Reviewing Winning Ideas, Formulating New Ones

Johnson & Johnson JNJ

We were correct in assuming yesterday would be a good day to put some options trading ideas for Johnson & Johnson on the table. The company is now at the center of the frantic pursuit of a vaccine to eradicate the deadly COVID-19 virus. We expect we will be following its role in this endeavor to completion.

For now, while we have signaled some longer-term options as well, we’re mainly interested in the short term plays we’re tracking and the moves they began to make yesterday. We will include the modest moves made by our September calls, but would expect to have to wait for them to come into play in a more meaningful way.

JNJ Weekly $125-130 Calls
$125:
 5.15-9.81 (+90%)
$126: 4.00-9.00 (+125%)
$127: 4.00-8.00 (+100%)
$128: 2.95-7.37 (+150%)
$129: 2.86-6.65 (+133%)
$130: 2.45-5.96 (+143%)

09/18 $150-155 Calls
$150:
 3.50-5.00 (+43%)
$155: 2.80-3.50 (+25%)


Top Ships, Inc. TOPS 

Our chatroom call from Friday, which we highlighted in yesterday morning’s premarket report, tacked considerable gains onto our observed range after another huge bullish session. It saw a daily run from .36 to a new high of .62, which comes out to an intraday increase of 72%

From the low of .135 that TOPS saw on Friday morning when we offered it to our traders chat participants, yesterday’s new high mark represented a two-day upswing of 359% We’re seeing a significant pullback in the stock this morning, so this run has had it, but we’ll keep an eye skinned as it searches out a bottom, as a another swing to the upside may follow shortly thereafter.

Anyone who enjoys our premarket reports can also join our daily traders chats on Skype. It’s a place to get new ideas and even share some of your own in real-time throughout the course of each trading day. Send a Skype contact request to username “stocksumo” and we’ll see you there! 


Streaming Stocks 

More people are at home streaming content than ever before, and that is going to be true throughout the duration of the coronavirus crisis, which most experts agree will persist until a vaccine is successfully produced, sometime in 2021. Here are a couple of obvious players who stand to maintain solid business through this new dynamic, and some corresponding ideas.

ROKU Weekly $87.50-89 Calls
NFLX $365-372.50 Calls
