Earnings-Related Options Ideas & More

Monday’s Options Review:

We kicked off the week in solid form in our premarket report yesterday morning, despite lacking a large slate of earnings reporters off of which to base our daily ideas. All three of the quick-strike options targets we offered up for the day turned in winning cards. We had a much longer term with a June expiration as well, but we can come back for those at a later date.

In the meantime, our fresh targets to kick things off on Monday morning were the SPY 05/15 $411-412 Calls, the MNDY Weekly $145-155 Calls, and the SHAK Weekly $66-67 Calls and here are the numbers thy put up for us on the session:

SPY 05/15 $411-412 Calls
$411: .59-2.48 (+320%)
$412: .28-1.58 (+464%)

MNDY Weekly $145-155 Calls
$145: 4.00-9.40 (+135%)
$150: 2.50-6.00 (+140%)

4 Fresh Ideas for a New Trading Week

Friday Options Recap:

It was a little bit of a subdued finish to what was an otherwise fairly exciting week of trading on Friday. We had a limited slate of earnings reporters on the day, but still formed a few ideas that managed to make some early moves. The percentage gains weren’t quite on a level that would get us overexcited, but all contracts involved did make reasonable moves, with one lone exception.

Those ideas that we were tracking were the SPB 05/19 $65-70 Calls, the TSLA Weekly $175-177.50 Calls, and the SPY 05/12 $412.50-413 Calls. Here’s how their early positive movement played out in terms of total possible gains for quick traders:

SPB 05/19 $65-70 Calls
$70: .83-1.69 (+104%)
_____

TSLA Weekly $175-177.50 Calls
$175: .36-.60 (+67%)

We’ve also been tracking the IFF 05/19 $95-90 Puts since our report from this past Tuesday the 9th, and IFF continued to decline all week, leading to some really nice new highs in those targets:

IFF 05/19 $95-90 Puts

Winning Picks from Thursday, New Ideas

Thursdays Runners:

We were in really good shape following yesterday morning’s premarket report, in which we included five earnings-related options trading ideas. It was a heck of a day, as four out of those five potential target sets yielded the chance at some serious multi-bag intraday gain opportunities. It was a mixed bag of a session for the markets in general and it didn’t seem to hurt our chances, with all of the positive activity in our tracked plays.

Those targets that took off running during the session were the JD Weekly $35.50-36.50 Calls, the U Weekly $31-32 Calls, the TTD Weekly $66-68 Calls, and the DIS Weekly $98-96 Puts. The breakdown of the total possible profits they provided on the day were as follows:
