Blue Horseshoe Stocks: GRLT Recap, Options Ideas & More

Healthy & Tasty Brands Corp. GRLT

In Friday’s morning report, we tagged GRLT, a super-subpenny play, for observation and the stock did make a nice initial move right out of the starting gate. It had been continually building a higher base level of support since the end of August, and continued that trend as it ran from .0005-.0007; a 40% jump. The move came on approximately 3X the 3-month average volume, and GRLT did manage to hold a PPS of .0006 into the close.

This is one that we’ll continue to watch for possible intraweek swing-trade opportunities in the near future. As we mentioned in Friday’s report, we’ll need to see it maintain support at or above the current 50DMA of .0004 in order for it to hold our attention moving forward.

Amazon.com, Inc. AMZN – Options Update

One of our main points of focus on Friday was an idea we formulated for the AMZN options chain. Looking at the activity on the AMZN chart as it was breaking out, we came up with an extended-term target of the AMZN 10/16 $550 Calls and we saw some immediate response from those contracts. They traded in a daily range from 10.17 up to 11.89 marking a solid 17% increase.

If AMZN can continue its uptrend to the point of testing it’s annual highs, our targeted Calls will be pushed deep into the money, and in that case, would produce further opportunities down the road.

Apple, Inc. AAPL _ Options Idea

AAPL is gapping up this morning on positive pre-sale numbers for the new iPhone 6S Plus, and we’re going to go ahead and formulate an idea for some possible intraday/intraweek options-trading opportunities.

We want to signal our interest in AAPL Weekly $115-116.50 Calls on the heels of what could be a potential dip-and-rip scenario on the chart. Either way, we’ll be watching AAPL activity closely as we kick off this new trading week.

Extended Watchlist:
TBEV, ATHI, SANP, BPMX, ZUMZ(New 52-wk lows)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ZSPH Takeover Rumors & More

ZS Pharma, Inc. ZSPH

We’ve noticed some abnormal activity coming out of ZSPH yesterday on the heels of supposed talks of a takeover by Actelion,Ltd (ALIOY). The stock had already been in a general uptrend since the end of August, and really took off on confirmation from the company that it had indeed entered into talks to possibly be taken over in what it referred to as a ‘strategic transaction’.

When stocks surge so rapidly on non-material news, there’s always a good chance for seeing a classic dip-and-style style formation on the chart, so that’s what we’re going to be on the lookout for in this case.

To help us leverage the activity in ZSPH to our greatest advantage, we’ll formulate a corresponding options idea to monitor for intraday strike opportunities. Out specific target range will be ZSPH Weekly $75-85 Calls. We had monstrous success with some of our other recent options ideas, we’ll look to ZSPH to help us finish out this holiday-shortened week on a high note.

Bottom Watch Plays

Net Element, Inc. NETE –

The NETE chart has caught our eye this morning as one with the potential to produce a promising recovery play. The stock is trading at relative lows, having just logged it’s annual bottom last month. There is also a clear-cut example of a double-bottom formation on this chart, so we’re going to tag this stock for extended observation.

____

Great Basin Scientific, Inc. GBSN

We’ve been tracking GBSN in hopes of catching its eventual bottom, and as of today we’re still waiting. We don’t want to let it slip off of our radars, however, because the chance for a hefty rebound when solid support is ultimately established is very high. The chart has recently reached egregiously-oversold territory as we’ve pointed out below. We’ll look for it to begin building higher lows and kick off its recovery.

Amazon.com, Inc. AMZN – Options Idea

We also want to formulate a quick options idea for AMZN. The stock is trading way below analyst estimates, so we’re going to be tracking a little bit of a longer-term idea. We want to keep a close watch over the 10/16 $550 Calls.(Last traded @ 10.17)

In order for us to remain interested in those contracts, we’ll want to see AMZN maintain support no lower than 499.74 (50DMA). In the event that it fails to hold above that threshold, we’d need to roll our strike price down to the $525’s of the same expiration date.

Grillit, Inc. GRLT – Super Subpenny on Watch

We’ve also identified a few bullish characteristics on the GRLT chart. This super-subpenny play has the look of a stock that could possibly break out. If it can maintain its PPS at a level no lower than the 50DMA of .0004, we’ll keep this one on watch for potential move in forthcoming sessions.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ASTI, CCTC Recap & More

Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. ASTI

We’ve been watching ASTI closely over the past week or so as it’s traded up off a relative bottom on the chart. The stock has now strung together three consecutive sessions of registering higher highs and higher lows, including a nice intraday performance yesterday following the reminder in our premarket report.

From a daily low of .266, the stock traded as high as .35; a 33% swing, and an overall move of 84% over Friday’s low of .19. On any pullbacks from this point, we’ll need to see ASTI maintain a minimum level of support at or above the current 50DMA of .28 in order to keep our attention.

Clean Coal Technologies, Inc. CCTC

The other standout from yesterday’s morning report also came off of the extended watchlist in the form of CCTC, and it was a fairly steady runner for the majority of the session. The stock saw an early morning low of .45, and proceeded to trade as high as .64, marking a solid 42% intraday rip. Cheers to anyone who caught that timely alert.

We suggest our readers take a look at an article we found on CTCC, and the unique opportunity it presents as the coal industry is close to collapse. Lower natural gas prices have decimated coal, and the technology Pristine-M, conditions low-quality coal to improve energy output and in turn, boost the value of the product. >>> Read Article

Pazoo, Inc. PZOO

We were excited to see the content of yesterday’s news release from PZOO, which we posted on BlueHorsehoeStocks.com yesterday morning, as it pertains to the company’s continued exploration of opportunities in the legal cannabis sector. The announcement actually has the potential to generate business from countless other industries as well.

The technology highlighted by Pazoo is a “patented water conservation product, which guarantees at least a 10%, to as much as a 30%, savings in commercial property owner’s water bill.” We’re very excited about the possibilities that lay ahead as the establishment of this product continues, and will be sure to keep our ear to the tracks for further updates.

We also want to remind our readers that PZOO will be presenting in a special cannabis investor webcast at www.cannawebcast.com today, Thursday, September 10 at 11:00AM Eastern. We’ve provided links to both yesterday’s press and the webcast below:

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: SPY Options Recap & More

SPY Options Update

We were so spot-on with our options alert on the SPY in yesterday’s premarket report, that we feel it necessary to quote our alert verbatim. We stated: “With another reversal appearing likely with this morning’s gap-up in the markets, we’ll want to swing our attention in the opposite direction. The SPY generally trades inversely to the UXVY, thus we’ll be monitoring SPY Weekly $195-197 Calls in the event of a continued uptrend signal.”

We certainly hope a good number of our readers were able to catch that, as every single one of the contract sets in our targeted range could have facilitated sizable gains on the session. Here’s a breakdown of the possibilities:

$195 Calls – Daily Range: 2.05-3.50 – Max Gain: 71%
$195.50 Calls – Daily Range: 1.75-3.15 – Max Gain: 80%
$196 Calls – Daily Range: 1.48-2.80 – Max Gain: 89%
$196.50 Calls – Daily Range: 1.25-2.45 – Max Gain: 96%
$197 Calls – Daily Range: 1.01-2.15 – Max Gain: 113%

In order to take advantage of the SPY moving forward, we’ll need to see a continued boost in stocks. In that event, we may look to roll our strike prices closer to the money, namely the Weekly $198-200.50 Calls.

Apple to Announce iPhone 6S Plus – Options Idea

With Apple officially announcing the release of the iPhone 7 today, which is slated to go on sale at the end of next week, we’re going to want to stay ready for the possibility of an options play to one side or the other. We’ll need to guage public reaction to the new phone; an underwhelming product could result in a PPS decline for AAPL, in which case we’d be monitoring Weekly $112-50-114.50 Puts. In the event of a mainly positive reaction, of course, we’d flip that idea to the Call-side in the same strike price range.

Akebia Therapeutics, Inc. AKBA

AKBA is undergoing a mega gap-up in premarket trading today, largely due to yesterday’s after-hours report of positive Phase II study results. We’ll look to possibly take advantage of the situation; with such a rapid move up, it leaves AKBA open to a dip-and-rip pattern on the chart when sellers come out of the woodwork to take profits off of the table.

We’ve pointed out the previous swing highs as levels at which AKBA will need to maintain support on the dip, in order for us to remain interested:

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Fresh News from PZOO

Pazoo, Inc. PZOO

We just wanted to post a quick reminder for our readers to check out the new PR coming out of the PZOO camp this morning. We’ve been following this company’s foray into the legal cannabis market since April, and this is one of the more exciting releases we’ve seen thus far!It has far-reaching ramification for the marijuana growing industry, as well as any commercial property owners.

Pazoo Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, CannabisKing Distribution, Adds A Revolutionary One-Of-A-Kind Patented Water Conservation Product

WHIPPANY, N.J., Sept. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — Pazoo, Inc. (OTC: PZOO), is pleased to report that 100% wholly owned subsidiary CannabisKing Distribution, LLC, has added another product offering. This product is a one-of-a-kind patented water conservation product, which guarantees at least a 10%, to as much as a 30%, savings in commercial property owner’s water bill. There is also the benefit of significant conservation of water as well. Pazoo calls this product “The Green Valve.”

There is proof of concept as this product has been installed into more than 1,000 accounts already, and has proven to work as advertised. The product is not for single family residential use. Instead, this product is designed for office buildings, apartment complexes, Universities, irrigation centers, grow facilities and similar high consumption water users. It provides measurable savings on a product that is maintenance free, and basically invisible once installed. Pazoo became a distributor of this product just this week and already has garnered the interest from numerous potential accounts.

This product is so well received because it is proven with actual results. Some facility owners have experienced a return on investment in as low as four months. The savings are dramatic even if only a 10% savings is achieved. For example a building with a $500,000 per year water bill will achieve a minimum of a $50,000 per year savings. Some facilities Pazoo is talking with have water bills in the $2 to $5 million dollar range per year. This product is ideal for all marijuana grow facilities, especially in the western United States where drought conditions are persistent as this product also conserves water.

David Cunic, CEO of Pazoo, states, “This Green Valve is an absolutely amazing product that we feel very strongly about. There is not a single grow facility that should not have this installed. Frankly, there is not a single business that has a water bill of $50,000 or more per year that should not have this installed as this savings goes straight to a company’s bottom line. In fact, we welcome anyone seeing this press release that has a water bill or knows someone with a water bill of $50,000 or more a year to call us at 973-884-0136. We expect to close on our first accounts for this state-of-the-art product very soon.”

Testimonials:

“We are reducing our line item for water and sewer charges by $50,000 (from $240,000 to $ 190,000), based upon savings realized over past 2 years after installation of your product.”
– Bob P., GM Grand Central at Kennedy

“We have purchased and installed 12 valves in our apartment properties over past 6 months. Savings have ranged from 11% to 23%.”
– Greg C.T.R.C. Management Co.
