Tuesday’s Options Success, 5-Pack of Fresh Plays

Tuesday’s Options Recaps:

We got onto a good track yesterday with the fresh options ideas we included in yesterday morning’s premarket report, which each of the three sets of targets that we formulated producing considerable intraday movements and potential gains. This was despite all of them being bullish in nature, and the fact that the markets saw yet another disappointing session. We’ve got another, even larger slate of options ideas for our readers to consider this morning, as well.

Our ideas that helped us buck the trend yesterday were the GTLB 12/16 $45 Calls, the FERG 12/16 $115-120 Calls, and the SIG Weekly $60-62 Calls. While we certainly didn’t see astronomical gains, there was plenty of intraday movement and profit opportunities for us in every case.

Monday’s Opportunities, Tuesday’s Fresh Plays

Monday’s Movers:

The week got off to a slow start yesterday, with the markets dipping and a general lack of interesting earnings reports, but we still managed to find some intraday opportunities in a couple of the options ideas we had signaled for observation. We went two for three on the day in our premarket report, which wasn’t too bad under the circumstances.

The ideas that produced intraday movement for us were the SPY 12/05 $405 Calls, and the SAIC 12/16 $110-115 Calls.and those gain chances were moderate but respectable. We also have an update on another set of December 16th calls that we alerted last Monday morning. the RYAN 12/16 $40 Calls, which put together a very nice run over the past week.

Sustained Options Success, Fresh Plays

Solid Day for Options: 

While the markets still had a down day overall yesterday, they did open higher in the morning and exhibited some good volatility and decent intraday upswings. That activity aided our daily options trading selections, which put up some nice figures, and the chance for ourselves and our readers to take advantage.

Our designated targets for the day were the ORCL Weekly $70-72.50 Calls, the COP Weekly $110-112 Calls, and the FERG Weekly $100-110 Calls. We saw positive movement out of every individual contract set in those ranges with the one exception of the FERG $100’s, which didn’t register much activity. The other nine sets produced the following gain opportunities:

ORCL Weekly $70-72.50 Calls
$70: 
1.11-2.14 (+93%)
$71: .71-1.55 (+118%)
$72: .45-1.06 (+136%)
$72.50: .39-.86 (+121%)

Using the SPY to Our Advantage, 3 Fresh Ideas

SPY Puts Surge: 

Once again yesterday, the markets losses are our gains. Our lone options trading idea for the day focused upon a dim view of the SPY, and with another precipitous decline for stocks, we hit the nail right on the head. This is among the reasons why our readers see SPY plays in our newsletters on a highly regular basis, as it tends to be easier to predict the actions of the markets as a whole than it is do so the same for just one. The SPY also sees a lot of intraday volatility which can often lead to opportunities on both sides of the fence in a single session.

In terms of yesterday morning, due to a bit of a drought of earnings reporters, our premarket report contained only one idea, which was the SPY 06/13 $385-383 Puts. Those targets offered up the chance at the following really nice intraday profit chances:

 SPY 06/13 $385-383 Puts
$385: 4.24-11.01 (+160%)
$384: 3.46-10.50 (+203%)
$383: 2.84-9.67 (+240%)
