APRN Blows its Lid & More

Blue Apron Holdings Inc. APRN

We provided readers with a set of stocks that we felt were uniquely built to weather the coronavirus storm in yesterday morning’s premarket report. APRN had already begun to rise a little bit prior to that, but yesterday’s huge session really sent it for a ride.

The stock registered as the number three top gainer on the NASDAQ for its performance, which saw it trade up from a low 8.70 and hit 19.49, which represents an intraday rise of 124%. As of this morning’s premarket trading, APRN has now hit 24.50, extending our total observed range in 24 hours to 182%

With people being urged to stay home as much as possible, and perhaps with a mandatory nationwide quarantine on the way, we would expect Blue Apron’s order volume to stay at what we can only imagine are all time highs. As far as how high the stock could run, that’s anyone’s guess, but we’ll be tracking it closely to find out.

Decision Diagnostics Corp. DECN

Certain stocks on the OTC have also been enjoying solid performances in relation to the coronavirus.  The company believes that its GenViro! COVID-19 “Rapid” Kit will be in high demand after the release of new FDA guidance allowing for near immediate distribution of kits with minimal red tape.

We had placed the stock in our extended watchlist in yesterday morning’s report, and were met with a very respectable intraday move from .118-.198, which works out to a gain of 68%

Gilead Sciences, Inc. GILD – Options

We’ve been hot on the trail of GILD Calls since Wednesday, when we brought forth the idea of using the $97 and $98 Calls to take advantage of GILD recovery from a beating it had taken following a mixed-result earnings call. Both sets of contracts brought us the chance to make major gains that day, with the 97’s and 98’s making moves of 226% and 253% respectively.

We reaffirmed our interest in those same calls in yesterday’s premarket report, and for the second day in a row, we were extremely pleased with the intraday opportunities afforded to us.

The $97 Calls, after trading as low as .79, would go on to set a daily high of 2.20, a 178% rip. The $98 Calls went on a run from 1.27 to as much as 3.05, a 140% increase.

Cheers go out to anyone else who was able to take advantage of our meticulous coverage of this excellent play this mid-week. It’s just the latest in a long line of great options trading ideas we’ve had so far in 2015, so even if you’ve missed everything up to this point, you’re not too late, because we have no intention of slowing down now!

Fresh Options Ideas

Twitter, Inc. TWTR

Twitter had an earnings beat post-market yesterday, and as a result the stock is gapping up significantly this morning. Our next potential area of interest is going to be with the TWTR $45 Calls. (Last Traded @ 1.00)

LinkedIn Corp. LNKD

Another social media earnings beater was LNKD, and in this case we’re going to be looking at Calls in the $260-263 range.  ($260’s last trade: 2.32 –  $262.50’s last trade: 2.00)

Rich Pharmaceuticals, Inc. RCHA

In addition to yesterday’s successful options plays was a stock we also mentioned in our morning report that went on to behave exactly as we predicted.

After making a huge run that topped 1700% the day prior, we mentioned our expectation that RCHA would pull back off of its extreme highs and offer us a subsequent bounceplay, and indeed it did.

The stock came down as low as .0091 before recovering to a daily high of .019. That was good for gains of up to 109% on the rebound.

Gilead Sciences, Inc. GILD – Options

Our interest in the GILD $97 and $98 Calls which we featured in yesterday’s morning report paid off big-time for us. With GILD breaking the $100-mark, those contracts provided us with ample opportunity to profit.

The $97 Calls went on a major run from a low of 1.15-3.75, an intraday spike of 226%, while the $98’s made a mammoth move from .75-2.65, registering as an impressive 253% romp. Daily charts for both sets of contracts appear on the snapshot below:

GILD will keep our attention as we head into week’s end, we’ll continue to monitor these $97-98 Weeklies, and should it appear that the stock wants to surge higher we may consider rolling up our strike price to the $99-100 Calls.


Rich Pharmaceuticals, Inc. RCHA

For the second day in a row yesterday, the importance of checking our blog daily stood out with another stock off of our Stock Tracker making huge gains. RCHA went on a historical run from super-subpenny (.0009) to .0163, an intraday gain of more than 1700%

We were also talking about RCHA in both our Premium and Free Skype chatrooms*, where members could have gotten in as low as .0019. Plenty of time to attain gains on the order of several hundred percent, as you can see from the following snap of the daily chart on this beast of a play, and the message from the chatroom at 9:53am.


Today, we would expect to see a gap-up followed by a significant dip as profit-takers exit their positions. From there, if properly timed, we could be looking at a big bounceplay, so we’ll want to keep RCHA on watch for at least the remainder of the week.
