Burlington Stores, Inc. BURL – Options Update

We reported our interest in tracking some BURL options in the wake of a strong earnings report yesterday morning, and signaled the BURL 03/17 $85-95 Calls. Just as we suspected, the boost of momentum from that earnings beat provided the fuel for those contracts to put up some impressive performances on the day.

The possible gains so far, which could be augmented today with another bullish move, were as follows:

$85 Calls – Range: 5.60-10.00 – Max Gain: 79%
$90 Calls – Range: 2.50-5.20 – Max Gain: 1084%
$95 Calls – Range: .71-1.93 – Max Gain: 172%

InterCloud Systems, Inc. ICLD

We also want to continue keeping an eye on ICLD, in which volume has been exploding over the past couple sessions as the stock has rebounded off of its 52-week lows.

The stock traded in a relatively modest range from .0157 to .02 (+27%) yesterday, but closed with strength. Especially with the enormous flow of volume at the present time, we’re definitely interested in tracking ICLD’s movements over the next several sessions.

Fresh Options Ideas:

Big Lots, Inc. BIG – Big Lots had a mixed bag earnings report today, missing estimates on sales, but beating on profits. Still, it appears as if BIG could be gearing up for a decent run, so we’re going to highlight a range of options to track- the BIG 03/17 $52.50-57.50 Calls.

Caterpillar, Inc. CAT – On a bearish note, things got ugly for Caterpillar yesterday as multiple federal agencies participated in a massive raid of its offices in relation to a years-long IRS investigation into a billion dollar tax discrepancy. CAT stock took a massive gut punch, and could continue to see hardship as more details of the investigation and possible consequences become available. We’ll be tracking the CAT 04/07 $88-85 Puts, which could fare extremely well if it comes down to fill a gap on its chart which we’ve pointed out below.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: New Highs for VPOR & More

Vapor Group, Inc. VPOR

We caught VPOR for a solid gain on Tuesday, mentioning it in our premarket report before a respectable intraday performance ensued. The stock had run from .00355 to .0053 (+49%) , but we noted that it was part of an emerging bullish pattern, so we kept it on watch yesterday as well.

Once again, this time for the fourth straight session, VPOR managed to record higher lows along with a new high. The stock traded in a range from .0043 to .0068, marking a 58% intraday push, and an overall increase of 92% from our observed low on Tuesday.

We’ll stay hot on VPOR’s trail for as long as it continues to build higher base levels of support.

Lowes Companies, Inc. LOW

We put out a post-earnings options idea on Lowes in yesterday’s report with the LOW Weekly $79-81 Calls and it turned out to be an excellent idea, offering up multi-bag gains across the board inside of the first half hour of trading.

No matter which of the strike points were chosen, quick-strike trades could have yielded the following gains:

$79 Calls – Range: 2.08-5.04 – Max Gain: 142%
$79.50 Calls – Range: 1.67-3.35 – Max Gain: 101%
$80 Calls – Range: 1.29-3.02 – Max Gain: 134%
$81 Calls – Range: 75-3.54 – Max Gain: 372%

Fresh Options Idea

Burlington Stores, Inc. BURL- Speaking of post-earnings beat options plays, we’re going to want to track a range of contracts in the BURL chain following the company strong showing for the quarter which soundly beat Wall Street expectations.

We’re going to want to radar the BURL 03/17 $85-95 Calls. Given the boost from earnings, along with a strong rising wedge pattern on the chart, we like the chances of seeing some nice activity in those contracts.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: QSIM, USRM Updates & More

U.S. Stem Cell, Inc. USRM

We tagged USRM in our report on Monday for the first time in quite awhile, and reported back to our readers yesterday morning on the excellent 72% push it made from .014-.0241. We also mentioned the strength of its close and increased volume, noting that we’d want to continue keeping a close eye on the stock.

Yesterday’s session provided a prime example of why we doubled down on USRM for the second day in a row, with the stock streaking to an impressive new high. It traded up from it low of .0245 and smashed through the nickel barrier, reaching .0545 for a hefty intraday gain of 122%

From our observed low on Monday, the move represented an overall two-day upswing of 289%

QuantumSphere, Inc. QSIM

We noticed some heightened activity in QSIM in yesterday morning’s premarket scan, and included the stock in our extended watchlist for the day. It was a good thing that we did, because the stock put up an awesome performance, continuously ramping its way up the chart for essentially the entire session.

From its early low of .0043, QSIM was shot out of a cannon and reached a high of .011 just prior to the closing bell, for an intraday increase of 156% which came on heavy volume, on the order of seven times the 30-day average.

With such a bullish session, we’re certainly going to want to keep QSIM on tap for further potential moves, be it an immediate continuation of this bullish trend, or a dip-and-rip scenario.

Vapor Group, Inc. VPOR

Rounding off yesterday’s top movers was VPOR. Like the previously-mentioned play, we caught this one on our routine morning scan and took note of an increase in volume and price action in the prior session.

The momentum carried over nicely, with VPOR trading up from a low of .00355 and reaching .0053, for an intraday pop of 49% It marked the third straight day of higher highs and higher lows for the stock, so it too will remain on our watchlist moving forward.

Lowes Companies, Inc. LOW – Options Idea

Lowes joined the earnings bonanza this morning with an impressive set of figures in their Q4 report. We are going to be tracking a range of short-term options to possibly take advantage of the commotion.

Our targets are going to be the LOW Weekly $79-81 Calls.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: FNHI Run Continues, USRM & More

Franchise Holding International, Inc. FNHI

We’ve been tracking FNHI very closely, and it seems each time we update our readers on its performance, it has gone on to set new highs. Yesterday’s session was no exception, as the stock once again hit a new upper limit, and extended our already impressive witnessed range even further.

As we’ve mentioned on multiple occasions now, our initial tag on FNHI came on the 8th of this month, and shortly thereafter we’d observe a low of .0061 in the stock. As of our report yesterday, we had seen a rise to .0449, for an overall move of 636%

We also mentioned that it had closed with strength on Friday, holding most of its daily advance into the close, so we’d want to watch for a continuation of the trend and that’s just what we got. The stock touched a low of .0359 in the morning before making a steady bullish push throughout the day and hitting a new high of .0574. That worked out to an intraday move of 60% and extended our total witnessed range on the stock to an enormous 841% in a matter of roughly three weeks!

U.S. Stem Cell, Inc. USRM

We included USRM in our report yesterday for the first time in several months, and caught it just in the nick of time to have a chance at a very nice intraday gain.

The stock performed exceedingly well, running from an early low of .014, and spending essentially the entire session pressing northward, as it reached .0241 for a daily pop of 72% and closed with a lot of strength at .024, just a tick below the high-of-day. Volume was strong as well, with more than quadruple the 30-day average number of shares changing hands, so we’re definitely going to leave an eye peeled for USRM moving forward.

iBrands Corp. IBRC

Lastly- Despite tanking into the close, IBRC was another stock we were watching yesterday to make a solid move. That move came in the first half of the session where it rose from its morning low of .0036 and reached as high as .0063 around 11:30am.

That represented an intraday upswing of 75% The stock did of course fall off into the close, but that doesn’t mean we’re not still paying attention. The kind of volatility we’re seeing in IBRC can really be leveraged to our advantage with properly timed swing trades that could be up for grabs once the stock finds and bounces off of a solid support level.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: FL, CNXS Recaps & More

Franchise Holding International, Inc. FNHI

On Friday morning, we were giving our readers an update on the stellar performance of FNHI since we’d first called it back on the 8th. subsequent to which time, the stock was trading at a low of .0061.

Not only did FNHI follow it up with a solid intraday pop, but also extended our total observed range in just over three weeks by a significant margin.

Friday, FNHI traded from 0265-.0449 for an intraday push of 69% That new high, measured from our witnessed low, comes out to an overall upswing of 636%

The stock also closed with strength at .0421, holding most of its daily advance, so we’ll be watching it this morning as we prepare to kick off a new trading week.

Connexus Corp. CNXS

Speaking of big movers, our tag of CNXS in Friday’s report came just in the nick of time for us to catch a fantastic intraday performance.

The stock traded up from a low of .0051, cracked through the penny barrier, and reached as high as .0159, for a whopping run of 212% on the day!

That performance marked the third straight session of higher highs and higher lows, so we’re definitely going to be on the lookout for a possible continuation of that trend. Ideally, we’d like to see CNXS hold support at or above Thursday’s swing high of .0092 on any pullbacks.

Foot Locker, Inc. FL – Options Update

We also need to bring readers up to speed on the excellent post-earnings options idea we formulated on Friday for Foot Locker, the FL 03/17 $70-75 Calls.

Those contracts provided daytraders with some cherry opportunities for quick gains with FL’s bullish intraday run from 70.37 to 75.37. The potential profits were as follows:

$70 Calls – Range: 2.00-5.00 – Max Gain: 150%
$72.50 Calls – Range: .95-3.60 – Max Gain: 279%
$75 Calls – Range: .26-2.00 – Max Gain: 669%

Special Note on Bitcoin

Prior to last week, the all time high for Bitcoin was $1160, last week that high was broken, and has been making higher highs since.

Winklevoss Bitcoin Trust ETF (Pending:COIN) is subject to approval. Essentially, if the SEC raises no issues by the end of the comment period, the ETF can move forward unhindered. It has caused an increased interest in the space, and as a result, we’ve got our eyes on stocks like the above-mentioned CNXS, along with others like BTSC and GAHC
