Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Stock Updates & More

DURRECT Corp. DRRX

We began tracking DRRX last month, with our initial alert coming on the morning of 08/07. Subsequent to that report, the stock recorded a low of 1.22, and yesterday, reached a new high of 2.46.

That works out to a clean double-bag move of 102% in a matter of six weeks. The stock has been on the rise for two months now, so we’ll be interested to see where it will ultimately find itself.

Avadel Pharma Inc. AVDL

We freshly tagged AVDL in yesterday morning’s premarket report, and while it didn’t make our heads spin, the stock did produce a solid intraday gain on our first day of tracking it.

From a low of 4.13, the stock reached a high of 5.37 on the day, which registers as a 30% upswing. We’ll continue to keep it on our watchlist as we head into midweek.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: OSTK Update & More

Overstock.com, Inc. OSTK

On Friday, we identified a pair of options targets for OSTK, the 10/04 $15.50 & 16 Calls. Despite falling to the low side toward the end of the day, there were some early opportunities for our designated contracts.

The $15.50 Calls traded up from 1.50-1.90 for a notable 27% intraday move, while the $16 Calls traded in a range from 1.40-1.96 (+40%).

With the late session dip, OSTK fell considerably, but we view this as no less than a buy-in opportunity on these very same contracts. We like the chances of seeing a quick rebound, and the potential for further gains out of these plays over the course of the next trading week or two.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: EROS Update & More

Eros International Plc. EROS

We revisited EROS yesterday morning, just under one month following our August 21st report, mentioning its recent run which began from a low of 1.20.

The stock was moving in the premarket in the wake of a news announcement placing the company in partnership with Microsoft. We felt the news had a chance to carry the stock even higher than we had seen it run already, and that’s just what yesterday’s session brought.

EROS ran to a new high of 3.92, which marked an overall increase of 227% over our observed low roughly three weeks ago. The performance was also good enough to land the stock in the #1 slot on the NASDAQ daily top gainers list.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Fresh Options Plays

MasterCraft Boat Holdings, Inc. MCFT – Fresh Idea
–
We’ve picked up on a very interesting chart shape in Mastercraft this morning. The stock was well on its way to a solid recovery after bouncing off of its bottom at the end of last month. Despite the company’s earnings beat yesterday, the stock saw a gap-down followed by another bottom bounce.

We are interested in tracking the MCFT 10/18 $15-17.50 Calls in the weeks ahead, which will work out quite nicely if the stock manages another rebound similar to the one it exhibited in recent weeks.

Overstock.com Inc OSTK – Recap

The last time we tagged OSTK was a couple of weeks ago, on the morning of August 27th. We had scored some solid opportunities with short-term options in its chain the week before, but that report was a simple tag on the stock itself.

Subsequent to that highlight of OSTK, the stock saw a low of 14.72. That was followed by seven consecutive bull sessions by the stock, including yesterday’s which sent OSTK to a new high 27.38. That works out to an upswing of 86% in the month of September alone.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: SPY Explodes

SPDR S&P500 (ETF) SPY – Options Update

We have got a very brief update for today’s newsletter concerning our fresh options trading idea from yesterday morning in the SPY Chain. We cautioned readers that after Friday’s market sell-off, we looked to be in line for a ‘dead-cat bounce’ for stocks, and that is exactly what occurred.

Our idea was to track the SPY Weekly $287-288.50 Calls as the markets reversed, and not only did we get the rebound we were after, but the gains persisted throughout the entirety of the session.

That made for some truly spectacular profit possibilities, especially the $288 Calls, which produced an epic intraday upswing:

SPY Weekly $287-288.50 Calls
$287 Calls – Range: .17-1.35 – Max Gain: 694%
$287.50 Calls – Range: .05-.91 – Max Gain: 1720%
$288 Calls – Range: .01-.43 – Max Gain: 4200%
$288.50 Calls – Range: .01-.07 – Max Gain: 600%

Updated Idea:
We would like to update this SPY idea to stay close to the action, and will be tracking the
SPY 08/28 $288.50-290.50 Calls through today and into tomorrow.
