On December 2nd, we included a mention of INPX in our premarket report, and after searching out its bottom for roughly week following that report, the stock reversed and has been soaring ever since.

ANAB Options Heating Up

AnaptysBio Inc. ANAB – Update

Today we want to come back to update on the progress of a longer-term options idea we formulated a couple of weeks ago on the 11th. We mentioned that we were interested in tracking the ANAB 01/17 $10-15 Calls, and it has turned out to be an excellent idea.

The stock itself has continually ramped its way up , filling some of the topside gap on the chart, trading from a low of 10.08 on the morning of our initial alert, to a new high of 13.33 yesterday. That’s an increase of 32% on the stock alone, with the observed gains in our highlighted options making much more significant moves:

$10 CallsRange: 1.50-3.20 – Max Gain: 113%
$12.50 Calls – Range: .50-1.50 – Max Gain: 200%
$15 Calls – Range: .23-.55  – Max Gain: 139%

As you can see on the following chart snapshot, indicators are strongly suggesting that ANAB should continue to make progress in filling the immense gap.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: MIK Options & More

SPDR S&P500 ETF (SPY) – Recap

We went bullish on the SPY in our premarket report yesterday, and thanks to two distinct intraday pushes for the markets, there were opportunities across the board for our highlighted contracts throughout the session.

Those targets were the daily SPY 03/18 $281-282 Calls, and we saw significant moves from all three. The $281.50 Calls traded in a range from .34-1.06 for an overall upswing of 212% while the $282’s traded up from .15 to .58, a gain of 287% (We mistakenly lost exact data for the $281 calls, but the gain opportunities were very similar to those of the other two strike points.) 


The Michaels Companies, Inc. MIK

We also want to signal a set of contracts on MIK, which was the one listing on this morning’s earnings calendar that jumped out to us the most. Michaels posted an earnings beat, but also happens to be trading near its annual lows.

We’re going to approach this like we would any other play with bottom-bouncer written all over it, by signaling some longer-term calls to give ourselves some extra time to see the recovery play out. We’re going to radar the MIK 04/18 $12.50 Calls and monitor their activity in the days and weeks ahead.
