We got things back on track in Tuesday morning’s premarket report, which contained a slate of three potential options plays for consideration, and we saw some pretty good intraday upswings in those targets.

4 Fresh Options Plays to Finish the Week

SPY Runners, Earnings Plays:

We played both sides of the fence on the SPY yesterday, signaling a strike range of both puts and calls in our premarket report. We only consider such a thing when the markets seem due for a choppy day, and we were certainly correct in assuming that would be the case. Thanks to a mixed session, we got just what we were looking for with the SPY Puts doing their thing in the morning, and the calls claiming the spotlight for the remainder of the day. Our pair of earnings plays also yielded results, giving us the third consecutive session of 100% accuracy on our ideas.

The specific targets we were zeroed in on were the SPY 03/11 $424-422 Puts, the SPY 03/11 $422-424 Calls, the JD Weekly $60-58 Puts, and the ASAN 03/18 $40-35 Puts.

Huge Stock Moves & More

Rite Aid Corp. RAD – Review

We were just talking about RAD in our premarket report from last Friday, and we wanted to close out this week by bring up the very respectable run it has produced.

As of the premarket high of 22.44 established in the premarket this morning, we’ve witnessed a one-week run of 85% from Rite Aid.

Other Updates

We also wanted to highlight some mega-moves made by stocks we’ve placed on watch recently, once again proving conclusively that options aren’t our only forte.

We tagged Clearside Biomedical, Inc. CLSD in our extended watchlist on October 18th, and witnessed a low of .75 the following day. The stock has been gradually ramping its way up in the several weeks since then, continually registering new highs, of which it hit 3.95 yesterday. That’s an incredible increase of 427%
____

We put Oncolytics Biotech, Inc. ONCY on watch back on November 14th, and have watched as the stock began to edge its way up, before absolutely exploding over the last week. Our observed range on this one in just over a month has been .82-2.92, a gain of 256%
____

Many of our longer term readers will remember how significant the gains were out of OWC Pharmaceutical Research Corp. OWCP as we first came across it at the end of 2016 when it went on a mega run from subpenny levels to over 2.00. When it appeared in yesterday’s watchlist it was time to start paying close attention to it again. OWCP made a 94% intraday move yesterday from a low of .028 to a high of .0543. Volume has been ramping up the last few sessions and with this type of momentum, we’ll definitely continue to keep an eye on it.
