Looking For a Big Start to the Trading Week

Strong Finish on Friday:

We really ended a strong trading week in a blaze of glory on Friday. In our premarket report we included ideas for four separate options chains which all gave us instant opportunities at big returns. the markets as a whole posted quite the bullish session from the open right on through to the close, and it helped with our slate of four bullish ideas immensely.

We had zeroed our attention in on the INTC Weekly $27.50-28.50 Calls, the TMUS Weekly $143-146 Calls, the GILD Weekly $71-74 Calls, and the CVX Weekly $177.50-182.50 Calls for the session, and were not at all disappointed in the results. We even saw a massive eleven-bagger from the CVX $180’s, in addition to respectable multibag gains in most of the other targets as well. Here’s the breakdown of those moves and the total possible profits that were there for the taking:

KLAC Review, Fresh Options Plays

KLA Corp. KLAC – Recap:

We signaled a range a options plays for Friday’s session in our premarket report, and while they all saw positive moves, KLAC was the clear standout, which sustained its gains over a much longer period.

We were tracking the KLAC Weekly $330-340 Calls and following the company’s earnings beat, the stock was propelled from a low of 335.56-348.16 on the day, and that facilitated some elite single-session gain opportunities for us and our readers. This comes just weeks after it was reported that hedge fund interest in the company was on the rise.

Here were the big time daily moves posted by our designated targets in the KLAC options chain on Friday:

KLAC Weekly $330-340 Calls
$330: 6.00-22.90 (+282%)

Retail Earnings Opportunities

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. CBRL – Recap:

This morning we’re updating readers on the fresh options idea from yesterday. Just to give a heads up, this idea appeared in our report yesterday as Weekly calls, which was in error. The next expiration date on any existing CBRL options is June 18th, so we’re talking about the CBRL 06/18 $155-165 Calls.

Those fared quite well on the day despite three weeks remaining until their expiry. Here are the intraday gains they recorded:

CBRL 06/18 $155-165 Calls
$155: 4.40-6.68 (+52%)
$160: 2.45-4.40 (+80%)
$165: 1.25-2.40 (+92%)

Based on premarket activity this morning, it appears as if CBRL may be preparing to gap up, and as a result we may see further advances in these contract sets. We’re going to want to continue to monitor their activity into June 18th.

Fresh Options Ideas:

Despite a general decrease in the number of daily earnings reporters, we’ve got a fair few retail giants dropping figures this morning, and we’ll venture a target for the SPY as well.

URBN Weekly $37-39 Calls
ANF Weekly $39-40.50 Calls
DKS Weekly $88-91 Calls
SPY 05/26 $418-420 Calls
