Five Fresh Plays to Close Out a Good Week

Solid Options Runners from Thursday:

While we didn’t quite get a clean sweep on our earnings related options ideas in yesterday morning’s premarket report, we did manage to find some fairly big runners in three out of the five selections we made for the day. The SPY Calls stood out, with the markets logging a seriously bullish session all day long, which facilitated some solid double bag runs, but the ideas we had in SNOW were the real winners.

The quick-strike targets that really produced for us were the SPY 08/26 $413-415 Calls, the SNOW Weekly $187.50-192.50 Calls, and the DLTR Weekly $155-150 Puts, which recorded the following intraday activity:

SPY 08/26 $413-415 Calls
$413: 
3.55-7.20 (+103%)
$414: 2.94-6.35 (+116%)

Options Perfection, New Ideas

Perfect Streak of Options Plays:

We really turned the volume up to 11 yesterday in terms of our fortunes with options trading this week. We came out in our premarket report with a collection of four potential target ranges in some big name earnings reporters, and the results we got were quite pleasing.

All four of our designated plays produced some really good intraday movement and gain opportunities for ourselves, and our readers. For those of you who are newly subscribed to our daily reports, this is the well we typically like to dip into whenever possible. Big companies reporting their quarterlies provides daytraders with the price action and volatility that can allow for big time intraday successes.

Our targets that flourished yesterday were the DKS Weekly $111-113 Calls, the BEKE 09/16 $15-17.50 Calls, the PANW Weekly $550-565 Calls, and the ZM Weekly $89-86 Puts, and these were the moves they posted on the day:

DKS Weekly $111-113 Calls
$111: 
2.53-4.28 (+69%)
$112: 1.85-3.50 (+89%)
$113: 1.55-3.20 (+106%)

BEKE 09/16 $15-17.50 Calls
$15: 
1.41-2.40 (+70%)
$17.50: .35-1.02 (+191%)
_____

PANW Weekly $550-565 Calls
$550: 
13.10-25.00 (+91%)
$555: 11.30-20.43 (+81%)

Winning Options Recap:

We’re back and ready to get at it this morning as we kick off a fresh trading week. Friday was a rare occasion, perhaps only the third day in the last ten years that we were unable to put out a premarket newsletter, due to an untimely plumbing emergency at our editing office. We apologize for the absence, but we’re ready get cracking this week!

We’re going to start off by highlighting the gains achieved by a couple of our extended term options ideas from earlier last week.

Both of those plays finished the week out with some impressive moves on the books.

Here are the trading ranges and total possible profits for those ideas:
