5 Fresh Ideas to Start the Week

Friday’s Big Plays: 

We went bearish on our entire slate of options ideas in our premarket report on Friday morning, and it turned out to be the right way to go. The markets flailed, and helped our ideas along nicely. Out of the four potential ideas we offered up, all four produced significant intraday movement, and solid gain opportunities.

We were zeroed in on the DOCU Weekly $57-55 Puts, the ORCL Weekly $84-82.50 Puts, the GPS Weekly $11.50-11 Puts, and the JKS Weekly $55-53 Puts. The gains we witnessed, which ranged from moderate to eye-popping, were as follows:
