Big Options Gainers, New Earnings Plays

Huge SPY Gains & More:

Yesterday’s trading session was one of extremes. The markets gapped up before dipping early, and running into the Fed meeting, after which there was another precipitous drop-off followed by a late day run into the close. It was a choppy and exciting session, and that late rally pushed the SPY Calls we highlighted in our premarket report to some major league moves.

Those potential plays were the SPY 01/04 $382-383 Calls, and we got some decent intraday push from our other set of targets, the SGH 01/20 $15-17.50 Calls as well. Here were the intraday ranges and total possible gains to be had for both ideas, as well as some new highs on the PLAY 01/20 $35-36 Calls we’ve been on since December 20th:

SPY 01/04 $382-383 Calls
$382: .17-2.24 (+1218%)

Double-Baggers Across the Board, Fresh Plays

SPY, TSLA Options Record Solid Moves:

We kicked off the holiday-shortened week yesterday morning with a couple of off-the-cuff options ideas for the SPY and TSLA with no earnings reporters to spice things up on the day. Despite a decline in the markets for most of the session, our SPY Calls recorded some notable runs early on in the day, while TSLA turned out to be a really good short.

The particular targets that we selected for monitoring in our premarket report were the SPY 01/03 $383-384 Calls, and the TSLA Weekly $120-118 Puts. Two-for-two on the first trading day of the year sets a good tone for 2023, and leaves us with high hopes for another great year. Here were the gains that were there for the taking yesterday, all of which secured double-bag status:

SPY 01/03 $383-384 Calls
$383: .46-.94 (+104%)
$384: .28-.58 (+107%)
_____

TSLA Weekly $120-118 Puts
$120: 5.55-15.60 (+181%)
$119: 5.08-14.75 (+190%)

Jasper Therapeutics, Inc. JSPR – NASDAQ Recap:

We’ve been getting some lower-priced NASDAQ plays popping off of our daily watchlists with greater frequency, even during a time of year when the OTC tends to see more activity. Yesterday morning’s standout NASDAQ runner was JSPR, which shot up 138% as it ran from a daily low of 1.60, up as high as 3.80.

New Year, New Opportunities!

Options Reviews:

We hope everyone had a Happy New Year and a pleasant long weekend, and are all set to hit the ground running. We’re ready to give everything we’ve got to make 2023 every bit as exciting as 2022, and more! We’re going to kick things off this morning by going over the performances on a couple sets of longer-term options ideas we formulated a couple of weeks ago.

From our reports on December 20th and 22nd, respectively, we’ve been tracking the PLAY 01/20 $35-36 Calls and the PAYX 01/20 $115-120 Calls. The Paychex calls in particular have posted some serious multibag gains over that time span. With still more than two weeks remaining until their expiration, both sets of ideas have made pretty good headway indeed, posting the following moves and total possible profits so far:

PLAY 01/20 $35-36 Calls
$35: 1.03-1.85 (+80%)
$36: .72-1.27 (+76%)
_____

PAYX 01/20 $115-120 Calls
$115: .92-4.03 (+338%)
$120: .33-1.65 (+400%)

SPY 01/03 $383-384 Calls

Silo Pharma, Inc. SILO – NASDAQ Recap:

We included SILO on our watchlist in Friday morning’s premarket report, and were pleased with the single session move it made from 4.64-6.56. That works out to an intraday rise of 41% which is a pretty respectable rip for a $4+ NASDAQ stock. Our extended watchlists typically contain a mix of both big board and OTC stocks.

Closing Out Another Great Trading Year, HAPPY 2023!

Today, we close the books on what has been another fantastic year of stock and options trading. 2022 came with its ups and downs, but we weathered all the storms and had plenty of days in the sun! The good far outweighed the bad, and we’re looking forward to more excitement in 2023! HERE’S WISHING A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU AND YOURS!

Cal-Maine Foods Inc. – Options Review:

This morning we’re very happy to submit our last 2022 entry with a bang, by relaying the excellent performance we got out of our single options idea in yesterday morning’s premarket report. We went bearish on CALM, and were instantly rewarded as the stock fell off of a cliff, despite a hot day for the markets as a whole.

Our targets of interest were the CALM 01/20 $60-57.50 Puts, and the multibag intraday profit chances they yielded were exceptional. Here are the intraday ranges and total possible gains they managed for us:

CALM 01/20 $60-57.50 Puts
$60: 1.85-7.30 (+295%)
$57.50: 1.25-5.30 (+324%)

Kala Pharmaceuticals, Inc. KALA – Recap:

We had just updated readers yesterday morning on KALA, which we included in Wednesday morning’s extended watchlist. The stock was surging in the premarket, and between the time of our alert at 9AM and the open, KALA hit an amazing new high of 45.70. From the 6.00 low we observed on Wednesday, that worked out to an overnight swing of 662%

Options, NASDAQ Reviews & Fresh Idea

HEICO Corporation HEI – Options Update:

This week has lived up to the stereotype of a typical holiday trading week between Christmas and the New Year. No one is reporting earnings, not much has been going on, and the opportunities have been much fewer and further between. Today we do have an update on a set of options contracts that we alerted on Tuesday of last week.

We signaled interest in the HEI 01/20 $150 Calls, and they have made a modest but respectable move for us over that time span.

HEI 01/20 $150 Calls
$150: 3.70-7.50 (+103%)

Fresh Options Idea:
CALM 01/20 $60-57.50 Puts

Kala Pharmaceuticals, Inc. KALA – Recap:

We had placed KALA on watch via yesterday morning’s extended watchlist. Our EW’s often consist of a mix of big board and OTC stocks. In this case, KALA trades on the upper exchange, and yet still managed to explode off of our list with a single-session multibag run yesterday. The stock ran from a low of 6.00 yesterday and has now touched 19.73 in premarket trading today, marking a total rise of 229%
