Options Reviews, New Ideas

Options Recaps:

Our only new idea and primary target yesterday was Target, which performed incredibly well on the day. We had signaled interest in the TGT Weekly $143-146 Calls in our morning report, and those produced some serious multibag gain opportunities.

Here are the total profits that were available to anyone that had caught our premarket report:

TGT Weekly $143-146 Calls 
$143: 4.45-11.70 (+163%)
$144: 3.35-10.65 (+218%)
$145: 3.00-9.81 (+227%)
$146: 2.50-8.80 (+252%)

We are also going to want to stay close to the action as TGT continues to show strength. We are going to roll up to include the TGT Weekly $150-155 Calls, which we will track into the end of the week tomorrow.


Aureus, Inc. ARSN 

We had also tagged ARSN in yesterday morning’s extended watchlist, and multibag gains were to be had there as well. We witnessed a low of .0025 before it ran up to .0067, for an intraday push of 168% that came on an all-time record volume of 427.3M shares.

An interesting factoid on ARSN: The stock actually represents the original dairy company that the Yeungling family established during Prohibition to supplement the losses from their world-renowned brewing business.

PANW, BJ Reviews

BJ’s Wholesale Club Holdings Inc. BJ

We had been tracking a target in the BJ’s options chain toward the end of last week, which were the BJ 06/19 $30 Calls. Then on Friday morning, we added an extra idea by rolling up to include the 06/19 $40 Calls as well. After another solid push, we have a new high to report on the $30’s, and our newer ideas performed well also, posting a multibag intraday performance.

So overall, from Thursday’s signal on the 06/19 $30 Calls, we observed a two-day swing from 1.50-8.42, marking a rise of 461%  Meanwhile, the 06/19 $40 Calls
posted a move from .45-1.68, which worked out to a single-session gain of 273%



Palo Alto Networks, Inc. PANW

Additionally, we had highlighted a trio of contracts in the PANW chain in our premarket report from Friday, with the PANW Weekly $235-245 Calls. We were able to see quite a bit of success there. 

Weekly $235-245 Calls
$235: 4.68-8.30 (+77%)
$240: 2.45-5.03 (+105%)
$245: .99-3.35 (+238%)

BJ Recap, Fresh Options Ideas

BJ’s Wholesale Club Holdings Inc. BJ – Recap

As usual, we put out some fresh options ideas in yesterday mornings report, and despite a poor showing for the markets in general, we did see some instant success with our one-contract target in the BJ’s chain.

We had highlighted the BJ 06/19 $30 Calls for observation and the stock provided us with a great opportunity for huge gains with its own move from from 30.39 to 35.45 (+17%). The $30 Calls ran from 1.50-5.60, for an enormous intraday rip of 273%

We will also roll up to include the 06/19 $40 Calls on our watchlist heading into the long weekend, as the momentum from yesterday’s big move could certainly spill over.


Fresh Options Ideas*:
DE Weekly $145-148 Calls
PANW Weekly $235-245 Calls
BABA Weekly $205-207.50 Calls
