Friday’s Big Winners, Fresh Plays to Start the Week

Friday Runners Recap: 

We closed out the short trading week on Friday in high spirits, after our morning options trading ideas bore an incredible amount of fruit. We had only signaled interest in tracking two potential sets of targets, but that was more than enough of a selection to see some serious intraday gain opportunities.

We were zeroed in on the SQ Weekly $77-79 Calls, and the BYND Weekly $18-19 Calls, and were very impressed with the intraday movement in every single contract set. We went six-for-six on the day with the lowest upswing coming in at 300% and the highest topping 800% Just the sort of finish to a week that we love to have, and here are the performance figures they posted on the day:

SQ Weekly $77-79 Calls
$77:
 .20-1.05 (+425%)
$78: .11-.50 (+354%)
$79: .06-.24 (+300%)

$18: .90-4.55 (+405%)

Good Start to the Trading Week, New Plays

Solid Start to the Week: 

We got off on a good foot for Monday’s premarket report, despite a real lack of big name earnings reporters. The only two potential plays that really jumped out to us yesterday did, however, post some nice double bag moves for us on the session.

We had signaled our interest in tracking the ARLP 02/17 $22.50-25 Calls, and the GEHC Weekly $70-68.50 Puts, and we got some very nice movement from each set of ideas on the day. Today’s earnings plays deal with some much bigger names, so our week should continue along an interesting trajectory. Here’s the breakdown of the gains that were possible through yesterday’s targets:

ARLP 02/17 $22.50-25 Calls
$28:
 .48-1.05 (+119%)
