Solid Start to the Week, Loads of Fresh Ideas

Monday’s Movers:  

As we cautioned in yesterday’s report, we were without a slate of earnings reporters to base our ideas off of yesterday, so we simply went with a couple of old familiar targets, and we ended up faring pretty well with those plays. Thankfully, we aren’t in the same boat today, with plenty of earnings hitting the wire between yesterday’s close and today’s open.

In the meantime, here are the figures from our ideas yesterday, which were the TSLA Weekly $240-245 Calls, and the SPY 08/28 $440-442 Calls. They posted the following profit potential for yesterday’s session, and as you can see, those SPY Calls were the real stars of the day:

TSLA Weekly $240-245 Calls
$240:
3.20-4.85 (+52%)
$242.50: 2.45-3.72 (+52%)
$245: 1.83-2.83 (+55%)

SPY 08/28 $440-442 Calls

$440: 1.15-3.28(+185%)
$441: .54-2.36 (+337%)
$442: .16-1.39 (+769%)

Run of Success Continues, 4 New Earnings Ideas

Another Beautiful Options Trading Session:

We kept things moving along at a solid pace yesterday, with our trend of successful options ideas being extended yet another day. Out of four potential ideas in our premarket report which included a total of twelve sets of contracts/possible strike points, only one set of that dozen failed to produce notable intraday upswings.

We’d call that pretty high, accuracy-wise, and that’s what we expect from ourselves on a daily basis. Yesterday’s plays were the, the AMD Weekly $117-119 Calls, the HUM Weekly $475-485 Calls, the EA Weekly $132-130 Puts, and the EMR Weekly $94-96 Calls, and here’s the rundown of the intraday pops they recorded on the session:
