Big Moves Thursday, 6-Pack of Fresh Plays

Wrapping Up a Great Trading Week:

This has been one heck of an options trading week for us. With plenty of earnings reporters to take advantage of, we have been knocking homers out of the park daily, and yesterday was no exception. We floated five potential plays in our premarket report, and the four with their expiration set for today produced big intraday moves. We’ll also have a nice big slate with both quick-strike, and longer-term interests for today, so it should be an interest close to a fantastic trading week.

Yesterday’s movers and shakers were the META Weekly $290-285 Puts, the IBM Weekly $137-139 Calls, the NOW Weekly $547.50-555 Calls, and the BMY Weekly $55-53 Puts, and here were the types of intraday moves they made, and the total possible gains those presented:
