received an analyst downgrade, but on the hunch that the resultant gap-down was based on overreaction, we’re going to radar a set of contracts in the HOME chain to monitor in the event of a rebound. There is an enormous gap now sitting on the chart just waiting to be filled. We’ll have plenty of time to see that happen with the HOME 09/20 $8-10 Calls.

Turtle Beach Corp. HEAR

This morning to kick things off, we are going to take a look at HEAR, which has gained a bit of momentum over the past couple of sessions after bouncing off a bottom earlier this week. ‘

Technically speaking, the chart has everything we typically look for- a bullish cross of the MACD recently came to pass and we are now seeing clear upward divergence there, and the RSI just cracked the 50-line, indicating that it too is going bullish.

Couple those factors with the convincing surge off of the stock recent relative lows, and we are set up for a possible continuation of momentum, for which we want to be ready with an options idea. We’ll be tracking the HEAR Weekly 10/18 $12.50-15 Calls.

SPDR S&P500 ETF (SPY) Weekly $283-284 Calls
Stitch Fix, Inc. SFIX Weekly $31-30 Puts


Galectin Therapeutics, Inc. GALT – Form-4 Alert

We also want to make mention of GALT, which has been trading sideways near its 6-month lows recently. During this period, we’ve noticed a nearly $20M buy from a GALT insider at these lows.

When this happens we usually like to place a stock on bottom-bounce watch, as it generally tends to suggest that the company director has reason to believe that the stock has reached as low as it’s going to go for the time being.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AMBA Recap & More

Adverum Biotechnologies, Inc. ADVM – Review

When we first brought ADVM into the mix on April 17th, the stock was trading for as little as 5.44, and it has never looked back. We updated readers on its performance a couple of weeks back, and once again this morning, we wanted to circle around to comment on the stock’s strong performance.

Yesterday, which marked the eighth consecutive stair-stepping session in which ADVM posted a higher low, it ran to a brand new high of 11.14. That works out to a total increase of 105% over the low we observed on the morning of our initial alert just over 6 weeks ago.Volume, especially over the last couple of weeks has also been exceptionally high. The stock is is blue skies, and we’re anxious to see where its ceiling will come.


Ambarella, Inc. AMBA

We tagged AMBA in yesterday morning’s premarket report ahead of the company’s quarterly earnings which came later during after market hours. Following a surprise beat, the stock has surged this morning, reaching a premarket high of 46.25. From our observed low of 38.06 that represents a respectable overnight swing of 22%

As you can see on the included chart, the MACD is headed for a bullish cross, and there’s still a large gap to the upside, so we will be tracking AMBA very closely on the heels of this development.

As an added bonus, we’re going to include an options idea for AMBA, the Weekly $42.50-44 Calls.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: LAHO Update & More

Lans Holdings, Inc. LAHO

When we brought LAHO to our readers exactly a week ago today, it was trading at .0005. After just a couple of sessions, it had registered a huge 240% move to a high of .0017. The stock then pulled back .0006 on Friday, and over another two sessions, ran back to .0014. That marks another upswing of 133% bring our four-day cumulative total to 373%

As sub-penny plays tend to do, we would expect to see LAHO continue to bounce around in this fashion. Savvy traders may yet see similar chances to profit, moving forward.


Wellness Matrix Group Inc. WMGR

WMGR is another stock that we wanted to put on our radars this morning. Regular readers of ours may recall that we occasionally include mentions of plays that are suggested to us by our followers themselves, when warranted. Such is the case with WMGR, which was brought to us by David S.

What we’ve got in WMGR is an incredibly low float stock (Just 4M shares!) that has been inching up incrementally on rising volume in recent sessions. We’re going to want to monitor in in the days and weeks ahead, as such low flot plays have the ability to make notable upswings over a relatively short time period.



NAVB & ABIO – Bottom-Bouncers

We also would like to call attention to a couple of stocks that we’ve mentioned on multiple occasions in the past, both in the biotech/pharma space. NAVB and ABIO registered as the NASDAQ’s 2nd and 4th top gainers of the day yesterday. In both cases, this followed considerable sell-offs. NAVB had been in steady decline since early April, and ABIO for the past three weeks.

We want to keep an eye on the situation on the chance that these bottom bounces were not isolated events. We’ll look for NAVB and ABIO to begin to establish higher highs and higher lows in coming sessions.
