Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Momentum Play & More

Vision Plasma Systems, Inc. VLNX

We’ve got a sub-penny momentum play on our hands this morning in the form of VLNX. This volatile trader has been swinging violently over the past few months, sometimes more than a hundred percent at a time.

We’re going to have our eyes on VLNX as we close the book on another trading week; the stock came from beneath .001 yesterday and began to run, hitting a daily high of .0017. As you can see on the included chart below, a move past that point would open the door on much larger gains.

When VLNX has surged in recent months, it has routinely peaked in the .002-.004 range. A run back to those levels from here would provide a good chance for quick profits, and chart indicators are showing a forthcoming spike to be a distinct possibility.

FTE Networks, Inc. FTNW

We saw some action from FTNW after including it in yesterday’s report, as the stock offered up the opportunity for modest gains on the order of 23% intraday from .0303 to .04.

While the chart data shows that the stock hit highs in the .055-.065 range, those were what we refer to as “fat-finger prints”; blocks of such small volume so as to make them insignificant, since it would have been impossible to exit any sizable position at those prices.

Still, gains of up to 23%, which were possible, are nothing to thumb your nose at.

SGMS, ARNA, FSI, ARRY, PBR($16 calls for next week)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: CNAT, Options Ideas & Extended Watchlist

Conatus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. CNAT

CNAT is a stock that we first discovered as an FDA play back in early December, when one of the company’s treatments had been granted orphan drug status.  At the time, the stock was trading at less than $5 a share, and by January, we saw a huge run that took it over $14.

It brought a few other swings in the following months, but had fallen to the back burner for quite some time as it consolidated. Yesterday it set off our alarms once again, springing back to life and running hard on heavy volume, so once again CNAT has our full attention.

After reaching as high as 9.90 during yesterday’s session, we’ll be on the lookout for possible dip-and-rip opportunities. We’d like to see support hold in the 8-8.50 range moving forward and if it can do that, chances to score quick strike gains on the bounce could be present.

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR – Options

The PBR options chain has been a veritable cash cow for us this year as many of you already know, and we’ll continue to talk about it for as long as it continues to work in our favor. Yesterday was no letdown, as

All of the Call contracts that we’ve been monitoring ($14-15 Weekly Calls and the 07/19 $15 Calls) have been rocking, providing us with several shots at alarmingly high returns.

If PBR breaks over this morning’s pre-market high of 15.90, we may look to roll our strike price up to $16 (Possibly the 07/03 $16’s which closed @ .36 yesterday) and with how far the latest trend has taken us, we wouldn’t be too surprised to see that happen.

Extra Options Idea: Molson Coors Brewing Co. TAP

The TAP October $75 Calls showed an abnormal amount of trading activity yesterday, causing us to raise an eyebrow. Just for good measure, we’re going to throw those contracts up on our radar and monitor the situation.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: INCC Update, AAPL, NEWL & Extended Watchlist

International Consolidated Companies, Inc. INCC

Our anticipation of a possible dip-and-rip scenario on INCC yesterday proved to be warranted, and the stock actually provided us with a number of intraday swings.

To start the day off, the stock made two significant moves, each time running 25% from .0032-.004. Toward midday we witnessed another dip to .003, and a subsequent rip on up to .0039, adding another 30% in potential gains. Finally, we saw one last swing from .0033-.0039, an 18% move, which brought our possible gains for the session to a cumulative total of 98%

INCC put in quite a good performance for a first day alert, and we’ll monitoring this one as the week progresses for the same type of volatility that offered us those chances to profit on Monday.

Apple, Inc. AAPL

Last Wednesday, we commented on the Apple-Beats rumor, as well as speculating that AAPL could be in for a run-up, and that has certainly come to pass. Our call of 604.40 as a pivot point proved accurate, as we stated that a break of that level had the potential to give way to more significant gains.

That brings us up to yesterday’s session, where AAPL went on to set a new 52-week high at 607.33. We expect AAPL Calls to continue to do well in the midst of this uptrend, and as our regular rteaders are aware, we’ve made astonishing gains from the AAPL Options Chain in the past.


NewLead Holdings Ltd. NEWL

Sometimes in the course of attempting to track to biggest potential gainers, we find that it can take several sessions for a pick to mature. Such was the case with NEWL, as we showed up slightly early to the party. The most important thing, however, was that we showed up.

We began tracking NEWL for a bottom a couple of Fridays ago, and while we were attempting to sniff out a low, the company announced a significant 1-for-50 reverse split. As the stock attempts to normalize following that major development, we are seeing a massive surge in both PPS and volume.

We will definitely be tracking NEWL more closely following this cleaning up of the share structure, as well as other developments that have been recently announced.
