Getting Back on Track for a Fresh Trading Week

New Options Highs: 

First thing’s first, to start off this fresh trading week we’d like to apologize for the lack of a newsletter on Friday morning. We have only missed a couple of trading days in our entire history, and this time a power outage at our offices prevented us from doing our normal work, but we’re back in the saddle fully powered up and ready for another solid week of stock and options speculation!

So what we’re going to do before we hop right back on track, is go over the new highs that our options ideas from Wednesday morning registered to close things out on Friday, and then we’ll jump in with some fresh options ideas for today. As you can see in Wednesday’s report, we were tracking the YY Weekly $29-32 Calls, the BABA Weekly $85-90 Calls, and the DKNG 06/17 $20 Calls.

With the exception of the YY $29’s, we got new highs in all of these plays on Friday, so these figures represent the total possible gains in a two-day swing in these targets: 

YY Weekly $29-32 Calls
$30: 3.02-12.05 (+299%)

Market Surge Leads to More SPY Opportunities

Options Movers: 

Our options ideas for yesterday’s session included a range of SPY calls which expire at the end of trading today, and thanks to a huge surge in the markets, not only did those turn out excellent chances for gain yesterday, but given the tenor of things here in the premarket, all the figures you see below for the SPY will make a huge jump today, especially if the Fed’s rate decision comes back as expected this afternoon. Continue reading down the page to find our rolled-up targets for the SPY today.

In addition to the SPY 03/16 $418-420 Calls, we were also tracking the GTLB Weekly $30-40 Calls, and while the $30’s didn’t bear fruit, we did get some nice moves out of the $35’s and $40’s. The moves in those plays were as follows below:

SPY 03/16 $418-420 Calls
$418: 4.61-9.46 (+105%)
$419: 4.06-8.60 (+112%)
