Bllue Horseshoe Stocks: JCP, RNBI & More

JC Penney Co., Inc. JCP

To kick off the week, we placed JCP on watch via Monday’s Extended Watchlist, so let’s finish things off by taking a look at what happened this week. We saw a consolidation down to 8.18 before the earnings release hit the wires yesterday, after which time the stock began to soar.

Already in pre-market trading today the stock has bounced back to hit a high of 10.15, so we’ll be anxious to see what can happen if the stock can break past this mark which also coincides with a recent swing high in November/December.

The 8-K filed contained both increased quarterly figures as well as guidance for 2014, and things seem to be headed in a positive direction overall, so we’ll continue to monitor JCP over the foreseeable future.

Rainbow International Corp. RNBI

Noticing a sizable increase in volume in RNBI during a routine scan on Wednesday prompted us to put it on yesterday morning’s watchlist, and it turned out to be a beneficial decision. We would see the stock spike from a low of .18 running to .24, giving traders a chance to bank up to 33% intraday.

A stock that was trading by appointment only prior to its big rise in volume this week, gaining this much ground on the chart demands the highest level of caution for those who’ve yet to exit their position.

Added Side Note:

We just want to take a minute to address a cautionary statement by influential hedge fund manager David Tepper yesterday, regarding his overall sentiments toward current market conditions. His warning to traders to avoid going too long at the moment, sent ripples through the investment community, and the overall markets saw a pullback (leading to a spike in the VIX/VXX).

Occurrences such as this can be used to profit no matter which way things go; depending on how the public reaction is going to play out, we will be looking to adjust our strategy by trading options on either the SPY, in the event that things turn back to the bullish side rather quickly, or the VIX, should we see a sustained downturn.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ACGX, SKYF & Extended Watchlist


Alliance Creative Group, Inc. ACGX

We’re looking to ACGX once again this week- If you recall, back in April this stock brought us chances for significant gains as it ran 100% from .0055 up to .011.

We followed up early this month where we put the a stock on bottom-watch. Since then, it has consolidated down to find that solid support we were looking for at .0035 and has begun to rebound.

Yesterday ACGX cracked back above its 50DMA at .005, and that’s where we’d like to see support hold from here. There’s some key resistance coming up in the .007-.008 range; if ACGX can make a move back to pennyland, it will spell gains of 65% or more, so we definitely want to continue monitoring this play in upcoming sessions.

We’ve prepared a short video presentation of the chart, click below and take a look:


SKY440, Inc. SKYF

Congratulations are in order for anyone following along with our call of SKYF earlier in the week. After making a 100% intraday run from .0012 to .0024 following our initial alert, the stock came back to bounce off of support at .001 yesterday morning. It subsequently ran back to .0018, tacking on another 80% to the gains we’d already observed.

One of the things we’re not crazy about with SKYF is the Caveat Emptor status designated to it over at OTCMarkets.com. We’d like to see that info get updated, although there has been no indication that the process is underway.

In the meantime, chart-wise, key resistance in the .0022-.0024 range must be broken, or we’ll consider taking profits off of the table and moving on. Additionally, support will need to continue to hold at or above .001 to keep SKYF an item of interest.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AAPL, PTX, ARTX & Extended Watchlist

A Word on the Apple-Beats Rumor

If you read or watch the news, chances are you’ve caught wind of the rumors surrounding Apple’s potential acquisition of Beats Electronics, purveyor of the vastly popular Beats by Dre brand of upscale headphones and speakers. It has certainly sent investors scrambling in recent days, as people attempt to ascertain the effects of a proposed $3.2B deal that would trump any of Apple’s acquisitions to date.

Price targets from some analysts are ranging from $600 to over $750/share when all is said and done. We’re not in the game of speculating that far ahead, but given the current conditions of the chart, if AAPL can break its previous swing high of $604.40, we could be in for another major run.

Some of our longer-term readers might recall latter half of last year, when we achieved possible percentage gains numbering in the thousands trading AAPL options as the stock trended up for several months culminating in December.

As with any rumor, we always need to consider the possibility that one or both parties will back away, but assuming it does go through, it could be one of the top stories in finance for many months to come. The deal would make Dr. Dre the world’s first hip-hop billionaire, and would conceivably outfit many if not all future Apple devices with one of the more popular names in audio.  This is definitely a storyline that we feel is worth following, so stay tuned.

Pernix Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. PTX

We’ve got PTX on watch today after a morning PR (PERNIX Signs Agreement to Acquire TREXIMET® Tablets for Migraine From GSK) has caused the stock to gap up over 40% in morning trading to its highest levels since March.

In situations like these, we often see a couple of things; after the upward momentum has died out the stock could be a target for shorters. Profit-takers can also contribute to a reversal, which always has the possibility of allowing us to take advantage of dip-and-rip opportunities.

______

Arotech Corp. ARTX

ARTX is another gapper, continues to rise in pre-market trading today on the strength of increased earnings outlined in a post-market PR yesterday.

The situation remains the same as previously mentioned; we like to monitor these types of plays, because sniping gains from stocks in this situation has become our bread-and-butter. No volatile run can sustain itself indefinitely, always leading to a subsequent course correction, and we like to lay in wait for the perfect time to pounce.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Updates on BFLX & SKYF, Extended Watchlist

Yesterday’s two momentum plays both fared extremely well, collectively allowing us the chance to bank more than 200% in cumulative intraday gains. Read ahead for an update of those performances:

Bioflamex Corp. BFLX

BFLX opened at .0009, and dipped as low as .0007 before closing out the day at the high of .0013, marking an overall intraday move of  86%

As you can plainly see on the intraday chart below of BFLX’s trading activity, there were several swings on the day, which actually tallied cumulative gains of 153%

The stock closed up 44% on the day, and did so on over 425 million shares traded. That’s the kind of momentum that is strong enough to sustain multi-day runs, so we’ll be on the lookout for that. There will be a point where profit-taking will drive the price back down, where we can be ready to time a dip-and-rip, if that’s the scenario with which we are presented.

In order to keep our interest, BFLX will have to hold support in the .0007-.0009 range.

__________

SKY440, Inc. SKYF

 SKYF started out the day yesterday at .0013 and briefly dipped as low as .0012 before going on a romp, reaching a high of .0024, which marked a chance for a 100% intraday gains.

The stock closed at .002, up 54% on the day with 569 million shares trading hands, another example of the extreme liquidity that we like to see. For us to remain interested in this play, we’ll need to see support hold off of yesterday’s lows of .0012.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: BFLX, SKYF, OBJE & Extended Watchlist

Bioflamex Corp. BFLX

Over the weekend, we were conducting a search for some momentum plays to monitor this morning, and came across BLFX, a sub-penny stock which has just recently awakened from a relatively dormant period. These types of plays, while highly volatile, have definitely provided us with opportunities in the past.

After breaking a previous resistance level, the 200DMA (.0006), the stock held above that mark on Friday. A heavy influx of buying has come in over the past couple of trading days, and it closed out last week in full-on momo-mode.

Today, we’ll need to see BFLX maintain support above the 200DMA, and crack though the psychological barrier at .001 in order for us to remain interested in this play.

SKY440, Inc. SKYF

In the course of another of our routine weekend scans, we caught wind of another runner. SKYF has had significant momentum building up over the past couple of sessions, so this is going to be one that we want to keep on our watchlist as trading for the week commences.

As we point out on the chart below, all indicators are looking bullish and like the aforementioned play, SKYF is another one that we’ll need to see hold support above the .0006-level to hold our attention.

OBJ Enterprises, Inc. OBJE

We tagged OBJE as a bottom watch play on Friday, and like clockwork, the stock came down to find support at .04, and would subsequently bounce back to .0545, for a 36% positive intraday move.

Today, we’re looking for higher highs and higher lows out of OBJE to confirm a sustained uptrend.
