4-Pack of Fresh Options Plays

Options Recaps:

Another day, another set of winning options ideas! We stick to this pattern because it produces results, and like usual, we put together some ideas for yesterday morning’s premarket report that enjoyed solid intraday performances.

The two sets of targets that turned in winning cards on the day were the SPY 12/06 $453-454 Calls, and the SAIC Weekly $85-90 Calls. The gains in the SAIC chain didn’t astonish, but they were very respectable, while the SPY calls ripped for big multibag gains. All in all, our targets provided plenty of opportunity for traders to bank quick intraday profits.

$454: 2.27-6.78 (+199%)

Despite a really tough day of selling off for the markets as a whole, we still fared pretty well with our fresh ideas in yesterday morning’s premarket report.

Susglobal Energy Corp. (OTCQB:SNRG) – Update:

As we were just mentioning, the markets took a real beating yesterday, but despite that fact, SNRG recorded a respectable intraday move running 33% from .21-.28 on the day. It also registered the third biggest volume day since we began tracking it at the beginning of last month. This came just a day after the company was featured in a write-up posted to USA TODAY’s website, as we mentioned in Tuesday morning’s premarket report.

As you can see on the chart below, SNRG has been steadily building higher base levels of support over the last several weeks and indicators seem to suggest that the days and weeks ahead could get very interesting. Stay tuned for more updates as they become necessary.

Options Ideas – Form-4 Plays:

We do typically like to stick with options plays that coincide with big name earnings reporters, but we always like to scan for Form-4’s (insider transactions) and formulate ideas in those instances where we like the chart setup.

We’ve got a couple of potential targets which fit that bill with huge amounts of shares being soaked up in ASAN last week, and a large $10M block being purchased in PFSI yesterday. These transactions give us at least a reasonable confidence that those involved believe that the future looks brighter than the present.

ASAN 01/21 $110-120 Calls
PFSI 12/17 $65 Calls

Options Ideas – Earnings Plays:

Of course we don’t want to leave out our bread and butter, so we’ve also taken a look at what the earnings calendar has to offer this morning.

Build-A-Bear and Ambarella are a couple in that category that our catching our eye today, so we’ll hash up some ideas for those as well:

BBW 12/17 $17.50 Calls
AMBA Weekly $197.50-207.50 Calls
