Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Great Way to Start the Week

Yesterday’s Winners

We’re happy to report that two of the mentions from yesterday’s premarket newsletter yielded prime-time opportunities for our members.

Alpha Pro Tech Ltd. APT

APT made a nice move for the second straight session; we called this one on Friday, and saw a low of 5.72 at that time. Toward the end of the day, as it did on Friday, the stock began to ramp up and set a new high for us, touching 10.47. That marks a two-day overall gain of 83% so cheer to whomever has been following along with us on this one.

Nanosphere, Inc. NSPH

NSPH was our other wildly-successful pick from yesterday, and like the aforementioned play, it too saw the bulk of its daily gain come in the latter portion of the session. The stock rose from a morning low of .70, and pushed its way to a high of 1.27 in the late afternoon.

That was good for an intraday gain of up to 81%, so cheers go out to all those who took advantage!

Options Trading – PBR

We want to touch base with our most recent options trading idea, the PBR November $16 Calls. With PBR showing some movement to the upside yesterday we did observe some positive momentum in those contracts.

We originally caught them at a low of 2.26 and they were able to reach a high of 2.63 yesterday, a 16% increase. Albeit a modest move, there is still plenty of time before expiration, so we won’t let these slip off of radar just yet.

Versar, Inc. VSR

We want to quickly put VSR on our radars today. Last week the company announced a couple of lucrative contracts, and the stock made some pretty heavy swings during yesterday’s session. It had gapped up big in the morning, and came all the way back to the 2.70’s in the afternoon before catapulting back to the 3.60 just prior to the close of the session.

We’ll be interested to monitor a play with this kind of volatility as we head into mid-week. A sharp eye could help us to catch any further opportunities that might present themselves.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AVOP, PBR, FRMC, UTRM

AV1 Group, Inc. AVOP
–
First thing’s first; we want to congratulate anyone that caught AVOP off of yesterday’s Extended Watchlist. Marijuana-related news strikes again! The stock traded as low as .0006 early in the morning, and would go on to push as high as .0015 just prior to the close.

–

That was good for an intraday run of 150% from this play on the heels of a press release stating that the company had been the subject of a friendly takeover by the Marijuana Incubator Group, which specializes in cultivation technology. We’ll definitely be following along with this story moving forward.

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR

Yesterday we saw PBR make its first big consolidation since we began tracking its recovery off of all-time lows, but not before gapping up to a new high. It provides a good lesson as to why it’s always a good idea to sell into a gap-up and lock in those profits on strength.

Despite the dip, yesterday’s low of 13.70 is still significantly higher than its 11.25 price when we first came across the play on 03/21. We’d like to see support hold at or above that 13.70-mark, or risk seeing a more substantial pullback. Below that, the next level of support is the 200DMA at 13.47.

Overall, PBR and its options chain has exceeded our expectations at every turn, and provided it holds the level of support we just mentioned, we still like the May $12, and April $14 Calls for longer-term chances, and the $13.50 and $14 Weekly Calls for possible short-term opportunities.

Formcap Corp. FRMC

One of the potential bottom-plays we put forth in yesterday’s morning report went on to have quite a session. FRMC traded in a range from .031-.0489, representing a positive intraday move of 58%

It also marked the third consecutive session of the stock making both higher lows and higher highs, further confirming the uptrend off of its recent bottom.

United Treatment Centers, Inc. UTRM

We also want to point out one of our recent interests with fresh news hitting the wires this morning. We’ve been expecting an update from UTRM and it’s finally arrived:

LOS ANGELES, CA–(Marketwired – Apr 9, 2014) – United Treatment Centers Inc. (OTC Pink: UTRM) (PINKSHEETS: UTRM) DBA www.PotNetwork.tv: “We have closed our first round of financing and will launch full scale website/video operations on 4/20/2014.

Speaking of marijuana-related plays, we will be re-alerting one of our old favorites tomorrow, be sure not to miss out on Thursday’s report hitting your inboxes between 9-9:30AM! This stock is primed with the potential for a serious move, so stay tuned!

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PBR Updates & More

Petroleo Brasiliero SA (Petrobras) PBR – Options

–

We were pleased with the potential for quick intraday gains provided by the PBR options chain on Friday. Our thoughts on moving up our strike price turned out to be warranted, as the $12.50 and $13 Weekly Calls we mentioned both did well on the day.In fact that $13’s actually made a heck on an intraday rip from .04 to more than .20.

We’re still optimistic that PBR stock can continue to recover (after recently hitting all-time lows) and even test the 14.50-15.70 range, filling its gap on the chart. The next major resistance hurdle appears to be the 200DMA at 13.88.

As for the contracts holding our attention moving forward, we’re still looking at the May $12 Calls (which we’ve already followed from a low of .31 to Fridays high of 1.10, +255%) and also considering the June $14 Calls which closed at .47 on Friday.

Positive ID Corp. PSID

PSID is garnering our attention once again this morning. This was a winner for us when we re-alerted it back on Feb. 18th. If you recall, the stock was trading at a low of .0572 at the time, and we’d follow it all the way up to a subsequent high of .125. It then came back to find support off of the 200DMA in the mid-.06 range.

We observed a Golden Cross on the chart last week, a signal we are always looking out for, and an 8-K filed this morning only adds to our interest as we kick off another trading week.

It is in regard to a lucrative purchase order that the company has received from UTC Aerospace Systems, which will service the US Dept. of Defense contract for the JUPITR program (Joint United States Forces Korea Portal and Integrated Threat Recognition):
On March 28, 2014 PositiveID Corporation (the “Company” or “PositiveID”) entered into an agreement, in the form of a purchase order, from UTC Aerospace Systems (“UTAS”) to support a contract for the U.S. Department of Defense (“DoD”). This agreement is expected to be performed over the next seven months, between March and September, 2014. The terms of this fixed price agreement include a total value of $841,000 to PositiveID, paid in monthly installments over the next seven months.

This agreement will support the DoD Joint United States Forces Korea Portal and Integrated Threat Recognition (“JUPITR”) Program, which is intended to detect biological threats in order to protect our nation’s warfighters and allies. The JUPITR program will test and evaluate PositiveID’s biological detection and identification technology called M-BAND (Microfluidic Bioagent Autonomous Networked Detector). The assessment will baseline performance, reliability, maintainability, ease of use, and cost of operation to provide the “best of breed” and most affordable options for the U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force.

A copy of the agreement will be filed as an Exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The description of certain terms of the agreement set forth herein do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the provisions of that agreement.

Surna, Inc. SRNA

On Friday we added SRNA to our marijuana related watchlist, and were glad to have done so. We learned that SRNA’s new CEO is a former co-founder of Zynga, and the news was well received.

The stock shot out of the gate, rather quickly ballooning from its opening price of 2.99 up to 5.50 (+84%).

We also learned that in addition to a group of new directors, Surna entered into an agreement which effectively gained the company 14 intellectual property patents related to indoor climate control systems for cannabis growing in states where it is legal.

Blue Horseshoe: Even More New Cannabis Stocks

Before we get started this morning, we’d like to welcome our newest readers. If you’re just joining us, you’ve missed an awful lot, as the gains we’ve seen in 2014 have already wowed us beyond belief, but not to worry- We intend to keep this freight train moving full speed ahead! We’ll continue to work hard at bringing you advance warning on chances for rapid-strike profits, from sub-pennies to big boards, options trading and more! Without further ado, let’s jump into a brand new week of action.

United Treatment Centers, Inc. UTRM

We hope that everyone has UTRM on their radar this morning. It is a play with impressive momentum that we caught off of our scanner on Friday.

After opening at .0045, UTRM shot up to .0082 (+82%). It dipped back to .0067 in the afternoon, before making another push to a new high of .0088 (+31%), bringing cumulative intraday gains to 113% The overall move from the low to the high was 96%

UTRM traded over a billion shares last week, and appears to be gapping up past Friday’s resistance at .0089. so we wouldn’t be surprised to see that momentum carry over into this week. We are placing UTRM on high alert for that reason, as well as its entry into the pot sector.

Per a recent PR, UTRM has a new marijuana-related website coming out on the 28th, so we’ll be waiting to take a look at the finished product.

Newcomers to the Marijuana Sector

Due to the extreme gains we’ve seen from so many companies that have chosen to take advantage of recent hysterical trend toward everything cannabis, we have another couple stocks to throw into the mix.

G&S Minerals, Inc. GSML

GSML recently filed a statement of conversion with the Colorado Secretary of State, noting its intent to change its name to Cannabis Holdings, Inc. effective April 1st.

We are going to want to tack this symbol onto our marijuana stock watchlist as GSML attempts to make the transition into the pot sector. We’ll also we on the lookout for further updates regarding the specific direction the company takes.

Supreme Pharmaceuticals, Inc. SPRWF

SPRWF woke up from the dead on news that it too would pursue a place in the medical marijuana arena. Friday the stock shot up significantly, and looks like it wants to gap up again this morning.

Chasing runners of this magnitude can be a risky prospect, so remember, the eventual pullback that is bound to happen at some point, will often give rise to one or more substantial bounce opportunities.

CALGARY, ALBERTA, Mar 24, 2014 (Marketwired via COMTEX) — Supreme Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) (TSX VENTURE: SL)(OTCBB: SPRWF) is pleased to announce that the Company has signed a conditional agreement with an arms-length South Okanagan-based company, whereby the Company has the option to purchase its producing medical marijuana business for up to twelve months for the sum of $1,000,000, payable in cash and shares, subject to regulatory approval. The Company is currently in a 10-business day due diligence period and if satisfied, Supreme will make a $100,000 option payment.

Side Notes:
Plays that did well last week that we want to continue to monitor: MNGA, and PBR (May $12 Calls)

ORFG, ICLD, IDN, HEB, CAMT, PAL, CREG, UBIC

Blue Horseshoe: PBR, MLCG, MNGA & Extended Watchlist

Petroleo Brasileiro SA Petrobras (PBR)

We spotted this NYSE stock recently as it has bounced off of 10-year lows. PBR is going to be one that we monitor on more of a long-term basis. It has been awhile since we’ve come across a good recovery play, and the conditions on the PBR chart certainly point to the possibility of some nice upside potential.

As we point out on the following chart, PBR needs to break key resistance at 11.84 and 12.50 in order to make a run at the gap on its chart from 14.50-15.70. The filling of that gap from current prices would spell gains of more than 35%

In the meantime, we’re looking at the the PBR Options chain. The May 2nd $12 Calls could be promising, in the event that we continue to see a general recovery. Those contracts that are currently trading in the mid-.30’s could be worth as much as 3.00 if the stock returns to the $15-level.

For a quick daytrading idea, we are looking at the $11 Calls that expire at the end of the day. It appears as if PBR wants to gap down to start the session and we may see a possible dip-and-rip scenario.

ML Capital Group, Inc. MLCG

Speaking of dip-and-rip opportunities, that’s what we saw out of MLCG yesterday. After a morning gap-up, the stock came down to .09 before taking off again to hit a high of .12, a 33% intraday gain.

MLCG has proved to be a volatile mover since we’ve been following it (03/05), and has risen as much as 227% from its recent four-cent low.

MagneGas Corp. MNGA

We’ve been following MNGA throughout the week. We saw it start out by coming from a low of 1.15 on Monday, and subsequently run up to 1.78.

It then bottomed out in the low 1.20’s around mid-week, only for yesterday’s news that the company had been commissioned to provide torch-cutting fuel to four major demolition projects, carried it back up to 1.66.

We’re now watching its activity as it pulled back a third time, finding support at the 1.43-level, and is currently gapping up to reach new highs in the 1.90’s. From Monday’s low of 1.15, to this morning’s high of 1.97 marks an overall increase of 71%
