Tuesday’s Runners, 5 New Potential Targets

Tuesday’s Activity:

We cast a fairly narrow net with regard to our options ideas for Tuesday’s premarket report, in which we included a small slate of just three ideas. The gains from two of those three were slightly muted compared to what we’re typically after, but our SPY targets saved the day once again with some really impressive moves. It’s easily our most frequented stop on our daily options adventures, for that very good reason.

Yesterday’s results for the SPY 05/19 $736-735 Puts, the BEKE Weekly $17.50 Calls, and the HD Weekly $297.50 Puts, were as follows:

Thursday’s Plays:

We got back a good set of results for the ideas we placed on watch in Thursday’s premarket report. We signaled interest in five possible plays, and saw some good activity during the session.
