Closing Out a Great Week with Strength

Thursday Options Recap:

We have been rolling right along on the options front this week, coming up with four sets of winning ideas in each of last three consecutive sessions. In our premarket report for Thursday morning, we provided readers with a varied set of potential targets to watch, and once again, all four yielded intraday gain opportunities. We are very proud to be able to come up with good ideas on a daily basis for our readers the vast majority of the time, and we certainly upheld that standard this week.

We were focused on the GIII 12/16 $17.50-15 Puts, the DG Weekly $245-240 Puts, the SPLK Weekly $83-85 Calls, and the SNPS Weekly $360-370 Calls. The markets as a whole experienced somewhat of a choppy session, but our items of interest produced the following intraday runs and profit chances:
