Massive Moves Friday, Potential Trades to Start the Week

Friday’s Big Time Movers:

We closed things out on Friday morning just before the holiday break in a really big way. In our premarket report, we offered up trade possibilities in four options chains, and came away with multibag intraday performances across the board that ranged from good to great. It perpetuates a trend of excellence we’ve had going for 2024 so far, in which we’ve only missed on a single daily options idea. All indications are that this year is going to be every bit as successful as the last!

On Friday morning, were looking at the SPY 01/12 $475-477 Calls, the C Weekly $52-53 Calls, the JPM Weekly $170-175 Calls, and the UNH Weekly $520-515 Puts, and here were the excellent moves they posted during the session:

Wrapping Up a Successful Week, 4 Plays for Friday

Thursday’s Across-the-Board Sweep:

Things hashed out rather well for us on Thursday, as we offered our readers five new ideas for possible options plays in our daily premarket report. The wider the net you cast, there’s always a higher chance of the occasional miss, but that didn’t happen yesterday. Instead we got right back on our 2024 hot streak, with just one single idea we’ve put forth so far here in the new year failing to produce instant positive results.

Yesterday’s movers were the INFY Weekly $18 Calls, the KBH Weekly $62-61 Puts, the MARA Weekly $26-27 Calls, the COIN Weekly $155-157.50 Calls, and the NVDA Weekly $545-547.50 Calls. Here were the types of intraday moves they exhibited during the session:
