Despite an overall lag in the markets yesterday, due in part to the Greek financial crisis, KBLB did manage a brief surge right out of the starting gate. We tagged it for its attractiveness with regard to its positioning on the chart as well as the interesting news that was released; the company claims to have synthesized a material which is stronger than spider silk.

The stock traded in a range from its opening price of .0365 up to a high of .05 inside of the first ten minutes, which marked a 37% rip.
While KBLB failed to maintain that early increase, the nature of yesterday’s news alone will cause us to reserve a spot on our watchlist for this play. If the company has indeed developed a super-material as they’ve described, it could ultimately be a game-changer in everything from the medical field, to space exploration, and nanotechnology.

New Options Ideas
There’s a fair amount of uncertainty with respect to how the markets will react to the ongoing fiscal turmoil in Greece. They appear to want to rebound this morning, but it could be a false positive. It leads us to a familiar scenario, where uncertain conditions open avenues of opportunity to intuitive traders.
What we’re going to do is sit on the fence and observe SPY 205.50-207 Puts and Calls to start out with, and decide where the action will be once the overall market sentiment has been firmly established. It’s a strategy that’s served us well in the past.

We’re also going to be monitoring JUNO $60-$63.50 Calls as the stock is gapping up heavily in the premarket.
