Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Post-Earnings Options Plays

Energizer Holdings, Inc. ENR 

We’ve been seeking out prime bottom play opportunities this week, and to continue that trend, we’ve run across Energizer this morning on the heels of the stock registering a new annual low yesterday.

In conjunction with the fact that Deutsche Bank just upgraded ENR from a Hold to a Buy rating with a price target of $52/share (trading in the $37-range yesterday), along with indicators that the stock is heavily oversold, and we are confident in calling this one a prime bottom play candidate as well.

Fresh Options Plays 

We also have a pair of fresh earnings-related options ideas to pass along this morning. Post-earnings plays are typically our miost successful, and we’ve got a couple of good hunches about the following contracts as we cruise through this midweek. 

FedEx Corp. FDX –  Already in a good spot on the chart for a possible rebound leading into today’s session with a strong double-bottom setup, we’re looking to FDX options as FedEx’s Q4 results yielded a profits and earnings beat. As a result, we’re going to be tracking the FDX Weekly $157.50-60 Calls.

Micron Technology, Inc. MU – We are also looking at MU, which reported in the post-market yesterday as well, posting a beat on Q3 earnings, and bolstered guidance for sales of computer memory chips. Like the above mentioned play, MU is giving off a heavy multi-bottom signal. In this case we are interested in monitoring the MU Weekly $35-36.50 Calls.

Options Updates

The Michaels Companies, Inc. MIK – One of our fresh ideas for yesterday morning’s premarket report was a post-earnings target of the MIK 04/18 $12.50 Calls combined with a solid technical setup as a bottom-bounce play.

The stock turned in a very solid performance on the day, coming up just shy of its 50DMA, and that produced a significant gain opportunity for the contract set we designated. The $12.50 Calls traded up of a low of .60, and hit 1.35, marking an intraday run of 125% We’ll want to continue to reserve a spot on our radar for this play, and watch for the stock to continue to establish higher lows and higher highs off of its recent 52-week lows.

StoneCo Inc STNE – We also had the STNE 04/18 $37.50 & $39 Calls highlighted in yesterday’s report, and while we didn’t see quite the same intensity of activity as the above-mentioned play, that pair of contracts did get off to a good start, with nearly a full month remaining until expiration.

The $37.50’s traded in a range from 4.60-6.20 for a 35% move, and the $39’s went from 4.20-5.00 (+19%). We’ll continue tracking these as well.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Winning Options & More

Peer to Peer Network PTOP
.
Yesterday morning, we were just recapping the unreal performance of PTOP subsequent to our initial mention of the stock on November 8th after which time we would observe the stock trading for as little as .0004. It went on to break the 5000% gain mark, but we said we’d stick with it, and once again the stock delivered a solid performance and new highs during yesterday’s session.

PTOP traded in a range from .0152 to .0285, which works out to an intraday move of 88% and a ridiculously big run of 7025% in a span of roughly six weeks!


Options Review

We submitted a couple of fresh options ideas yesterday morning, having seen solid earnings from each of the following companies, and of the six total contracts we highlighted, every last one provided traders with the chance for significant single session profits.

FedEx Corp. FDX – Weekly $245-250 Calls.
$14.50 Calls – Range: 2.92-6.50 – Max Gain: 123%
$15 Calls – Range: 1.33-4.11 – Max Gain: 209%
$15.50 Calls – Range: .59-2.26 – Max Gain: 283%

In the case of FDX, it appears that we could see an extension of these gains before the week is out.

Blackberry Ltd. BB – Weekly $10.50-11.50 Calls
$14.50 Calls – Range: 1.11-1.85 – Max Gain: 67%
$15 Calls – Range: .61-1.40 – Max Gain: 130%
$15.50 Calls – Range: .30-.90 – Max Gain: 200%

Net Element, Inc. NETE

We tagged NETE for observation yesterday, and it too had a solid session. From a low  of 15.18 \the stock traded as high as  24.98, for an intraday move of 65% which came on volume of more than forty-eight times the monthly average.

For a stock in the fifteen dollar range, that is an incredible one day performance, and will leave us interested to track its movements further, going forward. Already in the premarket the stock has pushed as high as 33.44, extending our observed range to 120%
