PDD Options Review, 4 Fresh Ideas

Pinduoduo Options Recap:

With the holiday season upon us, it’s going to begin to become more of a struggle in terms of our typical tactics of trading options on the heels of big name earnings reports. But rest assured, we’re still going to keep our noses to the grindstone just like we always do, looking for interesting technical setups, Form-4 alerts, big news, and more.

Yesterday’s quick strike target was the sole earnings reporter of the day to catch our fancy, Chinese online retail giant, Pinduoduo. We targeted the PDD Weekly $73-76 Calls and those contracts all posted notable intraday moves for us, and with the activity we’re seeing in the premarket, we will be expecting to have to return to these targets tomorrow to report further increases.

PDD Weekly $73-76 Calls
$73:
3.00-4.55 (+52%)
$74: 2.51-3.90 (+55%)
$75: 2.08-3.35 (+61%)
$76: 1.69-2.80 (+66%)

In this span of just over a month, we’ve seen an incredible run that just keeps going. From our initially observed low of .0675, the high we’ve seen in the premarket this morning at .8864 marks an astonishing 1213%

Closing Out the Week Strong, Fresh Ideas

Options Reviews:

It’s a challenging time to be navigating the daily ins and outs of the current economic environment, especially with a dearth of big name earnings on the docket, but we have still been managing quite well, all things considered. Two of our three options targets went for some nice gains yesterday, and in addition to those, we have updated on a couple of longer term plays that have come into some really solid moves.

Friday’s Options Perfection, Fresh Idea for the SPY

Friday’s Options Review: 

The markets got absolutely crushed to close out the week on Friday, so it was fortunate that the majority of the plays that we offered up as intraday trading ideas were on the bearish side of the fence. However, the one set of calls that we rode with also bucked the trend and posted some huge gains, so we swept the board with a perfect performance on the day.

Our particular targets for the day were the BABA Weekly $110-113 Calls, the DOCU Weekly $68-65 Puts, the SPY 06/10 $400-398 Puts, and the SFIX Weekly $7-6.50 Puts. The potential profits produced by these plays did not disappoint. Those figures were as follows:

BABA Weekly $110-113 Calls
$110: 
.27-.95 (+252%)
$111: .09-.49 (+444%)
$112: .03-.27 (+800%)
$113: .01-.14 (+1300%)
_____

DOCU Weekly $68-65 Puts
$68: .91-3.70 (+307%)
$67: .54-3.00 (+455%)
$66: .36-2.20 (+511%)
$65: .20-1.50 (+650%)
_____

SPY 06/10 $400-398 Puts
$400: 5.24-11.00 (+110%)
$399: 4.57-9.28 (+103%)
$398: 3.88-8.31 (+114%)
_____

SFIX Weekly $7-6.50 Puts

$7.00: .05-.25 (+400%)
$6.50: .20-.55 (+175%)


Fresh Options Idea:

As we mentioned at the outset of last week, we’re heading into a very thin and spotty time in terms of big name earnings reporters, which are typically our daily bread and butter for quick-strike options trading opportunities. In times like these, we usually rely upon playing daily SPY targets. Today we’re going to look at the SPY 06/13 $385-383 Puts.
