STXS, INO, BRND & Extended Watchlist

Stereotaxis, Inc. STXS

This one appeared in our reports on Friday as we had seen a significant run earlier in the week. No sooner did we congratulate ourselves on riding STXS for that impressive 196% gain from 2.33-6.90, did the stock heat up once again. From the low of 4.15 following Friday’s open, the stock took us on another steady upward climb, this time stairstepping all the way up to a late afternoon high of 8.99 for a intraday gain of 117%

Anyone who happened to catch STXS from the previous low of 2.33 (Tuesday), would have been up 286% on their positions at Friday’s high.

The stock closed at 7.34, holding much of the day’s gains on roughly 25X the 3mo. average volume. With a close like that, we’re on the lookout for a possible continuation of momentum today. Key resistance will be at Friday’s 8.99 swing high.


Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. INO

On Thursday we mentioned that recent interest, INO, had seen a new high on Wednesday, marking a 242% gain from our original alert. This play doesn’t seem to be done yet, this morning gapping up past that previous high of 2.20. At this point INO is beginning to remind us of the Energizer Bunny.


Premier Brands, Inc. BRND

We reminded everyone to keep an eye on BRND in Friday’s morning report, and by the time we released an afternoon update, the stock had already run 53% intraday from .0077 up to .0121. Following that report, the stock continued to ascend, closing at a new high-of-day at .013, extending our total possible gain on the day to 69%


Options Trading Side Notes:

On Tuesday we felt we might see AAPL hit $470 by week’s end. AAPL fell a little short of our projected goal, hitting $462.85 on Friday. However the $455 Calls we were following last week still yielded significant opportunity. At the time of Friday’s afternoon update report, we had observed a run from 2.46 to 4.00. In the last three hours of trading, AAPL broke above $460 and those Calls were trading close to 8.00.

This morning AAPL is trading up to $468, and appears as if it could continue it’s upward trend. If that is indeed the case, we’re going to be shifting our attention to the $460 & $465 Calls.

VDSC, Extended Watchlist & Special Reminder

ALAS International Holdings, Inc. VDSC
Last week, despite being shortened by a holiday, turned up some solid performers for us. VDSC had quite a day on Friday following our pre-market mention of the stock. We outlined the fact that it had just recently found support off of the previous 200DMA of .004, and that the chart appeared ready to yield some gains. Indeed, from a low of .0068, we observed a subsequent high of .0098, making intraday gains of up to 44% possible.

The stock broke through a previous resistance point at .0093, which we’d like to see hold as future support, and beyond that the next key resistance sits at .017. VDSC ended up closing very near its high of day, generally a bullish sign.


Options Trading
SPY Calls were a point of focus for us on Friday. After a huge gap-up, we saw an early consolidation that led to a dip-and-rip scenario. The recovery carried the SPY to new highs, meaning that any Calls that were in the money provided traders with a really nice opportunity for some big gains. Specifically, the $161 Calls pushed as high as 2.05 into the close from a low of .66, and kept moving post-market as high as 2.19, a 230% spike.


SPECIAL REMINDER:
Don’t miss out on tomorrow morning’s report that will feature a brand-new stock that we feel has serious upside-potential coming off of its 52-week low. So be sure to scan your inboxes tomorrow morning before the opening bell and catch that report!
