Blue Horseshoe Stocks: SPY Recap

SPDR S&P500 (ETF) SPY

As we close out another solid week of stock and options trading, we just wanted to provide one final update on the SPY Calls we made earlier in the week. The markets dipped in the first half of the session yesterday, but recovered throughout the rest of the day.

Our idea from our premarket report on Wednesday morning of the SPY Weekly $296-297 Calls all produced double-bag intraday opportunities, and the two sets that we rolled up to include on our watchlist, the $297.50 and $298 Calls, kicked in multi-bag performances of their own.

$296 Calls – Range: .99-2.16 – Max Gain: 118%
$296.50 Calls – Range: .74-1.76 – Max Gain: 138%
$297 Calls – Range: .55-1.39 – Max Gain: 153%

$297.50 Calls – Range: .40-1.05 – Max Gain: 163%
$298 Calls – Range: .27-.77 – Max Gain: 185%

Just as there was yesterday, there may be another dip and rip chance for opportunistic traders to seize upon, so we’ll leave these plays on our radar as we finish out the week.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PIR Run Continues & More

Pier 1 Imports, Inc. PIR 

We began tracking Pier 1 toward the end of last month on the 27th. At the time, the stock was trading for as little as 3.92/share.

The performance it has put together over the last three-plus weeks has been nothing short of astonishing. Ignoring all market trends, the stock has been in a near-continual uptrend, which culminated at a new high of 14.64 yesterday. That represents an excellent 273% increase inside of a month!


Weatherford International plc  WFTIQ

Speaking of recent stock calls we’ve made that have enjoyed impressive performances, we wanted to update readers on the status of WFTIQ in recent weeks.

We initially alerted WFTIQ a couple of weeks ago on September 10th. We caught this one at a low of .0198, and it has now run to an even .04. That’s a two-week upswing of 102%

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.
