Thursday’s Thunder, 5 New Trading Ideas

A Thunderous Thursday Performance:

We fared quite well with our selection of possible options plays in yesterday morning’s premarket report. Out of the six potential targets we listed, five of them produced significant intraday gain opportunities for ourselves and our readers. That is an extremely impressive result, in what has been another excellent week of options daytrading. Today’s earnings calendar promises to provide another solid outing as we close out the week.

A Winning Wednesday, 4 New Targets

Hot Streak Continues Wednesday:

We had another really solid outing on Wednesday, continuing a run of excellent options ideas for the week. We had a triplet of potential plays in our premarket report for the day, and all of them turned in some fairly impressive performances on the day. Especially our target in the SPY, which went on a really nice intraday tear immediately following the fed meeting, and into the close.

Those ideas we were tracking were the SPY 12/13 $465 Calls, the ABM Weekly $45 Calls, and the AMD Weekly $137-139 Calls, and here are the intraday runs they logged:

Star Alliance International Corp. STAL – Update:

We’ve recently been tracking STAL closely, and on Monday morning we mentioned that we would want to see STAL hold support in the .004-.005 range to continue to hold our interest. It did just that, maintaining support at a low of .0045 on Tuesday, and running back to .0085 yesterday. That worked out to a two-day swing of 89%

C4 Therapeutics, Inc. – Recap:

 Another stock that we flagged in yesterday’s extended watchlist was CCCC, which posted an impressive intraday run on the heels of some positive phase 1 trial data, and news of an exclusive licensing agreement with pharma giant MRK. We saw a single session rip from 3.16-6.03 out of this stock, which represents a 91% upswing.
