Bitcoin Related Options & More

Bitcoin Boom Related Ideas 

With Bitcoin values pushing past $28K we want to start of this morning by identifying some related options ideas. In addition RIOT and MARA, which are directly connected to btc, we will also be entertaining an idea for OSTK, which seems to have a tendency to run concurrently with the digital currently.

Our specific targets in each of these potential plays are going to be as follows:

RIOT Weekly $15-16 Calls
MARA 01/15 $13-15 Calls
OSTK Weekly $47.50-58 Calls

Bonus Idea: 

Unrelated to Bitcoin, we also want to signal some calls in AZN as the company hopes its COVID-19 shot developed in conjunction with Oxford University will receive UK approval presently. We’re going to radar the AZN 01/08 $50-52 Calls.


Optech International Inc. OPTI

We have been tracking a relatively large amount of OTC stocks compared to what has become typical for us over the years. The most recent success story there happened last week in the form of OPTI, as we mentioned the stock in our reports from Wednesday and Thursday morning.

On Wednesday, we observed a low of .0576 which gave way to a new high of .0914 on Thursday. That works out to an overall move of 59%, a figure we would expect to see increase with the resumption of trading today based on the premarket activity we’re observing this morning.

AAPL News/Earnings Headlines Exciting Day

Apple, Inc. AAPL – Options Update

Yesterday morning, AAPL was among our fresh options ideas in our premarket report, as AAPL has a tendency to run into earnings, and was slated for a post-market release. That indeed was the case, and our targets, the  AAPL Weekly $375-377.50 Calls fared reasonably well.

That being said, the party is just getting started, because not only did AAPL blow Q3 earnings expectations out of the water. but the company also announced a 4-for-1 forward split planned for August. Here are the intraday gains made by our targets yesterday, which will be significantly higher once trading commences today:

AAPL Weekly $375-377.50 Calls
$375:
 10.19-15.11 (+48%)
$377.50: 8.80-13.50 (+53%)

AAPL will open at fresh all time highs, and send those contracts soaring. We’re also going to add a few other possible targets to take advantage of the current activity, with the AAPL Weekly $407.50-412.50 Calls* as well as the 08/07 $415 Calls.


More Options Review

We also had ranges of ideas in several other options chains yesterday morning and saw some truly explosive gains. Here are the ranges and total multibag profit opportunities that they provided:

QCOM Weekly $102-104 Calls
$102: 1.05-5.66 (+439%)
$103: .96-4.94 (+415%)
$104: .35-4.00 (+1043%)
_____

PYPL Weekly $190-195 Calls
$190: 2.15-5.15 (+140%)
$192.50: 1.12-3.31 (+196%)
$195: .70-1.96 (+180%)
_____

OSTK Weekly $70-75 Calls
$70:
 1.24-9.50 (+666%)
$75: .60-5.90 (+883%)

The markets in general have a tendency to run when AAPL crushes on earnings, and that could be ready to happen today, leading to added gains in one or more of these plays.
