Monday’s Runners, 6-Pack of New Ideas

Good Start to the Week:

Things went rather well for us to start the fresh trading week yesterday. Our premarket report contained three short term and one longer term idea, and the three quick-strike plays all delivered. This was despite having a shallow pool of earnings reporters, and having to improvise in terms of the targets. We shouldn’t have that issue today, with a full slate on the earnings calendar and a lot more interesting things happening.

As for yesterday’s fresh plays, here we have the intraday figures on the SPY 10/23 $421-420 Puts, the AAPL Weekly $172.50-170 Puts, and the AA Weekly $24-23.50 Puts:

Options Gainers Across the Board, New Ideas

Options Gainers Across the Board:

The markets were back to the doldrums yesterday, gapping down to start and never getting back above water on the session, but that didn’t stop us from scoring some decent gain chances with the options ideas in our premarket report. Not all of those potential gains were earth-shattering, but several were extremely solid, and the remainder was respectable.

We were tracking the NTES Weekly $98-100 Calls, which put forth the moderate opportunities, while the WOOF Weekly $15-16 Calls, and the ZM Weekly $91.50-93 Calls fared quite a bit better, as they logged extra large multi-bag spikes on the day. Take a look at the figures from these successful plays below:

NTES Weekly $98-100 Calls
$98:
 1.25-1.88 (+50%)
$99: .95-1.41 (+48%)

Options Reviews, Fresh Ideas

Options Runners:

We’re ready to kick off a fresh trading week today, but before we can dive into what’s looking ripe for the picking this morning, of course we need to go over the solid gains that occurred in our targeted options plays from Friday morning’s premarket report.

Three of our four designated set of options ideas on the day panned out to some significant gain opportunities for us. We were looking at the EXPE Weekly $202.50-207.50 Calls, the F Weekly $17.50-18 Calls, and the NET Weekly $119-122 Calls.
