Short-Term Traders Unphased by Virus

Novint Technologies, Inc. NVNT

As we were just mentioning yesterday morning, the OTC often becomes a haven from uncertainty on the larger exchanges. As the DOW reached terminal velocity in the largest single day loss in history, NVNT, an OTC play we’ve been tracking since nearly the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak, enjoyed another solid session of gains.

Subsequent to our initial alert on NVNT last month on the 5th, the stock was trading for as little as .017 a share, and as its newly attained high of .06 yesterday, has risen by a margin of 253%


Fresh Options Ideas

We’ve also got a couple of earnings-related options ideas, as the markets appear ready to regain some of the lost ground from yesterday’s session. Dick’s posted a solid bump of same store sales in their Q4 report, while StitchFix cut guidance on annual sales and profits. We’ll also throw in an idea for the SPY in anticipation of some measure of a rebound for stocks today.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Fresh New Options Ideas

Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. BABA – Review

On Friday morning, apart from recapping the amazing options idea we proffered in last week’s reports, we formulated one final fresh idea for the week. That was the BABA Weekly $165-162.50 Puts, and the performance there did not disappoint.

We sussed out multibag options gainers all week long, and this short on BABA was a solid way to cap it all off. The $165 Puts ran from a low of .78 and reached 2.26, for an intraday gain of 190% The $162.50’s also fared quite well, running from 1.84-4.36, which represents a 137% rip.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AYTU Review & More

Aytu Bioscience Inc. AYTU

Our attention is being drawn back to AYTU this morning, a stock that we placed on watch at the end of March. From the low of 1.55 we observed on the morning of our initial report on the 27th, AYTU had been gradually stair-stepping its way up the chart, reaching a high of 2.47 just last week (+59%).

This morning in the premarket, AYTU reached a brand new high of 2.90, marking an increase of 87% over our initially observed low, and leaving us anxious to see how the activity unfolds from here.


Amplitech Group, Inc. AMPG – Update

We also want to provide another quick update on AMPG, which printed new highs yet again yesterday for the second consecutive session. The stock hit .065, which marks a 51% rise over the .043 low we witnessed at the beginning of last month, when we released our first Special Report on AMPG.

A lot has happened in that span, which you can learn more about by exploring the links in the update we provided on AMPG in yesterday’s premarket report. We would not be at all surprised to see AMPG continue to add to the gains we’ve seen thus far.


FRESH OPTIONS IDEA:

Friday was a fantastic day for the markets, and yesterday was quite poor by comparison. Today it appears as if the see-saw may continue with another bullish session, so we’re going to place the SPY 05/15 $281-282.50 Calls on watch to coincide with our current market sentiments.
