Kicking Off This Short Trading Week

Solid Friday Finish:

As we’ve been mentioning over the past week or so, we’re contending with an earnings dry spell at the moment, so our daily selection has been rather more limited than what is typical. However, we haven’t let that stop us entirely from formulating what we think are some of the more attractive prospects on any given trading day.

Friday’s premarket report was limited to just a pair of fresh options ideas, the ADBE Weekly $510-515 Calls and the SPY 06/16 $440-442 Calls. Despite a rocky session for the markets in general, we saw solid intraday movement from each of our selected contract sets. Here’s a breakdown of their daily performances:

ADBE Weekly $510-515 Calls
$510:
 .50-1.28 (+156%)
$515: .19-.42 (+121%)
_____

SPY 06/16 $440-442 Calls
$440:
 1.05-2.45 (+133%)
$441: .55-1.57 (+185%)
$442: .27-.87 (+232%)


Fresh Options Ideas:

Unfortunately, the dearth of high profile earnings reporters is slated to persist for the better part of the next month, but we will be equally persistent in our efforts to keep the ideas based on other factors flowing. Here’s what we find interesting today, to kick off this holiday-shortened trading week.

NVDA Weekly $425-430 Calls
SPOT Weekly $157.50-160 Calls
SPY 06/20 $437-438 Calls*

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


Faraday Future Intelligent  Electric, Inc. (NASDAQ:FFIE)

We’re also interested in tracking FFIE, a low-priced NASDAQ stock that has recently been steadily making its way up off of its annual lows. If it can hold above its recent support level at its its 50DMA of .25, we will remain interested.

Closing Out a Fruitful Trading Week

Options Recap: 

We offered up a good mix of options ideas in yesterday morning’s premarket report, most of which worked out for us. We’ll leave out the September calls we signaled in CRMT because that idea is going to take a little time to mature, but the other three plays we highlighted turned in solid performances on the day.

We were looking at the CAG 04/08 $35-33 Puts, the STZ 04/08 $237.50-232.50 Puts, and the LW 04/15 $60 Calls. and got some pretty good intraday movement there.

Hot Stock Runners, Fresh Ideas

Winning Options Recap: :

Yesterday’s quick-strike option idea was the NVAX 12/23 $230-235 Calls. We also had a longer-term play in the SNAP chain that will need some time to mature. For now, the gains in our NVAX targets weren’t exactly eye-popping, but they were very respectable for the session.

NVAX 12/23 $230-235 Calls
$230:
 3.45-6.65 (+93%)
$235: 2.97-5.18 (+74%)
