Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Winning Options Calls & More

Yesterday’s Winning Options Ideas

We signaled our interest in a range of contracts from three separate options chains yesterday morning, and unsurprisingly, the potential for quick-strike single-session gains was present in all three.

Apple, Inc. AAPL – Our AAPL idea was definitely the most solid of the day, with our highlighted Weekly $98-99 Calls each making an appreciable intraday spike:

$98 Calls – Trading Range: .78-1.92 – Max Gain: 146%
$98.50 Calls – Trading Range: .55-1.51 – Max Gain: 175%
$99 Calls– Trading Range: .36-1.15 – Max Gain: 219%

The extended-term play we targeted also made a big move. The AAPL 07/17 $101 Calls traded in a range from .79-1.37, for a nice 73% rip. We’ll want to continue tracking this set of contracts in sessions to come, with plenty of time before their expiration.

SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) – Next up were the SPY Weekly $208-210 Calls, which we were pretty sure would produce some decent action based purely on the overall market sentiment we were observing leading up to our submission of the idea. Our assumption proved to be spot-on, and we observed some excellent moves during the session:

$208 Calls – Trading Range: 1.13-1.97 – Max Gain: 74%
$208.50 Calls – Trading Range: .81-1.56 – Max Gain: 93%
$209 Calls– Trading Range: .55-1.19 – Max Gain: 116%
$209.50 Calls– Trading Range: .33-.86 – Max Gain: 161%
$210 Calls– Trading Range: .20-.60 – Max Gain: 200%

_____

Computer Sciences Corp. CSC – As a bonus idea we called attention to the CSC 06/17 $44-48 Calls and while a couple of the contracts contained in that range failed to trade any notable volume, respectable gains were still there for the taking in the other three:

$45 Calls– Trading Range: 3.20-5.05 – Max Gain: 58%
$47 Calls– Trading Range: 1.65-2.75 – Max Gain: 66%
$48 Calls– Trading Range: 1.25-3.48 – Max Gain: 178%

This is why we love options trading. Out of thirteen sets of contracts we slated for tracking, having eleven produce the opportunity for big gains, and seven of those produce chances at gains of more than 100% is a perfect illustration of why we have not focused solely upon stocks for years now.

More Fresh Options Ideas: We’d like to follow up that recap with some new interests this morning, each with untraded-upon earnings beats to consider. We will be following the activity in Williams & Sonoma WSM Weekly $53-55 Calls as well as Dollar Tree, Inc DLTR Weekly $83-86 Calls.


Extended Watchlist:
ATLS, LOTE, SHLD, SYNC, ASX, RIXG, X

ICPA, BMSN & Today’s Extended Watchlist

ICPA traded as low as .033 on Monday, only to hit .056 yesterday, for a 70% intraweek gain.

Our first alert of ICPA in 2012 came on January 19th. The stock hit its .0008 52-wk low the following day.

This weeks 70% gainer sure was nice, however, someone fortunate enough to wait patiently from its ultimate low to this weeks high wouild have seen gains on the order of 6900%

Bio-Matrix Scientific Group, Inc. BMSN

BMSN held nearly all of yesterday’s gains, closing at .0104, gaining 89%, and earning us the number one slot from our friends over at Penny Stock Rumble.

From the looks of the chart, all indicators suggest this wild runner is not yet ready to be saddled.

Extended Watchlist:
VPER, HOKU, MSLP, X

SIRG, ECOB, EMWW & Today’s Extended Watchlist

Sierra Resource Group, Inc. SIRG

We mentioned SIRG back on April 19th at .0033, after which time the stock was trading as low as .0017. Yesterday we witnessed a high of .0135,  marking whopping gains from 300-694% in under a month’s time.

When the momentum tapers off, we have to expect a bit of a pullback; in our view, just another opportunity to play the bounce. In the past, when SIRG runs, as is the case with many astronomical gainers, there is a consolidation period that usually precedes further gains.

____

Eco Building Products, Inc. ECOB

We are looking at ECOB this morning for a possible bottom-bounce momentum play. The chart is showing a hint of convergence on the MACD, with a cross in the works. We see a patch of major resistance at .10, which will be a huge hurdle for this play. We expect to see a pullback if the stock fails to breach the .10 mark, so we will want to remain vigilant.

Structural Enhancement Technologies Corp. EMWW

EMWW has made some nice moves for us in the past, and we wanted to bring it back to your attention this morning on the heels of a new press release out yesterday. Find the link below.

Extended Watchlist:

ENTB, AGIJ, ICPA, WGAS, BMSN, HOKU, VPER, X

VPER, IDVC, JNSH, EMWW & Today’s Extended Watchlist

Viper Networks, Inc. VPER

VPER had a big volume day on Tuesday, with over 188M shares traded (Approx. $820K in dollar volume). After gapping up, the stock ran into resistance at .0055, one of the key resistance points that we’ve pointed out in the past couple of video charts we’ve done outlining VPER.

The stock ended up closing down on the day at .0034 (its 50DMA). This stock has brought us gains of over 240% since we first discovered it. It is always important to lock in those porfits wherever possible, so we certainly hope others have found good fortune with VPER as well.

We’d like to see VPER hold over .0034, or things have a chance to get ugly.

The company had news out this morning:

DETROIT, May 30, 2012 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) — Viper Networks, Inc. (Pink Sheets:VPER), is pleased to provide additional information regarding recently announced corporate developments, and how the Company is building a foundation for greater success and profitability through sector diversity in attractive growth markets.

All in all, this play has more than done its part, and will now be moved to our back burner.

____

Infrastructure Developments Corp. IDVC

We spotted IDVC over the weekend before mentioning it in yesterday’s extended watchlist, thinking it had some bounce-play opportunity.

The stock was as low as .0019, and hit a high of .0036 for a possible gain of around 90%

This is EXACTLY the reason why we stressed the importance of not only reading our picks for the day, but also looking through our extended watchlist. Winners are constantly cropping up from the bunch.

JNS Holdings Corporation JNSH

We are putting this new stock on watch for “Blue Sky” breakout mode, as all indicators seem to be pointing toward the bullish. The stock has recently reached highs not seen since the summer of 2010.

____

Structural Enhancement Technologies Corp. EMWW

Twice now we’ve timed this play for explosive gains, and are now observing the stock as it searches out a bottom. A bounce opportunity could be in the making, so we want to keep a pretty watchful eye on EMWW.

VPER | Viper Networks, Inc. & Today’s Extended Watchlist

Viper Networks, Inc. VPER

On Friday, we saw another hallmark performance from VPER. The stock broke through its 50DMA (.0034), touching .0045 before closing out the week at .0039. Since our first alert VPER traded as low as .0016; Friday’s close represents a gain of 144% (181% at the HOD).

We’ve been on this play since March 13th, and have only recently noticed some of the other newsletters hopping on our coattails.

We are looking at patches of resistance at .0056, .0065, and .0084.

DETROIT, May 29, 2012 (GlobeNewswire via COMTEX) — Viper Networks, Inc. (Pink Sheets:VPER), is pleased to announce that the Company has finalized agreement terms with Aequitas Energy, Inc. by contractually committing to acquire thirty percent (30%) of the energy reseller company based in New Haven, Connecticut.

Agreement terms call for Viper Networks to invest one million U.S. dollars. Total monies due Aequitas may be in two increments throughout the remainder of 2012, but are expected to be in two main $500,000 tranches within two specific time frames. >>FULL STORY

ATTENTION READERS: By now you’ve all realized that we have a habit of including what is called our “Extended Watchlist”, (or “E.W.” as we’ve come to call it around the office). It is a term we coined for the group of stocks that we are monitoring (whether passively or aggressively) on any given day. For those of you that have taken the time to notice, we have had many winners emerge from this daily pool of interesting plays. [Take for example, last week, our EW picks AAPT (79%) ACYD (32%), and ALGF (>80%)]. For those who haven’t, we’ve now provided you with a reason to read through our morning alerts in their entirety!

That said, take a look at today’s Extended Watchlist:
