Five Fresh Plays to Close Out a Good Week

Solid Options Runners from Thursday:

While we didn’t quite get a clean sweep on our earnings related options ideas in yesterday morning’s premarket report, we did manage to find some fairly big runners in three out of the five selections we made for the day. The SPY Calls stood out, with the markets logging a seriously bullish session all day long, which facilitated some solid double bag runs, but the ideas we had in SNOW were the real winners.

The quick-strike targets that really produced for us were the SPY 08/26 $413-415 Calls, the SNOW Weekly $187.50-192.50 Calls, and the DLTR Weekly $155-150 Puts, which recorded the following intraday activity:

SPY 08/26 $413-415 Calls
