5 Big Ideas to Finish Out the Trading Week

Thursday Review:

It was another good day for us on Thursday, keeping up a solid run we’ve been having this week with a vast majority of the picks issued. In yesterday’s premarket report, we went with three possibilities from the morning’s earnings calendar, and from all three we saw some pretty nice intraday upswings. Things should play similarly today, as we’ve got another big slate of earnings reporters in the calendar.

Yesterday’s runners were the CAT Weekly $350-347.50 Puts, the HON Weekly $195-200 Calls, and the META Weekly $425-417.50 Puts. Here were the best moves we witnessed in those plays for the session::

CAT Weekly $350-347.50 Puts

: 11.59-18.30 (+58%)
$347.50: 7.01-9.55 (+36%)

Recapping Wednesday’s Movers, 3 New Targets

Wednesday’s Winners:

We fared decently on Wednesday, with two-thirds of our potential options ideas stemming from earnings in our premarket report registering solid intraday moves in a positive direction. Given that we typically rely upon big name companies dropping their earnings report for the bulk of our interests, things have gotten slightly thin this week. From the looks of the earnings calendar, this earnings dry period should persist only until the last week of this month.

As for yesterday’s movers, we had the CALM 04/19 $60-65 Calls, and the PLAY 04/19 $65-70 Calls, both produce some good intraday opportunities. Here’s how their sessions played out:

CALM 04/19 $60-65 Calls
$60
: 2.35-3.70 (+57%)
$62.50: 1.30-2.10 (+61%)
$65: .55-1.10 (+100%)
_____

PLAY 04/19 $65-70 Calls
$65: 3.30-5.90 (+79%)
$70: 1.05-2.80 (+167%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
LEVI 04/19 $20-21 Calls
CAG Weekly $30-31 Calls
MNMD 04/19 $12 Calls


Integrated Cannabis Solutions Inc. (OTCMKT:IGPK) – Recap:

We also wanted to give a quick little update on the performance of IGPK over the past couple weeks. We had this stock in our extended watchlist from our report on 03/19, and have since observed a stellar run from a low of .0021 that day, to yesterday’s new high of .0143. That works out to an excellent upswing of 581%
