Tuesday’s Runners, 4 Fresh Ideas

Good Start to the Short Week:

We got things off to a pretty good start on this holiday-shortened week, despite only formulating a couple of possible options plays for our readers. The two targets that we did highlight in our premarket report, certainly put up some very solid numbers across the board, with multibag gain potential in each set of contracts mentioned.

Those were the NVDA Weekly $547.50-550 Calls, and the GS Weekly $377.50-382.50 Calls, and and here were the intraday upswings they posted for Tuesday’s session:

NVDA Weekly $547.50-550 Calls
$547.50: 9.54-22.70 (+140%)
$550: 7.95-20.65 (+160%)
_____

GS Weekly $377.50-382.50 Calls
$377.50: 3.63-8.75 (+141%)
$380: 2.35-7.13 (+203%)
$382.50: 1.73-5.40 (+212%)

Fresh Options Ideas:
SPY 01/17 $474-473 Puts*
NVDA Weekly $562.50-565 Calls
SCHW Weekly $64-62.50 Puts

We also want to enter a potential longer-term play on Spirit Airlines into the mix, which is getting crushed after a judge blocked its merger with Jet Blue. Even if it continues to fall a bit, we’re taking the position that a snap-back may occur shortly thereafter, so we’re going to track the SAVE 02/16 $5.00-7.50 Calls in the days and weeks ahead.

*Only experienced traders should attempt to trade options contracts on their day of expiration

More Thousand Percent Gainers!

More Thousand-Plus Percentage Gainers:

We really closed out last week in the best way possible, reporting the huge multi-thousand percent gainers we scored on Thursday, and offering up a selection of fresh ideas for Friday’s session in that same premarket report. Our fantastic success in options trading ideas persisted with those targets, with all of them posting multibag gains, and two out of three recording still more gains over a thousand percent!

Specifically, we are referring to the SNAP Weekly $33-36 Calls, the U Weekly $99-102 Calls, and the F Weekly $19.50-18.50 Puts. Both of the sets of calls were the major runners on the day, with a little help from another bullish session for the markets in general.

Here are the intraday moves and total possible profits that could have been banked off of those ideas:

SNAP Weekly $33-36 Calls
$33: .52-7.28 (+1300%)
$34: .43-6.02 (+1300%)
$35: .34-5.60 (+1547%)
$36: .29-4.60 (+1486%)

U Weekly $99-102 Calls
$99: 1.00-10.05 (+905%)
$100: .82-10.92 (+1232%)
$101: .74-9.33 (+1161%)
$102: .71-8.95 (+1160%)
_____

F Weekly $19.50-18.50 Puts
$19.50: .69-1.99 (+188%)
$19: .51-1.48 (+190%)
$18.50: .20-1.00 (+400%)

TSN 02/18 $95-97.50 Calls
PTON Weekly $29-32 Calls

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Options Review & More

Options Update

Spirit Airlines, Inc. SAVE

On Wednesday, we identified a pair of SAVE options contracts as potential swing-trade candidates, specifically referring to the January 15th $40 and $45 Calls, and over the course of the session and-a-half since then, they’ve made quite a bit of progress. From Wednesday’s lows to Thursday’s highs, we’ve already seen upswings of 48% in the $40’s (2.90-4.30) and 93% in the $45’s (.70-1.35).

With more than two weeks until their expiration and SAVE shares still trading in the appropriate range, we’ll continue to keep a lookout for possible swing-trade chances from this particular options idea.

______

Celgene Corp. CELG

Despite the decreased activity during the short week prior to the holiday break, we managed to spot some nice intraday swings from CELG options. We were on the trail of CELG Weekly $116-120 Calls starting on Wednesday, and after providing multi-bag gain opportunities on that day, they continued to produce during Thursday’s short session.

The $119’s and $120 were both still close enough to the money to yield significant moves over the half-day with the $119’s surging 77% from 2.12-3.75, and $120’s making an impressive 204% run from .97-2.95.

Chimerix, Inc. CMRX

CMRX set off our cliff-diver alarms this morning after shares plummeted more than 75% in premarket trading based on the clinical failure of one of the company’s late-stage trial drugs.

Whenever we see something like this unfold, our immediate instinct is to wait for the dust to settle, then strike as the rebound occurs. Knee-jerk selloffs of this magnitude don’t come along every day, but when they have in the past, we’ve almost always seen some measure of a recovery.

We’ll place CMRX on watch for such an event, provided it can hold at or above the $7-level moving forward.

Patriot National, Inc. PN

PN is another stock that was recently hammered back, and its own recovery is already in effect. In addition to insider buying in recent months and coming off of recent lows on the chart, the company announced a significant share repurchase to the tune of $20M this morning (View PR) that will avoid dilution from a previously announced private placement. We’ll be monitoring the stock for the possibility of a protracted recovery as we kick another short trading week.
