Recapping Runners, Fresh Ideas

VZIO Options Produce Instant Results:

Despite the fact that our three options ideas in yesterday’s premarket report were geared toward being longer-term plays to monitor over the next few weeks, in the case of VZIO, we witnessed prompt results as the daily activity provided for a very respectable intraday move for our tracked contracts.

Those were the VZIO 01/21 $19-20 Calls, which produced the following moves on our first day of observation. We will of course continue to monitor it and the other January Calls we signaled yesterday morning.

VZIO 01/21 $19-20 Calls
$19: .88-1.35 (+53%)
$20: .70-.90 (+29%)

Icoa, Inc. ICOA – Recap:

We also wanted to provide a brief update on ICOA, which is a stock that we included in our watchlist on Tuesday morning. In that two-session span, it has recorded a solid upswing, trading from a low of .0073 on Tuesday, and reaching as high as .0133 yesterday.

That works out to an overall increase of 82% and with the signs of momentum buildup in this play over the last several sessions, we’re going to want to continue to keep an eye peeled as we head into the end of the week.

Closing Out Another Excellent Trading Week

Solid Options Sweep: 

We posted another clean sweep on options ideas in yesterday’s premarket report, offering up a pair of fresh ideas, and knocking them both out of the park with multi-bag gain opportunities on the day!

We were specifically targeting the DRI 10/15 $155-160 Calls and the ACN Weekly $337.50-342.50 Calls,  on the heels of the companies’ earnings reports. Despite being in a relative down-period for earnings reporters, we have been able to work with what we’ve got.

Here are the total possible intraday gains that were on the table for those ideas yesterday:

DRI 10/15 $155-160 Calls
$155: 5.00-10.22 (+104%)
$160: 1.85-6.70 (+262%)
_____

ACN Weekly $337.50-342.50 Calls
$337.50: 2.63-7.30 (+178%)
$340: 1.40-5.40 (+286%)
$342.50: .90-3.00 (+233%)


Eargo, Inc. EAR – Bottom Watch: 

We’re also looking at a possible long term recovery play in EAR, which got severely beaten up yesterday with a major gap-down. It may end up being a decent bottom play for the stock itself but we’re going to signal a longer-term options idea to track as well, in the EAR 11/19 $7.50-10 Calls.


Fresh Options Ideas: 
NKE Weekly $155-152.50 Puts*
COST Weekly $452.50-457.50 Calls*
SKX Weekly $48-46 Puts*

*Do not attempt to trade options contracts on their day of expiration unless you are an advanced level trader with access to disposable funds

Final 09/22 SPY Calls Review:

As we were just mentioning yesterday morning, our tag of the SPY 09/22 $436-438 Calls in Tuesday’s premarket report, provided us with some very nice opportunities. We reported Tuesday’s gains on these contracts that expired yesterday afternoon, and cautioned that they could very well register new highs before the end of the day. That’s precisely what occurred, as the S&P made sharp advances right from the opening bell.

Slightly larger gains could have been available intraday if you *only* caught yesterday’s report, but the following figures represent the largest possible gains for those who may have taken an interest on the previous morning of our initial alert:

SPY 09/22 $436-438 Calls
$436: 1.51-4.18 (+177%)
$437: 1.15-3.25 (+183%)
$438: .84-2.42 (+188%)
