Tuesday’s Recaps, Today’s Fresh Ideas

Recap For Tuesday Plays:

While the markets certainly pulled a head fake yesterday, stair-stepping down for the majority of the session after an early morning gap-up, we still managed to see some marginal gain opportunities in the daily options ideas we put in yesterday’s premarket report. While the gain chances in the SPY and others were slightly muted compared to what we usually achieve, our FLNC Calls clearly stole the show with an excellent multibag performance.

Our specific areas of interest for Tuesday were the SPY 12/13 $407-410 Calls, the ORCL Weekly $82.50-85 Calls, the CNM Weekly $22.50 Calls, and the FLNC Weekly $17.50 Calls. The rundown of the moves they and the total possible profits associated with those, were as follows:

Markets Rip on Monday:

We were a little light on options activity with one of the two ideas we signaled in yesterday’s report, but fortunately for us, the day was marked by a sizable surge in the markets.

Massive Options Movers & More

Enormous Options Gainers:

We took advantage of the SPY with supreme accuracy yesterday. In the early morning, it appeared as if futures would rise, but that was curtailed by some poor economic reports shortly before we sent out our newsletters. We flipped over to the bearish side of things for a fresh target and with the help of a deleterious session for the markets in general, it turned out to be the exact right choice.

We were tracking those SPY 09/14 $406-404 Puts, as well as the CNM Weekly $25 Calls, and witnessed huge intraday gains in both cases. We also have an update on a longer-term play from last week, when we called the GTLB 09/16 $50 Calls on Tuesday morning. Those subsequently posted multibag opportunity as well. All in all, we’ve offered up ideas that have absolutely performed as well or better than one could’ve hoped.

SPY 09/14 $406-404 Puts
$406: 
4.51-14.00 (+210%)
$405: 3.90-13.00 (+233%)
$404: 3.36-12.00 (+257%)

CNM Weekly $25 Calls
$25: .05-.85 (+1600%)

GTLB 09/16 $50 Calls
