Thursday’s Movers, Fresh Play Friday

Thursday’s Big Runners:

We kept things moving yesterday with regard to our never-ending daily quest for hot options trades. Our premarket report contained five sets of ideas based off of a big day for earnings, and of those, four returned some very nice chances for intraday profit. We’ve got some nice names on the board today, so we feel confident that we can carry this success into the weekend.

Yesterday’s big opportunities came in the form of the TTWO Weekly $139-141 Calls, the WMT Weekly $150-152.50 Calls, the BABA Weekly $90-92 Calls, and the BBWI Weekly $36-37.50 Calls. The moves they recorded were fairly impressive. Here’s how the session shook out:

SMPL Update, Form-4 Alert


The Simply Good Foods Co. SMPL –  Options Review 
.
On Thursday morning, SMPL was among the fresh options trading targets that we had mentioned in our premarket report.  We were looking specifically at the SMPL 08/21 $20-22.50 Calls.

Despite it being one of our relatively rare longer-term swing-trade ideas, with tons of time remaining until expiration, we did see some early gains right off the bat from those plays as the week drew to a close.

08/21 $20-22.50 Calls
$20: 1.50-2.20 (+47%)
$22.50: .70-1.30 (+86%)

We’ll certainly continue to have these targets on watch in the weeks and months ahead, it was good to see some instantaneous opportunity arise.

AxoGen Inc. AXGN – Form-4 Alert

We would also like to make mention of AXGN this morning. which we caught sight of during a routine Form-4 scan. We’ve got the CEO picking up shares and adding to his already considerable position just as the stock was preparing to register new annual lows.

We generally like to put stocks in this situation on watch, and will be anxiously awaiting the company’s quarterly results due in roughly two weeks.
