Blue Horseshoe Stocks: BP Options Review & More

BP plc (BP) – Options Review

Our fresh options idea from yesterday morning’s premarket report was was to track the BP Weekly $32-33.50 Calls for possible daytrade opportunities and we got just what we were looking for.

The strength of the company Q1 earnings report kicked the PPS up high enough to produce some solid moves out of each play in our highlighted range of contracts:

$32 Calls – Trading Range: 1.20-1.56 – Max Gain: 30%
$32.50 Calls – Trading Range:  .79-1.10 – Max Gain: 39%
$33 Calls– Trading Range:  .49-.73  – Max Gain: 49%
$33.50 Calls – Trading Range: .20-.39 – Max Gain: 95%

BP closed at its highs and traded even higher in the post-market, and we’re seeing a gap-up in the premarket this morning as well. We’ll look for a continuation of momentum into today’s session, wherein those options could be in line for further gains. In addition to watching those contracts, we may look to roll our strike price up in the event BP can surge past the $34-mark.

Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. SRPT – Fresh Idea

SRPT caught our eye this morning as were searching for bottom-bounce candidates, as the stock fits the bill to a tee. After being beaten back to new 52-week lows this week, the stock posted a strong recovery session yesterday that has us thinking about potential options plays.

We’re going to monitor SRPT to see if it can test yesterday’s swing high of 11.50. We’re going to be tracking the activity in the SRPT Weekly $10.50 and $11 Calls.

Bonus Bottom-Watchlist:

That same search yielded a couple of other stocks trading at or near their own 52-week lows. We always like a good bounce-play and these are the types of stocks that most often produce them.

Active Power, Inc. ACPW took a pounding into heavily oversold territory yesterday after a sizable gap-down, so we’ll be watching that over the next few sessions for a possible snap-back.

First Acceptance,Inc FAC rebounded a little after setting a new annual low yesterday as well, so we’ll look for possible signs of a continued recovery there.

WRES, GEVO, UNXL, CRC, DWA(Buyout talks)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: CDNL Recap, Potential Bottom-Play & More

Cardinal Resources, Inc. CDNL

CDNL is a stock that we’ve had on our radar since last month, and over the past several sessions it has built itself a heck of a chart, registering higher lows on each of the past six trading days.

We reminded our readers of our interest in CDNL again this week, re-mentioning it on Tuesday, and in the three-session span since that reminder went out, we’ve seen a 146% swing from .0057-.014. Based on a number of factors, we feel that there could be something left in the tank for this play, and we will continue to track its progress provided it can maintain support at or above the current 50DMA of .008 on any upcoming consolidations.

As we’ve highlighted on the following snapshot, the RSI on CDNL just breached into the power zone, while the MACD is giving off a bullish signal as well.

Sarepta Therapeutics, Inc. SRPT – Options Idea

SRPT is gapping up in a big way this morning, and thus we’d like to formulate an options idea to possibly take advantage of the setup we’re seeing.

The stock has already traded as high as $34-range in the premarket, and if it can hold above the 50DMA which we’ve pointed out on the chart below and continue its ascent, we’re going to be very interested in the Weekly $32-35 Calls and their potential for big moves today.

*We always like to remind our subscribers, especially those that have just joined our ranks, of the inherently elevated risk/reward dynamic that comes with trading weekly options contracts on a Friday. As we’ve explained in the past, time-decay starts to become a big factor with expiration coming at the closing bell- premiums evaporate, volatility naturally increases, and some huge opportunities for quick-strike swing trades can present themselves. 

Bon-Ton Stores, Inc. BONT – Extended-Term Bottom-Watch

We’ve had success with BONT in the past, and recently the stock has taken an epic pounding, culminating in a cliff-diving session yesterday. Whenever we spot activity like this, we go into vulture mode, carefully observing for a bounce signal. A correctly timed bottom here could result in a prime rebound play, so we’ll keep a keen watch over BONT today, and into next week.
