Options Review, 6-Pack of Fresh Targets

Thursday’s Options Recap:

First thing’s first this morning, we need to apologize for lack of a report for yesterday’s session. We were experiencing a power outage due to the massive winter storm that swept across the eastern half of the country over the weekend. But we’re back in the saddle today, hopefully to hit the ground running on another solid trading week. We had four possible plays that we highlighted for Friday’s session, and we’ll go over those before we jump into some new ideas today.

Friday’s premarket report contained the INTC Weekly $48.50-47.50 Puts, the ISRG Weekly $540-542.50 Puts, the CSX Weekly $35.50 Calls, and the AA Weekly $62 Puts. The best moves those targets exhibited on the day were as follows:

Monday’s Runners, 5 New Possibilities

Good Start to the Week:

It was another reasonably good session for us as we opened things up for the week yesterday. We had three plays in our premarket report and saw instant gratification on two of them. It’s always important to remember that when we select options with expirations beyond the current week, it can be a few sessions before we really see the kind of results we’re after.

Our winning targets from yesterday’s report were the CLF Weekly $9.50-10 Calls, the VZ Weekly $41.50-42.50 Calls, and those did quite nicely, posting double and triple-bag moves on Monday:

CLF Weekly $9.50-10 Calls
$9.50: .68-1.50 (+121%)
$10: .28-1.03 (+268%)
_____

VZ Weekly $41.50-42.50 Calls
$41.50: .59-1.61 (+173%)
$42: .33-1.19 (+261%)
$42.50: .18-.77 (+328%)

Fresh Options Ideas:
PM Weekly $175-172.50 Puts
LMT Weekly $427.50-422.50 Puts
NOC 08/15 $525-535 Calls
MEDP 08/15 $430-440 Calls
