Back on Track with Options Plays & More

Back in the Swing on Options Plays: 

After a somewhat lackluster day on Monday as we mentioned yesterday morning, our slate of options for Tuesday made a full turnaround. We set up four earnings related options targets, and are pleased to report that all four produced notable intraday moves for us.
