Thursday’s Movers, Friday’s Targets

Options Recap:

As we head into the end of what has been a very productive week, we’re going to take a minute to reflect on the excellent job we’ve done weathering the earnings drought which is set to end on Monday day morning. We’re sure to have plenty of ideas to come from that, but in the meantime, we’ve held our own with our daily options ideas.

Big Time Options Movers: 

We are cruising right along on the options front as we head through the midweek. We always seem to manage finding single-session, multi-bag opportunities, and this week has been no different whatsoever, We’ve seen a lot of good volatility over these couple of days, which is a quick strike trader’s best friend.

Solid Options Runners, Fresh Plays

Starting Off the Week on a High Note: 

We hopped back into the saddle to kick off the fresh trading week yesterday morning, and we certainly got off on the right foot. We offered three separate options trading ideas for our readers in our premarket report, The results that those returned were not earth shattering, but still, every single contrqact we signaled experienced respectable intraday moves.

Our areas of interest were the MRNS 04/14 $10-9 Puts, the PCOR 04/14 $60-65 Calls , and the PDD Weekly $44-46 Calls. As we mentioned above, the gains aren’t going to send anyone off to an early retirement, but they were more than sufficient for an honest day’s pay.

The trading ranges and total possible profits on those targets were as follows: 

MRNS 04/14 $10-9 Puts
$10:
 1.18-1.60 (+36%)
$9: .40-1.00 (+150%)

Getting Back on Track for a Fresh Trading Week

New Options Highs: 

First thing’s first, to start off this fresh trading week we’d like to apologize for the lack of a newsletter on Friday morning. We have only missed a couple of trading days in our entire history, and this time a power outage at our offices prevented us from doing our normal work, but we’re back in the saddle fully powered up and ready for another solid week of stock and options speculation!

So what we’re going to do before we hop right back on track, is go over the new highs that our options ideas from Wednesday morning registered to close things out on Friday, and then we’ll jump in with some fresh options ideas for today. As you can see in Wednesday’s report, we were tracking the YY Weekly $29-32 Calls, the BABA Weekly $85-90 Calls, and the DKNG 06/17 $20 Calls.

With the exception of the YY $29’s, we got new highs in all of these plays on Friday, so these figures represent the total possible gains in a two-day swing in these targets:

Gauging the SPY, Fresh Plays

Another Excellent Day for Options:

We kept the options train rolling along the tracks yesterday morning, when we were just patting ourselves on the back for going 3-for-3 on Tuesday’s options ideas. We then of course formulated a fresh selection of potential targets to observe, and for the second consecutive session, we saw some really nice moves in all of them.

Our areas of interest for the day were the MDB Weekly $305-315 Calls, the THO 03/18 $90-95 Calls, and the CRCT 03/22 $10 Puts, and they didn’t let us down. There were fine opportunities across the board, and they were as follows:

MDB Weekly $305-315 Calls
$305:
 18.10-36.00 (+99%)
$310: 13.50-28.87 (+114%)
$315: 11.35-25.70 (+126%)
_____

THO 03/18 $90-95 Calls
$90: 2.00-4.50 (+125%)
$95: .90-2.24 (+149%)
_____

CRCT 03/22 $10 Puts
$10: .50-.75 (+50%)


Fresh Options Ideas: 

As we all know by now, here’s been a lot of volatility added to the markets via the uncertainty generated by the ongoing Russian attacks on the Ukraine, and today we’re going to straddle the fence a bit after some rather flat CPI figures came in this morning. We’re going to signal a set of SPY strikes, and leave it for our readers to gauge which way the wind is blowing, and whether to go bearish or bullish at any given moment today. We’ve also got a couple of earnings plays to add the mix as well.

SPY 03/11 $422-424 Calls
SPY 03/11 $424-422 Puts
JD Weekly $60-58 Puts
ASAN 03/18 $40-35 Puts
