Reviewing Options Success, New Targets

Winning Options Review:

It would seem that more often than not, especially recently, that we turn in a full slate of successful options ideas, and yesterday was no exception to that. We floated three potential options ideas to track in our premarket report yesterday morning, and all three came back with positive performances on the day. Those were the CRM Weekly $170-175 Calls, the VSCO 06/17 $45 Calls, and the CPRI Weekly $49-52 Calls.

We also mentioned yesterday that we’d hold off on a successful idea from Tuesday’s report, the DELL 06/17 $50-52.50 Calls, and after another solid day it tacked onto those gains. Here are the two-day swing figures from that target, as well as the single session moves made by our trio of fresh plays from yesterday.

5.85-9.15 (+56%)

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Post-Earnings Options Plays

Energizer Holdings, Inc. ENR 

We’ve been seeking out prime bottom play opportunities this week, and to continue that trend, we’ve run across Energizer this morning on the heels of the stock registering a new annual low yesterday.

In conjunction with the fact that Deutsche Bank just upgraded ENR from a Hold to a Buy rating with a price target of $52/share (trading in the $37-range yesterday), along with indicators that the stock is heavily oversold, and we are confident in calling this one a prime bottom play candidate as well.


Fresh Options Plays 

We also have a pair of fresh earnings-related options ideas to pass along this morning. Post-earnings plays are typically our miost successful, and we’ve got a couple of good hunches about the following contracts as we cruise through this midweek. 

FedEx Corp. FDX –  Already in a good spot on the chart for a possible rebound leading into today’s session with a strong double-bottom setup, we’re looking to FDX options as FedEx’s Q4 results yielded a profits and earnings beat. As a result, we’re going to be tracking the FDX Weekly $157.50-60 Calls.

Micron Technology, Inc. MU – We are also looking at MU, which reported in the post-market yesterday as well, posting a beat on Q3 earnings, and bolstered guidance for sales of computer memory chips. Like the above mentioned play, MU is giving off a heavy multi-bottom signal. In this case we are interested in monitoring the MU Weekly $35-36.50 Calls.
