Blue Horseshoe Stocks: CVS Options & More

CVS Health Corp CVS

First up this morning, we’re taking a look at CVS, which is currently boasting an interesting chart setup along with a recent analyst upgrade.

The stock recently ran to an area of previous resistance near $84, and is currently down in the premarket along with the markets in general, but we’re going to be looking for a recovery.

As you can see on the annotated chart below, there appears to be an impending Golden Cross, with the 50DMA rising toward the 200DMA, and with the company’s quarterly earnings call slated for February 8th, we’re going to signal some options that could see some nice activity.

We’re going to radar the CVS 02/09 $77-80 Calls which will expire at the end of next week, and could explode with a favorable quarterly report.


Ballard Power Systems, Inc. BLDP – Update

We couldn’t have timed yesterday morning’s call of BLDP any better, outlining the reasons we thought the stock was ripe for a reversal. Among other things, it had strung together ten consecutive sessions of decreases or sideways trading, and yesterday brought the beginning of the rebound that we suspected was due.

From an early low of 3.39, BLDP made a modest, yet convincing move of 19% to a high of 4.04, before closing very near to the high of day at 4.02. It’s a good start, and we’ll want to see the stock continue to record higher highs and higher lows, and show some signs of sustaining its momentum.

Adding to the possibility of a continued uptrend is a PR regarding the company’s Protonex subsidiary this morning outlining a government purchase order of $1.6M for its power management systems for special operations military equipment.(>>View PR)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: INSY Recap & More

INSYS Therapeutics, Inc. INSY

As we were just mentioning yesterday morning, we’ve been tracking the INSY 01/19 $8 and $9 Calls since Wednesday morning.

After Friday’s session brought us some solid gains, we mentioned that we could be in line to see an extension to those moves, and that we’d look to roll up our strike price to the $10-level if the stock held above its premarket low of  9.75, which it did with no problem.

We were able to see some nice extensions to the highs we had already observed in the $8 and $9 Calls, and as a nice move on the $10’s as well. We’ve now witnessed the $8 Calls run from .90-3.20, for a gain of 255%, while the $9’s have gone up from .60 to 2.70, which works out to a 350% run. Excellent gains were there for the taking on the $10 Calls as well, as they ran from .70-1.80 on the day, a 157% rip.

A play on the stock alone from the low on Wednesday following our initial alert at  7.64, to yesterday’s high of 11.62, would have been good for gains of up to 52%and the stock has trended even higher in the premarket this morning, so we’ll be on the lookout for this party to possibly keep rolling.



Pot Stock Updates

We’d also like to swing back around to provide updates for a couple of our favorite cannabis plays. Back on November 7th, we reminded our readers of what a big year 2018 was gearing up to be for the marijuana business. We included a list of cannabis plays to watch closely, and among them was ACBFF and TRTC. Two stocks that we’ve been tracking for years.

Neither one has gone any lower since November, and in fact each have gone on to make some fantastic moves in the last 7 weeks. The excellent gains made available by these plays were as follows:

Aurora Cannabis, Inc. ACBFF –  Range: 2.7776-9.50 – Max Gain: 242%

Terra Tech Corp. TRTC – Range: .1885-.578 – Max Gain: 207%

There;s not going to be any slowdown in our tenacity to cover cannabis stocks as we progress into the new year. California kicked off legal recreational sales this week, and Canada will do so in just six short months. 2018 is set to be a very green year!

We mentioned this yesterday morning, subsequent to which point the stock launched into another bullish session. dwarfing Monday’s performance. It traded from a low of .65 right at the outset, to an afternoon high of 1.50, which works out to an intraday upswing of 130% and a two-day swing of 200%

Our post-earnings beat options ideas for CAT yesterday morning were the CAT Weekly $136-141 Calls. While every set of contracts did see upward movement, we’re only going to list the numbers for the $136-138’s, as the gains in the $139-141’s were minimal by comparison. We did however, see two separate chances for swing trades on the day.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: HUGE Day on Friday & More

Recapping Our HUGE Day on Friday

We had winners cropping up all across the board on Friday, with our options idea, as well as a couple stocks from our watchlist all having really solid sessions to close out the week, the month, and the 2nd Quarter.

Nike, inc. NKE – We signaled our interest in a range of Nike calls, and were not disappointed in the results. Our targets were the 07/07 $55.50-57 Calls and they all posted considerable gains on the day.

$55.50 Calls – Range: 1.89-4.01 – Max Gain: 112%
$56 Calls – Range: .98-3.33 – Max Gain: 240%
$56.50 Calls – Range: .77-2.95 – Max Gain: 283%
$57 Calls – Range: .51-2.52 – Max Gain: 394%

NKE wasn’t the first set of options ideas we crushed last week. We also tagged contracts in the DRI and CBI chains that subsequently went on multi-bag runs. As always, we strive to deliver a varied range of ideas for traders, and options are a huge part of that.
____

Digital Power Corp. DPW – After tagging it in our watchlist in Friday’s premarket report, DPW had a very respectable intraday swing right out the gate that morning. The stock ran from a low of .65 and reached as high as 1.05, which represents a 62% pop.

The stock couldn’t sustain more than half of that gain into the close, however it is trading up slightly in the premarket today. We’ll want to continue to monitor this play, watching for the building of higher base levels of support over the course of this short and divided holiday week.
_____

ShiftPixy, Inc. PIXY – Speaking of solid runners from Friday’s report that are showing signs of bullish premarket activity today, we’ve also got PIXY, a stock that IPO’d on Friday. A close contact in our vast network of traders gave us the heads up on the commencement of trading in PIXY, and we took the opportunity to pass it along to our readers by including it in our watchlist.

We weren’t sorry that we did, as its first day of trading was very positive. From its opening price of 6.30, PIXY traded up to 7.74, for a respectable intraday rise of 23%, nearly all of which it held into the close. This morning, the stock is gapping up in the premarket, having already hit a new high of 8.48 and extended our observed range to 35%

We’re quite anxious to see how this new stock will progress from here, even if the timing of tomorrow’s holiday isn’t ideal. If PIXY continues to be a huge hit with the investment community, just remember, you heard it here first!


The Players Network PNTV

Given the fact that it streaked to new all time highs to close out the week on Friday, we want to swing back around to pat ourselves on the back heartily for PNTV.

We originally brought this stock to our readers back in October of last year, after which time the stock was trading for as little as .012. Flash forward to Friday of last week, and the stock has rocketed all the way to .127 marking an incredible increase of 958%

However, even if you’re newer to our reports and only caught our most recent alert on PNTV on June 13th, you still had the opportunity for profits of up to 34% as the range in that time span ran from .0951 to the new high of.127. With the stock firmly blue sky territory, there’s no telling where this ride will end up!

Additionally, Nevada’s recreational marijuana sales kicked off over the weekend, so that ramps up the intrigue with this play, considering the fact that the company was recently grated two licenses to supply recreational consumers in that state.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Updates, Special Reminder

Connexus Corp. CNXS

We tagged CNXS in a bitcoin-related watchlist in Thursday’s premarket report, and the stock finished out the week on an extremely high note. From our observed low on Thursday, it made a fantastic two-day swing for us.

CNXS traded up from .0007, cracked through from super-subpenny to subpenny range, and hit a high of .0017, a 143% move which occurred on heavy volume.

We weren’t very surprised to see some nice plays come out of that watchlist, as bitcoin stocks are trending considerably at present.


Viva Entertainment Group, Inc. OTTV

Speaking of super-subpenny plays, from Friday’s extended watchlist came OTTV, a stock which hasn’t been trading too far above its 52-week lows recently.

We saw a solid run from OTTV on our first day of observation with the stock trading up from .0004- to .0007 for an intraday rip of 75% on slightly greater-than-average volume.


Big Lots, Inc. BIG – Options Update

Before breaking for the long weekend we wanted to try to continue a pattern of post-earnings options trading success we’ve had this spring. We did so with the BIG 06/16 $55 & 57.50 Calls, and were very pleased at those contracts’ performances for our first day of tracking.

The $55’s put up a fantastic run from .02-.10 for a 400% banger on the day, while the $57.50’s made a nice round double-bagger trading from .05 to .10 on the day. With more than two weeks still remaining until expiration, we’ll continue to keep watch over these plays.
