OTC and Options Recaps, Fresh Plays

Options Review:

We’ve been trudging along through another dry spell for earnings plays as best we can, opening up the fresh trading week yesterday morning with a couple of decent ideas. We’re always going to try to look to the SPY when all else fails, and those were the primary winners for the session.

We had signaled interest in the SPY 09/26 $365-367 Calls, as well as the CHK 10/21 $95-90 Puts, which yielded the following intraday gain opportunities for ourselves and our readers:

$365: .60-1.94 (+223%)
$366: .35-1.17 (+234%)

$134 CallsRange: 1.79-6.50 – Max Gain: 263%
$135 Calls – Range: 1.15-5.80 – Max Gain: 404%

Cheers to anyone who took advantage of this unbelievable quick-strike opportunity!


Ebix, Inc. EBIX – Form-4 Alert

We caught a Form-4 insider buying alert on EBIX this morning. That’s when we noticed the prime bottom positioning of the chart, complete with a significant gap to the topside. This will be a perfect candidate to identify some longer-term options plays we have interest in tracking.

We’ll be looking at the EBIX 03/20 $30-40 Calls in the days and weeks ahead.
