PANW Mega Multi-Baggers & More

More Options Perfection:

We ended the week in Friday’s report by patting ourselves on the back for the options clean sweep that we managed with Thursday’s ideas. Of course, we formulated a group of fresh ideas for that report as well, and once again, we were flawless.

All three of the fresh options plays that we signaled interest in, recorded huge moves on the day and allowed for some serious single session gain opportunities to anyone who was in on the action. Our specific targets were the PANW Weekly $535-545 Calls, the WDAY Weekly $285-275 Puts, and the AMAT Weekly $150-148 Puts. Regardless of which strikwe point was chosen, the moves were considerable.

Here are the total ranges and possible gains that were made available by those ideas:
