Blue Horseshoe Afternoon Updates

For the second day in a row, performances from the subjects of our morning report have necessitated an afternoon follow-up. We managed to pile up several chances for big gains, even with the temporary glitch that left OTC trading halted for roughly an hour around lunchtime. It was the second such outage in the past month.


BG Medicine, Inc. BGMD

BGMD leads the way, with an excellent showing this morning. After seeing a low of .6115, the stock streaked upward and went on to hit highs in the 1.20’s. Gains approaching 100% have been possible thus far as BGMD has reached its highest levels since August.


Tiger Oil & Energy, Inc. TGRO

TGRO continued its uptrend this morning, topping out at .635. That marks a possible gain of 32% from today’s low, and a whopping 76% from Monday’s low following our initial alert.


Rambus, Inc. RMBS

RMBS was yet another winner this morning, coming off of our extended watchlist and powering its way to a 28% intraday gain from 8.25 to 10.57.


Navidea Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. NAVB

We put NAVB on our radars this morning after it popped up on our news feed, and has put up a solid move of 16%, with a daily range from 1.90-2.20.

TGRO, WMIH, BGMD, ZGNX, NAVB & Extended Watchlist

Tiger Oil & Energy, Inc. TGRO

For those of you who may have missed yesterday’s morning and afternoon reports on TGRO, the stock had a marquee day, putting up one of the best performances in the whole of the OTC Markets.

On more than 20x the 3mo. average volume, TGRO bulled its way upward throughout the day, starting at a low of .36 and reaching as high as .524, good for a strong intraday move and chance for up to a 46% profit. A strong close at .52 effectively puts us on the lookout for continued momentum this morning, though as always, traders should use caution on a stock that has seen such rapid increases.

Our timely mention of TGRO (coming just a day after the stock woke up from the dead) also put us at the top of Monday’s Penny Stock Rumble:


WMI Holdings Corp. WMIH

WMIH appeared on our Blue Horseshoe Stocks blog with yesterday afternoon’s alert, at which time the stock was trading in the 1.42 area. It would go on to experience a 27% move to 1.81 in the final hours of the session.

WMIH is now heading into uncharted territory, being the highest it’s ever been. We are going to be cautious for a pullback, and in that event we’d like to see the previous resistance, our alert price of 1.42, hold as support.

SEATTLE, Dec. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — WMI Holdings Corp. (WMIH) (“WMI” or the “Company”) today announced that KKR & Co. L.P. has entered into a conditional commitment letter to make a strategic investment in the Company (the “Commitment Letter”), dated December 8, 2013. >>>Read Release


BG Medicine, Inc. BGMD

We’ve also got a new item for your tickers this morning. BGMD has news out, and looks set for an interesting session as the stock is gapping up in pre-market trading, coming off of recent lows and breaking above the 50DMA (.64), a recent area of resistance.

We’ll be monitoring BGMD today as it reacts to this morning’s announcement:

WALTHAM, Mass., Dec 10, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE via COMTEX) — BG Medicine, Inc. (Nasdaq:BGMD) announced today that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) have published the final determination of the 2014 Medicare national limitation amount for the Company’s galectin-3 blood test (analyte-specific CPT(R) Code 82777) at the amount of a crosswalked test (analyte-specific CPT(R) Code 84244) whose 2014 national limitation amount is $30.01. This national limitation amount will replace the galectin-3 blood test’s national limitation amount of $17.80 that was effective in 2013.

Extended Watchlist:
GERN, ARIA, CNDO, RMBS, VTNC, BLRX, NWBO

CNAT, GOGO, UNIS, CAMT & Extended Watchlist

Conatus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. CNAT

We caught CNAT on our scanner this morning, and is definitely a stock we’d like to keep an eye on today, following an FDA-related announcement regarding a drug that the company has under development receiving “Orphan Drug” status. FDA plays have provided us with countless opportunities in the past, especially when the news is untraded upon, so we’ll be interested to see how well CNAT fares today as a result.

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 2, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Conatus Pharmaceuticals Inc. (CNAT), today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Orphan Drug Designation to Conatus’ drug candidate emricasan for the treatment of liver transplant recipients with reestablished fibrosis to delay the progression to cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease. The FDA’s Orphan Drug Designation program is intended to encourage the development of drugs and biologics that may provide benefit to patients suffering from rare diseases or conditions.

Conatus is developing emricasan, a first-in-class, orally active caspase protease inhibitor designed to reduce the activity of enzymes that mediate inflammation and cell death (or apoptosis), for the treatment of patients with chronic liver disease and significant unmet medical need.


GOGO, Inc. GOGO

We have been hot on the trail of GOGO since our first mention on Monday Sept. 16th when it was trading as low as 14.79. We witnessed the stock’s 52-wk high a few weeks later on Nov. 14th (31.55), and then it consolidated to find support at 24.24.

Yesterday, GOGO re-established its 52-wk high at 31.65, and appears to want to gap up and continue its run today. This morning, the company has news out concerning the green light is has received to install its wifi satellite technology on Boeing 747 aircraft. and we’ve seen pre-market trades going off as high as 32.75. From our original alert price, that marks registers as a 121% gain. Heading into today’s session, we’d like to see the previous 52-wk high of 31.55 hold as support on any future pullbacks.

ITASCA, Ill., Dec. 2, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — Gogo (NASDAQ: GOGO), the world leader of in-flight connectivity and a pioneer in wireless in-flight digital entertainment solutions, passed a key milestone in launching its international connectivity service by receiving an STC to install its Ku-satellite technology on Boeing 747-400 aircraft.

The service will also offer passengers Gogo Vision, Gogo’s wireless in-flight entertainment service.


Unilife Corp. UNIS

UNI hits our radar screens as another play with fresh news and a chart that is gapping up premarket. UNIS has a potentially lucrative arrangement in the works with European Pharma giant, Novartis.

YORK, Pa., Dec. 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — Unilife Corporation (“Unilife” or “Company”) (NASDAQ: UNIS, ASX: UNS) today announced an agreement with Novartis to supply clinical products from one of its platforms of injectable drug delivery systems for use with one of Novartis’ targeted early-stage pipeline drugs.

Unilife has granted Novartis an option for exclusivity under this agreement.



Camtek, Ltd. CAMT

Yesterday wasn’t the first time we’ve mentioned CAMT on our extended watchlist only to see the stock turn in an impressive performance; last Monday, we tagged CAMT as a possible runner, and subsequently witnessed a pop from 4.11-5.29 (+29%). In a repeat of that scenario, yesterday we saw the stock trade from a low of 4.20 on up to 5.75, for a possible gain of 37%

Cheers to anyone who was able to take advantage of those very timely alerts!


Extended Watchlist:
IACH, OMED, ETRM, FRO, DGLY, NAVB

ATOS, CTIC, APP & Extended Watchlists

Atossa Genetics, Inc.  ATOS

We tacked ATOS onto our extended watchlist yesterday morning, noting that the stock was in the midst of a “Huge gap down” and that we were “watching for a potential bounce”. Indeed that was the case, as the stock touched a low of 2.54 before a reversal carried it as high 3.18, a 25% intraday gain. As usual, when we see big gap-downs, we are looking out for quick-strike opportunities that allow us to make a rapid profit and a timely exit.We have uncovered a few other stocks fitting that profile that we will be monitoring for similar activity today:

Tower Group Intl. Ltd. TWGP

CEL-SCI Corp. CVM

Celgene Corp. CELGZ


Cell Therapeutics, Inc. CTIC
Another play from yesterday’s extended watchlist, CTIC opened at its low of day, and rumbled upward for a 23% move, closing at the high of day on nearly 12X its 3mo. average volume. In doing so, it managed to break a previous swing high at 1.80, a level we’d like to see hold as support moving forward.

We prepared the the following video chart on CTIC:

With the kind of momentum CTIC built up over the course of the day yesterday, this is one play that will be near the top of our watchlists in the near future. The catalyst here seems to be an agreement announced yesterday between the company and the FDA as outlined in the press release below.

SEATTLE, Oct. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (CTI) (NASDAQ and MTA: CTIC) today announced that the company reached agreement with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on a Special Protocol Assessment (SPA) for the planned pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial, known as the PERSIST-2 trial, evaluating pacritinib compared to best available therapy, including approved JAK2 inhibitors such as ruxolitinib, in patients with myelofibrosis whose platelet counts are <100,000/uL.

American Apparel, Inc. APP

APP is another stock we have tracked for an extended period of time. We have been watching this one to sniff out a bottom for the past few months, and wanted to re-enter it into the conversation today, as that point may be drawing near. A quick peek at the chart below clearly shows just that:


Extended Watchlist:

JCP, AGEN, CBMX, NAVB, TKMR

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: FWDG, STKO & Extended Watchlist

We’d like to welcome all of our new subscribers to our daily reports. You are entering the fray at just the right time, as our picks of late have been extremely formidable. With winners in GOFF (+128%), MYEC (153%), GESI (+195%), and EXMT (667%), it seems everything we look at recently has done very well, and today’s mentions are no different:

FutureWorld Energy, Inc. FWDG

We would like to congratulate anyone that picked up on our watchlist alert of FWDG on Tuesday.  That day, the stock traded in a range from .0013-.004, closing out at .003. Then, yesterday, we saw the price continue to increase, this time trading from  .003-01, and closing at .0073. A move from the low since our initial alert at .0013 to yesterday’s high of a penny represents a massive 669% gain in just two days.

As you can see on this chart, the main areas of resistance appear to be at .01, .02, .025. Following that, there isn’t any resistance until we reach the mid-teens.

Back in 2009, this stock ran from .004 all the way to .16, gaining a whopping 3900%  While past performance is never a guarantee of future results, provided the share structure hasn’t changed much since then, it could be possible to see history repeat itself with FWDG.

Stakool, Inc. STKO

STKO is another stock we’ve been tracking recently, appearing again on yesterday’s extended watchlist. It has been making higher highs and higher lows this week, and yesterday, it traded nearly 5X its 3mo. average volume. The daily range was .0003-.0006, and it was possible to get in and out for 67%, from the day’s low, to the close of .0005___
