Monday’s Runners, 4 Fresh Earnings Plays

Good Start to the Trading Week:  

We got things off on a decent foot for the week yesterday morning. There weren’t a heck of a lot of earnings reporters off of which to base our daily options targets, but we managed to zero in on a pair of potential plays in our premarket report. It was a special day for us, as we celebrated the 12 year anniversary of our online archives at BlueHorseshoeStocks.com. If you missed our message to our readers, take a second to go check it out!

Earnings Plays Paying Off: 

We entered a nice mix of options plays both bearish and bullish in our report yesterday morning based on earnings. We were targeting contracts in the TSLA, GE, and RTX chains, specifically the UPS Weekly $210-205 Puts, the GE Weekly $12.50-13 Calls, and the RTX Weekly $86.50-87.50 Calls.

Those targets recorded some very respectable moves on the day, with a fair few breaking into double-bag territory. We can’t always guarantee that our daily ideas will bear fruit, but it’s always nice when we score a 100% success rate. For our newer readers, this actually happens with a frequency that we’re very proud of, and believe you will be impressed with!

Here were the intraday ranges and total possible gains in those plays: 

UPS Weekly $210-205 Puts
$210:
12.70-19.55 (+50%)
$207.50: 11.01-16.79 (+51%)
$205: 8.45-14.79 (+54%)

GE Weekly $12.50-13 Calls
$12.50: .42-.71 (+356%)
$13: .14-.31 (+137%)

RTX Weekly $86.50-87.50 Calls
$86.50: 
1.51-2.87 (+51%)

Probability Media Corp. PBYA – Recap:

We’d also like to recap the performance of an OTC play we’ve been tracking this month. We tagged PBYA in yesterday morning’s extended watchlist and the stock ran for a respectable 56% from .0085-.0133.

For anyone who caught our earlier alert on this play a few weeks ago on the 7th, subsequent to which time it was trading for as little as .0035, yesterday’s high represented an overall move of 280%

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Fresh Options Idea & More

Campbell Soup Co. CPB – Options Update

We opened up the week yesterday with a fresh options idea, designating the CPB Weekly $30.50-$42 Calls for observation, and we were pleased to be met with potential gains across the board. While not every contract set was a huge runner, they all made gains, including 4 out of 6 recording multi-bag performances on the day.

$30.50 Calls – Range: 2.26-3.12 – Max Gain: 38%
$40 Calls – Range: 1.00-3.00 – Max Gain: 200%
$40.50 Calls – Range: 1.63-2.00 – Max Gain: 23%
$41 Calls – Range: .95-2.10 – Max Gain: 121%
$41.50 Calls – Range: .80-1.80 – Max Gain: 125%
$42 Calls – Range: .60-1.50 – Max Gain: 150%

With the way CPB stock itself behaved, we’ll be very interested to continue to keep an eye on the activity in these plays as the week progresses.


Fresh Options Idea – Harley-Davidson, Inc. HOG

As promised, we also have another fresh options idea today. Harley announced plans to shift some of its US production overseas to avoid EU tariffs over the weekend, and was promptly slammed by Donald Trump.

This has caused a clear over-reaction by enough traders/investors as well as a spike in short interest which is driving the stock down rapidly. It is approaching a multi-bottom setup on the chart, and we’re going to want to be ready to take advantage when the rebound occurs.

We’re going to signal the HOG 08/03 $43-44 Calls, and remain watchful over HOG in the days and weeks ahead for a rebound that could be coming at any time.
