Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PZOO News, Options & More

Voltari Corp. VLTC

Leading into this week, VLTC had been under consolidation following its epic run to new 52-week highs earlier in April. On Wednesday, the stock ultimately found support at 8.14 and by the time it had reached its daily high yesterday the stock had rebounded back to 11.65, a 43% swing.

VLTC did maintain the majority of its daily gains into the close yesterday. and this morning the stock is gapping up quite substantially with a premarket high of 12.34 already having printed.

There appears to be a key area of resistance around $14, and we’ll want to see VLTC hold support at or above its recent swing low of 8.14 on any pullbacks, in order to keep our interest.

Fresh Options Ideas:

We’ve got a few candidates for potential options trades as we close out the week. Please note that we’re referring to Weekly Calls which are on the cusp of expiration, so these would be for quick-trigger daytrades only. For swing trades into next week, one could look at 05/08 or 05/15 contracts.

The stock consolidated for the first time in nearly a month this week, coming down off its recent high of .0204. Yesterday it held a penny as support and, we’ll want to see the stock maintain above that level as the week draws to a close.

Recapping Friday’s Options Ideas

Nike, Inc. NKE – On Friday morning, NKE was in the midst of gapping up on the heels of its earnings call, and we came up with daytrading ideas for the $100-104 Weekly Calls. There turned out to be great opportunity in that range as NKE surged to a daily high of 103.79:

$102 Calls – Range: .18-1.75 – Max Gain: 872%
$103 Calls – Range: .10-.85 – Max Gain: 750%

____

Prothena Corp plc PRTA was the other options target we were monitoring on Friday for swing trades. Specifically, we were looking at the $40 and $45 Calls, and both sets of contracts made big initial moves, followed by pullbacks and additional swings later in the session.

The $35 Calls first shot out of the gate trading at a low of 5.32 and running as high as 9.50 for an initial pop of 78%, before tapering back to 2.40 then recovering to 3.92, for an added 63% move.

The $40’s would open with a 116% spike from 3.00-6.50, followed by a later swing from 2.45-2.90, an extra 18% swing.

Cyber-Security Watchlist

We want to re-radar a couple of cyber security firms that we’ve mentioned in the past, as they have both been on a bit of a downtrend, yet appear to be gapping up this morning.

CyberArk Software Ltd. CYBR & FireEye, Inc. FEYE are going to go back on our active watchlist as we kick off a new trading week. Once we’re able to confirm reversals for each of these plays, we can then begin to formulate options strategies accordingly. Stay tuned to our reports this week, and we’ll be sure to have some ideas to pass along.

Last Week’s Options Ideas

Heading into the end of last week we had already been on fire with our options calls in prior sessions, and the exciting trend of huge gain opportunities continued on Friday as well. We floated a couple of last minute daytrading ideas in the web security sector with the following plays, and were handsomely rewarded for our efforts:

CyberArk Software, Ltd. CYBR – With CYBR, we were especially interested in the $50 and $55 Calls. The trading range on the $50’s was from 3.30-5.90. and that registered as an intraday gain of 72% The $55’s saw an even larger move from a low of .85 on up to 2.25, for chances at gains in excess of 165%

FireEye, Inc. FEYE – For FEYE, we targeted the $39.50, $40, and $40.50 Calls, and once again saw our ideas go green across the board. The $39.50 Calls made a move from 1.28-2.96, increasing 131% intraday. The $40’s made a big leap as well, logging a 220% move up from .75-2.40. Finally, traders in the $40.50 Calls had the opportunity for a double-bagger also, with those contracts rising from a low of .59, and reaching their peak at 1.82, a 208% gain.

Gevo, Inc. GEVO & Lucas Energy, Inc. LEI

These two stocks were two standouts from Friday’s extended watchlist. Both plays offered notable intraday moves, and each of them is gapping up even further this morning.

GEVO traded in a range from .201-.24 for an intraday gain of 19%, and this morning’s premarket high of .28 updates that increase to 39%

LEI performed quite well on Friday also, recording an intraday move from .26 to .362 (+39%). Rising as high as .399 in premarket trading today reflects a total gain of 53% that we’ve seen from Friday’s low.

Earnings Beats to Watch

As most of you are aware we’ve had tremendous good fortune this earnings season using exceeded expectations as leverage in some incredible options trades. We’ve got another pair of potential targets this morning which just beat Wall St. estimates:

VASCO Data Security International, Inc. VDSI – Another play in the presently-popular data security industry, our interest in VDSI is currently in the 03/20 $25 Calls (Closed at 5.06 on Friday) We suspect that they will open significantly higher given VDSI’s gapping up in today’s premarket trading.

Medtronic plc MDT – Concerning MDT, we’re going to keep an eye on the 03/20 $77.50 and $80 Calls. That gives us just under a month before expiration, qualifying both of these options ideas as longer-term items.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PCLN, EXPE Recaps & More

Yesterday’s Options Ideas

–

The Priceline Group, Inc. PCLN– The buyout of Orbitz by Expedia yesterday seemed to cause a ripple effect throughout the travel-booking sector yesterday, with many similar stocks making strong performances on the day.

The contracts that we proclaimed our interest in for PCLN were the the $1065-$1085 Calls, and with PCLN rising as high as 1102.26, substantial profits were there for the taking.

The $1065 Calls made an excellent 140% move from a low of 15.04 all the way to 36.20, while the $1085’s shot from 4.50 to 17.15 in a huge intraday increase of 281%

Expedia, Inc. EXPE – As far as EXPE itself, our premarket idea of the $86 Weeklies yielded an excellent opportunity as they moved up from 1.50 to 5.77, a 285% spike.

Those traders who chose to strike a bit closer to the money could have scored big with the $88 Calls as well, which traded in a range from .45-2.95 (+555%)

More New Ideas

We’ve done so well with options calls these past few weeks that there’s no point in stopping now! We’ve got a couple of new ideas to radar this morning in the web security business.

Both stocks are gapping up today, so we will be on the lookout for dip-and-rip scenarios to facilitate potential trades in the following:

CyberArk Software, Ltd. CYBR – With CYBR, we’re going to start off looking at the $50 Calls, which closed yesterday at 1.70, and the $55 Calls which closed at .60.

FireEye, Inc. FEYE – For FEYE, we’ll want to monitor the $39.50, $40, and $40.50 Calls (Closed at .55, .35, and .15 respectively.)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Update on AAPL & Extended Watchlist

Apple, Inc. AAPL – Options

On Friday, our morning report contained a blurb in which we stated we’d be “hot on the trail of potential gains in the Apple options chain”, and we certainly hope folks got in on some of the action that ensued. We have been following AAPL quite heavily since our report on Wed. the 14th, wherein we commented on the Apple-Beats buyout rumor.

AAPL stock tore out of the gate, bulling its way up all day to more than $614 just prior to the close. As a result, the options contracts we were following in the $605-610 range steadily ramped up in price over the course of the session.

As you can see on the graphic below, some truly notable gains were possible for anyone trading these contracts. The daily ranges on these things were quite impressive:

$605 Calls – Day’s Range: 2.15-9.76 – Max Gain: 354%

$607 Calls – Day’s Range: .83-7.13 – Max Gain: 759%

$610 Calls – Day’s Range: .25-4.70 – Max Gain: 1780%

It really wouldn’t have mattered which Calls you were into on Friday- traders literally could have thrown a dart at a board filled with contracts and come up with a winner!

AAPL continued to press upward this morning, as the stock has traded as high as the 618.90’s in pre-market activities. Now that it has broken well above the previous resistance point of $607.33, that’s the level we’d like to see hold as support in the event of any pullbacks.

Other stocks that had significant gains in the options calls from last week that we want to continue to monitor this week include: DDD, TSLA, GOGO, DDD & FEYE

Side Note:

Triton Distribution Systems, Inc. TTDZ now trading as:
Green Cures & Botanical Distribution Inc. GRCU

TTDZ, a stock that has given us many chances to profit in 2014, finally underwent the name and symbol change that we had been anticipating, becoming GRCU.

If you recall, this play was one of the largest runners we encountered during the “green rush” earlier this year. We caught it at a low of .0012 on January 30th, and subsequently rode it to a high of .049 in early April. For anyone without a calculator handy, that equates to a staggering move of 3983% in just over two months time! It’s hard not to call that one of our biggest successes of the year so far.

The company has also gone live with a new website that you can find @ http://gcbdinc.com/

We’re going to begin monitoring this, and other marijuana related plays more heavily in coming weeks. As many of you will remember, we’re anxiously awaiting the start of legal sales in Washington State, presently slated for mid-July. It could very well provide the cannabis sector with another swell of interest and buying, much like the beginning of sales in Colorado did back in January, which of course sparked one of the most monumental sector surges the penny markets have ever seen.
