Fresh Ideas for Big Name Earnings & More

Weekly Options Pop Off:

The back and forth choppiness of the markets recently has really been something to see, and after a rough start to the week on Monday, yesterday’s session flipped and went very bullish. Of the three quick-strike options trading ideas that we formulated in our premarket report, all three produced some very nice gain opportunities. We’ll hold off on the set of August calls we hashed out for NVS, and just focus on the short term plays.

Those contract sets targeted were the HAL Weekly $28.50-29.50 Calls, the JNJ Weekly $172.50-177.50 Calls, and the IBM Weekly $134-131 Puts. They all turned in good cards for the day, and provided ourselves and our readers with the following intraday gain chances:

HAL Weekly $28.50-29.50 Calls 
$28.50: .80-1.29 (+61%)

Multi-Baggers Coming Left and Right

OTC Runners Review: 

It is often difficult to divert our full attention from options trading, especially during such a fruitful time, but we’ll only depart momentarily for updates on some excellent moves on stock side of things that were borne from yesterday morning’s extended watchlist.

A NASDAQ and an OTC play, respectively, we were tracking NURO & GLCO and surprisingly enough, it was the big board play that busted the double-bag barrier with a huge move on the day. GLCO turned in a very respectable intraday mope as well.

NeuroMetrix, Inc. NURO
Alerted: July 21st
Range: 15.75-38.67
Gained: +146%

Global Links Corp. GLCO
Alerted: July 21st
Range: .0063-.0105
Gained: +67%

Also fresh for yesterday morning’s premarket report was a three pack of options ideas, two of those ideas made major moves that could have facilitated some sizable profits for day traders.
