Options Ideas, Potential Swing Trade

Options Review: 

This morning, we’re swinging back around to the fresh options ideas we offered up in Wednesday morning’s premarket report. With the markets getting choppy over the tech selloff, not to mention the US airstrikes in Syria, our timing in going bearish on SQ and TJX was fortuitous.

Our specific short targets were the SQ Weekly $250-245 Puts and the TJX Weekly $69.50-68 Puts, and in both cases, we turned up multibag upswings to finish out another solid trading week. Here were the ranges and total possible gains on those contracts subsequent to Wednesday’s alerts:

SQ Weekly $250-245 Puts
$250:
 7.54-26.01 (+245%)
$247.50: 5.95-22.00 (+270%)
$245: 4.45-20.58 (+362%)

TJX Weekly $69.50-68 Puts
$69.50: .50-3.75 (+650%)
$69: .37-2.72 (+635%)
$68.50: .45-1.95 (+333%)
$68: .21-3.74 (+1680%)

*Please do not attempt to trade options with a weekly expiration on Friday unless you are an advanced level trader with access to disposable funds! 


EHang Holdings Ltd. EH

We also want to quickly throw up a signal on an interesting Chinese Aerospace & Defense play, EH, which looks attractive from a technical standpoint.

The stock has been feeling out a bottom after consolidating off of an epic run, and could go into recovery relatively soon. Provided EH can hold at or above the $30-40 range on any further pullbacks, we would like it for a possible swing trade candidate.

Bitcoin Related Options Runners

We began the week by tracking bitcoin related stocks RIOT and MARA, and the options targets we formulated in each of them. On Monday morning we started with the RIOT Weekly $27-28 Calls and the MARA Weekly $26.50-28 Calls.

After solid success with those, on Tuesday morning we rolled up to include the $34-36 Calls in both chains on our watchlist. What unfolded from there has been a week filled with solid gain opportunities. Below, we will highlight the trading ranges and total potential gains on all of these targets through yesterday’s close.

RIOT is up considerably more than MARA in the premarket, however, considering the activity we’re observing, we would expect to see these figures increase today as we close out another excellent options trading week.  

RIOT Weekly Calls
$27:
 1.56-18.40 (+1079%)
$27.50: 1.50-18.32 (+1121%)
$28: 1.35-18.70 (+1285%)

$34: 1.37-12.43 (+807%)
$35: .99-11.50 (+1061%)
$36: .99-10.50 (+960%)
______

MARA Weekly Calls 
$26.50: 1.91-14.00 (+633%)
$27: 1.48-13.10 (+785%)
$27.50: 1.51-12.75 (+744%)
$28: 1.43-12.50 (+774%)

$34: .76-7.10 (+834%)
$35: .81-6.29 (+676%)
$36: .57-5.52 (+868%)

Just as we have all week, we’ll be looking to stay on the money by including some higher strikes on our watchlist, with the RIOT Weekly $46-48 Calls and the MARA Weekly $38-39 Calls.

Green Energy Stocks, Form-4’s, Fresh Options Ideas

Alternative Energy Focus:

At the end of last week, we indicated that we had an interesting alternative energy play to look at this morning. Instead of one, we went ahead and unearthed a trio of companies in the space. In addition to the US rejoining the Paris Climate Agreement, it would seem likely that further measures toward curtailing pollution are definitely on the horizon, out of necessity.

We expect to be focusing more and more on “green” plays as time goes on, and society is forced into finding more sustainable and renewable ways to serve its high energy demand. From waste-to-energy, to solar, and everything in between, these are the types of ideas that will endure long after the last drop of fossil fuel has been burned. Today, we’ve selected a variety of different alternative energy stocks trading at very different price points on the OTC Market to spotlight.

Renewable Energy & Power, Inc. RBNW
Last Traded: .0007

Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. ASTI
:Last Traded: .0177

Clean Energy Technologies, Inc. CETY 
Last Traded: .093

We expect to continue building a watchlist of interesting clean and renewable energy companies going forward, as the need for them grows in an increasingly energy hungry world.


Athira Pharma, Inc. ATHA 

We also caught ATHA this morning as a stock with a solid setup on the chart, along with some recent insider buying near its current bottom. Just a month a ago the stock was trading close to $35, and has recently been showing signs of a bottom bounce down here in the $21-22 area.

In addition to a topside gap on the chart, ATHA is currently seeing its MACD converging for a bullish cross, so we’re definitely going to put this one on watch.
