Big Runner Recap, Fresh Ideas

Tuesday’s Nice Plays: 

Another day, another batch of solid options plays offering up excellent intraday gain chances. Such was the case with Tuesday’s selections, with the exception of the longer-term calls we highlighted in DISH, which we’re sure we’ll be coming back to before their April expiration.

The shorter-term earnings plays we signaled, however, did manage to post some really impressive figures. They were the DKS Weekly $137-140 Calls, the SE Weekly $69-71 Calls, and the SQSP 03/17 $25-30 Calls. The gain opportunities presented by those targets ranged from very good to excellent, as you can see below on this intraday breakdown:

SMAR Options Review, Fresh Ideas

Smartsheet, Inc. SMAR – Options Review:

First off, we’d just like to apologize for the lack of a premarket report on Friday. An untimely power outage prevented us from getting anything out to readers in time for the market open. In the past dozen years, we have missed maybe five trading days, if that, so it’s not something one should expect to see repeated anytime soon.

In the meantime, we did see some new highs in the SMAR 12/16 $35-40 Calls prior to their expiration at week’s end, which we wanted to report back on today before kicking off a fresh trading week. We have been tracking these calls since December 2nd, and here are the figures and total possible profits we witnessed over that span of roughly two weeks:

SMAR 12/16 $35-40 Calls
$35: 1.55-7.50 (+384%)
$40: .34-2.65 (+679%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
SPY 12/19 $383-384 Calls
SHOP 01/06 $36.50-37.50 Calls
AAPL 01/06 $139-141 Calls 


OTC Recaps:

We’ve also got a couple of quick updates on the recent performance of a couple of the OTC plays we’ve tagged in our extended watchlists. When we left off on Thursday, we had been tracking both of these stocks for a week.

Tuesday’s Recaps, Today’s Fresh Ideas

Recap For Tuesday Plays:

While the markets certainly pulled a head fake yesterday, stair-stepping down for the majority of the session after an early morning gap-up, we still managed to see some marginal gain opportunities in the daily options ideas we put in yesterday’s premarket report. While the gain chances in the SPY and others were slightly muted compared to what we usually achieve, our FLNC Calls clearly stole the show with an excellent multibag performance.

Our specific areas of interest for Tuesday were the SPY 12/13 $407-410 Calls, the ORCL Weekly $82.50-85 Calls, the CNM Weekly $22.50 Calls, and the FLNC Weekly $17.50 Calls. The rundown of the moves they and the total possible profits associated with those, were as follows:

Continued Options Excellence, Fresh Plays

A Perfect Wednesday:

We got right back into the groove of perfect options plays on Wednesday, with our premarket report for the day containing no less than five fresh ideas for our readers’ consideration.

Monday’s Runners, Fresh Slate of Ideas

Good Start to the Holiday Week:

Things got off to a really good start to kick off the holiday-shortened trading week yesterday. We included a couple of quick strike options plays and a couple of longer-term ones to watch with December expirations in our daily report. While those extended term plays will need some more time to materialize, we got some very nice intraday movement and subsequent gain chances with our weekly calls.

We formulated the FUTU Weekly $50-52 Calls, and the DIS Weekly $98-101 Calls as our daily targets and the results were solid. FUTU was far away the hotter play, posting significant multibag runs on the day. Here’s how those broke down:

FUTU Weekly $50-52 Calls
$50:
 1.55-4.85 (+213%)
$51: 1.04-3.90 (+275%)
$52: .85-3.15 (+271%)
_____

DIS Weekly $98-101 Calls
$98: 1.19-2.00 (+68%)
