Sharp Start to the Week, 4 Fresh Targets

Solid Start to the Week:

Things went pretty well for us on Monday to kick off the fresh trading week.

Tuesday’s Runners, 5 New Potential Plays

Tuesday’s Runners:

Tuesday’s trading session went far better for us than Monday’s, after all three of the possible plays we flagged in our premarket report yielded solid results on the day. Although our idea for PLTR was the most impressive, we expect our other plays to tack on some new highs today, based off of how things are looking in the premarket. We’ll look to roll up on TSLA as well.

Our focal points for yesterday were the PLTR Weekly $47-49 Calls, the NVDA Weekly $136-137 Calls, and the TSLA Weekly $247.50-250 Calls. Here were the intraday results they turned in:

PLTR Weekly $47-49 Calls

$47.50: .74-4.35 (+488%)

Recap of Friday, 3 New Ideas

Friday Review:

While Friday didn’t exactly end things on a bang, the hit the markets took certainly went quite a way toward progressing the bearish options ideas we were tracking into the end of the week. We had a couple of sets of puts targeted in our premarket report, and some more bearish targets in TSLA that we’d been tracking throughout the week. Each of those put up significant intraday runs, and in the case of the TSLA puts, tacked on further highs.

Our shorts from Friday were the NFLX Weekly $580-570 Puts, and the PG Weekly $157.50-155 Puts. As for the TSLA Weekly $152.50-150 Puts, we had been tracking those since Wednesday’s premarket report. All of those numbers a re below. Additionally, a set of TSLA $170 Puts we signaled on Monday also added to their intraweek totals, and we think we’ll continue to see TSLA feel the pain, so we’re going to roll down and select some new targets for that chain today as well.

NFLX Weekly $580-570 Puts
$580: .89-5.25 (+490%)
$575: 1.53-7.85 (+413%)
$570: 2.35-11.00 (+368%)

PG Weekly $157.50-155 Puts

Ringing in 2024 with a 4-Pack of Fresh Ideas

Best Wishes for 2024!

In a rare occurrence, we opted not to include any options trading ideas on Friday before breaking for the holiday. There were no earnings reporters, and the markets were looking rather subdued, and set up for a humdrum kind of a day. It was a quiet end to a year that had been anything but quiet, but we’re ready to get things rolling for 2024. We’ll still be without earnings reporters today, but that won’t stop us from rooting out something to focus upon for this first trading day of the year.

If 2024 turns out anywhere near as positive as 2023 was, we will be in very good shape! It is the 13th calendar year since we opened up BlueHorseshoeStocks.com as a daily archive of all of our newsletters (all 3,230 of which are still public and available for review!) and we’re going stronger than ever! To subscribers new and old, we hope you’ll stick with us for what promises to be a VERY interesting 2024!
