Winning Wednesday, New Big Name Earnings Plays

A Winning Wednesday:  

We continued to make our job look easy on  Wednesday, once again offering up a chunky slate of potential options ideas in our morning report. He formulated possible targets in five options chains, and met with some very nice results for the day.  Of course, a nice selection of daily earnings reporters always helps with that. In case some of our readers hadn’t picked up on that yet, we love using the volatility that results when these megacap companies drop their reports. We’ve got another nice calendar for this morning as well.

As for yesterday’s five targets, all of which posted good intraday moves, we had the TOL Weekly $76 Calls, the URBN Weekly $35-36 Calls, the ADI Weekly $167.50-165 Puts, the WSM Weekly $125-126 Calls, and the LANC Weekly $180-175 Puts.

Tuesday’s Movers, Today’s Fresh Plays

Recapping Yesterday’s Runners:  

We ventured potential options trading ideas for five chains in our premarket report yesterday morning, and at this point it should come as little surprise that we managed to root out intraday runners in all but of those plays, and we had to toss the fifth only for a technical error in our newsletter. We have been on a great success streak lately and we genuinely hope our efforts have, at best, made some folks some money, and at the very least, helped some people understand the world of possibilities offered by options daytrading.

Our winning targets for the session were the SPY 08/22 $440-441 Calls, the FN 09/15 $140-145 Calls, the LOW Weekly $220-225 Calls, the BIDU Weekly $128-130 Calls. The nature of their intraday moves and total potential gains for traders were as follows:
