Big Start to the Week, Fresh Options Ideas

Solid Start to the Week:

Things got off to a good start for us yesterday, as we opened the books on another trading week. Things were a little slow on the earnings front, so there weren’t many things catching our eye, but the two sets of targets that we did generate for our premarket report did post rather impressive intraday performances. Today’s earnings calendar is much fuller, so we’ll have a wider selection of potential plays this morning.

We had signaled potential interest in the ZIM Weekly $16.50-15.50 Puts, and the GLBE 06/16 $35 Puts, and most of the intraday moves they recorded were good for multibag gains. We’ve also got an update on a set of calls we have been tracking since the morning of May 8th, the GTLB 05/26 $28 Calls, which have made quite a significant run as GTLB has been on a steady rise these past couple of weeks.

ZIM Weekly $16.50-15.50 Puts
$16.50: .50-2.03 (+306%)
$16: .50-1.60 (+220%)

Muted Start to the Week, Fresh Ideas

Monday’s Options Recap:

The markets got off to a rough start yesterday, and that did negatively impact the scope of our options success with the plays we were monitoring, especially considering they were targets January expirations. We may yet see those rise to the occasion, but for now, our one quick-strike idea from yesterday’s premarket report did make a significant intraday move.

The SPY typically provides a lot of good intraday volatility for us, and is quite often good for solid intraday gains when timed properly. Our actual targets for yesterday were the SPY 12/19 $383-384 Calls, and these were the largest intraday swings we witnessed:

SPY 12/19 $383-384 Calls
$383:
 .65-1.45 (+123%)
$384: .38-.90 (+137%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
GIS 01/20 $85-80 Puts
PLAY 01/20 $35-36 Calls
HEI 01/20 $150 Calls


OTC Recaps:

We had another couple of plays that performed well off of yesterday’s extended watchlist. Especially on slow days for options, monitoring these daily selections of mainly OTC stocks has often proved to be a good alternative use of our time.
