Keeping the Options Train Rolling

Big Name Earners Yield Solid Gains:

It was a big day for options plays on Friday, when we put forth a full slate of potential earnings-related ideas in our premarket report. With the exception of some longer-term targets expiring next month, all four of our short range formulations made some serious moves for us on the day.

Our designated areas of interest for Friday were the AXP Weekly $155-157.50 Calls, the SLB Weekly $34-35 Calls, the SNAP Weekly $13-11.50 Puts, and the VZ Weekly $47-45.50 Puts. It was great way to cap off an immensely exciting trading week, and a continuation of the routinely successful run of plays that we always seem to root out for our morning newsletter which, in our opinion, is the best no-nonsense, totally free source of options daytrading insights and ideas on the planet.

Here were the excellent opportunities Friday’s ventures brought to us:

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Reviewing Big Runners

Gevo, Inc. GEVO

We threw GEVO into our extended watchlist on our website at BlueHorseshoeStocks.com yesterday morning, however, the tag did not make it into our email newsletters in time. Occasionally we will include last-minute ideas exclusive to the website, which is which we encourage our readers to check there each morning, even if they’ve already read our emails.

GEVO turned out to be the NASDAQ’s top traded stock of the day, posting an excellent single-session move from 4.42 to an impressive high of 21.00; a 375% rip.

This came on the heels of the EPA decision raising the amount of isobutanol in 16% gasoline blends, up from 12.5% This represents a significant margin of increase for the biofuel producer. With such a quick surge, we’ll also want to watch on the back end when the stock course corrects. There may also be a dip-and-rip opportunity on the horizon that we’ll be looking out for.


Canada Goose Holdings Inc. GOOS

We successfully tracked a host of GOOS weekly options calls on Friday morning, but today we wanted to return to comment on the solid move the stock itself has made since our alert.

From its low of 53.18 on Friday, GOOS has now made a very respectable two-session swing, reaching 63.30 yesterday. That’s a 25% increase, and for or a $50+ stock, a very nice two day performance.


Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. AMD

Speaking of great calls we’ve made on the stock side of things, we’ve been very successful with our coverage of AMD this spring. We initially tagged the stock in our watchlist on April 26th, and included a reminder on the 5th of this month, as the stock has posted a near-continual bull run in that time.

The day of our initial alert saw a low of 10.61 and never looked back, gradually leading to a new high of 17.34 yesterday. That works out to a rise of 64%
