Monday Recap, 3 Possibilities

Monday’s Movers & More:

The new trading week got off to a good start for us yesterday, having had some good movers among our new options ideas for the day. Both of the near-term ideas we floated turned out really well, while the third longer-term play didn’t hash out instantly. However, as an example of why we sometimes signal contracts that don’t expire for weeks or even months, in addition to yesterday’s movers, we’re also going to highlight a previous swing trade idea that has been panning out well.

Yesterday’s runners were the TSLA Weekly $167.50-170 Calls, and the SPY 04/08 $519-520 Calls, and their daily performances are outlined below. As for the SGML 04/19 $13-14 Calls, we originally targeted  those in our report from last Monday the 1st, and the following numbers represent the total increase those contracts have seen since then.

TSLA Weekly $167.50-170 Calls

Options Recaps, 4 Fresh Potential Plays

More Options Review:

We want to open up this morning by apologizing for any confusion pertaining to the SPY Calls in yesterday’s premarket report. We mistakenly listed our targets as the $424-425 instead of the $524-525 Calls, and didn’t catch our error until it was too late. We don’t often make mistakes, but we’re quit to point it out when we do. As a result we have just a couple of yesterday’s targets to report back on, but we’ve also got some updates on previous longer-term plays that have tacked on some new highs this week.

Yesterday’s movers were the BOIL Weekly $13.50-14.50 Calls, and the SGML 04/19 $13-14 Calls. The CAR 04/05 $118-120 Calls, and the DELL 04/05 $114-116 Calls, we alerted on last Monday, and we’ll include the updated figures for those excellent week-over-week runners as well:

BOIL Weekly $13.50-14.50 Calls
$13.50
: .81-1.22 (+51%)
$14: .55-.90 (+64%)
$14.50: .37-.65 (+76%)

PAYX 04/19 $120-115 Puts
SNOW 05/10 $175-180 Calls

Reviewing Thursday’s Movers, 4 New Possibilities

Thursday’s Options Recap:

Things ended on a positive note for us on Thursday, just before we broke for the holiday weekend. In our premarket report for the day, we were looking at three potential options trading targets, and everything we came up with produced double-bag intraday runs or better. It’s always nice to end a trading week with a whole slate full of good ideas, and that was certainly the case.

We were considering the SPY 03/28 $522-523 Calls, the MLKN 04/19 $25 Puts, and the RH Weekly $325-330 Calls, and here are the figures those contracts produced on the session:

SPY 03/28 $522-523 Calls
$522
: 1.23-2.65 (+115%)
$523: .58-1.71 (+195%)
_____

MLKN 04/19 $25 Puts
$25: .80-1.65 (+106%)

RH Weekly $325-330 Calls
$325: 5.80-28.89 (+398%)
$330: 5.00-23.31 (+366%)
