Another Week of Solid Options Winners

Another Perfect Day for Options:

We scored major points with yesterday’s earnings plays, of which there were several. We took a stab at four separate ideas, and came out with intraday runners all the way across the board, continuing what has been a fantastic week of options trading opportunities. The markets themselves put up a mixed bag performance yesterday, but ran hard out of the opening gate and helped give our targets a push in the right direction.

Our areas of focus for the session were the DIS Weekly $120-123 Calls, the BROS Weekly $46-48 Calls, the BAM 08/19 $50-55 Calls, and the SPY 08/12 $424-425 Calls. They all performed rather well on the day with the following moves and total possible intraday gains:
