Blue Horseshoe Stocks: News Play, MHRC Recap & More

Magnum Hunter Resources Corp. MHRC
In yesterday’s premarket publication, we went over several momentum plays that have been very good to us in recent sessions, and among those was MHRC. We tagged this one last Monday (11/16)just a couple of sessions after it registered a new annual low.

From there the stock has built one heck of a recovery, and after a bangup intraday performance yesterday, it managed to press to new highs yet again. The intraday move on MHRC was from a low of .037 to .074, which comes out to an even 100%, and that high represents a total increase of 252% over our observed low of .021.

As we pointed out in a previous mention of this stock, there are a couple of gaps on the chart, the filling of which would mean more big moves to the upside. They sit at .08-.15, and beyond that, from .19-.26. The filling of the first gap would spell the chance for yet another double-bagger, so we’ll be sure to leave this play on our radar.


AgriEuro Corp. EURI

Speaking of momentum movers, we want to take this opportunity to recap the performance of another stock that we tagged for observation in our report on Monday the 16th. On that day, we caught the stock at a low of .381, and it has been smooth sailing ever since. EURI has recorded higher highs and higher lows every single day, culminating in an impressive new high of 2.00 yesterday.

That incredible move works out to total possible gains of up to 425% for anyone who caught our initial alert just seven sessions ago. Cheers to those who took advantage!


First Choice Heathcare Solutions, Inc. FCHS

Catching our eye toward the end of the day yesterday was FCHS. The stock made a nice intraday move from .73 and ran into the close at .98 on heavy volume.

That action alone would generally be enough for us to place a stock on watch for a possible continuation of momentum, but the company sweetened the pot even further with a post-market reveal of some promising guidance through 2016.

FCHS figures to be a stock that we track over an extended period, so now is the time to familiarize ourselves with its characteristics. To that end, we recorded a video of the chart this morning to point out some of the technical highlights, and would suggest our readers take a few minutes to check it out:

( Please Note: In the video, Stock Sumo gives the former company name, “Medical Billing Assistance Inc.” as it is still listed this way on StockCharts.com. First Choice Healthcare Solutions, Inc. is the correct and current billing.)

Pfizer, Inc. PFE Options Idea

We’ve noticed that PFE is rebounding off of a recent relative low on the chart, and this morning the stock is gapping up considerably in defiance of a less-than-ideal PR alluding to disappointing top-line results from late-stage studies of the drug Lyrica. We’re going to monitor a quick options idea to correspond with this activity, specifically, the PFE Weekly $31-32.50 Calls.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: CDNL Recap, Potential Bottom-Play & More

Cardinal Resources, Inc. CDNL

CDNL is a stock that we’ve had on our radar since last month, and over the past several sessions it has built itself a heck of a chart, registering higher lows on each of the past six trading days.

We reminded our readers of our interest in CDNL again this week, re-mentioning it on Tuesday, and in the three-session span since that reminder went out, we’ve seen a 146% swing from .0057-.014. Based on a number of factors, we feel that there could be something left in the tank for this play, and we will continue to track its progress provided it can maintain support at or above the current 50DMA of .008 on any upcoming consolidations.

As we’ve highlighted on the following snapshot, the RSI on CDNL just breached into the power zone, while the MACD is giving off a bullish signal as well.


Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. SRPT – Options Idea

SRPT is gapping up in a big way this morning, and thus we’d like to formulate an options idea to possibly take advantage of the setup we’re seeing.

The stock has already traded as high as $34-range in the premarket, and if it can hold above the 50DMA which we’ve pointed out on the chart below and continue its ascent, we’re going to be very interested in the Weekly $32-35 Calls and their potential for big moves today.

*We always like to remind our subscribers, especially those that have just joined our ranks, of the inherently elevated risk/reward dynamic that comes with trading weekly options contracts on a Friday. As we’ve explained in the past, time-decay starts to become a big factor with expiration coming at the closing bell- premiums evaporate, volatility naturally increases, and some huge opportunities for quick-strike swing trades can present themselves. 


Bon-Ton Stores, Inc. BONT – Extended-Term Bottom-Watch

We’ve had success with BONT in the past, and recently the stock has taken an epic pounding, culminating in a cliff-diving session yesterday. Whenever we spot activity like this, we go into vulture mode, carefully observing for a bounce signal. A correctly timed bottom here could result in a prime rebound play, so we’ll keep a keen watch over BONT today, and into next week.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MDCO Options Recap & More

The Medicines Co. MDCO

We were spot on in terms of the options ideas we offered up in yesterday’s premarket report.
After taking a look at the premarket activity being driven by some untraded-upon press, we targeted the MDCO Weekly $38-41 Calls. We specified that we’d be on the lookout for a dip-and-rip scenario to give rise to chances in that range, and it turned out quite well.

Here’s a look at the possibilities for big gains that traders were afforded with those contracts: 

$38 Calls  – Daily Range: 2.30-3.50 – Max Gain: 52%
$39 Calls  – Daily Range: 1.75-2.55 – Max Gain: 46%
$40 Calls  – Daily Range: 1.05-2.40 – Max Gain: 129%
$41 Calls  – Daily Range: .80-1.75 – Max Gain: 119%


Other Notable Gainers

A couple of the stocks we’ve had on bottom-watch which we mentioned in yesterday’s report had modest yet notable sessions to kick off the week, and we’ll continue to monitor for signs of continued recovery in both instances. 

Bon-Ton Stores, Inc. BONT – We’ve been on BONT’s trail for a couple of weeks, and yesterday the stock made a slight jump from 3.60-4.07 for an intraday move of 13% and held the majority of those gains into the close.

SFE Entertainment, Inc. SFXE – SFXE also made a nice move from a low of .91 up to 1.04, a 14% jump, and it too held the majority of its ground, closing above a dollar.


VelocityShares 3X Long Crude Oil ETN (UWTI)

We’re seeing some bullish patterns on the UWTI chart that we felt were worth pointing out. As you can plainly see on the annotated snapshot below, this particular note has traded record volume en route to logging four consecutive sessions of higher highs and higherl ows off of its recently established 52-week low.

We’ll be on the lookout for the possibility of further advances provided that Crude Oil futures can see a sustained uptrend over recent lows.


Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Bottom-Play Roundup & More

Last Week’s Bottom-Bouncers

We were tracking a couple of stocks and an ETF that we put on bottom-watch heading into the end of last week, and are happy to report that we’ve seen the beginnings of some nice rebounds on those fronts.

Direxion Daily Nat Gas Bull 3X ETF (GASL)
It started with the triple-leveraged natural gas bull fund, GASL, which we caught coming off of its 52-week lows and entered into the conversation on Thursday. At the time we would witness a PPS low of 4.88, and after a nice initial run that day, GASL would go on to register a high of 6.98 on Friday. That marked a timely call on our behalf which opened the door for overnight profits of up to 43%

___

LINN Energy, LLC (LINE) & Linn Co, LLC (LNCO)

We tagged this linked pair on Friday, noting that one is a publicly-traded wholly-owned sub of the other, and that the chart patterns were virtually identical. Traders could have latched on to either, and witnessed the reversal we called for on the charts.

The move for the parent, LINE, was recorded as a run from 2.73-3.83, a 40% intraday swing. The subsidiary, LNCO, ran 34% from 2.46 to 3.29. Both very respectable single-session moves.
____

We’ll continue to monitor all three of these plays for the possibility of continued uptrends as we kick things off this week. We’ll look for each one to register higher lows, building a higher base of support than we witnessed on Friday.


Pazoo, Inc. PZOO – Update

We re-tagged PZOO on Friday, pointing out the recovery that had been transpiring on the chart, and we were granted another nice opportunity by the stock. We watched as it ran from a daily low of .0059 and went as high as .0073

In the video chart we drew up for PZOO in that report we mentioned we wanted to see a break of the 50DMA (.0061) and we’ll look for the stock to maintain support at or above that level on any pullbacks. The next area of key resistance crops up at the 200DMA of .011.

The company had a conference call last week (>>>Read Transcript or >>>Listen to Call) which went over a vast array of important topics. We suggest taking the time to go over that; highlights included financial and share structure data, as well as information regarding all branches of the company’s rapidly expanding marijuana testing business.


The Medicines Co. MDCO

Setting off our abnormal volume scanner this morning was MDCO, which looks ready to fly with un-traded upon news regarding a cholesterol study hitting the wires on Sunday. The stock is up considerably in the premarket, so we’re going to formulate a potential quick-hitting options idea for intraday/intraweek flip opportunities- We’ll be looking for the possibility of dip-and-rips in the range of MDCO Weekly $38-41 Calls.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ADAT, Options Recaps & More

Authentidate Holding Corp. ADAT

Despite turbulent overall conditions, to this point we’ve succeeded in weeding out at least one big winner each day this week, and yesterday’s was most assuredly ADAT. We tagged this stock after noticing some unusual premarket activity, and it proceeded to break out immediately following the opening bell.

We witnessed a big-time surge from a low of .15 all the way up to .55 in the first 35 minutes of the session. That’s an eyebrow-raising 267% rip! Big cheers go out to any of our readers who were able to ride that massive wave of momentum to quick intraday profits.


Bon-Ton Stores, Inc. BONT

We called BONT as a bottom-watch play in Friday’s premarket report, noticing it testing new annual lows, and described it as being generally undervalued.

Our instincts proved to be quite accurate; the stock found its ultimate low of 2.89 during the next session on Monday, and followed that up with a tremendous rebound yesterday. The stock ran back to touch a high of 4.15, representing a session-over-session swing of 44%

Moving forward, we’ll look for BONT to continue to build higher levels of support. The stock will need to maintain above yesterday’s low  to retain our immediate interest, but remember, we like to begin to monitor retail stocks like this one more heavily as schools go back in session and the holiday season rapidly approaches.


Options Ideas – Updates

We’ve got to update our subscribers on the performance of the options ideas we’ve been tracking this week for the second straight day. We zeroed in on the performance of Weekly UVXY $49 Calls and Weekly SPY $190 Puts, which we had already seen make considerable moves on Monday, and the opportunities just kept coming. Just look at the kind of gains that were offered up:

UVXY $49 Calls  – Daily Range: 5.00-19.30 – Max Gain: 286%

SPY $190 Puts – Daily Range: 1.10-4.77 – Max Gain: 334%

The markets are gapping up this morning, so we’ll be on the lookout for a possible selloff from profit-taking followed by a subsequent rebound, for the chance at added opportunities in these plays as we progress through midweek.
