4 Fresh Ideas for a New Trading Week

Friday Options Recap:

It was a little bit of a subdued finish to what was an otherwise fairly exciting week of trading on Friday. We had a limited slate of earnings reporters on the day, but still formed a few ideas that managed to make some early moves. The percentage gains weren’t quite on a level that would get us overexcited, but all contracts involved did make reasonable moves, with one lone exception.

Those ideas that we were tracking were the SPB 05/19 $65-70 Calls, the TSLA Weekly $175-177.50 Calls, and the SPY 05/12 $412.50-413 Calls. Here’s how their early positive movement played out in terms of total possible gains for quick traders:

SPB 05/19 $65-70 Calls 
$70: .83-1.69 (+104%)

TSLA Weekly $175-177.50 Calls
$175:

We’ve also been tracking the IFF 05/19 $95-90 Puts since our report from this past Tuesday the 9th, and IFF continued to decline all week, leading to some really nice new highs in those targets:
