End of Week Runners, 5 Fresh Targets

Great Way to Finish Out the Week:  

We always enjoy it when we can end a trading week on a positive note, and that’s just what we get to do today after our options performance yesterday left nothing to be desired. We formulated an array of five separate options plays, and each one of them produced some good intraday activity, and thus chances for some intraday success stories.

Our winners from our premarket report yesterday morning were the CRM Weekly $225-230 Calls, the CRWD Weekly $150-152.50 Calls, the OKTA Weekly $80-82 Calls, the CIEN 09/15 $45-50 Calls and the SPY 08/31 $451-452 Calls. As we said, they all turned in impressive cards on the session, making the following intraday runs:

Wednesday’s Options Perfection, Fresh Ideas

We really came through on the four options ideas we put on watch in yesterday morning’s premarket report. We had three earnings-related plays as well as some targets in the daily SPY, and witnessed some very nice activity out of our entire board. That leaves the number of unsuccessful options picks we’ve made this week at exactly one, with literally everything else we’ve mentioned providing some serious chances for quick profits.

Yesterday’s winning targets were the PAYX 04/21 $115 Calls, the LULU Weekly $367.50-372.50 Calls, the MU Weekly $59-61 Calls, and the SPY 03/29 $397-398 Calls, and here are the sorts of gains they provided for ourselves and our readers on the day:

Kicking the Tires on a Fresh Trading Week

Friday’s Options Runners:

We hope everyone enjoyed the last long weekend until the holidays, and is as ready as we are to hop back into trading action. We ended last week on a fairly positive note, having selected three potential options targets for observation and observing considerable gains in each of them. We are now seeing a considerable drop-off in daily reporters after what was an amazing earning season, but as always, we’ll seek out opportunities and make them work for us!

Our targets from Friday morning’s premarket report worked for us, and they were the AVGO Weekly $495-510 Calls, the LULU Weekly $315-322.50 Calls, and the HCP 09/16 $35-40 Calls. The LULU targets in the low end of the range were our biggest winners of the session, making moves that topped 300%

AVGO Weekly $495-510 Calls
$495: 11.71-21.11 (+80%)
$500: 7.19-16.00 (+122%)

Shorts Yield Dividends, Fresh Ideas to Close out the Week

Bearish Signals Pay Off:

We got things back on track in a big way for yesterday morning’s premarket report, with regard to our daily options ideas. It is an extremely rare occurrence that we would signal a full slate with nothing but bearish targets, but that’s exactly how things shook out yesterday, and it worked to our advantage.

The collection of puts that we were tracking for the day were the MDB Weekly $280-275 Puts, the OKTA Weekly $78-75 Puts, the CIEN 09/16 $55-45 Puts, and the SPY 09/02 $395-393 Puts, and thanks partly to the early downturn in the markets right from the opening bell, these were the caliber of gain opportunities that awaited us with these ideas:

MDB Weekly $280-275 Puts
$280: 
11.90- 40.58 (+241%)
$277.50: 14.60-39.00 (+228%)
