Blue Horseshoe Stocks: APRE News, Options Ideas & More

Aperture Health, Inc. APRE

We’re circling back to APRE once again this morning, after the stock has logged two nice intraday performances subsequent to our in-depth report on Monday. That morning we saw a nice 59% pop, and yesterday the stock not only managed to maintain support at the previous day’s swing low as we hoped it would, but also made a 23% intraday upswing(.031-.038), not to mention closing at its high of day. That works out to cumulative gains over that two-session span totaling 82%

This morning’s area of focus is going to be the fresh PR that just hit the APRE newswire, regarding wholly-owned sub CSS Alliance, and the striking of a new distribution deal. (Link Below)

We’ll be on the lookout for added attention brought from the PR to potentially give the stock another boost. As we’ve stated previously, due to the low-float, low-volume nature of APRE, the stock is subject to significant swings on relatively little buying pressure.

NEW YORK, April 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ – Aperture Health, Inc. (OTC Markets.com: APRE), is pleased to announce that the company’s wholly owned subsidiary CSS Alliance has formed a worldwide exclusive distribution agreement with House Tech. Co. Ltd to become a hub in the United States to distribute, market and sell new technologies ranging from green solar powered A/C units, and powerless generators, as well as solar energy.  >>View Full PR

ProShares Short VIX Short-Term Futures SVXY

We’ve yet to signal any options ideas this week, which is uncharacteristic for us, so we’re also going to be zeroing in on a possible play in that arena. The markets have been strong of late, with the VIX continuously trending downward, so we’re looking at an inverse analog of that note in SVXY.

Our specific area of interest is going to be the SVXY Weekly $53.50-55 Calls.


Bank of America Corp. BAC

Speaking of possible options plays, we’re also taking note of BAC 07/15 $15 Calls which have been shown to have abnormally high open interest over the past couple sessions. Whenever we see serious cash of this magnitude flow into a set of contracts, it raises our attention. As the saying goes, you’ve got to follow the money! Therefore, we’ll be keeping this set of contracts on a long-term watchlist.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: BAC, SEAS Recaps & More

Options Recap

 We continued our run of success with options plays on Friday– three of the four ideas we offered ended up turning in notable intraday performances. 


Bank of America Corp. BAC

Our BAC selection was new on Friday morning. After we noticed a PR alluding to an increase of the company’s massive share buyback program, we highlighted one set of options contracts in particular, the BAC Weekly $13.50 Calls.

We witnessed those trade in an intraday range from .16-.37, which represented a move of 131% ultimately proving to be our biggest runner of the day.

__________

United Parcel Service, Inc. UPS

Our designation of UPS April 8th $104 Calls was one of a pair of ideas that we formulated on Thursday which would carry their success into Friday’s session as well.

Those contracts rose from a daily low of 1.50 and ended up hitting 2.03 for an intraday move of 35%, and a two-session swing of 332% over our observed low of .47 on Thursday.
__________

SeaWorld Entertainment, Inc. SEAS

The other play from Thursday morning that we highlighted was the SEAS April 15th $18 Calls, and those too traded in similar fashion, putting up a nice intraday gain which also measured as a big increase from the prior session.

On Friday those contracts ran from 1.20-1.95, which marks a 63% intraday pop, and a total jump of  388% over Thursday’s low of .40.

__________

Our sincerest congratulations to all of our readers both old and new who have been following along with our regular options ideas. A vast majority of our picks in this arena in 2016 have been absolutely stellar, despite highly irregular and uncertain economic conditions.  As always, we’re going to be doing our best to continue this pattern of success indefinitely.


LegacyXChange, Inc. LEGX

On the stock side of things, we had LEGX in our watchlist on Friday, and it managed a respectable intraday move. From an early low of .0243 the stock achieved an afternoon high of .0379; that was good for intraday gains of up to 55%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Roundup & More

Options Roundup

We produced three sets of options ideas in yesterday morning’s premarket report, and considering our recent track record with options plays, it should come as no surprise that we hit on some big gainers with all of them.

Petroleo Brasiliero SA (Petrobras) PBR

We’ve successfully come up with winning options ideas for PBR on so many occasions, we’ve lost count at this point. Our targeted contracts yesterday were the Weekly $5 and $5.50 Calls, and both sets recorded solid moves on the day.

For the $5’s we saw a nice run from .42-.77, an intraday swing of 83%, while the $5.50 Calls doubled that performance with a 166% pop from .12-.32. 

We mentioned that the idea could serve for swing trades into today, and it appears as if PBR’s gap up will extend the gains we’ve seen thus far, especially considering that oil is presently at its highest price in months. In addition to staying on top of those 5.50’s, we’ll explore the possibility of rolling up our strike price to the 6.00-level. We’ll just need to see the stock hold support at its previous resistance point of 5.72 on any early pullbacks.

__________

United Parcel Service, Inc. UPS

The next idea we came up with was to take a look at UPS April 8th $104 Calls, which we found attractive for a number of reasons that we listed in our report, and those contracts put up a top-notch performance as well.

They started out from a low of .47 and would end up hitting a daily high of 1.50; gains of up to 219% were there for the taking.

__________

SeaWorld Entertainment, Inc. SEAS

We were very interested in Seaworld’s PR concerning the halting of the Killer Whale breeding programs and theater show phase-out yesterday(>>View PR). The announcement was received well by the investing community, as well as the company seeing goodwill on social media for doing the right thing- at one point on Twitter, #Seaworld was trending in the Top 3 for the US in the wake of the news.

We set our sights on SEAS April 15th $18 Calls, and were met with an excellent intraday gain opportunity as they ran 150% from .40-1.00.


Sparta Commercial Services, Inc. SRCO

We also want to give ourselves a pat on the back for SRCO, which we included in yesterday’s extended watchlist. The stock made a respectable intraday move for us, to the tune of 60% as it traded in a range from .003-.0048 on roughly six times the 3-month average volume.


Bank of America Corp. BAC – Fresh Options Idea

BAC is currently gapping up in the premarket on news that the company will be increasing the scope of their share buyback program, and we’re going to signal a set of options contracts for observation to correspond with that. We’re going to be taking a look at BAC Weekly $13.50 Calls for a possible daytrade*.

*Don’t forget, trading weekly options contracts on a Friday is a very risky proposition, and is recommended for seasoned traders only.

ANTS, HLNT, BVSN & Extended Watchlist

ANTs software inc. ANTS

We are reintroducing ANTS, a stock that has brought up some nice gains in the past, broke out yesterday on some big volume. It closed near the HOD of .0175 for a 150%

Based off of the momentum that we saw yesterday, we are looking for some continuation into today, with resistance showing at .02 and .0328.

It is probable that the surge in volume was instigated by a PR released yesterday:

MASON, Ohio, Sept. 18, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — ANTs is pleased to announce that ANTs has received a $7mm contract from a private firm for architectural and programming support for a FORTUNE 500 Company. ANTs is a sub-contractor to the prime contractor. The project start date is November 2012.

Additionally ANTs is in negotiations with IBM, Italy and SAP, China regarding their existing client projects involving the AAA (ACS Advanced architecture) as well as long term projects and licensing of other ANTs non-exclusive IP products. Service and support contracts are contemplated.

____

Highline Technical Innovations. Inc. HLNT

Much like ANTS, HLNT is also well-known to us here. Having first appeared June 29th, when it traded as low as .0046. Yesterday the stock broke key resistance at the two-cent mark, reaching new 52-wk highs. At the close of .022, that marks a gian of 378% from the low following our initial alert. All of the chart indicators are suggesting that the run could continue.

The RSI and the Slow STO are in the powerzone, and the PPO is getting ready for a crossover. The last few pullbacks made by HLNT, the 20 and 50DMA’s have held as support. We’d like to see that continue moving forward, with .014 and .018 holding as main support.

____

BroadVision, Inc. BVSN

We are adding BVSN to our radars as a bottom bounce play. This is a stock that has experienced a huge run in the past, running from the upper 7.00-range all the way up to more than 56.00, gaining over 620% between December ’11 and March ’12.

This morning it appears as though it may gap up over 5%, and based on what we’ve seen from BVSN’s history and how it looks like it wants to react this morning, we want to keep this one on our watchlist moving forward.

PEIX, BIOF, DARA, CGUD & Extended Watchlist

Pacific Ethanol, Inc. PEIX &

BioFuel Energy Corp. BIOF

Back in February, we caught these two ethanol stocks and rode them for some pretty nice gains. On Friday, both stocks appeared in our extended watchlist, and both stocks had another runaway performance.

BIOF opened at 7.55, and hit a high of 9.89 before closing at 8.98.Intraday gains of 19-30% were possible there.

PEIX had a day’s range of .4513-.52, marking possible gains up to 15%

With the way these two traded on Friday, we definitely want to keep them on our radar this week.

____

DARA Biosciences, Inc. DARA

DARA is another play from Friday’s Extended Watchlist that really fared well. A possible gain of 16% came when the stock closed at its high of day at 1.09, after dipping as low as .941. Also noteworthy was the huge amount of volume, 7.45M shares traded, to the tune of nearly 30x its 3mo average.

____

Com-Guard.com, Inc. CGUD

CGUD did not get off to the start we were anticipating on Friday. We added it to our watchlist as a result of the huge volume we saw roll in on Thursday, to no avail. We didn’t see a continuation of that volume, as the stock trended down for the day, seeing a low at .0031 before closing out at .0039.

We are still watching however, to see if the news out late Friday has any positive effect moving forward:

ENCINITAS, CA, Sep 14, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) — Com-Guard.com, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: CGUD), the technology company that has been designing and developing security applications for over ten years, has announced that it will be focusing on applications for the Apple(R) iPhone 5.

____

Added Note: Our mention of the AAPL $680 calls paid dividends on Friday. They traded as low as 8.00, and surged to close at 15.35.
