Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ASTI Recap, Options Reminder & More

Trevena, Inc. TRVN

Of all of the plays that we were monitoring via our extended watchlist in yesterday’s premarket report, the most potent intraday performance came from TRVN. The stock had made a nice move in the previous session, had pulled back, and looked primed for another nice move based on the premarket activity we observed.

As the overall markets saw a trend reversal, TRVN made a solid, steady, run from a daily low of 9.21 up to 11.47; that registered as a 25% increase on more than 12X the 3-month average volume.

The stock is increasing further in the premarket today (traded as high as 11.83 thus far), so we might want to look out for the possibility of a slight dip followed by a continuation of yesterday’s momentum.

Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. ASTI

ASTI is a stock we’re very familiar with, as a quick tag search of our archives reveals, we’ve taken advantage of this stock multiple times over the years. A couple of weeks ago, we tagged the stock as a bottom-watch play after noticing it was being beaten back to new 52-week lows.

We stated that ASTI was a prime candidate for a bounceplay, and an extreme item of interest “because when a rebound does occur, it could be very significant.” and we couldn’t have been more spot-on in that assumption.

It’s ultimate low of .10 came just three sessions hence, and the impressive multi-day recovery pushed ASTI as high as .3597 yesterday. That represents an overall swing of 260%

Options Reminder:

Last Thursday just as the markets were becoming highly distressed, we formulated set of longer-term options plays to watch once a market rebound began to occur.

Yesterday, another reversal came to pass, so we just wanted to issue a brief reminder of the potential targets we listed, and are still tracking heavily: 09/18-10/02 Calls in the FB, GPRO, GMCR, AAPL, NFLX, and TSLA chains.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: OMER Review & More

Omeros Corp. OMER

We had a nice intraday mover in OMER yesterday after we caught the stock gapping up in early trading. Tagging it for observation in our premarket report was definitely a good move as the stock ran straight out of the gate from a low 22.51, and reached as high as 30.21 shortly after 11AM.

That’s an intraday increase of 34% which, for a stock in this price range, is quite impressive. If any of our readers were able to take advantage of the stock’s exceptional daily performance following our alert, we salute you!

Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA – Options Update

We reminded our subscribers yesterday of the options idea we formulated on Monday for TSLA Weekly $250-265 Calls,  highlighting some of the early gains we saw out of contracts in the low end of the range. We also reiterated our interest in tracking the action in that range consistently over the course of the week.

It was a good thing that we did, because TSLA responded in kind, surging past the $260-mark toward the end of the session. As expected, that move was accompanied by some heavy activity within our specified range. Here’s a breakdown of some of the top profit possibilities:

$260 Calls – Range: 1.60-4.20 – Max Gain: 163%
$262.50 Calls – Range: 1.09-2.94 – Max Gain: 170%
$265 Calls – Range: .69-1.97 – Max Gain: 186%

Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. ASTI – Bottom Watch

We’ve taken notice of ASTI this midweek as the stock has been on an absolute backslide for an extended period. One peek at the following snapshot reveals a heavily oversold chart. We’re going to put ASTI on bottom-watch, because when a rebound does occur, it could be very significant.

Cannabis Science, Inc CBIS

It’s been quite a long time since we checked in with CBIS. We’re making note of the stock this morning on the heels of a big PR yesterday with sent it into overdrive. We’ll be on the lookout for a possible continuation of momentum into today’s session.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: FCEL, AQXP Recaps & More

Aquanox Pharmaceuticals, Inc. AQXP

AQXP was among the stocks that we presented in yesterday’s premarket report, as we were catching it a couple of days after some really positive developments were announced by the company. Despite already being up significantly at that point, our instincts to include it in our daily interests proved to be well-founded.

The stock made a monstrous move right out of the starting gate from 17.56-55.75, a walloping 217% initial rip, followed by an extreme pullback. The activity in AQXP was so abnormally volatile that trading was temporarily halted. AQXP stock is presently gapping up in premarket trading as high as 38.74 so far this morning.

Familiar Bottom-Bouncers

Yesterday was an interesting session in that we noticed an unusually high number of stocks with which we are very familiar, making some excellent moves off of their recently-attained low-points.

FuelCell Energy, Inc. FCEL – FCEL had been on a continuous backslide for many weeks. The company released a positive PR (Link Below) and things took off from there, as you can see on the included chart. We’ll be looking for the stock to maintain at least half of the advance it made yesterday on any pullbacks.

___

Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Inc. INO

INO also had a big day generated by a PR. The company entered into a partnership with AstraZeneca to provide its cancer treatment in a deal that could reportedly bring as much as $700M in revenue INO’s way. (>>>Get More Details). We are well-acquainted with this stock, having last mentioned it just a couple of weeks ago. We’ll be keen to track the ensuing activity after yesterday’s major revelation, and roughly 30% increase on the day.

___

Other stocks that we routinely discuss that also made appreciable moves off of relative lows yesterday were Voltari Corp. VLTC, Dominovas Energy Corp. DNRG, and Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. ASTI. Those familiar bottom-bouncers were joined by New Source Energy Partners. NSLP, a newcomer to our reports. We’ll be watching the whole lot as the week progresses. Continued gains, as well as possible dip-and-rip scenarios could be in the cards for any and/or all of them!

Fresh Options Ideas

We’ve got a nice selection of new options-trading possibilities to enter into the mix today:

Shake Shack, Inc. SHAK –  Shake Shack beat on earnings  yesterday and is gapping up in the premarket today. As a result we are going to be taking a look at Weekly $72-76 Calls for potential chances at intraday/intraweek flips.

Apple, Inc. AAPL –  We’ve had a lot of success with AAPL Options in both the distant and recent past, and a new, longer-term idea to monitor in coming weeks is going to be the Sept. 18th $120-122 Calls.

Twitter, Inc. TWTR – For a prospective idea in the TWTR chain, we’ll stretch our target period out to that same Sept. 18th expiration, and track the 9/18 TWTR $30-32 Calls.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PBMD Recap, ASTI News & More

Prima BioMed, Ltd. PBMD

PBMD stood out among yesterday’s fresh news plays with a solid performance on the day. It was helped along by the announcement that the European Medicines Agency had given positive Scientific Advice with regard to the development path for its metastatic breast cancer treatment.

We observed as the stock traded in a daily range from 1.42 to 1.78, representing a respectable 25% intraday swing, and it did so on the strength of nearly 3.5X its 3-month average volume.

Looking at some of the still-bullish features PBMD chart, we’re going to stay open to the possibility of seeing further upswings in the near future:

American Green, Inc. ERBB

We highlighted ERBB on Friday as a potential bottom-watch candidate, and the stock has responded with a nice move so far this week. It was trading at a low of .0039 to start things off on Monday, and yesterday we watched as it reached a .0049 high; a two-day swing of 26%

The company just completed an important step in their current business plan which was reported in a PR yesterday (link below). It was in reference to the partnership ERBB has formed to construct a legal marijuana grow operation in Colorado, which will purportedly focus solely upon the propagation of “CBD-rich cannabis strains”. It’s a story we’ll continue to follow as more details become available.

Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. ASTI

We’re also still on alert with regard to an inclusion in Monday’s premarket report; ASTI has been making its way toward a bottom for the past few months. Yesterday we observed a low .451 toward the end of the session, and it appears that will be marked down as the the rebound point as the stock is gapping up heavily in early trading today with the help of a very positive PR.

As of this morning’s premarket high of .80 we’ve already seen a 77% swing in less than 24 hours. We’ll keep a close watch on ASTI today as this morning’s news of its 233% quarter-over-quarter revenue increase filters down and reaches more sets of eyes.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: TSLA Options Recap & More

Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA – Options

Despite another choppy day for the markets as a whole, we were able to find a diamond in the rough with our TSLA Options Idea in Thursday’s premarket report.

As the stock was gapping up, we identified the possibility of some dip-and-rip scenarios occurring in weekly TSLA $275-280 Calls and that’s precisely what we got. There was some extremely impressive action with the $275’s and $277.50’s in particular, that could’ve provided traders with exponential gains.

The $275 Calls jumped out of the starting gate and went on an initial run from 5.00 to 7.60 (+52%) in the first couple minutes of the session. The dip-and-rip we were after provided an even bigger opportunity as the contracts reached a midday low of .78 before rebounding, and absolutely exploded back to a 5.10 close. That marked a second intraday rip of 554%

The $277.50’s traded in a similar pattern; the initial move was from 3.20 to 5.40 (+69%), and their dip took them to a low of .21 before re-launching as high as 3.00 into the close. That was a mind-boggling 1329% rip.

NuGene International, Inc. NUGN

NUGN has been an ongoing point of interest for us over the past few weeks; we alerted the stock in the third week of June, and at that time, observed a 2.67 swing-low. Since then, the chart has been on a steady incline, surging as much as 47% as it hit a high of 3.88 on both Wednesday and Thursday.

We’ll be looking for the possibility of the stock cracking through that resistance to continue its uptrend into this week.

There’s a fresh PR coming off of the wire this morning as well:

IRVINE, Calif., July 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — NuGene International, Inc. (“NuGene”) (NUGN), a developer, manufacturer and marketer of advanced skin and hair care lines utilizing adipose derived human stem cells and stem cell media, conducted one-on-one meetings with top beauty editors in New York City including Allure, Vogue, Glamour, Marie Claire, Self, Shape, More, Town and Country, People, People Style Watch, Cosmopolitan, Better Homes and Gardens and W. >> View PR
