Muted Start to the Week, Fresh Ideas

Monday’s Options Recap:

The markets got off to a rough start yesterday, and that did negatively impact the scope of our options success with the plays we were monitoring, especially considering they were targets January expirations. We may yet see those rise to the occasion, but for now, our one quick-strike idea from yesterday’s premarket report did make a significant intraday move.

The SPY typically provides a lot of good intraday volatility for us, and is quite often good for solid intraday gains when timed properly. Our actual targets for yesterday were the SPY 12/19 $383-384 Calls, and these were the largest intraday swings we witnessed:

SPY 12/19 $383-384 Calls
$383: .65-1.45 (+123%)
$384: .38-.90 (+137%)

Fresh Options Ideas:
GIS 01/20 $85-80 Puts
PLAY 01/20 $35-36 Calls
HEI 01/20 $150 Calls

OTC Recaps:

We had another couple of plays that performed well off of yesterday’s extended watchlist. Especially on slow days for options, monitoring these daily selections of mainly OTC stocks has often proved to be a good alternative use of our time.

Starry Group Holding, Inc. STRY
Alerted: December 19th
Range: .01-.035 (+250%)

Premier Biomedical Inc. BIEI

BABA and ROKU Options Targets Pop Off, Fresh Ideas

Tech Options Targets Soar:

We can’t remember the last time we had a truly bad day with regard to our potential options trading ideas. It might not have even happened once all year so far, and of course, yesterday was not an exception to that. We continue to knock the vast majority of our daily targets out of the park, and certainly hope that some of our readers have been able to take advantage of the leg-up we try to consistently provide.

Each of the target ranges we set with weekly expirations in yesterday morning’s premarket report yielded clear cut chances for some very nice intraday gains. We were looking at the BABA Weekly $106-109 Calls, the ROKU Weekly $96-97.50 Calls, and the CPB Weekly $46-48 Calls. Here were the single-session gain opportunities they provided to us:

Four Fresh Earnings Related Options Ideas

Options Reviews:

Yesterday was a rather subdued start to the week, at least in terms of the magnitude of the daily movement we saw in the options targets that we were observing for the day, however, a few of our ideas did still manage to produce some solid intraday gain opportunities for us.

We were tracking the MNDY Weekly $105-100 Puts and the WIX Weekly $70 Puts from yesterday morning’s newsletter, and we also have the figures on a longer-term play that we initiated on Thursday morning, the NICE 05/20 $185-190 Calls, which subsequently made considerable gains that ran well into multi-bag territory.

MNDY Weekly $105-100 Puts
$105: 4.07-9.00 (+121%)
$100: 2.80-6.70 (+139%)

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
