Recent Options Movers & More

Recent Runners:

With no earnings plays to work with, it was a pretty rough outing yesterday to kick off the week. We didn’t see immediate chances for returns on the few options ideas we selected, leaving us in anticipation of another earnings season to begin its return next week. We’ll keep the plays we highlighted yesterday on the radar as always, but for this morning’s report, we’ll just focus on some other longer-term ideas we recently formulated, and the progress they’ve managed since then.

We flagged the EVGO 08/18 $4-5 Calls last Monday the 3rd, and the SNOW 08/04 $170-165 Puts we signaled on Friday morning, and have seen some reasonably solid swings from them.

T2 Biosystems, Inc. (NASDAQ:TTOO)

We’ve also seen quite an impressive multibag run from TTOO, which we began tracking in our report from the morning of June 22nd. Over these past few weeks we’ve witnessed the stock rise from a low of .066 to as much as .1894 in the premarket this morning. That works out to a gain of 187%

Perfect Start to the Week, New Options Ideas

Flawless Options Trading Session:

We were interested in four different options trading ideas that we placed on watch in our premarket report yesterday morning, and we were very pleased with the results we met with, having all four sets of calls produce some type of intraday movement for us. We love a good clean sweep, and as our regular readers can attest, it’s not a rare occurrence for us.

Our focal points for the session were the KMX Weekly $69-70 Calls, the NKE Weekly $121 Calls, the PSMT 04/21 $75 Calls, and the ASO 04/21 $65 Calls. The potential gains we saw varied wildly, from a modest 24-percenter on up to a mammoth 445-percenter. Here’s the rundown of the activity they presented on the day.

KMX Weekly $69-70 Calls
$69:
 2.07-4.74 (+129%)
$70: 1.45-3.93 (+171%)

More Thousand Percent+ Gainers, New Plays

Options Reviews:

We were feeling mainly bullish about our interests yesterday as we kicked off another trading week and a couple of the sets of calls we were tracking enjoyed a pretty solid session. After initially gapping down to start things off, the markets moved in a positive direction all day long, and made up all the ground that was ceded in premarket trading. That activity helped push our tracked plays to some pretty good intraday movement.

Those runners were the GBX 04/21 $30-35 Calls, and the MU Weekly $60-62 Calls, and we’ll go ahead and list off the daily ranges and total possible gains they registered below. We also have an update on a longer-term set of puts we signaled a couple of Thursdays ago on March 30th, the SMTC 04/21 $26-25 Puts, which have continued to rise as the stock has steadily fallen to new lows. That has resulted in some absolutely massive moves in the pair of targets we’ve been tracking, and you’ll find those moves below as well.

GBX 04/21 $30-35 Calls
$30:
 2.50-3.60 (+44%)
$35: .34-.79 (+132%)
