Biggest Options Gainers & More

Options Recaps:

We’ve gotten off to another great start with regard to options trading this week. Yesterday morning in our premarket report, we formulated a couple of ideas, in the THO and UNFI chains on the heels of those companies’ earnings reports.

Despite an extremely poor session for the markets in general yesterday, both of our our ideas, the THO 10/15 $115-120 Calls and the UNFI 10/15 $35-40 Calls, bucked the trend and exhibited multibag gains on the day for us. A strong performance all around no matter which contract set within our targeted ranges was selected.

Here are those excellent multibag intraday moves posted by our plays:

THO 10/15 $115-120 Calls
$115: 4.40-12.70 (+187%)
$120: 2.10-8.70 (+314%)
_____

UNFI 10/15 $35-40 Calls
$35: 5.00-12.32 (+146%)
$40: .1.60-7.57 (+373%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
MU Weekly $72-71 Puts
WOR 10/15 $60-65 Calls


Farmmi, Inc. FAMI 

We also would like to designate FAMI as a longer-term bottom bouncer that has the potential to become a solid recovery play.

We are going to radar FAMI for the effort the company is making to get its stock back to the dollar minimum PPS required for continued listing on the NASDAQ. A shareholder letter from the CEO this morning outlined some of the ways that’s happening, including planned acquisitions and more. (>>Read PR)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: 900% Gainer & More

SPDR S&P500 (ETF) SPY – Options Explode

Yesterday morning we added a fresh options trading idea for the SPY chain, namely the Weekly $289.50-291 Calls and we are happy to report that not only was our idea spot-on, but the intraday gains made possible were rather eye-popping.

Here are the total possible profits that our readers could have snagged in a single session on the strength of our ideas, including an incredible NINE-BAGGER!

SPY Weekly $289.50-291 Calls 

$289.50 Calls – Range: 1.10-2.61 – Max Gain: 137%
$290 Calls – Range: .73-2.29 – Max Gain: 214%
$290.50 Calls – Range: .52-1.75 – Max Gain: 237%
$291 Calls – Range: .15-1.51 – Max Gain: 907%

Fresh Idea:
BBBY Weekly $13-12 Puts  



Ocugen Inc. OCGN 

We also want to provide a brief update on another recent call we made, with OCGN. We tagged this one for observation as a bottom-play this past Friday morning, and already we’ve seen a pretty good swing to the upside.

The stock has traded in a range from 1.22-2.04 this week, marking a respectable  move of 67%  We’ll be interested to see if it can continue to register new highs for us in coming sessions.  



Sundial Growers, Inc. SNDL

We are seeing a very intriguing potential play on cannabis grower SNDL this morning. The recently-IPO’d stock has taken a bath in the two months following its first trades, having already been embroiled in a class-action suit. Yesterday the company showed that the claims of the lawsuit are essentially baseless, and the PPS began to recover.

We’re going to keep a close eye on the activity here in the days and weeks ahead, as the technicals of the chart are screaming upside potential at the present time. Not to put the cart before the horse, but we feel that a double from current pricing would not be out of the realm of realistic possibility.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Form-4 Plays & More

SPDRA S&P 500 ETF (SPY) – Recap

Our first order of business this morning is to share the performance of the options we alerted on in Friday morning’s report. Those targets were the SPY Weekly $290-291.50 Calls, and they produced some very nice single session gain opportunities for ourselves and our readers.

We have typically been very good playing the SPY in the past, and this time was no different, The gains that were on the table were as follows:

$290 Calls – Range: .34-1.04 – Max Gain: 206%
$290.50 Calls – Range: .12-.58 – Max Gain: 383%
$291 Calls – Range: .20-.46 – Max Gain: 130%
$291.50 Calls – Range: .08-.19 – Max Gain: 138%



Francesca Holdings Corp. FRAN
& Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. FOLD

This morning we noticed that FRAN is exhibiting a number of traits that we normally keep a lookout for. The stock is coming off of a bottom with a large gap on the chart, and on Friday, the CEO filed a Form-4 for the purchase of 10,000 shares near the stock’s lows.

This is often a sign of high internal confidence in the stock’s ability to rebound, so we’re going to place FRAN on recovery watch in the days and weeks ahead.
_____

FOLD is another play which also currently boasts a bottom setup, with a significant amount of insider buying taking place on Thursday at its lows. We’ll definitely want to keep this one on watch as well.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: SNAP Rocking & More

Snap, Inc. SNAP

After we signaled our interest in a range of SNAP calls yesterday morming, the stock turned in quite a performance. In fact, SNAP ended up being the top gainer on the NASDAQ for the session.

That activity paved the way for some excellent intraday moves for our designated contracts, the SNAP Weekly $16-17.50 Calls, which all more than

$16 Calls – Range: 1.15-5.00 – Max Gain: 335%
$16.50 Calls – Range: .93-4.38 – Max Gain: 371%
$17 Calls – Range: .50-4.00 – Max Gain: 700%
$17.50 Calls – Range: .45-3.51– Max Gain: 680%

We feel good about a continuation of the same kind of volatility we saw with SNAP yesterday, and will roll up our potential strike prices, and begin to monitor the SNAP Weekly $21-22.50 Calls as we finish out the week.

Fresh Options Idea:
GrubHub, Inc. GRUB – Weekly $80-85 Calls

Twitter. Inc. TWTR – Weekly $31-33 Calls


Biocept, Inc. BIOC

We want to keep tabs on BIOC after the announcement of a public offering precipitated what we would consider an over-reactionary selloff.

The company raised a sum of roughly $14.8M after offering approximately 32M shares at an exercise price of .45, along with immediately exercise-able warrants to purchase another 32M shares at .50.

We would classify it fall to a new annual low of  .30 yesterday as a kneejerk response, and with the stock being this heavily oversold, we’ll want to put this one on bottom-bounce watch immediately.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: AVEO Recap & More

AVEO Pharmaceuticals, Inc. AVEO

Swinging back around to discuss AVEO is our top order of business this morning after the stock soared to new highs yesterday. We placed this stock on watch on June 23rd, subsequently mentioning it several times.

On the day of our initial alert, AVEO traded for as little as 1.05 per share, and after multiple weeks in a near-contnual uptrend, the gains have been fantastic. Yesterday AVEO reached new four year highs of 3.19, marking an overall swing of 204%

Volume over the same period has been greatly heightened, and yesterday’s close at 3.15 was a strong one, so even though AVEO has had momentum-mover status for several sessions, we’re going to want to continue to watch it closely.


Inotek Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ITEK

We’re always looking for a good bottom-bouncer, which is why we want to take note of ITEK this morning after disappointing study results on the company’s eye drug sent shares tumbling yesterday.

As we point out on the chart snapshot below, the stock has been beaten back into oversold territory, leaving a big gap on the chart. We’ll place it on watch for the filling of that gap, which from present pricing would spell gains of up to 60%
