5 Big Ideas to Finish Out the Trading Week

Thursday Review:

It was another good day for us on Thursday, keeping up a solid run we’ve been having this week with a vast majority of the picks issued. In yesterday’s premarket report, we went with three possibilities from the morning’s earnings calendar, and from all three we saw some pretty nice intraday upswings. Things should play similarly today, as we’ve got another big slate of earnings reporters in the calendar.

A Winning Wednesday, 3 New Opportunities

Wednesday’s Recap:

Wednesday turned out to be another really good day for our options ideas. Four out of the five potential targets from our premarket report for the day were based off of untraded-upon earnings reports, and all four of those yielded some good intraday opportunities. The fifth was a swing-trade idea based of of some insider buying records, and we may yet come back for that one at a later date.

For today, we have the numbers yesterday’s earnings plays recorded for the session. Those were the TSLA Weekly $157.50-162.50 Calls, the BA Weekly $172.50-177.50 Calls, the BSX 05/17 $72.50-75 Calls, and the TXN Weekly $175-177.50 Calls, and their performances were as follows:

Good Movers, Friday’s Fresh Plays

Wrapping Up Another Strong Trading Week:

With the high volume of earnings reporters this week, we have been arming ourselves and our readers with some rather solid options ideas. All but one of the five options ideas we signaled in Thursday’s premarket report ended up returning good opportunities to turn a quick profit. The markets themselves had a bit of a mixed session, appearing strong in the early goings before petering out prior to lunch hour and sliding into the close.

That didn’t stop most of our ideas from putting forth some very nice intraday performances for us. The winning contract sets we were tracking were the SPY 10/28 $386-383 Puts, the HON Weekly $195-200 Calls, the SHEL 11/18 $55-57.50 Calls, and the NVDA Weekly $133-135 Calls, and these were the potential profits that presented themselves therein:

SPY 10/28 $386-383 Puts
$386:
 3.39-10.00 (+195%)
$385: 2.87-9.26 (+223%)
$384: 2.81-8.44 (+200%)
$383: 2.02-7.59 (+276%)
_____

HON Weekly $195-200 Calls
$195:
 1.00-4.79 (+379%)
$197.50: .55-2.65 (+381%)
$200: .20-1.28 (+540%)
_____

SHEL 11/18 $55-57.50 Calls
$55: 1.90-2.68 (+41%)
