Our acumen in identifying successful short-to-mid-term options plays has been at  a high level for years now, and this week has been no different than those that came before it.

It was on Tuesday morning that our report contained a pair of ideas relating to the TLRY and TSLA chains. With the help of a solid Wednesday session, all contracts involved have produced notable gain opportunities:

TLRY 09/21 $91-93 Calls
$91 Calls – Range: 6.43-16.00 – Max Gain: 149%
$92 Calls – Range: 5.51-15.40 – Max Gain: 179%
$93 Calls – Range: 5.23-15.48 – Max Gain: 196%

TSLA 10/06 $285-290 Calls
$285 Calls – Range: 12.26-21.17 – Max Gain: 73%
$287.50 Calls – Range: 12.02-19.39 – Max Gain: 61%
$290 Calls – Range: 10.50-18.92 – Max Gain: 80%

Additionally, we signaled the BHC Weekly $21-22.50 Calls in yesterday morning’s report, and the $22’s and the $22.50’s yielded the most positive single-session results. The $22’s ran from .76-2.00 for a gain of 163% while the $22.50’s traded up from a low of .40 to hit 1.19, which worked out to a move of 198%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Momentum Plays & More

 Possible Momentum Plays

We’re looking at a pair of stocks this morning that have broken out, and that we’d like to monitor on the chance that they produce sustained uptrends.

Leading Brands, Inc. LBIX – This was a fairly illiquid stock until just recently, when it broke out of a mundane pattern of low volatility and began a run into blue skies which lasted from Tuesday through Friday. We’ll stay wary of the possibility for course corrections, but a dip-and-rip scenario could definitely come into play here in coming sessions. The volatility has ramped up in a huge way, which is what we always look out for as swing traders.
______

22nd Century Group Inc. XXII – In the case of XXII, the stock has traded in a fairly predictable pattern over the past few months, during which time it has formed a solid upward channel. The company also recently closed a $54M direct offering at 2.65/share. We’ll look for this one to continue to build, keeping an eye on it as we kick off a new trading week.


Walt Disney Co. DIS – Options Ideas

We also want to signal a couple of options ideas for Disney, which has a pretty nice bottom setup on the chart, trading near its lowest per-share pricing since December.

For a near-term idea, we’re going to be looking at the DIS Weekly $96-98 Calls and the DIS 11/24 $98-99 Calls in the event of an extended recovery, which seems due at any time now.
