Blue Horseshoe Stocks: DIS Options

The Walt Disney Co. DIS

The first thing on the menu this morning is to take a look at Disney on the heels of ESPN+ securing US broadcast rights to Bundesliga soccer from 2020 to 2026.

The stock is already exhibiting a fairly solid double bottom formation. What we want to see is DIS holding above the 200DMA of 125.98, and if it can manage that, we’re going to be very interested in the DIS 11/08 $133-136 Calls.

Atreca, Inc. BCEL

We also want to radar BCEL, which is a bottom-play candidate for us as we kick off this fresh trading week. The stock nearing the 3-month mark since its IPO, and is not trading far off of its records lows at the moment.

We’re going to want to keep an eye on this play for a potential reversal ion the days and weeks ahead. The stock had a swing of over 100% last month near these levels, so we will be interested to watch and see if it can repeat itself.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: DIS, TRXC Recaps & More

TransEnterix, Inc. TRXC

We made a good catch when we included TRXC in yesterday morning’s premarket report, after it was reported that the company’s robotic surgery device got the regulatory approval it needed.

The result was a very nice run from a low of 2.15 to 3.05, the highest PPS the stock has seen since the spring of 2016. That works out to an intraday push of 42% and this morning TRXC is edging even higher in before-hours trading, so we’ll want to continue to keep an eye on it moving forward.

Walt Disney Co. DIS

We highlighted some options ideas for Disney yesterday morning, after noticing that it had a nice bottom setup on the chart, trading near its ten-month lows.

For a near-term idea we signaled the DIS Weekly $96-98 Calls and among those five contracts, three produced opportunities for solid single-session gains.

$97 Calls – Range: 1.15-1.57 – Max Gain: 37%
$97.50 Calls – Range: .81-1.22 – Max Gain: 51%.
$98 Calls – Range: .49-.89 – Max Gain: 82%

We also noticed that the $98.50s had the highest open interest, so we will want to roll up our observed range a little and keep an eye on those for the remainder of the week.

Netflix, Inc. NFLX

We also want to put a few options contracts in the NFLX chain on watch. The stock has been in a general uptrend for nearly all of 2017, with the exception of one month between late July and late August. Currently the stock is approaching extreme overbought levels on the strength index just as it was prior to that downturn.

On the flip side, boosted guidance and a strong earnings call this morning could make things interesting. Due to these opposing factors, we’re going to want to watch some contracts on both sides of the fence, depending on NFLX’s behavior once regular market hours kick in.

If the stock can’t get above $207.50, we’re going to zero in on the NFLX Weekly $207.50 and $205 Puts. Conversely, if it holds above $200 on any pullbacks, we’ll focus on the Weekly $200-205 Calls.
