Tuesday Review, 3 Fresh Options Ideas

Reviewing Tuesday’s Ideas:

Things went pretty well in terms of the possible options trading targets in our premarket report yesterday morning. There were a pair of quick-strike ideas based on earnings reporters, and a couple of longer-term swing trades with expirations next month, one of which posted some decent intraday moves right out of the gate. Both of the shorter term plays produced solid results as well.

Those targets were the PVH 04/19 $110-105 Puts, the PAYX 04/19 $120-115 Puts, and the SNOW 05/10 $175-180 Calls. Here were the trading ranges and total possible percentage gains in each of them for the day:

PVH 04/19 $110-105 Puts
$110
: 2.30-6.37 (+177%)
$105: .35-4.10 (+1071%)
_____

PAYX 04/19 $120-115 Puts
$120: 1.16-2.21 (+90%)
$115: .29-.60 (+107%)

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%)
_____

SGML 04/19 $13-14 Calls
$13
: 1.25-1.80 (+44%)
$14: .80-1.30 (+62%)
_____

CAR 04/05 $118-120 Calls
$118
: 3.20-8.32 (+191%)
$119: 3.10-5.10 (+64%)
$120: 2.69-5.60 (+108%)
_____

: 2.15-6.00 (+179%)
$115: .60-5.00 (+733%)
$116: 1.80-4.00 (+122%)


Fresh Options Ideas:

We’ve got some potential earnings plays in PVH and PAYX this morning, as well as a couple of longer term recovery play possibilities with SNOW, whose CEO recently snapped up $5M at the bottom, and IRON, which tanked dramatically on some unfavorable news.

PVH 04/19 $110-105 Puts
PAYX 04/19 $120-115 Puts
SNOW 05/10 $175-180 Calls
IRON 05/17 $40-45 Calls
