Monday’s Runners, 5 New Ideas

Nice Start to a Fresh Week:

We picked right up where we left off last week, with big time options trading opportunities left, right and center. For our group of fresh possibilities that we presented in yesterday morning’s premarket report, we were running slightly on the light side, with just a trio of potential plays for the session.

We had zeroed in on the SAIC 06/16 $105-110 Calls, the L 06/16 $60 Calls, and the TSLA Weekly $215-220 Calls as our primary interests for the day, and were not disappointed when all three recorded intraday upswings. Here were the intraday moves and total possible profits involved with those plays yesterday:

SAIC 06/16 $105-110 Calls
$105:
 1.25-2.75 (+120%)
$110: .25-.84 (+236%)
_____

L 06/16 $60 Calls
$60:

Big Start to the Week, Fresh Options Ideas

Solid Start to the Week:

Things got off to a good start for us yesterday, as we opened the books on another trading week. Things were a little slow on the earnings front, so there weren’t many things catching our eye, but the two sets of targets that we did generate for our premarket report did post rather impressive intraday performances. Today’s earnings calendar is much fuller, so we’ll have a wider selection of potential plays this morning.

We had signaled potential interest in the ZIM Weekly $16.50-15.50 Puts, and the GLBE 06/16 $35 Puts, and most of the intraday moves they recorded were good for multibag gains. We’ve also got an update on a set of calls we have been tracking since the morning of May 8th, the GTLB 05/26 $28 Calls, which have made quite a significant run as GTLB has been on a steady rise these past couple of weeks.

ZIM Weekly $16.50-15.50 Puts
$16.50: .50-2.03 (+306%)
$16: .50-1.60 (+220%)
$15.50: .31-1.07 (+245%)
_____

GLBE 06/16 $35 Puts 
$35: 1.75-3.04 (+74%)
_____

GTLB 05/26 $28 Calls
$28: 1.70-4.50 (+165%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
LOW Weekly $202.50-200 Puts
DKS Weekly $128-130 Calls
BJ 06/16 $65 Puts
ZM Weekly $71-69 Puts

Kicking Off the First of Two Short Trading Weeks

Dave & Busters Entertainment, Inc. PLAY – Options Review:

We just had a single solitary options idea that we formulated for Friday morning’s premarket report, in the Dave & Busters chain, the PLAY 01/20 $35-37 Calls. We’ve got an update on this morning to start off this short week, which we expect to be rather laid back, if prior years are any indicator.

There weren’t any other interesting earnings reporters going out on the day, but we managed to eke out some decent gains. We’re going without earnings once again today, but we’ve got some increased activity in the OTC as you’ll read about below.

PLAY 01/20 $35-37 Calls
$35: 1.03-1.85 (+80%)
$36: .72-1.27 (+76%)
$37: .60-.81 (+35%)


More OTC Recaps:

We tend to lean more heavily on the OTC toward the end of the year, when penny stocks typically heat up compared to the larger markets. Not many large companies are reporting earnings at the moment, and OTC tax loss selling can hammer a lot of these stocks down. That, in turn, causes a wave of opportunistic traders like ourselves to swoop in and accumulate cheap shares. The net result is a heightened landscape of possibility for many over the counter stocks.

Below, we’ve got a group of OTC plays we’ve been tracking in recent reports that posted some new highs on an otherwise mundane Friday. We last alerted STRY and BIEI on the 20th, and GTII just a couple of days later. Here were the updated figures on the total ranges and possible gain opportunities as we closed out the trading week:

Starry Group Holding, Inc. STRY
Alerted: December 20th
Range: .0165-.0335 (+103%)
_____

Premier Biomedical Inc. BIEI
Alerted: December 20th
Range: .0031-.006 (+99%)
_____

Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. GTII
Alerted: December 22nd
Range: .74-1.20 (+62%)
