Winning Options Review: 

We hope everyone had a pleasant long weekend, but we’re certain you’re as ready as we are to jump back into another opportunity-filled trading week!

On Friday morning we signaled fresh ideas in the chains of both the SPY and SPCE, specifically the SPY Weekly $430-432 Calls as well as the SPCE Weekly $51-53 Calls as well as updating our readers on the longer-term targets for TBIO that we placed on watch on June 21st, the TBIO 08/20 $17.50-20 Calls.

We’re going to start things off today by going over the single session gains made by Friday morning’s targets as well as the continued progress of our TBIO interests. Those ranges and total possible profits were as follows:

SPY Weekly $430-432 Calls
$430: 1.34-4.11 (+207%)

Extended-Term Options Plays Paying Off

Reviewing Winning Ideas: 

We typically focus more on options expiring at the end of a given week, there are certainly occasions when we target those with expiration dates weeks, or sometimes even months into the future. Which way it falls is often determined by the setup and conditions in which we find a play.

Today, we’re going to go over the recent moves made by a few of the longer-term options ideas to grace our watchlist recently. We signaled the DRI 07/16 $140-145 Calls in our report last Thursday morning, June 24th, and just a few sessions prior on the morning of the 21st we alerted the TBIO 08/20 $17.50-20 Calls and the MRNA 08/20 $195-210 Calls.

Take a look at the fantastic multi-bag upswings that we’ve witnessed in the short time we’ve been tracking these options:

DRI 07/16 $140-145 Calls
$140: 2.71-8.65 (+219%)
145: 1.10-4.60 (+318%)
_____

TBIO 08/20 $17.50-20 Calls
$17.50: 2.88-10.15 (+252%)
$20: 1.65-8.40 (+409%)
_____

MRNA 08/20 $195-210 Calls
$195: 23.29-48.35 (+108%)
$200: 18.07-51.00 (+182%)
$210: 13.58-41.00 (+202%)

SPY Weekly $430-432 Calls
SPCE Weekly $51-53 Calls


Marin Software, Inc. MRIN – Recap:

Like a couple of the above-mentioned plays, we signaled MRIN in our report on the morning of June 24th on the basis of the stock alone. We didn’t even need options to leverage with this play as it has continued to soar to new highs.

Yesterday MRIN hit 21.68, which from our observed low of 2.56 registers as an increase 747% of in just a week’s time for this NASDAQ-listed stock!

TBIO Options Update & More

Translate Bio, Inc. TBIO – Update: 

We were just mentioning our successful MRNA calls from Monday morning in yesterday’s report. In that same report to kick off this week, we also formulated an extended-term options idea on TBIO. After some solid sessions have gone on the books this week, we’re swinging back around to check into our total possible gains.

We targeted the TBIO 08/20 $17.50-20 Calls, and on the strength of the stock running from 18.02-22.49 (+25%) over the span of the past three sessions, we have seen some pretty solid runs.

Here are the trading ranges and total possible gains that were made available by these TBIO Calls:  

TBIO 08/20 $17.50-20 Calls
$65: 2.88-5.20 (+81%)
$70: 1.65-4.00 (+142%)

Meanwhile, with plenty of time remaining until expiration and plenty of upside potential on the TBIO chart, we’ll continue to track these targets in the days and weeks ahead.


Fresh Options Ideas:
CCIV Weekly $25-26 Calls
DRI 07/16 $140-145 Calls
ACN Weekly $292.50-297.50 Calls

Longer-Term Options Plays & More

Smith & Wesson, Adobe Options Review: 

As usual on Friday morning we formulated some fresh options ideas for the day, and just like usual, we met with some serious intraday gain opportunities. We had some targets in the SWBI Weekly $20 Calls and the ADBE Weekly $555-570 Calls and found success across the board.

In both cases the daily activity on the stock was enough to propel our designated targets to some serious moves and gain chances for our readers. SWBI saw a big move that was good enough to record it as the 6th highest gainer on the big boards for the session and it scored us a four-bagger on our tracked contract set!

Here were the total possible profits that were on the table for anyone who caught our report:

SWBI Weekly $20 Calls
$20: .70-3.51 (+401%)
_____

ADBE Weekly $555-570 Calls
$555: 
5.30-12.92 (+144%)
$560: 2.02-8.20 (+306%)
$565: .43-3.53 (+721%)
$570: .86-2.02 (+135%)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: TBIO Recap & More

Transgenomic, Inc. TBIO

After noticing the stock’s significant premarket bullishness, we placed TBIO in yesterday morning’s report, and it’s a good thing that we did. It responded with a meteoric rise on the day en route to a very strong close.

TBIO traded in a daily range from a low of .67 up as high as 1.27, making intraday gains of up 90% possible, and the activity came on a torrent of volume, in the neighborhood of more than 37X the 3-month average volume.

TBIO continued to plow upward in post-market trading, and this morning has changed hands for as much as 1.64 a share in the premarket. Given the present circumstances, we wouldn’t be at all surprised to see the stock attain new highs once again today.


Puration, Inc. PURA

We were also keeping an eye on PURA, listing it in yesterday’s watchlist, and the stock recorded a modest yet solid session. On roughly eight times the monthly average, it traded up from a low of  .037 to .0482, a 30% increase.

PURA has been on a fairly steady upswing for most of this month so far, yesterday’s activity just being an extension of that pattern, so we’ll be on the lookout for a continuation of that current trend.


Ampliphi Biosciences Corp. APHB

We want to signal APHB as a possible bottom-bounce play this morning. Between it just showing a flicker of life off of recent relative lows, and the fact that it was trading at triple its current value just three months ago, we definitely want to keep this one on watch.

We’ve included a snap of the current chart, which illustrates what we’re talking about. This has the potential to become a solid recovery play in the days and/or weeks ahead.
