COIN Puts Blast Off & More

Options Review: 

It was a mixed bag sort of a day for the markets yesterday, as everything traveled up in the morning and came down in the afternoon. We had options ideas on both side of the tracks which managed to produce some very nice intraday gain opportunities for us. Typically we try to select targets that we feel have a solid chance of providing the kind of volatility needed to facilitate big moves in a short time frame, and that’s why we usually stick to companies that have untraded-upon earnings.

Our earnings plays that rattled off big moves yesterday were the EA Weekly $111-113 Calls and the COIN Weekly $65-55 Puts. In the case of the COIN targets. based on this morning’s premarket activity we would expect to see even more of an increase today over the figures you’ll see below from yesterday’s session:

EA Weekly $111-113 Calls
$111: 4.60-13.65 (+197%)
$112: 3.80-13.75 (+262%)
$113: 5.70-12.25 (+115%)

SPY Gains, Longer-Term Plays on the Move

SPY Gains, Longer-Term Plays Popping: 

In terms of our options trading ideas from yesterday morning’s premarket report, we saw rather unimpressive performances from a couple of our ideas. However, our laser-like accuracy in dealing with the SPY continued in spades with the SPY 05/11 $402-404 Calls, so we’ve got the figures on those for you this morning.

We will also circle back around to a couple of the longer-term sets of ideas we made last week which have made some very impressive moves for us so far, and don’t expire until the end of next week. We signaled possible plays in the EL 05/20 $250-230 Puts and the FTNT 05/20 $290-310 Calls on Tuesday and Thursday, respectively, and each of them has produced major moves, which were as follows:

SPY 05/11 $402-404 Calls
$402: 1.64-4.81 (+193%)
$403: 1.40-4.25 (+204%)
$404: 1.20-3.75 (+213%)

Another Clean Sweep on Options Targets

Options Winners Across the Board: 

We really started off this trading week with a bang in yesterday morning’s premarket report. We swept the board with respect to our fresh options trading ideas for the day, as is fairly typical around here. We strive to show our readers multiple profit-generating opportunities on a daily basis, and it’s always nice when we can hit that objective without any stumbles.

Our targeted sets of contracts were the SPY 05/09 $408-405 Puts, the TSN Weekly $90-92.50 Calls, the PLTR Weekly $9-8 Puts, and the BNTX Weekly $136-139 Call, with those SPY Puts being the top runners out of the bunch, thanks to a drooping day for the markets at large.
