Big Time Options Gainers & More

Options Review: 

Our premarket report yesterday morning included three sets of options ideas for our readers based off of the day’s earnings calendar. As our regular readers are surely aware, we like to use the increased price action and volatility that typically comes with a big name earnings drop, to our advantage.

The targets that we were zeroed in on for the day were the CRM Weekly $215-220 Calls, the HPE 03/18 $16 Calls, and the PLUG Weekly $25-26 Calls. All three of those contract sets posted solid numbers on the day, with only one set of PLUG contracts falling just shy of producing double-bag gain opportunities.

Here were the total intraday moves and the highest possible gains that could have been achieved as a result: 

CRM Weekly $215-220 Calls
$215:
 .50-2.50 (+400%)
$217.50: .31-1.59 (+413%)
$220: .21-.95 (+352%)
_____

HPE 03/18 $16 Calls
$16:
 .55-1.28 (+133%)
_____

PLUG Weekly $25-26 Calls
$25: .58-1.03 (+78%)
$25.50: .39-.87 (+123%)
$26: .25-.54 (+116%)

KR Weekly $49.50-52 Calls

Breaking for Thanksgiving on a High Note

Another Solid Options Effort:

We took a bold stance in yesterday morning’s premarket report, going bearish on all three sets of options ideas we formulated for the session. While all three target stocks turned in green candles on the day, the first couple hours of the session definitely played into our hands nicely. There were substantial opportunities for gains on the table for all three of our interests.

We were targeting the URBN Weekly $35-33 Puts, the DLTR Weekly $132-130 Puts, and the BBY Weekly $122-119 Puts. The following are the morning ranges and total possible profits that could have been attained off of these ideas:

URBN Weekly $35-33 Puts
$35:
 1.70-3.20 (+88%)
$34: .90-2.30 (+156%)
$33: .55-1.55 (+181%)
_____

DLTR Weekly $132-130 Puts
$132: .26-.77 (+196%)
$131: .20-.45 (+125%)
$130: .17-.44 (+159%)
_____

BBY Weekly $122-119 Puts

$122: 4.25-7.25 (+70%)
$121: 3.00-5.60 (+87%)
$120: 3.00-5.73 (+92%)
$119: 2.62-4.99 (+90%)

iSpecimen, Inc. ISPC – Recap:

On Monday morning, we tagged ISPC in our watchlist, and that stock went on to make a nice intraweek move.

From a low of 8.06, the stock ran as high as 18.50. That works out to an increase of 130% which is an excellent short term move for a NASDAQ stock in this price range. In those two sessions. ISPC has traded roughly ten times its 30-day average volume.

Going Bearish on Earnings Reporters

Options Review:

We’ve been back on our Midas Touch options trading business over the last several sessions, and yesterday morning was no different. We were just patting ourselves on the back for 100% accuracy on the previous session’s bangers, and we managed to do it again to start this holiday-shortened week.

We signaled ranges on a couple of plays, highlighting the SPY 11/22 $469-470 Calls, as well as going short on the CRNC 12/17 $105-95 Puts. Both turned out to be excellent notions, and the board was fully green for yet another day. The end of this week will be rather subdued, with a day off for Thanksgiving and just a half trading day for Black Friday, so it’s good we’re getting these in now.

Here are the total possible profits that could have been banked off of yesterday’s targets:

SPY 11/22 $469-470 Calls
$469:
 1.99-4.50 (+126%)
$470: .62-2.40 (+287%)
_____

CRNC 12/17 $105-95 Puts 
$105: 15.00-22.46 (+50%)
$100: 9.70-18.20 (+88%)
$95: 6.00-13.49 (+125%)
