Bucking the Trend with Options

Big Time Options Success: 

Despite the markets sliding over the Russia-Ukraine conflict anxieties, we managed to round up a fair few options winners in our premarket report yesterday morning. Only one longer term idea failed to instantly materialize, with all of our quick strike options plays posting solid gains on the day.

Not only do we have updates on those targets, but we also have a recap of our idea on PBR in Tuesday’s report, so the figures we have to present here are from the TJX Weekly $65-63 Puts, the PANW Weekly $495-505 Calls, the LOW Weekly $217.50-222.50 Calls, the OSTK Weekly $41-44 Calls, and the PBR Weekly $14-15 Calls.

Here are the moves posted and the total possible gains for traders who were in the mix:
