More Options Recaps, 3 Fresh Plays

Recapping Yesterday’s Runners:

We kept our streak running once again on Tuesday with the small selection of potential plays laid out in our premarket report. We hashed out just three options ideas, and saw positive movement in each one. Even with a relative lack of big name earnings reporters so far this week, we’ve still managed to make it work, unearthing some really nice gains every day.

Yesterday’s movers were the SPY 03/18 $566 Puts, the TSLA Weekly $232.50-230 Puts, and the BEKE Weekly $23.50-24 Calls. They recorded the following moves on Tuesday:

Huge Moves on Friday, Trio of New Ideas

A Fantastic Friday:

In our most optimistic expectations, we would never have assumed that it would be possible for us to extend our streak of nothing but positive plays in our daily options watchlists to a full two months, but that’s where we’re at now! For our premarket report on Friday, we went with a selection of four possible targets, and each of them not only rose, but posted multi-bag upswings on the session. We even had a couple targets break the thousand-percent gain barrier (by a lot). Prior to this epic run, our longest ever perfect streak topped out at one session shy of one month, so this new milestone is truly wild to behold.

Friday’s prospects were the SPY 03/07 $573-575 Calls, the AVGO Weekly $197.50-202.50 Calls, the HPE Weekly $15.50-15 Puts, and the GAP Weekly $21.50-22.50 Calls. These were the splendid intraday increases they recorded:

SPY 03/07 $573-575 Calls
$573: .63-4.75 (+654%)
$574: .51-3.92 (+669%)
$575: .42-3.18 (+657%)

$197.50: .07-.61 (+771%)

Options Recaps, Trio of New Potential Plays

Tuesday’s Runners:

It was another excellent outing for us yesterday as another earnings season continued to ramp up, and the three potential options trading ideas that we offered up in our premarket report turned in some really nice runs on the day. Bank earnings are coming back big and carrying the markets up with them as they go, which means things should remain interesting around here for quite some time.

Yesterday’s highlighted possibilities were the GS Weekly $535-545 Calls, the SCHW Weekly $72.50-74 Calls, and the UNH Weekly $585-580 Puts. Here were the biggest intraday upticks on those target ranges:

GS Weekly $535-545 Calls
$535: .87-2.69 (+209%)
$540: .49-1.59 (+224%)
$545: .32-.85 (+166%)
_____

SCHW Weekly $72.50-74 Calls
$72.50: .44-1.64 (+273%)
$73: .28-1.31 (+368%)
$74: .12-.76 (+533%)
_____

UNH Weekly $585-580 Puts
$585: 19.20-27.24 (+42%)
$582.50: 16.20-25.40 (+57%)

Monday’s Movers, 5 Fresh Options Ideas

Excellent Way to Start the Week:

After a strong close to the last trading week, we opened things up on Monday with an equally fortuitous start to this fresh week. We cast a net of four potential options plays in our premarket report for the session, and witnessed positive intraday movement in every last target. Not only that, but glancing at the earnings calendar this morning, it appears the recent dry spell of reporters is coming to an end, with many big names releasing their figures.

Yesterday’s possibilities were the SPY 07/15 $561-562 Calls, the DJT Weekly $44-46 Calls, the NVDA Weekly $130-131 Calls, and the TSLA Weekly $250-255 Calls, and here were the daily runs they delivered, which, in the case of the SPY Calls in particular, were enormous:

SPY 07/15 $561-562 Calls
$561: .04-1.03 (+2475%)
$562: .02-.14 (+600%)
_____

DJT Weekly $44-46 Calls
$44: 2.40-3.85 (+60%)
$45: 2.16-3.60 (+67%)
_____

NVDA Weekly $130-131 Calls
$130: 2.48-3.30 (+33%)
$131: 1.59-2.07 (+30%)
_____

TSLA Weekly $250-255 Calls
$250: 9.61-18.29 (+90%)
$252.50: 8.43-16.45 (+95%)
$255: 7.20-14.50 (+101%)

Fresh Options Ideas:
UNH Weekly $520-530 Calls
PGR Weekly $215-220 Calls
SCHW Weekly $72.50-71 Puts

We’ve got strong multiple bottom signals on both YELP and SBUX, so we want to enter a couple of longer-term recovery ideas for those chains as well:

YELP 08/16 $37-38 Calls
SBUX 08/16 $75-80 Calls

Options Recap, 5 New Ideas

Wednesday’s Movers:

After selecting three possible options trading targets in our premarket report yesterday, we were met with good results right out of the gate on two of the three. We’ll keep those August ZM calls in our back pocket for the time being, because we’re still confident in the target in the coming weeks.

As for the ideas that did pan out instantly yesterday, we had the NVDA Weekly $133-134 Calls, and the SGH 07/19 $25 Calls. These were the intraday upswings they recorded for Wednesday’s session:

NVDA Weekly $133-134 Calls
$133: 2.02-3.20 (+58%)
$134: 1.60-2.55 (+59%)
_____

SGH 07/19 $25 Calls
$25: 1.16-4.40 (+279%)
_____

We have been targeting multiple options ideas with 07/19 expiration over the past few weeks, so we also wanted to circle back around for a play we alerted on last Tuesday morning, the MSM $75 Puts. It illustrates why it’s a good idea for us to continue tracking longer-term plays even if they don’t produce opportunities for us on the first day. The move in these puts was substantial.

MSM 07/19 $75 Puts
$75: .24-.83 (+246%)

Fresh Options Ideas:
NVDA Weekly $135-136 Calls
SPY 07/11 $561-562 Calls*
DAL Weekly $43.50-42.50 Puts
WDFC 07/19 $250 Calls
TSLA Weekly $265 Calls

*Trading options contracts on their day of expiration should only be attempted by experienced day traders
