Playing the SPY Like a Fiddle, 3 Potential Plays

Recap of Thursday’s Activity:

We don’t typically give such detailed predictions for daily market machinations as we did in our premarket report yesterday, but things played out essentially just like we expected. We mentioned that after the huge late-day rally on Wednesday, we were “anticipating the SPY to pare some of those gains early, before seeing another bounce”, and that’s just what we saw. With market volatility being what it is, we’ll continue sticking close to the SPY, just going off of our gut and the direction of the wind each morning to formulate our daily targets.

Here’s how that strategy worked out for yesterday’s SPY targets, the SPY 04/10 $532-534 Calls. We have the best intraday moves from our other idea, the KMX 04/17 $77.50-72.50 Puts as well.

.52-2.74 (+427%)

A Thunderous Thursday:

Things could not have gone much better for us on Thursday, with the entire slate of potential plays we highlighted in our premarket report coming through with some really nice intraday upswings.

Those four watchlisted ranges were the FUTU Weekly $112-114 Calls, the DG Weekly $79-81 Calls, the ADBE Weekly $415-410 Puts, and the S Weekly $17-16.50 Puts. Here’s how they fared:
