4 Fresh Options Plays to Finish the Week

SPY Runners, Earnings Plays: 

We played both sides of the fence on the SPY yesterday, signaling a strike range of both puts and calls in our premarket report. We only consider such a thing when the markets seem due for a choppy day, and we were certainly correct in assuming that would be the case. Thanks to a mixed session, we got just what we were looking for with the SPY Puts doing their thing in the morning, and the calls claiming the spotlight for the remainder of the day. Our pair of earnings plays also yielded results, giving us the third consecutive session of 100% accuracy on our ideas.

The specific targets we were zeroed in on were the SPY 03/11 $424-422 Puts, the SPY 03/11 $422-424 Calls, the JD Weekly $60-58 Puts, and the ASAN 03/18 $40-35 Puts.

Gauging the SPY, Fresh Plays

Another Excellent Day for Options:

We kept the options train rolling along the tracks yesterday morning, when we were just patting ourselves on the back for going 3-for-3 on Tuesday’s options ideas. We then of course formulated a fresh selection of potential targets to observe, and for the second consecutive session, we saw some really nice moves in all of them.

Our areas of interest for the day were the MDB Weekly $305-315 Calls, the THO 03/18 $90-95 Calls, and the CRCT 03/22 $10 Puts, and they didn’t let us down. There were fine opportunities across the board, and they were as follows:

MDB Weekly $305-315 Calls
$305: 18.10-36.00 (+99%)
$310: 13.50-28.87 (+114%)
$315: 11.35-25.70 (+126%)

Fresh Options Ideas: 

As we all know by now, here’s been a lot of volatility added to the markets via the uncertainty generated by the ongoing Russian attacks on the Ukraine, and today we’re going to straddle the fence a bit after some rather flat CPI figures came in this morning. We’re going to signal a set of SPY strikes, and leave it for our readers to gauge which way the wind is blowing, and whether to go bearish or bullish at any given moment today. We’ve also got a couple of earnings plays to add the mix as well.

SPY 03/11 $422-424 Calls
SPY 03/11 $424-422 Puts
JD Weekly $60-58 Puts
ASAN 03/18 $40-35 Puts

On a Major Roll with Options Targets

Big Time Options Success: 

We went full bore on fresh options ideas for Friday morning’s premarket report, offering up what we felt were a set of good targets for five separate sets of contracts. One was a longer-term call in CVNA for March, which we’ll swing back around to in a later report, and the rest were quick strike plays, all of which produced huge intraday gain opportunities for ourselves and our readers.

Our areas of interest were the AMC Weekly $21-20 Puts, the WFC Weekly $55-56 Calls, the JPM Weekly $165-162.50 Puts, and the SPY 01/14 $462.50-461 Puts. The gains available on the day all ended up well into multibag territory. Here are the exact ranges and total possible profits that were available:

Fresh Options Ideas & More

Options Ideas – Form-4 Plays:

We do typically like to stick with options plays that coincide with big name earnings reporters, but we always like to scan for Form-4’s (insider transactions) and formulate ideas in those instances where we like the chart setup.

We’ve got a couple of potential targets which fit that bill with huge amounts of shares being soaked up in ASAN last week, and a large $10M block being purchased in PFSI yesterday. These transactions give us at least a reasonable confidence that those involved believe that the future looks brighter than the present.

ASAN 01/21 $110-120 Calls
PFSI 12/17 $65 Calls 

Options Ideas – Earnings Plays: 

Of course we don’t want to leave out our bread and butter, so we’ve also taken a look at what the earnings calendar has to offer this morning.

Build-A-Bear and Ambarella are a couple in that category that our catching our eye today, so we’ll hash up some ideas for those as well:

BBW 12/17 $17.50 Calls
AMBA Weekly $197.50-207.50 Calls
