Wednesday Review, New Ideas for Today

Wednesday’s Gainers:

Our midweek report yielded some pretty positive results for us yesterday, and while the potential gains weren’t quite as large as we are typically shooting for, and used to achieving, they were still very respectable, and all of our suggested targets posted some level of intraday gains for us. We can’t get mad at a 3-for-3 outing, so we’ll chalk it up as a solid trading day.

Our daily interests were the CALM 10/20 $45-40 Puts, the RPM 10/20 $95 Calls, and the HELE Weekly $108-106 Puts, and these were the moves they recorded on the session:

CALM 10/20 $45-40 Puts
$45:
 1.30-1.80 (+38%)
$42.50: .54-.82 (+52%)
$40: .10-.20 (+100%)

RPM 10/20 $95 Calls
$95: 3.00-5.00 (+67%)

HELE Weekly $108-106 Puts
$108: 2.96-4.50 (+52%)

Big Options Gainers, New Earnings Plays

Huge SPY Gains & More: 

Yesterday’s trading session was one of extremes. The markets gapped up before dipping early, and running into the Fed meeting, after which there was another precipitous drop-off followed by a late day run into the close. It was a choppy and exciting session, and that late rally pushed the SPY Calls we highlighted in our premarket report to some major league moves.

Those potential plays were the SPY 01/04 $382-383 Calls, and we got some decent intraday push from our other set of targets, the SGH 01/20 $15-17.50 Calls as well. Here were the intraday ranges and total possible gains to be had for both ideas, as well as some new highs on the PLAY 01/20 $35-36 Calls we’ve been on since December 20th:

SPY 01/04 $382-383 Calls
$382:
 .17-2.24 (+1218%)
$383: .04-.99 (+2375%)
_____

SGH 01/20 $15-17.50 Calls
$15: 1.05-1.55 (+48%)
$17.50: .15-.30 (+100%)

PLAY 01/20 $35-36 Calls
$35: 1.03-2.79 (+171%)
$36: .72-2.11 (+193%)


Fresh Options Ideas:

CAG Weekly $39-40 Calls

Kala Pharmaceuticals, Inc. KALA – Recap:

We have been tracking KALA since first alerting the stock in our report from last Wednesday morning, subsequent to which time, we would observe a low of 6.00. It has been a constant flow of new highs since then, and yesterday, KALA reached an incredible 56.72, which works out to an increase of 845% over the lows from last week.

Big Gainers, New Ideas

Donaldson Company Inc. DCI

With the earnings calendar still looking a bit light following the Thanksgiving lull, we are seeing one potential opportunity showing some synergy with the current market environment.

DCI missed on earnings published this morning, while also having been exhibiting a strong double top formation (bearish signal). Along with what looks to be a strong chance of another lackluster day for the markets at large, we are going to begin tracking the DCI 12/20 $50-45 Puts. 


Kodiak Sciences, Inc. KOD 

We also wanted to review the epic single session performance of KOD, which we included in yesterday’s premarket extended watchlist.

The stock responded with a huge run from 35.00 to a high of 72.97. That works out to an intraday surge of 108% which is simply incredible for a stock in this price range.


Organogenesis Holdings Inc. ORGO

Lastly, we’ve got a number of factors drawing our interest to ORGO. From a technical standpoint, the stock is looking ripe for rebound off of its bottom and potential topside gap fill.

Meanwhile, an institutional insider filed a Form-4 for the purchase of $30M near the current lows. When considering the entire picture, ORGO is definitely one that we will want to observe closely in the days, and possibly weeks ahead.
