Smooth Move on the SPY, Earnings Plays & More

Flip to SPY Calls Proves Timely: 

In yesterday morning’s premarket report, just one out of the three options ideas we put forth was a quick-strike play, and that was our spur of the moment bullish take on the SPY. After multiple recent sessions of rooting out solid gain opportunities from SPY Puts (On Friday and Monday) we flipped to the other side of the fence just in time to catch yesterday’s market rally.

That led to some very nice multibag profit chances on the day from our targeted range, the SPY 06/15 $374-376 Calls. Those big-time moves were as follows:

SPY 06/15 $374-376 Calls
$374: 2.13-9.47 (+345%)
$375: 1.74-8.70 (+400%)
$376: 1.46-7.80 (+434%)

Sustained Options Success, Fresh Plays

Solid Day for Options: 

While the markets still had a down day overall yesterday, they did open higher in the morning and exhibited some good volatility and decent intraday upswings. That activity aided our daily options trading selections, which put up some nice figures, and the chance for ourselves and our readers to take advantage.

Our designated targets for the day were the ORCL Weekly $70-72.50 Calls, the COP Weekly $110-112 Calls, and the FERG Weekly $100-110 Calls. We saw positive movement out of every individual contract set in those ranges with the one exception of the FERG $100’s, which didn’t register much activity. The other nine sets produced the following gain opportunities:

ORCL Weekly $70-72.50 Calls
$70: 1.11-2.14 (+93%)
$71: .71-1.55 (+118%)
$72: .45-1.06 (+136%)
$72.50: .39-.86 (+121%)

Using the SPY to Our Advantage, 3 Fresh Ideas

SPY Puts Surge: 

Once again yesterday, the markets losses are our gains. Our lone options trading idea for the day focused upon a dim view of the SPY, and with another precipitous decline for stocks, we hit the nail right on the head. This is among the reasons why our readers see SPY plays in our newsletters on a highly regular basis, as it tends to be easier to predict the actions of the markets as a whole than it is do so the same for just one. The SPY also sees a lot of intraday volatility which can often lead to opportunities on both sides of the fence in a single session.

In terms of yesterday morning, due to a bit of a drought of earnings reporters, our premarket report contained only one idea, which was the SPY 06/13 $385-383 Puts. Those targets offered up the chance at the following really nice intraday profit chances:

 SPY 06/13 $385-383 Puts
$385: 4.24-11.01 (+160%)
$384: 3.46-10.50 (+203%)
$383: 2.84-9.67 (+240%)

Fresh Options Ideas:
ORCL Weekly $70-72.50 Calls
COP Weekly $110-112 Calls
FERG Weekly $100-110 Calls
