SMPL Update, Form-4 Alert


The Simply Good Foods Co. SMPL – 
Options Review 
.
On Thursday morning, SMPL was among the fresh options trading targets that we had mentioned in our premarket report.  We were looking specifically at the SMPL 08/21 $20-22.50 Calls.

Despite it being one of our relatively rare longer-term swing-trade ideas, with tons of time remaining until expiration, we did see some early gains right off the bat from those plays as the week drew to a close.

08/21 $20-22.50 Calls
$20: 1.50-2.20 (+47%)
$22.50: .70-1.30 (+86%)

We’ll certainly continue to have these targets on watch in the weeks and months ahead, it was good to see some instantaneous opportunity arise.
