MASTER OT J013347.25+302653.3 - CV in our Galaxy or Nova in M33

MASTER-IAC auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 01h 33m 47.25s +30d 26m 53.3s on 2015-12-14.03184 UT. The coordinate error is about 1.5 arcsec. The OT unfiltered magnitude is 16.8m (limit 20.4m). The OT is seen in 3 images. There is no minor planet at this place. We have reference image without OT on 2015-11-16.03198 UT with unfiltered magnitude limit 20.5m.

There is Star in Catalogue of variable point sources in M33 at RA, DEC = 01 33 47.25 +30 26 54.7 inside our error box with magnitude R ~ 23.

Spectral observations are required.

We reobserved this object at MASTER-Tunka on 2015-12-14.6554 with unfiltered magnitude 19.2 (limit = 20.2)

MASTER OT J005058.67-020914.0 - ?

MASTER-IAC auto-detection system discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 00h 50m 58.67s -02d 09m 14.0s on 2015-12-13.98775 UT. The OT unfiltered magnitude is 19.2m (limit 19.7m). The OT is seen in 3 images. There is no minor planet at this place. There is no object in any catalogue.

We have reference image without OT on 2015-10-13.09312 UT with unfiltered magnitude limit 20.6m.

Follow up observations are required.
