A Terrific Tuesday, FIVE Fresh Ideas

Tuesday’s Big Runners:

The flow of big name earnings reporters returned yesterday, and with it came three potential options trading ideas for our premarket report. Thanks in part to another strong day for the markets, all three of those plays could have worked in traders’ favor in a big way. We have another huge earnings load being dumped for today, so we would expect to see this exciting activity persist as we cruise through this midweek.

Yesterday’s earnings-related runners were the RTX Weekly $87-88 Calls, the UAL Weekly $39.50-40.50 Calls, and the GE Weekly $130-129 Puts, and they exhibited the following intraday moves on the session:

RTX Weekly $87-88 Calls

Solid Start to the Week, 3 Fresh Plays

Recap for Monday’s Report:

The week got off to a pretty good start on Monday, despite a brief lull in the flow of big time earnings reporters. We had signaled interest in some SPY Calls as well as a couple of longer-term looks that we feel could have potential in the days and weeks ahead, in our premarket report. The SPY performed quite well, and one of the two February ideas produced immediate positive intraday results.

Those two target sets were the SPY 01/22 $482-483 Calls, and the PBF 02/16 $43-44 Calls. , and in addition to their daily performances, we also have some nice new highs to report on the SAVE 02/16 $5.00-7.50 Calls we’ve been tracking since last Wednesday.

Friday’s Rippers, 3 New Ideas

Fantastic Friday Finish:

Things really could not have gone much better for us on Friday to close out the short trading week. We had highlighted potential options plays in three chains and got awfully good results from each of the posted ideas in our premarket report for the day. Our 2024 calendar year has been exceptional thus far, with very nearly everything we touch turning to potential gold.

The ideas that we had hashed out for Friday’s session were the SPY 01/19 $478-480 Calls, the TRV Weekly $200-210 Calls, and the SLB Weekly $48-49 Calls, and here were the intraday upswings each of those contract sets recorded on the day:

SPY 01/19 $478-480 Calls
$478: .63-4.71 (+648%)
$479: .33-3.78 (+1045%)
$480: .15-2.83 (+1787%)
_____

TRV Weekly $200-210 Calls
$200: 6.96-11.80 (+69%)
$210: .05-1.90 (+3700%)
_____

SLB Weekly $48-49 Calls
$48: 1.13-2.43 (+115%)
$48.50: .76-1.81 (+138%)
$97: .46-1.36 (+195%)

We also have an update for the longer-term SAVE Calls that we initially highlighted as a possible recovery play in our report this past Wednesday morning. Essentially the stock performed exactly as we said we believed it would, coming down a little lower before bouncing back, and giving us the kind of gains we were looking for. We might have expected it to take slightly longer than it did, but our vision came to fruition by the end of what was a really great short trading week.

SAVE 02/16 $5.00-7.50 Calls
$5.00: .68-2.60 (+282%)
$7.50: .25-1.46 (+484%)

Fresh Options Ideas:

Without any interesting earnings reporters dropping figures this morning, we’re just going to go with a potential play on the SPY, and then we’ve identified a couple of longer-term potential plays to keep an eye on in the days and weeks ahead.

SPY 01/22 $482-483 Calls*
PBF 02/16 $43-44 Calls
NNI 02/16 $85-90 Calls

Our winning targets for the session were the SPY 01/18 $473-475 Calls, the TSM Weekly $109-111 Calls, and the DFS Weekly $96-97.50 Calls, and those SPY $475 Calls were the very clear favorite, as they put up some truly astonishing figures, to the tune of more than a SIXTY-BAGGER in the $475’s:

SPY 01/18 $473-475 Calls
$473: .44-4.00 (+809%)
