Monday’s Moves, SIX Fresh Ideas

Monday Recaps:

The activity we saw on Monday to start off the fresh trading week wasn’t quite up to the stadards we like to set for ourselves.

Double-Baggers Across the Board, Fresh Plays

SPY, TSLA Options Record Solid Moves: 

We kicked off the holiday-shortened week yesterday morning with a couple of off-the-cuff options ideas for the SPY and TSLA with no earnings reporters to spice things up on the day. Despite a decline in the markets for most of the session, our SPY Calls recorded some notable runs early on in the day, while TSLA turned out to be a really good short.

The particular targets that we selected for monitoring in our premarket report were the SPY 01/03 $383-384 Calls, and the TSLA Weekly $120-118 Puts. Two-for-two on the first trading day of the year sets a good tone for 2023, and leaves us with high hopes for another great year. Here were the gains that were there for the taking yesterday, all of which secured double-bag status:

SPY 01/03 $383-384 Calls
$383:
 .46-.94 (+104%)
$384: .28-.58 (+107%)
_____

TSLA Weekly $120-118 Puts
$120: 5.55-15.60 (+181%)
$119: 5.08-14.75 (+190%)
$118: 4.55-13.80 (+203%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
SPY 01/04 $382-383 Calls
SGH 01/20 $15-17.50 Calls


Jasper Therapeutics, Inc. JSPR – NASDAQ Recap:

We’ve been getting some lower-priced NASDAQ plays popping off of our daily watchlists with greater frequency, even during a time of year when the OTC tends to see more activity. Yesterday morning’s standout NASDAQ runner was JSPR, which shot up 138% as it ran from a daily low of 1.60, up as high as 3.80.

New Year, New Opportunities!

Options Reviews: 

We hope everyone had a Happy New Year and a pleasant long weekend, and are all set to hit the ground running. We’re ready to give everything we’ve got to make 2023 every bit as exciting as 2022, and more! We’re going to kick things off this morning by going over the performances on a couple sets of longer-term options ideas we formulated a couple of weeks ago.

From our reports on December 20th and 22nd, respectively, we’ve been tracking the PLAY 01/20 $35-36 Calls and the PAYX 01/20 $115-120 Calls. The Paychex calls in particular have posted some serious multibag gains over that time span. With still more than two weeks remaining until their expiration, both sets of ideas have made pretty good headway indeed, posting the following moves and total possible profits so far:

PLAY 01/20 $35-36 Calls
$35: 1.03-1.85 (+80%)
$36: .72-1.27 (+76%)
_____

PAYX 01/20 $115-120 Calls
$115: .92-4.03 (+338%)
$120: .33-1.65 (+400%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
SPY 01/03 $383-384 Calls
TSLA Weekly $120-118 Puts 


Silo Pharma, Inc. SILO – NASDAQ Recap:

We included SILO on our watchlist in Friday morning’s premarket report, and were pleased with the single session move it made from 4.64-6.56. That works out to an intraday rise of 41% which is a pretty respectable rip for a $4+ NASDAQ stock. Our extended watchlists typically contain a mix of both big board and OTC stocks.
