Keeping the Options Train Rolling

Big Name Earners Yield Solid Gains:

It was a big day for options plays on Friday, when we put forth a full slate of potential earnings-related ideas in our premarket report. With the exception of some longer-term targets expiring next month, all four of our short range formulations made some serious moves for us on the day.

Our designated areas of interest for Friday were the AXP Weekly $155-157.50 Calls, the SLB Weekly $34-35 Calls, the SNAP Weekly $13-11.50 Puts, and the VZ Weekly $47-45.50 Puts. It was great way to cap off an immensely exciting trading week, and a continuation of the routinely successful run of plays that we always seem to root out for our morning newsletter which, in our opinion, is the best no-nonsense, totally free source of options daytrading insights and ideas on the planet.

Here were the excellent opportunities Friday’s ventures brought to us:

Friday 4 Winners, Today’s 4 Fresh Plays

Friday’s Options Gainers:

We closed out the trading week on Friday morning in grand fashion, highlighting a 4-pack of fresh earnings-related options ideas for the day. Despite the markets sliding back and three out of the four being bullish ideas, we scored solid gain opportunities in everything we were focused on, which is fairly typical around here.

The targets that we were interested in tracking in Friday’s premarket report were the KMB Weekly $130-134 Calls, the SLB Weekly $40.50-41 Calls, the HCA Weekly 245-237.50 Puts, and the SNAP Weekly $29-30 Calls. As we said, every idea we were tracking produced several chances for really nice daily gains, including a ten and twelve-bagger on those SLB Calls, as well as a nine and thirteen-bagger in the SNAP Calls!
