Midweek Movers, 5 Fresh Ideas

Midweek Runners: 

We fared rather well with our weekly picks in yesterday morning’s premarket report, despite the fact that the targets we selected with expirations set for next week lagged in performance. Both of our weekly targets were earnings-related, and they posted some moderately impressive intraday moves. The remainder of this week is going to include a lot of fresh earnings reporters, so we’re certain these won’t be the last opportunities. Infact, we’ve got quite the slate this morning.

Those ideas which were successful yesterday were the CRWD Weekly $131-133 Calls, and the CPB Weekly $52-53 Calls, and here’s the rundown of their intraday activity:

CRWD Weekly $131-133 Calls
$131: 
1.20-2.37 (+98%)
$132: .93-2.00 (+115%)
$133: .81-1.65 (+104%)

CPB Weekly $52-53 Calls
$52: .60-1.35 (+125%)
