COIN Puts Blast Off & More

Options Review: 

It was a mixed bag sort of a day for the markets yesterday, as everything traveled up in the morning and came down in the afternoon. We had options ideas on both side of the tracks which managed to produce some very nice intraday gain opportunities for us. Typically we try to select targets that we feel have a solid chance of providing the kind of volatility needed to facilitate big moves in a short time frame, and that’s why we usually stick to companies that have untraded-upon earnings.

Our earnings plays that rattled off big moves yesterday were the EA Weekly $111-113 Calls and the COIN Weekly $65-55 Puts. In the case of the COIN targets. based on this morning’s premarket activity we would expect to see even more of an increase today over the figures you’ll see below from yesterday’s session:

EA Weekly $111-113 Calls

 4.60-13.65 (+197%)

Big Time Options Movers: 

We are cruising right along on the options front as we head through the midweek. We always seem to manage finding single-session, multi-bag opportunities, and this week has been no different whatsoever, We’ve seen a lot of good volatility over these couple of days, which is a quick strike trader’s best friend.

The big winner off of yesterday’s premarket report ended up being BABA, which we had flagged with the BABA Weekly $110-113 Calls. Additionally, the PDD Weekly $44-46 Calls that we signaled on Monday continued their rise and took it to the next level, with one set of contracts even breaching that elusive 1000% mark.

Getting Back on Track for a Fresh Trading Week

New Options Highs: 

First thing’s first, to start off this fresh trading week we’d like to apologize for the lack of a newsletter on Friday morning. We have only missed a couple of trading days in our entire history, and this time a power outage at our offices prevented us from doing our normal work, but we’re back in the saddle fully powered up and ready for another solid week of stock and options speculation!

So what we’re going to do before we hop right back on track, is go over the new highs that our options ideas from Wednesday morning registered to close things out on Friday, and then we’ll jump in with some fresh options ideas for today. As you can see in Wednesday’s report, we were tracking the YY Weekly $29-32 Calls, the BABA Weekly $85-90 Calls, and the DKNG 06/17 $20 Calls.

With the exception of the YY $29’s, we got new highs in all of these plays on Friday, so these figures represent the total possible gains in a two-day swing in these targets: 

YY Weekly $29-32 Calls
