Hot Options Plays, New Ideas

Earnings Plays Yield Gains: 

We fared quite well with our options trading selections in yesterday morning’s premarket report, with three out of our four daily targets coming up with some really nice intraday runs for us.

The winning picks for the day were the V Weekly $207.50-212.50 Calls, the MSFT Weekly $277.50-285 Calls, and the GSK Weekly $44-46 Calls.

Incredibly Fruitful Earnings Season Continues!

Daily Options Updates: 

Our daily routine rarely ever changes and that’s because the things we do work out for us so often, so there’s no good reason to deviate from our typical repertoire. We like to feature option trading ideas because that’s the shortest path to quick-strike single-session gain chances.

We generally go for contracts with a weekly expiration, but do on occasion give longer term ideas that require more time to mature. Such was the case for one of our ideas with a July expiration yesterday, but the remaining three targets recorded some nice moves for us.

UPS Weekly $190-195 Calls

Massive Options Success & More

Big Moves in All 5 of Wednesday’s Selections: 

We had a whole slew of options ideas that we formed for yesterday morning’s premarket report, offering up targets in five separate chains based off of earnings.
