Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Bottom-Plays, Options & More

Novavax, Inc. NVAX

Our first item of interest this morning is going to be NVAX. This play set off our alarms on Friday when the stock was downgraded on the heels of ill-received trial data on the company’s RSV (respiratory syncytial virus) vaccine.

Whenever we see knee-jerk reactions take place, and Friday’s backslide of more than 80% certainly qualifies in that category, we like to place the battered stocks on watch for the subsequent recoveries that occur as often as not.

With the monster gap that Friday’s activity left on the chart (1.20’s to 8.10’s), it will be very interesting to see how the stock responds as we kick off a fresh trading week. Prior to that it had been on a fairly steady four month uptrend that almost reached the 100%-mark. All these factors playing in at once are plenty enough to reserve a slot for NVAX on our radars in coming sessions.


Netflix, Inc. NFLX – Options Idea

We’ve tracked NFLX options to great success on multiple occasion in the past, and today seems like a good time to take another run at it. Along with being on the uptrend for the past six or seven weeks, the stock breached its 200DMA in a bullish manner on Friday, a signal that further advances could be in the cards this week. NFLX is gapping up slightly in the premarket this morning.

In accordance, we want to have an options idea ready and waiting to take advantage should a continued surge be in the cards. The targets we want to zero in on are the NFLX Weekly $99.50-101 Calls for potential swing trades.



APT Systems, Inc. APTY

We alerted our readers to a PR put out by APTY on Friday alluding to the planned purchase of shares out of the open market by the company’s CEO. That coincided with a reasonable amount of momentum that the stock had carried into that session from the one prior.

We mentioned that we liked the chances of the stock seeing some further increases for Friday’s session, and we weren’t disappointed on that front. APTY traded in a solid range from .0032 to .0044, a respectable intraday gain totaling 38%

We’ll remain interested in this play provided it can maintain support above Friday’s swing-low of .0032.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: WYNN Recap & More

Wynn Resorts, Ltd. WYNN 

We saw an opportunity to jump on some quick-strike WYNN calls yesterday morning,despite the stock already having made a ten-dollar move to the upside since we first began tracking it at the beginning of the month.  The Macau gaming industry is booming, and the positive outlook has related stocks doing so as well.

We targeted the WYNN Weekly $108-110 Calls and regardless of the chosen strike-point from within that range, hefty single-session gains were there for the taking. All three sets of contracts made major moves:

$108 Calls – Range: .55-2.05 – Max Gain: 272%
$109 Calls – Range: .40-1.58 – Max Gain: 295%
$110 Calls – Range: .20-1.10 – Max Gain: 450%

The stock appears to be consolidating slightly in early trading this morning, but we’ll be on the lookout for further activity in these plays provided it holds support above $108 on the dip.


APT Systems, Inc. APTY

We’ve taken notice of APTY this morning, which has built up a nice little head of steam in recent sessions. The latest run has been helped along by yesterday’s PR that the CEO intends to buy shares out of the open market to increase her position, as well as already having what we consider a tight share structure.

Based on those factors, its positioning on the chart, and the volatility which is characteristic of such a subpenny play, we’re going to want to keep an eye peeled for more solid swings to the upside in sessions to come.


Misonix, Inc. MSON

We’re also looking at MSON this morning, which we like for the setup of the chart. As you can see on the snapshot below,  a major selloff occurred yesterday, and the stock is making its way down to a previous level of support, which we’ve pointed out.

We’ll be looking for it maintain above that $5-level, and some subsequent bounce action. At present the stock is screaming toward heavily oversold territory, so it’ll be interesting to see how it unfolds from here, all things considered.
