Options Keep Winning, New Ideas

Options Review: 

In yesterday morning’s report, we followed up Friday’s flawless options interests with another clean sweep of our board. The first half of the session featured quite a bit of volatility for the markets as a whole, allowing for some pretty nice intraday swings for our designated options targets. NKE and TCOM ran into their post-market earnings. NKE beat on earnings but slipped on sales, while TCOM looks in good shape after China loosened its COVID travel restrictions. We’ll be monitoring those closely today again.

The plays we signaled interest in tracking yesterday were the NKE Weekly $113-115 Calls, the TCOM 07/15 $24-26 Calls, and the SPY 06/27 $389-391 Calls. All of those experienced noteworthy moves, and additionally, the DRI 07/15 $120-125 Calls that we flagged this past Thursday also extended its run and posted new highs, which you’ll find below. The overall moves and total possible profits so far on those plays amount to the following:

NKE Weekly $113-115 Calls
$113:
 3.00-3.80 (+27%)
$114: 2.70-3.30 (+22%)

OTC Recap – Verus International, Inc. VRUS:

We try to keep up with the many stocks we tag in our daily extended watchlists as much as possible. It is a feature we have kept since our pre-options trading days because it often yields solid plays. Such was the case with VRUS this month, which, after first appearing in our reports on June 2nd, has run from super-subpenny well into subpenny territory. We’ve seen an increase from a low of .0005 on up to .0019, which marks a rise of 280%

Starting the Week Off Right, Keeping it Rolling

More Options Rippers:

Once again we came up with some solid options plays yesterday. A couple of the fresh ideas we formulated and passed along in our premarket report fared rather well. We led off with some SPY Puts which worked out from the outset, as the markets dragged their feet until around noon. We also had a bullish set of calls in the Coke chain which afforded ourselves and our readers a decent shot at some sizable intraday profit opportunities. The other pair of ideas from yesterday’s report were longer term calls with expiration in late May, so we’ll come back to those at a later date.

Our winning targets for the day were the SPY 04/25 $426-424 Puts and the KO Weekly $64-66 Calls, and here were the gains that were there for the taking on those:

SPY 04/25 $426-424 Puts
$426: .87-2.44 (+180%)
$425: .54-1.75 (+224%)
$424: .34-1.19 (+250%)
_____

KO Weekly $64-66 Calls
$64: 1.33-2.29 (+72%)
$65: .70-1.45 (+107%)
$66: .31-.75 (+141%)

KMX, SPY Options Recaps: 

We had even more continued success with our options ideas as we reached the halfway point of this 4-day trading week yesterday, including the third successful flip on our attitudes toward the SPY, which has been very kind to us this week. The day ended with some nice results from the two sets of plays we designated for observation.

We were looking at the KMX Weekly $105-97.50 Puts, which put up some really nice figures, and the SPY 04/12 $441-444 Calls, which ran out of the gate and posted some more modest yet still very respectable gains early in the session.

The trading ranges and total potential profits that could have been banked off of those ideas were as follows: 

KMX Weekly $105-97.50 Puts
$105: 4.50-11.76 (+161%)
$100: 1.65-6.80 (+312%)
$97.50: .87-4.48 (+416%)

SPY 04/12 $441-444 Calls
