Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Updates on IGC, MY, NEWL & Extended Watchlist

Extended Watchlist Winners:
Yesterday’s Extended Watchlist unearthed a couple of gems, so let’s start things off today by congratulating those who were able to capitalize on the ample chances to profit that these plays offered:

India Globalization Capital, Inc. (IGC)

IGC rewarded us for our attention with a bullish session that saw its low before 10am and ran into the close. From a daily low of 1.27, the stock pushed its way all the way up to 2.08, a highly respectable 64% intraday move, with a couple of vital swings in between that could have been timed for even more opportunities.

It did so on roughly 40x its 3-month average volume, giving us another clue that this could be a play with continued momentum. Even now, in early pre-market trading the stock has run as high as the 2.20’s so we’ll be on the lookout for one of two things; either the momentum carries it further, or profit-taking causes a pullback, in which case we’d be watching for a classic dip-and-rip on the rebound.

If the severity of yesterday’s swing action on the chart spills over into today, there could in fact be several intraday moves that we may be able to use to our advantage.

China Ming Yang Wind Power Group Limited (MY)

The other success from yesterday’s watchlist was MY. This play was one of the most gradual gainers you’re likely to see. Following its daily low of 2.83 it stair-stepped its way into the close at its high of day at 3.63. That was good for a solid intraday gain of 28% on more than four times the 3-month average volume.

Much like the previously mentioned play, we’ll be looking for MY to possibly continue its upward movement today after settling down from what appears to be another pre-market gap-up. In morning trading so far, the stock has pushed past yesterday’s high; if we see another dip-and-rip today it will be the third consecutive session in which one has occurred.


NewLead Holdings Ltd. NEWL

As we stated yesterday, we’ve been following NEWL for awhile now, and the recovery we’re seeing off of its recent bottom of .3867 has sprouted into a multi-day run that has been nothing short of impressive.

The stock gained even more ground following our morning report, wherein we mentioned that we wanted to see a break of the pre-market high of 4.20. We got that and more, as NEWL went on to reach 4.79 with volume 15x greater than normal.

Modest intraday gains of 26% were possible with NEWL yesterday, but the truly impressive figure is the five-session increase we’ve now witnessed from the above-mentioned low to yesterday’s high, which stood at 1138%

The stock also landed us in the Penny Stock Rumble for the day’s largest dollar-volume pick, with more than $160M worth of shares changing hands on the day.


Added Comments:

The markets as a whole had their best day all month on Wednesday, and it translated into gains for us. The overall sentiment is that conditions should remain favorable as long as the Fed holds off on any changes in interest rates. Following the revelation that there would be no increase at this time, the following four major players began to run:

FB, GOGO, PCLN, TSLA

We’ll be monitoring the Options Call action on all of these big-board plays for continued momentum today.


Extended Watchlist:
RENN, ROYL, CTIC, NIHD, LIQD

ERBB, FITX, PROW, REVI & Extended Watchlist

Tranzbyte Corp. ERBB

Turning our focus back to cannabis stocks yesterday proved to be a good decision, as more than a couple of them put up great performances on the day. Among those most impressive was ERBB, a stock that we’ve had on our radar for well over a year now.

During the ‘Green Rush’ that took place the first week of this year, we saw the stock shoot from the .002-range up to .0146. Upon pulling back, it found support and bounced from .0056, and made its way back as high as .011. It would pull back one more time, to .0063, before hitting a high of .0118 yesterday on extremely high volume. It’s safe to say that ERBB has brought us a host of huge gain opportunities in just the past few weeks.

We want to continue to keep an eye on ERBB. To find out why, take a look at the following video chart we’ve prepared:

Yesterday’s News:


Creative Edge Nutrition, Inc. FITX

FITX continued to breakout following yesterday’s report, trading immense volume (350M shares) to the tune of roughly 5X its 3mo. average, and hitting a high of .0648.

We ran across an interesting article regarding federal regulations for banks who wish to lend to marijuana-related companies. Attorney General Eric Holder announced that the fed intends to make it easier for banks to deal with these companies in the past. That means companies like FITX and many of the others we’ve talked about should be able to open up avenues toward better funding. >>>READ ARTICLE


Progress Watch Corp. PROW

Our recent favorite, PROW, continued to provide ample opportunities yesterday as it opened up trading as low as .0315, before touching a daily high of .079, a 151% intraday spike. From the low following our initial alert (.0067) on December 20th, PROW had seen a monumental increase of 1080% at yesterday’s high.


Resource Ventures, Inc. REVI

Yesterday, REVI touched a new high since we’ve been following it, at .011. That marks an overall gain of up to 49% since our initial report on Tuesday. It traded better-than-average volume, and maintained the support we were looking to see held at .0085.

We’re still waiting for the potential upcoming Golden Cross that appears to be forming on the REVI chart.


Options Trading Idea: TSLA $175 and $180 Weekly Calls for possible daytrading opportunity.

LUNA, KOOL, BDSI, ADMP


TSLA Options, CANN & Extended Watchlist

Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA

It isn’t every day that we make options-trading picks, but when we do, they’re usually pretty accurate. On Wednesday, we floated the idea that the TSLA $165 and $170 Weekly Calls were looking attractive, and priming up for possible breakouts. As you can see on the following charts, that assumption proved to be a good one; both contracts would yield opportunities at multi-bag gains.

The $170 Calls were as low as .50 and hit a high of 3.85, representing a 670% move.

  The $165 Calls traded from a low of 1.55 up to 7.95 on Thursday, an intraday swing of 413%

In order to squeeze added gains from these contracts, we’ll need to see TSLA stock to hold support at or above 168.80, and we’re looking for a break of resistance at 172.70. Pre-market trades are currently going off in the 171.50-range.


Advanced Cannabis Solutions, Inc. CANN

CANN has been very good to us in the short while we’ve been tracking it (1st alert, 01/08, Low of 6.31). We’ve included it in every newsletter since Tuesday, and every day it has bulled its way to new highs. Yesterday, it hit 23.35, marking a rise of 270% from our initial alert, which came just six trading sessions ago.

This has been one cannabis stock that has sustained its trend quite well, even as movement in some of the others has slowed. However, just because the feeding frenzy we witnessed in the first week of the new year has calmed down, that doesn’t mean we’ve taken our eyes off of the sector. We expect pot stocks to continue to be one of the more popular items on the speculative trader’s agenda in 2014.

Sector Side Note: Easton Pharmaceutical, Inc. EAPH – One of the other marijuana stocks we’ve followed, EAPH had consolidated off of its recent big run and yesterday began to bounce. We might see more significant gain opportunities from EAPH if it can hold support above the .008-level.


Extended Watchlist:
ARIA, NIHD, PBMD, ARQL, KONE, EFUT

TSLA, PLUG, ETRM, OMED & Extended Watchlist

Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA – Options
Back on November 29th, we were noticing that conditions on the TSLA chart had been exhibiting signs of a coming uptrend, and as a result, we presented a few options trading ideas that we felt had a reasonable chance of success. In particular, the 12/21 $120 Calls, and the 12/27 $130 Calls. We were rewarded for our interest, as the stock did indeed find its legs and begin to run following that report.

Since then we’ve seen some major moves out of those contracts, as the $120 Calls ended up trading from a low of 8.40, all the way up to yesterday’s closing price of 25.46, a monstrous 203% gain. The $130 Calls saw their low at 5.03, and ended up closing at 17.07. That was good for an even larger 239% rip.

Chartwise, it appears as if resistance is sitting at $145.65, $151, and the 50DMA of $159.45, and there is a gap on the chart to fill from $160-176, so a push past those key resistance points could lead to more pronounced increases. We would continue to take advantage of the added gains on these contracts, and in the event of a sustained uptrend, would have to consider rolling our strike price up to higher level that we believe would still be pushed into the money.


Plug Power, Inc. PLUG

PLUG has been an old favorite of ours from last March when we caught it on our scanners coming off its 52-wk lows (.1155) and we’ve mentioned it on multiple occasions since that time. We’ve followed this play all the way up to current levels, which as a result of recent favorable reports on the company’s finances, have reached all the way up to this morning’s pre-market high of 1.41. That represents an increase of 1121% off of lows following our initial alert.

We’ll be continuing to monitor PLUG closely, and will certainly want to take part in today’s conference call/webcast in which the CEO will address the reasoning behind his statement that the company is on pace for a “blowout quarter.”, as well as other issues.

LATHAM, N.Y., Dec 04, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE via COMTEX) — Plug Power Inc. (Nasdaq:PLUG), a leader in providing clean, reliable energy solutions, will today host a conference call and webcast during which CEO Andy Marsh will provide a business update for Plug Power and the Company’s expectations for the remainder of 2013 and for 2014.Since the October 8 business update call, the Company has seen an additional 17.8M USD in bookings.

EnteroMedics, Inc. ETRM

ETRM was part of yesterday’s Extended Watchlist, and the stock went on to put up quite a performance. After touching a low of 1.48 shortly before 10:30am, ETRM would spend the rest of the day pressing upward to its high of day and closing price at 2.24. This marks an impressive intraday run of 51% on nearly 20x its 3mo. average volume.

We’ll certainly want to keep an eye on a stock with current momentum of this magnitude.


OncoMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. OMED

Another winner from yesterday’s Extended Watchlist, OMED traded in a range from 22.10-31.99, which marks an intraday move of 45% Quite an impressive feat for a big-board stock in this price range.

Congrats to anyone who caught this, or any of the opportunities for significant profits afforded by the excellent calls in yesterday’s report.

DUSS, ILST, TSLA, AAPL, ATRM & Extended Watchlist

Dussault Apparel, Inc.  DUSS

On Tuesday, DUSS released an 8K containing information regarding its pending acquisition of a gold mining property. This adds substance to this very cheaply-priced stock, and with Wednesday’s session seeing a high of .0011 on more than 10X its 3mo. average volume, now is a good time to start monitoring this stock.

The last significant spike on the DUSS chart took it as high as .0015, so a return to those levels from here could facilitate gains in excess of 50% or more. We’d like to see support continue to hold at .0006-.0007 in order for us to remain interested.


International Star, Inc.  ILST

We are introducing a new momentum play in ILST today. Like DUSS, ILST represents a company that has just shifted its business toward the mining sector.  Wednesday, the stock woke from a slumber, and moved from a low of .001 to as much as .0034 on record volume.

The company is currently working toward getting their claim prepared for production. The Van Deemen Mine property consists of five un-patented claims totaling approx. 100 acres, and an additional 18 un-patented lode claims in the surrounding area. As with any junior mining project, the road to production can be a long one, so there’s no sense of urgency here. But at its current price level and at this stage of the story, we thought it would be a good time to put ILST on the radar, and begin following its journey.


Tesla Motors, Inc. TSLA – Options Ideas

Turning our attention to options trading, we are taking a look at TSLA. With the current conditions on the chart appearing favorable for an uptrend, we are looking at 12/21 $120 Call, which last traded at 11.35, and 12/27 $130 calls, last traded at 6.35.

As you can see on the included chart, conditions appear to be gearing up nicely for a possible surge in PPS.


Apple, Inc. AAPL – Options

AAPL is another candidate to provide us with some good options-trading opportunities based on current conditions. AAPL weekly Calls could provide a nice day-trading opportunity today that could yield fast profits. We want to radar the 550, 555 and 560 calls, because all week long, AAPL has been making huge gains and the weekly Calls have made multi-bag gains.

If today’s action can repeat the activity we saw earlier in the week, we could be looking at some sizable gains from these Calls. AAPL $550 calls closed at .80, $555’s closed at .30, and the $560’s were at .12. It’s always safer to play closer to the money with your strike price, so we’re keeping that in mind. If AAPL can’t make its way past $555, the $560’s may not make the same kind of moves that expect from the $550’s and $555’s.


Aetrium, Inc. ATRM

We’ve been talking about ATRM since last Friday, and highlighted it once again on Monday. It would pull back early in the week, and then on Wednesday we got the move we were looking for. From Tuesday’s low of 4.19, the stock would hit a high of 12.40, marking a possible gain of up to 196% for anyone who loaded up on the dip.
