Thursday’s Movers, 3 Ideas for Friday

Another Strong Session:

We did pretty well with regard to the performances of the potential options plays included in yesterday’s premarket report. We saw good gains in 7 out of the 8 individual contract sets in the ranges we were monitoring, so we’re going to call that a good day. We’ve been slightly thin on interesting earnings reporters toward the end of this week, but that will certainly pick up next week, with a whole host of big names set to release their figures.

As for our targets from yesterday, we had the NTES Weekly $79-80 Calls, the CSCO Weekly $58-60 Calls, and the DIS Weekly $110-112 Calls on watch, and here are those results for the session:

NTES Weekly $79-80 Calls

Closing Out Another Top Flight Week, 3 New Plays

Reviewing Thursday’s Winners:

We couldn’t really be more pleased with our performance yesterday, keeping our record-breaking (for us, anyway) win streak intact for the 14th straight session! We are one good slate of ideas for today, away from sealing our third straight week of nothing but wins! Even more impressive when we factor in that only a single idea on the preceding Friday stands in the way of our being on a MONTH-long string of success! We’re used to our ideas doing quite well on a regular basis, but this latest run has really been stretching the envelope.

Yesterday’s slate consisted of the WMT Weekly $73-75 Calls, the CSCO Weekly $48.50-49.50 Calls, the LITE Weekly $50-52.50 Calls, the DE Weekly $355-360 Calls, and the SPY 08/15 $547-549 Calls. These were the best intraday runs they registered for Thursday’s session:
