Fresh Options Ideas:
There appears to be a lot going on this morning as we start off another trading week. We’re going to dive right into the action with a variety of fresh new ideas:
TSEM Weekly $18-20 Calls
BAH Weekly $65-75 Calls
GRUB Weekly $77.50-79 Calls
MYL Weekly $21-22.50 Calls
Tenet Healthcare Corp. THC
We began talking about THC on Wednesday morning, and tracking its options chain. Over the final three days of last week the stock made a major move on the chart, which facilitated eye popping options trading opportunities.
The stock itself ran from a low of 17.32 on Wednesday to 22.13 on Friday. That represents a three-day swing of 28% That move allowed one of our options targets, the $18 Calls, to make one of the largest percentage moves we’ve identified so far this year. From a low of .10, they soared to 3.59, which works out to a total possible gain of 3490% in a THREE DAY period!
