Options Review:
This morning, we’re swinging back around to the fresh options ideas we offered up in Wednesday morning’s premarket report. With the markets getting choppy over the tech selloff, not to mention the US airstrikes in Syria, our timing in going bearish on SQ and TJX was fortuitous.
Our specific short targets were the SQ Weekly $250-245 Puts and the TJX Weekly $69.50-68 Puts, and in both cases, we turned up multibag upswings to finish out another solid trading week. Here were the ranges and total possible gains on those contracts subsequent to Wednesday’s alerts:
SQ Weekly $250-245 Puts
$250: 7.54-26.01 (+245%)
$247.50: 5.95-22.00 (+270%)
$245: 4.45-20.58 (+362%)

TJX Weekly $69.50-68 Puts
$69.50: .50-3.75 (+650%)
$69: .37-2.72 (+635%)
$68.50: .45-1.95 (+333%)
$68: .21-3.74 (+1680%)

*Please do not attempt to trade options with a weekly expiration on Friday unless you are an advanced level trader with access to disposable funds!
EHang Holdings Ltd. EH
We also want to quickly throw up a signal on an interesting Chinese Aerospace & Defense play, EH, which looks attractive from a technical standpoint.
The stock has been feeling out a bottom after consolidating off of an epic run, and could go into recovery relatively soon. Provided EH can hold at or above the $30-40 range on any further pullbacks, we would like it for a possible swing trade candidate.
