Thursday’s Plays:
We got back a good set of results for the ideas we placed on watch in Thursday’s premarket report. We signaled interest in five possible plays, and saw some good activity during the session. As usual, it was our SPY targets that outshone the rest of the field by a significant margin, and it wouldn’t be unreasonable to expect that to be the case today as well.
Yesterday’s movers were the SPY 05/14 $743-745 Calls, the CSCO Weekly $115 Calls, the MFC Weekly $39 Puts, the VIK Weekly $85 Calls, and the NVMI Weekly $500 Puts:
