Recapping Friday’s Options Ideas

We made it a point to pass along a handful of quick-strike options ideas on Friday. We mentioned the high-risk, high-reward nature of trading weekly contracts on a Friday, and we certainly were rewarded as every single idea we formulated bore fruit, to varying degrees.

Here’s a breakdown of the prime possibilities for profit that we observed:

Netflix, Inc. NFLX – The rather broad range we provided for NFLX were Weekly $595-612.50 Calls, and every set of contracts in that range made highly impressive moves:

$595 Calls – Daily Range: 6.58-23.00 – Max Gain: 250%
$597.50 Calls – Daily Range: 5.30-20.67 – Max Gain: 290%
$600 Calls – Daily Range: 3.63-18.02 – Max Gain: 396%
$602.50 Calls – Daily Range: 2.80-15.45 – Max Gain: 452%
$605 Calls – Daily Range: 1.10-12.82 – Max Gain: 1065%
$607.50 Calls – Daily Range: 1.00-10.62  – Max Gain: 962%
$610 Calls – Daily Range: .80-8.17 – Max Gain: 921%
$612.50 Calls – Daily Range: .53-5.54 – Max Gain: 945%

____

Apple, Inc. AAPL – Our idea for AAPL was the Weekly $128 and $129 Calls, and a relatively volatile outing brought several significant swing-trade opportunities in each:

$128 Calls started out by first trading from an early low of 1.06 to 1.58 (+49%). It then pulled back to find support at .53 before taking off again to hit .99 (+86%). That swing was followed another ranging from .43-.92 (114%), and then by a final dip to .53 and run back to .81 (+53).

$129 Calls traded with similar action; four distinct swings of  53%, 134%, 167% and 300% occurred during the session.
____

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR – The PBR Weekly $10 Calls that we tagged for observation made a monster move from .03-.20, yielding the chance at gains of up to 566%

The stock is gapping up in the premarket today, so we’re going to continue keep our eyes on PBR. Our interest to start out the week will be in the Weekly $10 and 10.50 Calls for potential daytrade swing-trade opportunities.

Huge congratulations go out to any of our followers that were able to bank some hefty gains off of Friday’s excellent options ideas!

Pazoo, Inc. PZOO

We’re touching base with PZOO this morning to update our readers on what the stock has been up to lately. Many of you will recall the monumental April this stock had; we initiated coverage on April 1st, and PZOO essentially spent the entire month on an uptrend. The total range we observed over the course of the month went from .0049 to .0204, which amounted to an epic 316% swing.

We put the stock on the back burner this month as it consolidated off of those impressive highs, and we want to rehash our interest in this play now that it appears to be headed toward its next leg-up. We’d also suggest that folks check out the PR released by the company on Friday, which alludes to its partner’s ribbon-cutting on the Nevada medical marijuana testing facility that we’ve been anticipating.

We’ve prepared a video outlining the key aspects of the PZOO Chart:

MagneGas Corp. MNGA

We also want to pat ourselves on the back for a timely call of MNGA on Friday. We caught the news release highlighting the company’s contract with the US Navy, and it was enough to send the stock on a respectable intraday rip.

MNGA traded in a daily range from 1.08-1.48, which represented a healthy increase of 37% The move occurred on over 17X the 3-month average trading volume, and the stock closed just under the high of day, so we’ll be interested to see how the action unfolds as we kick off a new trading week today.

Fresh Options Ideas

As we head into the end of another excitement-filled week, we’ve zeroed in on some options ideas for daytrading that could yield positive results. Friday is always an interesting time to trade weekly options; premiums are lowered significantly due to time decay, creating just the kind of high-risk, high-reward environment for which we are always on the lookout.

We have extensively used the options chains of all of the following high-profile stocks to bank enormous gains in the past (PBR Archive, AAPL Archive, NFLX Archive):

Netflix, Inc. NFLX – When we last touched upon NFLX the stock was trading in the high-$300 to $400 range, and since then it has made a monstrous move to its current base in the high-$500’s.

The stock appears to want to gap up this morning into the $600+ range; we’re going to be on the lookout for a dip-and-rip scenario, and as usual, we’ll provide a range where we think the heaviest action will fall- in this case we’re going to monitor NFLX Weekly $595-612.50 Calls.

Strategies may require adjustment on-the-fly as trading kicks off; we’ll start off with in-the-money calls, keeping in mind that we’ll need to roll up our strike prices, should the stock continue to run.

____

Apple, Inc. AAPL – It’s been some time since we ventured into Apple territory. To close out the week, we’re going to be monitoring the Weekly $128 and $129 Calls for potential quick-strike opportunities.

____

Petroleo Brasiliero S.A. (Petrobras) PBR – This old-time favorite has been on a steady incline since March, and recently has been flirting with the $10-level. That has made the PBR Weekly $10 Calls good for intraday flips all week long, and we wouldn’t be surprised if the same were true today. We’ll need to see the stock hold support at or above 9.85 on any pullbacks in order to remain interested.

MagneGas Corp. MNGA

We want to keep a sharp watch over MNGA which is gapping up on the heels of this morning’s big announcement of a contract with a branch of the US Military.

The company also launched a new website earlier this week that you can check out here: www.magnegas.com

Banro Corp. BAA

We also want to quickly pat ourselves on the back for the timely tag of BAA that we placed in yesterday’s extended watchlist. It was the first time the stock has appeared in our reports in almost a year, and it produced the chance for a nice intraday gain.

From an early low of .2991, BAA traded up to a high of .353, a respectable 18% jump. We’ll keep our eyes on this one into next week.

Netflix, Inc. NFLX – Options

We’ve been hot on the trail of the NFLX options chain beginning on Wednesday of last week, and have had an incredible opportunity to make some astonishing gains in the process.

The specific contracts we cited as having intraweek flip potential were the $395 and $410 Calls, and the upper limits of each were once again pushed on Friday.

The $395 Calls in which we observed a low of 12.18 on Thursday, entered a new high into the books as they ran to 43.70, and pushed the total increase we’ve witnessed in just a few sessions to a highly respectable 259%

The $410 Calls, following our alert on Thursday registered one of the best single session moves we can remember since we first began to include options ideas in our daily reports (Nearly 700%). Those contracts, which of course we witnessed at a low of 2.44 just one session prior, continued to explode and set new high of 28.90. That marks an intraweek move of 1084%, so you’ll certainly understand why we want to pat ourselves on the back for an awesome call!

With our first thousand-percent gainer of the year officially on the books, it’s safe to say that we’re setting the bar high for 2015!

GoPro, Inc. GPRO – Options

On the same morning that we first highlighted the NFLX Calls, we also tagged GRPO Calls. We specifically marked the $48 and $49 Calls and witnessed monumental moves out of each over the course of the week as GPRO topped the $53-dollar mark on Friday.

We’re going to continue to monitor GPRO this week on the heels of Friday’s PR which is one source of the huge move on the chart. GoPro announced a partnership with the NHL that will allow in-game footage from player-worn cameras to be piped into broadcasts.

NEW YORK and TORONTO, Jan. 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — The National Hockey League (NHL) and the National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA) today announced a North American partnership with GoPro >> FULL PR


SITO Mobile Ltd.  SITO

In addition to our great options alerts, we were not without success in the penny-stock arena. We spent most of last week tracking SITO to some impressive gains, and it too continued to push the envelope on Friday.

If you recall, our observed low on this play was following Wednesday morning’s alert when the stock briefly touched a low of .1489. During Friday’s session SITO would stretch as high as .318.

That represents a overall spike of 114% in just a three-session span, so congratulations to all who took part!
