Options Recaps, Fresh Possibilities

A Good Day for Puts:

It was a challenging day for the markets yesterday, as they experienced quite the bloodbath, and that did not bode particularly well for some of our bullish ideas, but fortunately, we had some bears on the docket as well and saw some very nice moves in those. Just the latest example of why we typically try to include a mixed bag of ideas as much as we can.

Our puts from yesterday were the UNFI 10/20 $15 Puts and the THO 10/20 $90 Puts, with the TSLA Weekly $245-242.50 Puts from Monday’s report tacking on some new highs for us as well. So the figures below represent yesterday’s activity on UNFI and THO, while the TSLA numbers reflect a two-day swing:

UNFI 10/20 $15 Puts
$15: .13-1.60 (+1131%)
_____

THO 10/20 $90 Puts
$90: .85-3.50 (+312%)
_____

TSLA Weekly $245-242.50 Puts

5 Fresh Ideas to Close Out the Week

Solid Moves on Thursday:

Things proceeded fairly well following our premarket report yesterday morning, wherein we flagged four possible options targets for ourselves and our readers. As it turned out, three of them made solid daytrading candidates, with the fourth registering nominal activity. The odds worked out quite in our favor and got us back on a good track.

The three runners were the FDX Weekly $260-265 Calls, the KBH Weekly $47.50-46 Puts, and the SPY 09/22 $432-433 Calls and here’s what they did for us:

FDX Weekly $260-265 Calls
$260: 1.82-4.21 (+131%)
$262.50: .88-2.56 (+191%)
$265: .38-1.29 (+239%)
_____

KBH Weekly $47.50-46 Puts
$47.50: .79-1.25 (+58%)
$47: .50-1.05 (+110%)

_____

SPY 09/22 $432-433 Calls
$432: 2.52-3.42 (+36%)
$433: 1.90-2.70 (+50%)

In the case of the SPY Calls, which you may have noticed were today’s expiration, we’re going to continue monitoring as we believe there’s a good chance we see some new highs.

4 Fresh Options Plays & More

Wednesday Review:

It was a rough outing yesterday due largely in part to a horrendous response to the Fed meeting. Things remained mostly level until 2PM, and thereafter went into absolute freefall. As a result, just one of the two ideas we formulated for yesterday’s premarket report bore immediate results. Not an ideal set of circumstances or outcome, but we press forward as always!

As for our target that did prevail, we were looking at the GIS 10/20 $65-67.50 Calls, and here are the modest yet respectable intraday moves we saw out of those:

GIS 10/20 $65-67.50 Calls
$65: 1.37-2.04 (+49%)
$67.50: .39-.75 (+92%)

Fresh Options Ideas:
FDX Weekly $260-265 Calls
KBH Weekly $47.50-46 Puts
SPLK Weekly $140-143 Calls
SPY 09/22 $432-433 Calls

Bluejay Diagnostics Inc. (NASDAQ:BJDX) – Recap:

We also had a decent little mover jump off of yesterday’s extended watchlist, as BJDX underwent a gap-and-go scenario. The stock ran from a daily low of 4.20 and shares ended up changing hands for as much as 5.38. That works out to an intraday run of 28%

Monday’s Runners, Pair of Longer-Term Plays

Good Start to the Week:

We got the fresh trading week off to a pretty good start yesterday morning. Despite having no big name earnings reporters to work with, we floated a few ideas that flew in the face of the overall trend of the day, yet still managed to log some serious intraday upswings. Unfortunately, we’re just entering another dry spell for earnings, and as usual, we’ll get along however we sit fit on the day-to-day.

As for yesterday’s targets, we were looking at the TSLA Weekly $277.50-272.50 Puts, the NVDA Weekly $435-430 Puts, and the SPY 09/18 $444-443 Puts, and here are the kinds of intraday runs they established on the session:

TSLA Weekly $277.50-272.50 Puts
$277.50: 9.80-14.80 (+51%)
$275: 7.80-12.90 (+65%)
$272.50: 6.40-11.05 (+73%)

$435: 4.60-6.62 (+44%)
