Good Start to the Week, 5 New Ideas

Good Start to the Week:  

We had just a pair of fresh options possibilities in yesterday morning’s premarket report, but we managed to see some decent moves out of those. Today’s slate of potential plays will be a lot beefier, with a mix of technical setup ideas as well as a handful of big name earnings reporters.

Big Runs from Friday, A Pair of Fresh Plays

Strong Finish on Friday:  

We ended up in great shape on Friday, with the session bringing four out of the five targets in our premarket report some really nice intraday runs. We had one extended term idea with a November expiration fail to produce instant results, but we’ll continue to monitor in the days and weeks ahead.

Our daily rippers for Friday were the SCHL 10/20 $30 Puts, the NVDA Weekly $410-415 Calls, the AAPL Weekly $172.50-175 Calls, and the AMZN Weekly $129-131 Calls, and here were the excellent intraday opportunities they provided to traders on the day:

Tuesday’s Runners, Wednesday’s Watchlist

Tuesday’s Twin Targets:  

As we were mentioning in yesterday morning’s premarket report, we’re pretty thin on earnings reports from big name companies with multi-billion dollar market caps, which are typically our favorite catalysts for the kind of intraday activity that is useful to daytraders. This relative dry period will unfortunately persist until the back end of October, but, as we did yesterday, we’ll continue to hash out whatever remaining targets look best on any given morning.

Yesterday we formed a pair of potential plays, the APOG 10/20 $50-55 Calls and the DAVA 10/20 $45 Puts, and they both exhibited some nice moves for us on the day, with a double-bagger coming out of both chains. Here’s what we were working with:

APOG 10/20 $50-55 Calls
$50:
 1.70-2.50 (+47%)
$55: .05-.30 (+100%)
_____

DAVA 10/20 $45 Puts

$45: 15-.30 (+100%).
