Big Gains Tuesday, 4 Fresh Plays

Big Gain Tuesday:

We fared quite well yesterday on two fronts, with regard to our options targets this week. Not only did all three of the fresh possibilities we offered up in yesterday’s premarket report produce significant intraday movement to the topside, but both of Monday morning’s plays tacked on some pretty impressive new highs.

So, below we have yesterday’s figures for the SPY 11/28 $455-454 Puts, the PDD Weekly $132-134 Calls, and the ZS Weekly $185-182.50 Puts, as well as the two-day swings made by Monday’s plays, the WMT Weekly $155-157.50 Calls, and the BBY Weekly $69-70 Calls.

Top Marks Tuesday, Fresh Earnings Plays

Yesterday’s Options Movers:  

We made some good picks for yesterday morning’s premarket report, coming up with four options trading ideas based off of the day’s earnings calendar. It was a mixed bag of calls and puts, and we fared pretty well with the whole lot of them. We’re still in the position of being right in the thick of an active quarterly earnings season, and attempting to take full advantage.

Yesterday’s four plays that turned out to be solid intraday runners were the DDOG Weekly $88-85 Puts, the UPS Weekly $172.50-175 Calls, the LLY Weekly $490-500 Calls, and the IFF 08/18 $65-60 Puts. The gains we observed, which ranged from reasonably strong to very good, on those ideas were as follows:

DDOG Weekly $88-85 Puts
$88: 
2.32-4.00 (+72%)
$87: 1.73-3.35 (+94%)
$86: 1.45-2.86 (+97%)
$85: 1.08-2.30 (+113%)
_____

UPS Weekly $172.50-175 Calls
$172.50: 
5.40-9.15 (+69%)
$175: 3.10-6.41 (+107%)
_____

LLY Weekly $490-500 Calls
$490: 18.55-47.80 (+158%)
$495: 13.65-44.45 (+226%)
$500: 12.65-39.35 (+211%)
_____

IFF 08/18 $65-60 Puts
$65: 1.45-2.25 (+55%)
$60: .34-.60 (+76%)

Thousand Percent+ Gainer, Fresh Ideas

04/21 Options Reviews:

In recent weeks we have been tagging several longer-term options plays with an April 21st expiration as opposed to weeklies, and today we wanted to circle back for some of those which posted new highs for us during yesterday’s session.

We’ll start off with the DOMO 04/21 $15 Calls, which just appeared in yesterday morning’s report, and opened up with a solid first day effort as it ran from .65-1.00, for an intraday upswing of 54%

Next up we’ve got the MKC 04/21 $75-80 Calls and the SMTC 04/21 $26-25 Puts which we initially flagged in our reports from last Tuesday, and last Thursday morning, respectively. The breakdown of the moves they’ve made since last week is as follows, and as you can see, those SMTC Puts easily breached the thousand percent gain barrier in what has been one of our hottest recent ideas:

MKC 04/21 $75-80 Calls
$75: 4.80-10.32 (+115%)
$80: 1.40-5.40 (+286%)
_____

SMTC 04/21 $26-25 Puts
$26:
 .20-3.40 (+1600%)
$25: .21-3.09 (+1371%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
SMPL 04/21 $40-35 Puts
DLO 04/21 $16-15 Puts


Hypercharge Networks Corp. HCNWF – OTC Recap: 

We also wanted to recap the performance of an OTC stock we tagged in yesterday morning’s report. HCNWF went on a very nice intraday run from a low of .685 on up to a high of 1.58, which works out to a highly respectable single session rise of 131%

Kicking Off the First of Two Short Trading Weeks

Dave & Busters Entertainment, Inc. PLAY – Options Review:

We just had a single solitary options idea that we formulated for Friday morning’s premarket report, in the Dave & Busters chain, the PLAY 01/20 $35-37 Calls. We’ve got an update on this morning to start off this short week, which we expect to be rather laid back, if prior years are any indicator.

There weren’t any other interesting earnings reporters going out on the day, but we managed to eke out some decent gains. We’re going without earnings once again today, but we’ve got some increased activity in the OTC as you’ll read about below.

PLAY 01/20 $35-37 Calls
$35: 1.03-1.85 (+80%)
$36: .72-1.27 (+76%)
$37: .60-.81 (+35%)


More OTC Recaps:

We tend to lean more heavily on the OTC toward the end of the year, when penny stocks typically heat up compared to the larger markets. Not many large companies are reporting earnings at the moment, and OTC tax loss selling can hammer a lot of these stocks down. That, in turn, causes a wave of opportunistic traders like ourselves to swoop in and accumulate cheap shares. The net result is a heightened landscape of possibility for many over the counter stocks.

Below, we’ve got a group of OTC plays we’ve been tracking in recent reports that posted some new highs on an otherwise mundane Friday. We last alerted STRY and BIEI on the 20th, and GTII just a couple of days later. Here were the updated figures on the total ranges and possible gain opportunities as we closed out the trading week:

Starry Group Holding, Inc. STRY
Alerted: December 20th
Range: .0165-.0335 (+103%)
_____

Premier Biomedical Inc. BIEI
Alerted: December 20th
Range: .0031-.006 (+99%)
_____

Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. GTII
Alerted: December 22nd
Range: .74-1.20 (+62%)

Massive Options Movers & More

Enormous Options Gainers:

We took advantage of the SPY with supreme accuracy yesterday. In the early morning, it appeared as if futures would rise, but that was curtailed by some poor economic reports shortly before we sent out our newsletters. We flipped over to the bearish side of things for a fresh target and with the help of a deleterious session for the markets in general, it turned out to be the exact right choice.

We were tracking those SPY 09/14 $406-404 Puts, as well as the CNM Weekly $25 Calls, and witnessed huge intraday gains in both cases. We also have an update on a longer-term play from last week, when we called the GTLB 09/16 $50 Calls on Tuesday morning. Those subsequently posted multibag opportunity as well. All in all, we’ve offered up ideas that have absolutely performed as well or better than one could’ve hoped.

SPY 09/14 $406-404 Puts
$406: 
4.51-14.00 (+210%)
$405: 3.90-13.00 (+233%)
$404: 3.36-12.00 (+257%)
_____

CNM Weekly $25 Calls
$25: .05-.85 (+1600%)
_____

GTLB 09/16 $50 Calls
$50: 1.24-11.70 (+844%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
DOOO Weekly $70-75 Calls
STX 10/14 $67-68 Calls
