Solid Runners, Fresh Earnings Plays

Yesterday’s Midweek Movers: 

We got mixed results from yesterday morning’s fresh options ideas, with the BIDU Calls we were monitoring failing to catch a spark. However, we did see some intraday movement and gain opportunities out of the other ideas we were tracking, with a trio of runners all in the neighborhood of double-bag chances.

Our specific targets in those cases were the PANW Weekly $180-182.50 Calls, and the CSGP 03/17 $70-65 Puts, and the rundown of their activity on the day is as follows:

PANW Weekly $180-182.50 Calls
$180:
 3.90-9.00 (+130%)
$182.50: 3.60-6.85 (+90%)
_____

CSGP 03/17 $70-65 Puts
$70:
 .65-1.28 (+97%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
NVDA Weekly $225-230 Calls
EBAY Weekly $46.50-45.50 Puts
BABA Weekly $98-101 Calls
MRNA Weekly $155-152.50 Puts


Clean Vision Corp. CLNV – OTC Recap:

We also wanted to offer a quick review of the performance of CLNV following its inclusion in our premarket report from Tuesday morning. In the two sessions since, we’ve seen a solid run from .077 to .012, which works out to a respectable rise of 56%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: PHOT Recap, Options Review & More

Growlife, Inc. PHOT

Amid a troubled market when a lot of stocks are stagnating, or even worse, plummeting, we managed to catch onto a great idea in yesterday’s premarket report with PHOT. Granted that we hadn’t mentioned the stock since the end of October, the timing in bringing back to the table was impeccable.

As you can see on the intraday chart below, PHOT logged a morning low of a penny before ramping its way up a full 100% to a daily high of .02 by early afternoon. It traded in a tight channel for the remainder of the session and managed to maintain a vast majority of those gains into the close at .0195.

While its actions alone certainly qualify for putting PHOT on a continued momentum watch, we’d urge a strong note of caution due to the fact that it is currently garnering a grey listing and caveat emptor warning at OTC Markets.


Alphabet Inc. GOOG – Options Idea

Our options idea from yesterday’s report turned up some excellent quick-strike chances in the first half of the session. We tagged a wide swathe of contracts in the range of GOOG Weekly $780-800 Calls, and each of the eight included targets provided similar gain opportunities.

In the interest of time, we’ll just provide the intraday swings on the first and last contracts in the series. The $780 Calls ran from a low of 6.70 to a high of 15.45 (+131%) and the $800’s made a jump from 1.90-5.50 (+190%).

Again, similar profits could have been attained with any one of the contracts in our highlighted range. Cheers to anyone able to take advantage of those moves which were propelled by GOOG’s post-market earnings beat on Monday.

Added Note: Stay tuned for tomorrow’s report when we’ll be formulating some fresh ideas based off of one or more of the high profile earnings releases slated for post-market today (GPRO, GM, YUM, etc.)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: VBLT, PVSP Video Charts & More

We had a large wave of subscribers over the weekend, so before we get started, let us take this opportunity to welcome our new members! Be sure to catch our reports on time every morning within 20 minutes prior to the opening bell- in many cases it can be the early bird that gets gets the worm! 


Vascular Biogenics, Inc. VBLT

We first placed VBLT on our watchlist on March 25th, and on that day witnessed a moderate intraday move of 26% as the stock ran from 6.25 to 7.86.

That was followed by an extended period of consolidation which persisted throughout the month of April. Eventually the stock established support in the mid-$3.00 range early last month, and from there it has been quite the performer.

There was a massive move from 3.60-7.09 (+97%), followed by a dip back to 4.86 (05/20), and to end the short week on Friday, the stock touched a new high of 8.70, representing a 79% swing. That high has been surpassed in premarket trading this morning as the stock breached the $9-mark on word of some positive data from one of the company’s drug trials (Link below). We’ll continue to follow along with the action as we kick off this fresh trading week.

Here’s a video pointing out the characteristics of the current VBLT Chart:


Pervasip Corp. PVSP

PVSP was a thousand-percent-plus gainer for us earlier this year, and we want to return focus to the stock once again this morning.

Subsequent to our alert on January 20th, we watched as this play exploded from an absolute bottom of .0001 in February, all the way up to .003 at the end of April, an incredible 2900% span.

We’re looking at the stock once again this week as we noticed it recently coming down to find support at its 200DMA of .0006 (05/21), and since then it appears as if PVSP is gearing up for another potential upswing. It has been establishing higher lows, and could be ripe for another rip, so we’re keeping our eyes open.

We created a video chart for PVSP as well:


Oncothyreon, Inc. ONTY

We made mention of ONTY as a morning gapper in our report dated May 22nd, and from a low of 2.80 that day, the stock has made quite a bit of forward progress. It hit 3.66 (+31%) two sessions later, followed by only a slight pullback.

We’re watching this morning as the stock is gapping up once again, having already chancged hands for as much as 5.35. That represents a 91% increase from our observed low, and further draws our interest in following the action from here.


Auri, Inc. AURI

Despite a big pullback into the close, AURI did not disappoint in its early performance on Friday. From .0052 the stock surged as high as a penny before tapering off, registering an intraday swing of 92%

We won’t disregard the possibility of a bounceplay once the stock establishes firm support, so we’ll be on the lookout for that.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: KRFT Recap & More

Kraft Foods Group, Inc.  (KRFT)
In yesterday’s morning report we took note of the huge merger news concerning Kraft and Heinz, and stated our interest in using the resultant activity to our advantage. The dip-and-rip happened just as we predicted, and shortly after 10AM, it was off to the races for every single idea we put forth!

We mentioned our specific interest in KRFT April $75-85 Calls for intraday options trading possibilities, and were extremely pleased with the results.

The $75 Calls traded up from a low of 7.15 to hit a high of 12.30, an intraday gain of 72%  $80 Calls went on a monstrous run from 1.86-8.62, which equaled a 363% move, and the $85 Calls were the hottest ticket of all, running from a low of .30 all the way up to 4.72; a mega-rip of 1473%

It marked our second single-session, thousand-percent gainer in as many weeks, since we hit it big with ESPR Calls last Tuesday. We want to extend a hand of congratulations to anyone who was able to take advantage!


Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR

Last year around this time, we were making a killing off of PBR. We had caught it coming off of 10-year lows, and it enjoyed an epic rally lasting a period of many months where we were able to pick off large gains on countless occasions. A quick tag search of our archives on the stock will demonstrate just how often it brought us chances to make winning trades.

The last several months have been rocky for the state-controlled oil giant, as oil prices had been in free-fall while company officials were simultaneously wrapped up in a scandal, and it led to the lowest prices for PBR since 2003.

There appears to have been a rebound on the 13th of this month, so we thought now might be a good time to put PBR on our radar once again. Oil prices have been rebounding as well, so we’ll venture a couple of options ideas to keep an eye on moving forward.

We’re going to put a spotlight on PBR 05/01 $6 & 6.50 Calls which could provide significant opportunities if PBR can sustain this recovery off of its recently established lows.


Vascular Biogenics, Inc. VBLT

VBLT appeared in our reports for the first time yesterday, and it turned out to be a well-timed call. The stock traded in a daily range from 6.25-7.86, representing 26% intraday gain. Several of our chatroom members profited off of it, and we certainly hope some of our readers did as well!

Going ahead, we will use 6.25 as a baseline of support; in order for us to stay interested in VBLT we will want to see the PPS maintained above that level.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Big News for KRFT & More

Kraft (KRFT) to Merge With Heinz
In a move that will effectively create the third-biggest food company on the North American continent, it has been announced that Kraft Foods Group Inc. (KRFT) and H.J. Heinz Co. will merge. 3G Capital and Berkshire Hathaway, which bought Heinz for $23B and took it private back in 2013, will be orchestrating the deal.

As a result of this development, KRFT is gapping up monstrously in the premarket to the tune of more than 30% Generally when we see a stock soar on news like this, our first instinct is to continually scan for a dip-and-rip scenario once the session commences. When the rip does occur, we’re going to be looking to April $75-85 Calls for intraday options trading possibilities.

Kraft Foods, H.J. Heinz to Merge (Wed 8:18AM EDT)


Social Media Sector on Watch

Despite uncertainly over whether interest rates will be raised this year causing a general downturn in the markets, social media stocks appeared to be an exception yesterday.

We’re always looking for trends to exploit for options trading, and should Facebook, Inc. FB, Twitter, Inc. TWTR, and LinkedIn Corp. LNKD continue their hot hand this week, we could see some nice action in the following contracts:

FB Weekly $84-86 Calls
TWTR Weekly $50-52 Calls
LNKD Weekly $260-265 Calls


Vascular Biogenics, Inc. VBLT

VBLT is another gapper this morning that has surged in the premarket following the company Q4 earnings release. The stock briefly spiked to its 50DMA of 8.65 in early trading, and appears as if it will open in the 6.50’s.

We will look to see VBLT re-break the $7-mark once the session kicks off, as there is a large gap on the chart as we point out below, the filling of which would make for some highly notable gains. It’s definitely a stock we want to keep on our radar as we cruise through mid-week.
