Blue Horseshoe Stocks: APRE Recap, Other Updates & More

Aperture Health, Inc. APRE

When we took a glance at the APRE chart in the premarket yesterday morning, we felt confident that there was a possibility of a continued uptrend carried over from Friday’s big move. Our feelings weren’t misplaced, as the stock recorded another nice intraday run beginning right at the opening bell.

From its starting price of .027 APRE broke out to a high of .0428, which registered as a 59% upswing. We then saw a consolidation into the close, exhibiting the type of volatility we’d mentioned in our report, but notably held support above the .03-mark.

We’re going to look for APRE to continue to build higher base levels of support moving forward. We can imagine a play with such technical characteristics providing us further opportunities in sessions ahead, so we’ll want to keep it on close watch.

Updates on Recent Ideas

We get so caught up with our seemingly innumerable interests at times, that we sometimes find ourselves having to backtrack a bit to provide updates on past ideas. Such is the case with the following stocks:

PCS Edventures!.com, Inc. PCSV, which we tabbed for longer-term watch two months ago to the day, ended up making a beautiful upswing of multi-bag proportions. Subsequent to our alert, we witnessed it trading in a range from .025-.14, a 460% move to the upside.

Skyline Medical, Inc. SKLN is a play that we zeroed in on late last month, and it too yielded a sizable move recently. The stock ran from .17-.29 for a comparatively modest but still very solid 71% spike.

Eyes on the Cannabis Sector

Our regular readers are certainly familiar with our repeated tracking of marijuana-related stocks, a pool from which we’ve pulled a great many big-time gainers in the past. We began drawing attention back to the sector in our reports early this spring, and it has really paid off.

GreenGro Technologies, Inc. GRNH – We’ve come back to this one time and time again over a period of years, but began tracking it more heavily beginning in late February. Since then, the general trend has been in a northerly direction, and over the past month or so, things have really begun to kick in high gear. In that span, we’ve seen GRNH run from a low of .0171 to an amazing ten-cent high yesterday. That’s a 485% swing! The stock has gapped up even further today, as high as .12 so far in the premarket, so it’s definitely occupying a portion of our attention this morning.

Terra Tech Corp. TRTC – We began re-alerting TRTC around the same period in late March at which time we observed a low of .2162 , and our most recent reminder came on April 5th. For this play as well, it has been mostly big moves to the upside since then. Yesterday the stock reached .7455, marking a 245% swing over our observed low.

Other big pot-plays that we dialed up near the end of March included Marijuana Company of America, Inc. MCOA and CannLabs, Inc. CANL. We’ve seen multi-bag moves from them as well, culminating in impressive new highs yesterday. MCOA ran from our observed low of .005 to a new high of .012, a gain of 140% while CANL made a move from .167-.449 for a solid 169% rip.

It’s become increasingly apparent over recent weeks that the cannabis industry heat-up we had anticipated is in full-swing. We’re going to need to stay aware and continue to monitor the entire sector, including stocks such as CANN, and CBDS as spring progresses.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Special Report on APRE

Aperture Health, Inc. APRE – Special Report

Our main area of focus as we kick off this trading week is to take an in-depth look at APRE, which is a new item of interest for us. There are a number of reasons why we like this stock, many of them technical, but before we look at the chart, let’s find out more about the company itself.

We’re very interested in the potential of one of the company’s main projects, but to delve into that we need to track back to September, and its completed acquisition of shipping container manufacturer, CSS Alliance, LLC (>>View PR)

CSS Alliance had previously secured a multi-year, worldwide manufacturing agreement with Intermobile Container, an outfit which has designed a ground-breaking innovation in shipping container technology. Enter its namesake product, the Intermobile Container™(>>Product Website)

We’ll post a link to a detailed product video below, but essentially the Intermobile Container™ is what is known as an intermodal container, meaning that because of its unique design, it can be seamlessly accommodated by road, rail, river, and sea shipping implements. They are fully enclosed containers that lower bulk shipping costs considerably, through their unique design and functional versatility. They eliminate the need for costly storage silos and related service products because the unit itself is a fully-contained, stackable, contaminant-preventing ‘mini-silo’.

The following video describes the technology in greater detail:

APRE‘s core mission to acquire and develop exciting new businesses certainly seems to be fulfilled in the case of CSS Alliance and its involvement with the Intermobile Container™, which we feel has the potential to be a disruptive product in the big business that is bulk shipping.
______

Now down to the technicals; in addition to a few bullish signals on the current APRE chart, we hasten to first point out the characteristics of the underlying share structure. We’d classify APRE as a low-volume, low-float play, and history has taught us that stocks like these have a tendency to trade with the kind of volatility for which we are always on the lookout to take advantage. Stocks of this sort tend to move up on a puff of air, needing relatively little buying pressure to effect a major swing to the upside. Case in point, Friday’s session where a sizable amount of volume flowed into APRE, and just like that- an 80% intraday rip.

You can find a link to the video chart we prepared on APRE below, but here’s a look at a static chart as well. You can see the bullish indicators to which we were referring, with the RSI making a strong move past the 50-line, while the MACD is in the midst of executing a bullish cross.

Even after Friday’s big move, as you can see on the chart, APRE is capable of making some nice swings to the upside so we’ll want to really keep our eyes peeled for the possibility of another breakout over the next several sessions. We’ll also be anxious to monitor progress with regard to the company’s near-term goal of achieving a book value that qualifies for uplisting to the NASDAQ.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: SNTA Recap, Options & More

Synta Pharmaceuticals Corp. SNTA

After catching a PR containing some big merger news for SNTA yesterday morning, we decided to include the stock in our premarket report, and it turned out to be a good decision.

On just under 12X the 3-month average trading volume, SNTA ran from a daily low of .32 up to .45 inside of the first 90 minutes of the session. That registered as a respectable intraday spike of 41% As measured to this morning’s premarket high of .488, that figure is extended to 53%

We’ll have our eyes peeled for another push this morning. The type of volume that we witnessed yesterday coupled with the stock holding more than 50% of its daily gains, puts SNTA into the category of a possible momentum play.

______

Bonus Pharma Watchlist:

We are also going to be monitoring the activity in a couple of other pharma stocks in coming sessions:  Aoxing Pharmaceutical Co., Inc. AXN and Eleven Biotherapeutics, Inc. EBIO

EBIO is reportedly another reverse-merger candidate that caught a wave of momentum on the heels of yesterday’s big news, and AXN is showing a double-bottom signal and has been making headway trading up off of its lows for the past few sessions. We’ll want to monitor both of these plays into next week.

SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) – Fresh Options Idea

It wouldn’t be a typical Friday without a end-of-week options idea, so we’re going to turn to one of our classic targets- the SPY. Here in the premarket we’ve observed a low of 207.58. How we’ll want to play it is this: Should the SPY maintain support at 207.50 or above on any early pullbacks, we’re going to be interested in the Weekly $207.50-208 Calls. In the event it fails to hold support a that point, we’ll look to the Weekly $208-207.50 Puts.

*CAUTION: Trading weekly options on Friday is commonly a very high risk proposition. To be attempted by advanced traders only!

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PBR Options Recap & More

Petroleo Brasiliero SA (Petrobras) PBR – Options Recap

We seem to have an uncanny knack for using the PBR options chain to our advantage, having done that so many times over the past few years that we’ve actually lost count.

Yesterday was no different, as we signaled interest in a pair of contracts that both ended up making appreciable intraday moves. Our highlighted plays were the PBR Weekly $6 $ 6.50 Calls. The 6’s traded in a range from .21-.35 for a gain of 66%, while the 6.50’s ran 49% from .53-.79. Should PBR continue along the bullish path we could see these figures extended even higher.

We also noted an exceedingly large amount of open interest (volume) in the contracts one increment up the chain, so we’ll also be watching the PBR Weekly $7’s for today, and most likely tomorrow as well.

3D Systems Corp. DDD

We began tracking DDD on February 2nd, and despite the Groundhog’s prediction being wildly inaccurate, ours was absolutely spot-on!  We witnessed a low of 7.40 in the stock that morning and have not seen it head lower since. As you can see on the beauty of a chart, it has been virtually one continuous uptrend over the past couple of months.

As of this morning’s premarket high of $18, we’ve witnessed a 143% upswing over the time that we’ve been monitoring the stock. Recent bullish patterns that we’ve highlighted on the chart below seem to indicate the possibility of even more gains from here, so we’ll want to watch closely.

The latest surge of momentum has been helped along by a PR released on Tuesday:


SunEdison, Inc. SUNE

SUNE was a stock that we began monitoring for a bottom several weeks back, however, at the time it appeared that a rebound could be a long way off. We drew our readers attention back to the stock exactly a week ago, and after some more sideways trading, this morning we’re finally catching the break we were looking for.

The investigation which has arguably held the stock back for quite some time, yielded no findings of fraudulent activity, as can be referred to in the following piece >> Read Article @ USA Today

In the premarket we’ve seen the stock gap up more than 50% which means we should be on the lookout for the possibility of a dip-and-rip to start things off today.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Several Updates, New Ideas & More

Linn Co. LNCO & Linn Energy LINE

We often include this related pair together and have mentioned them several times in past reports. Most recently was a week ago today, when we called attention to the fact that their [nearly identical] charts were trading at a relative bottom and looking ripe for a rebound. It didn’t take long for our expectations to come to fruition, with both stocks posting solid performances during yesterday’s session.

LNCO ran from .355-.515 for a move equaling 45%, while LINE did slightly better with a run from .32-.50, representing a  56% intraday upswing.

Rex Energy Corp. REXX

We took notice of the momentum that had built up in REXX yesterday, leading us to include a mention of it in our premarket report. We liked its chances of continuing the pattern it had established on the heels of a purchase agreement announcement, and that’s just what it did.

From a morning low of 1.03 we witnessed REXX run as high as 1.44 shortly after 1PM. That registers as an intraday pop of 40% We’ll continue to keep an eye on this play provided it can maintain support above a dollar on any pullbacks.

______

Added Note: GEVO was another one from yesterday’s report to trade solidly in the morning and early afternoon. The stock made a relatively small 20% intraday move from .25-.30. It’s still hovering around that high early on today, so we’ll be leaving GEVO on our radars also, for the time being.

Oil-Related Plays

We also wanted to remind our readers of the plays we’ve been tracking recently that are tied to big oil:

VelocityShares 3x Long Crude Oil ETN – UWTI
Petroleo Brasiliero SA (Petrobras) PBR

Both have been putting up solid performances with oil having been on a bullish tear in recent sessions. It appears as if many oil stocks are gapping up in the premarket, so we’ll be interested to follow the resultant action in our own oil-related interests. In the case of Petrobras, we want to go ahead and signal a possible options idea: We’ll be looking at observing PBR Weekly $6 & $6.50 Calls over the remainder of the week.

Strikeforce Technologies, Inc. SFOR – Recap

We also want to take a second to comment on the early move made by another of our recent items of interest, SFOR. In the video chart we published, we mentioned needing to see it hold above a specific support level and it managed to do so for the first part of the session. The stock caught a bounce off of the .0026 level and ran 62% intraday to .0042.

That daily high represented an overall new high for us as well. We’ve now seen a total jump of 500% over our observed low of .0007 from the day of our initial alert on March 31st.
