Major Options Movers, New Ideas

Options Recaps:

We got things right back on track with regard to the options ideas that we formulated for yesterday morning’s premarket report. We put forth a group of three earnings plays and the activity we subsequently observed was nothing to sneeze at, with all three returning opportunities for multibag intraday gains. That included a really nice 950 percenter!

Our specific areas of interest for the session were the CHWY Weekly $37.50-36.50 Puts, the ACN Weekly $262.50-265 Calls, and the GIS 04/21 $82.50 Calls, which provided the following moves and intraday profit chances, as well as more incredible new highs in the ONON 04/21 $25-27.50 Calls we’ve been tracking since Tuesday:

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%)

Fresh Options Ideas:
JBL Weekly $60-65 Calls
ACN Weekly $405-415 Calls


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.

DryShips, Inc. DRYS – Update

We wanted to start things off this morning by providing an update and some reactive commentary on DRYS, whose massive surge from early this week was stopped in its tracks yesterday.

After the mammoth run we tracked it over from 13.60 on Monday to Tuesday’s high of 102.00 (+650%), the stock was halted, and only resumed trading yesterday. What followed was a massive selloff that we did caution would be forthcoming in Wednesday’s report, stating that we’d want to be ready to take advantage of a potential dip-and-rip when that occurred.

That’s why we wanted to remind our readers of the situation today, and put the stock on bottom-watch. Rebounds are often proportional to the surges that preceded them, and if that holds true here, the bounce on DRYS when it reverses could be significant.


Solaris Power Cells, Inc. SPCL

Next up is SPCL, which we began watching for a bottom on Tuesday, and after realizing that bottom the following session, the stock has made quite a respectable move. It traded in a range from it’s low of .0041 on Wednesday, to a new high of .0098 yesterday.

That worked out to a two-day swing of 139% We’ll continue to monitor this play, and will look for the registering of higher lows and a breach from subpenny into penny territory.


Amazon.com, Inc. AMZN – Options Idea

We’re taking a look at Amazon this morning for a possible options play. The stock has been building a nice head of steam over the past few sessions, and appears to want to continue that trend today. To take advantage in the event of a continued uptrend, we’ll signal a range of options contracts, the AMZN Weekly $757.50-762.50 Calls.

*Please remember that highly-experienced options traders are the only people who should ever attempt to trade weekly expiring options on a Friday.
