Solid Start to the Week, Trio of New Ideas

Monday’s Moves:

Another new week got off to a pretty good start for us yesterday, with each of the three ideas we formulated for our premarket report recording decent intraday upswings.

Solid Start to the Week, 3 Fresh Plays

Recap for Monday’s Report:

The week got off to a pretty good start on Monday, despite a brief lull in the flow of big time earnings reporters. We had signaled interest in some SPY Calls as well as a couple of longer-term looks that we feel could have potential in the days and weeks ahead, in our premarket report. The SPY performed quite well, and one of the two February ideas produced immediate positive intraday results.

Those two target sets were the SPY 01/22 $482-483 Calls, and the PBF 02/16 $43-44 Calls. , and in addition to their daily performances, we also have some nice new highs to report on the SAVE 02/16 $5.00-7.50 Calls we’ve been tracking since last Wednesday.
