Blue Horseshoe Stocks: GRLT Recap, Options Ideas & More

Healthy & Tasty Brands Corp. GRLT

In Friday’s morning report, we tagged GRLT, a super-subpenny play, for observation and the stock did make a nice initial move right out of the starting gate. It had been continually building a higher base level of support since the end of August, and continued that trend as it ran from .0005-.0007; a 40% jump. The move came on approximately 3X the 3-month average volume, and GRLT did manage to hold a PPS of .0006 into the close.

This is one that we’ll continue to watch for possible intraweek swing-trade opportunities in the near future. As we mentioned in Friday’s report, we’ll need to see it maintain support at or above the current 50DMA of .0004 in order for it to hold our attention moving forward.

Amazon.com, Inc. AMZN – Options Update

One of our main points of focus on Friday was an idea we formulated for the AMZN options chain. Looking at the activity on the AMZN chart as it was breaking out, we came up with an extended-term target of the AMZN 10/16 $550 Calls  and we saw some immediate response from those contracts. They traded in a daily range from 10.17 up to 11.89 marking a solid 17% increase.

If AMZN can continue its uptrend to the point of testing it’s annual highs, our targeted Calls will be pushed deep into the money, and in that case, would produce further opportunities down the road.

Apple, Inc. AAPL _ Options Idea

AAPL is gapping up this morning on positive pre-sale numbers for the new iPhone 6S Plus, and we’re going to go ahead and formulate an idea for some possible intraday/intraweek options-trading opportunities.

We want to signal our interest in AAPL Weekly $115-116.50 Calls on the heels of what could be a potential dip-and-rip scenario on the chart. Either way, we’ll be watching AAPL activity closely as we kick off this new trading week.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PBR Update & More

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR When we touched base with PBR on Wednesday morning, we mentioned that we were expecting some opportunities to come our way provided that the stock could hold support at or above its 200DMA (13.69).

We also showed interest in the July 19th $15 Calls, which, leading up to that point, had been trading in the .30-.38 range, and even ventured so far as to say that a double or triple could be possible. That move came rather quickly over the remainder of the trading week, as those contracts dipped as low as .25, and by the end of the day on Friday had come all the way back to close at .61.

For us, that represented an excellent three-session move, allowing gains of up to 144% for options traders. The stock itself made a modest move up also, to the tune of 8% from 13.62 to 14.77.

The PBR chart is still looking quite ripe, with several bullish indicators catching our attention. The RSI is strengthening rapidly, there appears to be a MACD cross in the making, and provided the stock can maintain support at or above the channel between the 50DMA of 14.19 and Friday’s swing low of 14.32, we like the chances of seeing even more gains from PBR.

For intraday/intraweek flip opportunities, we can look into the $14-$15 Weekly Calls, but granted the overall trend continues, a longer-term play will continue to be the 07/19 $15’s, which as we said, have already afforded us a double-bagger.

Shamika 2 Gold, Inc. SHMX

On Thursday, we added SHMX to the mix as a sub-penny play that had struck us as having some potential. As with the majority of stocks trading in the triple-zero range, SHMX is susceptible to rapid swings in price, and we saw that first hand as we closed out the week. On Friday, the stock saw a low of .0003, and a subsequent upswing to its closing price of .0005.

That made it possible for traders to nab a quick profit of 67%  We always want to be extremely cautious when dealing with volatile plays in this price range, as they are not for the faint-hearted. Quick-strike trades are the order of the day, and for more skilled traders, proper timing of each dip and rip can lead to gains really piling up.
