OTC Updates:

We recently suggested our readers pay closer attention to our daily extended watchlists, which typically include some OTC stocks to keep an eye on. This was due to the rising activity of the OTC that does tend to happen toward the end of a calendar year. We’re seeing a lot more happen on that front, so we repeat our suggestion today, and relay a couple of yesterday’s new highs on stocks in which we’ve expressed some interest.

7-Day Win Streak, Fresh Plays

Another Perfect Run:

We offered up a mixed bag in terms of bears and bulls on our list of fresh options ideas from yesterday morning’s premarket report, and the session for the markets as a whole experienced a similar kind of day. That helped out with generating the kind of volatile activity that can be a boon to day traders. Once again, we swept the board with all of our daily options targets, which goes down in the books as our 7TH consecutive trading day without a single flat prospect.

Yesterday’s ideas were the CVS Weekly $73-71 Puts, the EL 05/19 $220-210 Puts and the KHC Weekly $40-41 Calls. The KHC Calls were definitely the big standouts for the day, but there were some really nice moves in the other plays as well. Here’s how it all shook out for the session:
