Thursday’s 5 Winners, 5 New Targets

Wrapping Up an Excellent Trading Week:

We were quite pleased with the way our options targets performed on Thursday, with all five of the ideas we included in our premarket report for the day producing solid gain opportunities. Out of every potential play we posted this week, just one of them failed to put forth instant results. If you’ve been following us for awhile, you know that this is the sort of success we have come to expect from ourselves. We very seldom miss, and we are rightfully proud of that fact.
