Ending a Strong Week on a High Note

Thursday’s Major Movers: 

The majority of our fortunes have come down on the positive side of the street this week, and yesterday was a continuation of that trend. With the exception of one out of the five options ideas we had loaded up for yesterday’s premarket report, we saw really nice intraday runs out of our whole slate for the day.

We were tracking the ASAN Weekly $19.50-21 Calls, the BJ 03/17 $75-80 Calls, the JD Weekly $45.50-44.50 Puts, and the TSLA Weekly $182.50-180 Puts, and they yielded plenty of chances for multibag intraday gains. Here were the trading ranges and total possible profits they recorded:  

ASAN Weekly $19.50-21 Calls
$19.50:
 1.35-3.22 (+139%)
$20: 1.05-3.00 (+186%)

Great Start to the Short Week, Fresh Plays

Short Week Begins on a High Note: 

We got things off to a really good start yesterday morning with our first report of this short trading week, carrying over the success we have been enjoying all year long. We rarely seem to miss, and such was the case again with yesterday’s potential targets. We selected a couple of big name earnings reporters with weekly contracts, and one extended term expiration, and saw reasonable intraday opportunities out of all of them.

They were the WMT Weekly $139-142 Calls, the HD Weekly $302.50-305 Calls, and the BHP 03/17 $67.50-70 Calls, and the breakdown of their daily movement and total possible profits for traders, were as follows:

$139:
 4.40-8.60 (+95%)
$140: 3.35-8.20 (+145%)
