Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Bottom-Bounce Watchlist & More

Family Room Entertainment Corp. FMYR

FMYR made an appearance in Friday morning’s premarket watchlist, and was ready to make it’s rip right from the starting gun. The stock rapidly spiked 56% from .005-.0078, before dipping back to a low of .0045 and making a 33% swing back to the close at .006.

When it was all said and done, the stock ended up trading roughly ten times its monthly average volume. These are the type of volatile swingers that we like to track whenever we find them. When properly timed, these rapid intraday swings can be leveraged into quick profits. We’ll be on the lookout in the event of some momentum carryover from Friday.


Bottom-Bounce Watchlist

We’ve got a couple of plays with similar chart setups to tag for extended-term observation as we kick off this new trading week. Each of the following has exhibited signs of rebound action off of fairly recent annual lows, and in each case, a sizable gap on their respective charts is present. We’ve included snapshots of each chart below.

Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corp. ADMP– As you can see, ADMP gapped down hard in June, and followed that up with a selloff to new annual lows later that month. Recently it has been gaining ground off of its bottom, and at present the RSI is on the verge of cracking into the power zone.

Performance Sports Group Ltd. PSG – The gap on the chart in this case dates back to March, and it will need to break through a channel of resistance that we’ve marked below to make a run at filling it, but if that were to occur, we’d be talking about gains of several hundred percent from current PPS levels.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Update & More

Options Update

Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. HTZ –  Yesterday, we signaled our interest in HTZ Weekly $11 & $11.50 Calls and began to see instant returns. The $11 Calls traded in a intraday range from .27-.46, allowing for single-session gains of up to 70%

There wasn’t much volume to speak of for the $11.50’s just yet, but we expect that to change this morning as HTZ is once again making a strong move, gapping up in premarket trading this morning. Not only should we see activity pick up with those contracts, but the gains we’ve observed in the $11’s thus far are almost certain to be extended should this uptrend continue to carry into today’s session.

_____

Lulu Lemon Athletica, Inc. LULU – Our eye is drawn to LULU this morning in the wake of its earnings release. Despite mixed results, the stock is gapping up here in the premarket. In order to take advantage of a potential rip out of the gate, we’re going to set our sights upon LULU Weekly $67-70 Calls.


Gevo, Inc. GEVO

GEVO is a familiar play that we’ve mentioned in the past, although we can’t provide specific reference at the moment with archives being hosted on our server currently under malicious attack.  We want to call attention to it once again this morning.

The stock began ramping up on Monday, at which time is was trading in the mid-.30’s, only to go on a massive intraweek run that took it to a new high of .685 yesterday, and an impressive 1.95 high in this morning’s premarket. It has tapered back a bit, so we’ll be anxious to track for the possibility of a bounce followed by another spike once regular trading commences.

We’ll need to see the stock maintain support above a dollar on any pullbacks in order for it to keep our interest.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: CPXX Buyout & More

Celator Pharmaceuticals, Inc. CPXX

Just under a couple of weeks ago, we chose to alert CPXX in our morning report from May 19th. The stock had been gaining significant ground in sessions prior to that, to the point we felt it warranted our attention.

It was a good thing we drew attention to it when we did, because what followed was a solid run-up from our observed low of 15.73 into the $18-range. This morning, our witnessed gains received yet another big boost, as a takeover has been announced that will see CPXX acquired by Jazz Pharmaceuticals for $1.5B, or, 30.25 a share.

As of this morning’s premarket high on CPXX, our observed PPS increase on the stock in a matter of just seven trading sessions has been extended to a very solid 95%


Lending Club Corp. LC

Speaking of extended gains from plays that we’ve been discussing recently, we also had LC put up a noteworthy performance on Friday that culminated in new highs for us since we began tracking the stock.

Just to refresh our readers’ memories, we called LC as a bottom-bounce candidate last Monday, at which time we observed a low of 4.19. Friday’s run carried it to a high of 5.10, marking an intraweek move of 22%

We’re going to want to continue to monitor its progress as the chart is still looking quite ripe for a continued uptrend. As you can see on the provided chart snapshot, we’ve got a steadily-strengthening RSI combined with a recent bullish MACD cross in addition to a significant gap on the chart that runs from the 5.50’s to the 6.70’s.


Cliffs Natural Resources, Inc. CLF

We’re also going to place a tag on CLF this morning. We like the recent activity and the look of the current chart. Like the aforementioned play, we’re faced with a number of bullish indicators that are urging us to keep CLF on our radars as we kick off a new trading week.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Fresh Options Ideas & More

Horizon Pharma plc  HZNP

Good morning traders! We’re back to kick off another trading week, and we’re going to start off by taking a look at an early mover in HZNP. The stock is gapping up moderately on the tail of a mixed-result earnings release, as a well as the announcement of a 5M share repurchase program.

We’re interested in signaling a pair of options contracts in the HZNP chain for observation, should the bullish sentiment we’re seeing here in the premarket boil over into the session.

Our targets are going to start out as the HZNP Weekly $14 and 15 Calls. Key resistance is currently sitting at the 50DMA of 16.15. In the event that HZNP were to test and breach that boundary, we’d look to roll up our strike price to the $16’s.


Yelp, Inc. YELP

YELP was included in our watchlist on Friday, and the stock produced a bullish performance on the day. We observed a 13% rise on the day from a low of 23.66 to a high of 26.75. That’s a respectable single-session move out of a stock in this price range.

Moving forward, we’ll be watching closely for YELP to maintain support above its current 200DMA of 23.55. That will act as our deciding point on the chart. Should the stock hold above that level on any pullbacks, we’ll look for possible swing-trade opportunities in YELP Weekly $24-27 Calls. Failure to hold that price point would signal us to flip to the bullish side and the $27-24 Puts.


Square, Inc. SQ

We also want to put SQ on a bottom-watch this morning after a post-market earnings call on Thursday precipitated quite a bit of fallout during Friday’s session. Despite a boosted outlook for the remainder of 2016 and big-time growth compared to the same quarter last year, SQ was absolutely hammered.

That makes it fair game for a potential rebound in coming sessions, so we’ll have it on our radar for that possibility. If it appears that a recovery is imminent, we’ll look to use in-the-money calls to leverage some nice gains out of this play.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: BP Options Review & More

BP plc (BP) – Options Review

Our fresh options idea from yesterday morning’s premarket report was was to track the BP Weekly $32-33.50 Calls for possible daytrade opportunities and we got just what we were looking for.

The strength of the company Q1 earnings report kicked the PPS up high enough to produce some solid moves out of each play in our highlighted range of contracts:

$32 Calls – Trading Range: 1.20-1.56 – Max Gain: 30%
$32.50 Calls – Trading Range:  .79-1.10 – Max Gain: 39%
$33 Calls– Trading Range:  .49-.73  – Max Gain: 49%
$33.50 Calls – Trading Range: .20-.39 – Max Gain: 95%

BP closed at its highs and traded even higher in the post-market, and we’re seeing a gap-up in the premarket this morning as well. We’ll look for a continuation of momentum into today’s session, wherein those options could be in line for further gains. In addition to watching those contracts, we may look to roll our strike price up in the event BP can surge past the $34-mark.


Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. SRPT – Fresh Idea

SRPT caught our eye this morning as were searching for bottom-bounce candidates, as the stock fits the bill to a tee. After being beaten back to new 52-week lows this week, the stock posted a strong recovery session yesterday that has us thinking about potential options plays.

We’re going to monitor SRPT to see if it can test yesterday’s swing high of 11.50. We’re going to be tracking the activity in the SRPT Weekly $10.50 and $11 Calls.

Bonus Bottom-Watchlist:

That same search yielded a couple of other stocks trading at or near their own 52-week lows. We always like a good bounce-play and these are the types of stocks that most often produce them.

Active Power, Inc. ACPW took a pounding into heavily oversold territory yesterday after a sizable gap-down, so we’ll be watching that over the next few sessions for a possible snap-back.

First Acceptance,Inc FAC rebounded a little after setting a new annual low yesterday as well, so we’ll look for possible signs of a continued recovery there.
