Wednesday Review, New Ideas for Today

Wednesday’s Gainers:

Our midweek report yielded some pretty positive results for us yesterday, and while the potential gains weren’t quite as large as we are typically shooting for, and used to achieving, they were still very respectable, and all of our suggested targets posted some level of intraday gains for us. We can’t get mad at a 3-for-3 outing, so we’ll chalk it up as a solid trading day.

Our daily interests were the CALM 10/20 $45-40 Puts, the RPM 10/20 $95 Calls, and the HELE Weekly $108-106 Puts, and these were the moves they recorded on the session:

Options Recaps, Fresh Possibilities

A Good Day for Puts:  

It was a challenging day for the markets yesterday, as they experienced quite the bloodbath, and that did not bode particularly well for some of our bullish ideas, but fortunately, we had some bears on the docket as well and saw some very nice moves in those. Just the latest example of why we typically try to include a mixed bag of ideas as much as we can.

Our puts from yesterday were the UNFI 10/20 $15 Puts and the THO 10/20 $90 Puts, with the TSLA Weekly $245-242.50 Puts from Monday’s report tacking on some new highs for us as well. So the figures below represent yesterday’s activity on UNFI and THO, while the TSLA numbers reflect a two-day swing:
