Reviewing Thursday’s Movers, 4 New Possibilities

Thursday’s Options Recap:

Things ended on a positive note for us on Thursday, just before we broke for the holiday weekend. In our premarket report for the day, we were looking at three potential options trading targets, and everything we came up with produced double-bag intraday runs or better. It’s always nice to end a trading week with a whole slate full of good ideas, and that was certainly the case.

We were considering the SPY 03/28 $522-523 Calls, the MLKN 04/19 $25 Puts, and the RH Weekly $325-330 Calls, and here are the figures those contracts produced on the session:

SPY 03/28 $522-523 Calls
$522
: 1.23-2.65 (+115%)
$523: .58-1.71 (+195%)
_____

MLKN 04/19 $25 Puts
$25: .80-1.65 (+106%)
_____

RH Weekly $325-330 Calls
$325: 5.80-28.89 (+398%)
$330: 5.00-23.31 (+366%)

SPY 04/01 $424-425 Calls*
BOIL Weekly $13.50-14.50 Calls
SGML 04/19 $13-14 Calls
LCII 05/17 $120-115 Puts

*Only experienced traders should attempt to trade options on their day of expiration

A Top Shelf Tuesday, 5 New Targets

Tuesday Runners Review:

Yesterday worked out very well in our favor in terms of the options ideas we formulated for our premarket report. We didn’t have a heck of a lot to work with in terms of earnings reporters, but the plays we did find produced excellent intraday performances. In the case of DNUT, the stock posted the largest single session gain and highest volume since its inception. This was on news that Krispy Kreme donuts will now be available at McDonald’s, and it sent DNUT and the targets we had put forth on one heck of a ride!

Yesterday’s interests were the TSLA Weekly $177.50-180 Calls, the MKC 04/19 $75 Calls, and of course the DNUT 04/19 $15 Calls. Here are the big time gains they posted on Tuesday:

TSLA Weekly $177.50-180 Calls
$177.50
: 2.96-7.66 (+159%)
$180: 1.61-5.76 (+258%)
_____

MKC 04/19 $75 Calls
$75
: 1.20-3.30 (+175%)
_____

DNUT 04/19 $15 Calls
$15: .40-3.20 (+700%)

DNUT 04/19 $17.50 Calls
