Friday’s Big Movers, 3 New Trade Ideas

Friday’s Recap:

Our first report of the new year was a solid one for us. While it wasn’t perfection, with just three of the four possible targets we highlighted making positive runs, the moves they did make were very impressive. Especially in the case of the SPY, which recorded absolutely massive upswings. This is our last day without a good crop of big name earnings reporters to base our ideas on, so things should get even more exciting this week.

The runners from Friday’s report were the SPY 01/02 $684-686 Calls, the TSLA Weekly $450-455 Calls, and the TSM Weekly $310-312.50 Calls. This was the intraday activity they posted:

SPY 01/02 $684-686 Calls
$684: .02-.58 (+2800%)
$685: .01-.20 (+1900%)
$686: .01-.07 (+600%)
_____

TSLA Weekly $450-455 Calls
$450:
 2.94-5.76 (+96%)
$452.50: 1.88-3.98 (+112%)
$455: 1.16-2.56 (+128%)
_____

TSM Weekly $310-312.50 Calls
$310:
 2.40-11.50 (+379%)
$312.50: 1.18-9.05 (+669%)

Monday’s Runners, 4 New Potential Plays

Monday’s Options Activity:

We got things off to a good start for the week on Monday, with our premarket report containing three possible options targets, and we weren’t disappointed with the resulting activity. It was a solid way to start off what is likely to be a characteristically laid-back holiday trading season. We don’t expect to see many earnings plays until the second week of January, so we’ll be going off premarket volume and chart set-up plays until then.

Yesterday’s interests were the ABVX 01/16 $130-135 Calls, the TSLA Weekly $485-490 Calls, and the UNF Weekly $220 Weekly, and here were the best intraday runs made by each one:

ABVX 01/16 $130-135 Calls
