Spartan Energy Acquisition Corp. SPAQ

We’re just days away from SPAQ’s vote on a merger with Electric Vehicle maker, Fisker, whose new EV set for launch, ‘The Ocean’, is laying claim to the title of ‘Most Sustainable Vehicle Ever’.

It’s an interesting scenario, and with the stock at a relative low on the chart at the moment, we are going to place some longer term options on watch, with the SPAQ 12/18 $10-12.50 Calls.

Earnings Related Options Ideas

Options Roundup 

We are back in the options trading saddle this morning, with the earnings calendar chock full once again. We endured a rather long dry spell in that regard, and it’s great to see the calendar filled up with quarterly reporters once again.

For some of our newer subscribers who may not yet be familiar with how we operate, we always try to utilize the inherent volatility that follows a company’s quarterly earnings drop to fuel short to intermediate term options plays. Our ideas are successful more often than not because of this dynamic.

Today, with the calendar full of symbols, here are the chains and strike ranges that we are most attracted to, and are going to want to monitor:

PG Weekly $143-144 Calls
LOGI 11/20 $95-100
DKNG 11/20 $46-48 Calls 


Northwest Biotherapeutics, Inc. NWBO

We have been tracking NWBO for the better part of two months now. We initially signaled the stock on the morning of September 2nd, and that day it saw a low of .405.

Fast forward to yesterday, and the stock has achieved a high of 2.08 which represents an increase of 414% in roughly six weeks’ time!

SPDR S&P500 (ETF) SPY – Options Recap

Yesterday morning. the sole fresh options idea we came up with in our premarket report was pertaining to the SPY. Despite the markets tanking a couple of hours prior to the close as the possibility of further coronavirus stimulus in 2020 grew more remote on comments from the White House, our targets, the SPY Weekly $340-341 Calls fared very well for the first two-thirds of the session.

Here are the total possible gains that were made from the open until about 2PM:

SPY Weekly $340-341 Calls

SunWorks, Inc. SUNW

The last time we highlighted SUNW was a couple of weeks back on September 24th as part of a focus we did on solar plays. That day, the stock came right out of the gate with a huge run from 3.30-8.50 (+158%).

After that amazing run, the stock consolidated down to a low of 1.88 and as of premarket trading this morning it has reached 5.19, with a big piece of breaking news this morning that you can find below. We’ll definitely continue to keep our eyes on SUNW, as it exhibits just the type of volatile activity that we’re always after.

ROSEVILLE, Calif., Oct. 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sunworks, Inc.
