A Winning Wednesday, 5 Fresh Picks

Wednesday’s Winners:

In yesterday morning’s premarket report, we placed a trio of potential options trading ideas on watch, and were pleased with the intraday performances on all three of them. Generally, we don’t often miss on our quick-strike (weekly expiration) ideas. We like to occasionally mix in longer-term swing trade ideas that may take awhile to come to fruition, but our strongest suit is definitely ID’ing plays for ‘today’ on any given day.

Yesterday’s plays were the PDD Weekly $149-152.50 Calls, the GIS Weekly $71-72 Calls, and the INTC Weekly $42.50-43.50 Calls, and all three sets of calls fared rather well. Here were the performances they laid down:

Monday’s Movers:

Things got off to a subdued but solid start to the week yesterday. There were no interesting earnings releases to be had, and our premarket report contained just three potential options trading targets.

We just keep slogging along, doing our best to generate daily interests, and anticipating the coming of the next earnings season which is headed our way shortly.

More Flawless Options Performance, New Ideas

Another Straight Flush of Options Ideas:

Our daily options ideas that we formulated for yesterday morning’s premarket report contained a varied mix of bullish and bearish targets as well as expiration dates, and thanks to a generally volatile session for stocks in general, all four of those plays put together some pretty good intraday moves for us.

We were targeting the IIVI 09/16 $55-60 Calls, the WOOF Weekly $15.50-14.50 Puts, the LZB 09/16 $30 Calls, and the JWN Weekly $21-20 Puts, and the very nice intraday runs and total possible gains for shrewd traders on these ideas were as follows:

IIVI 09/16 $55-60 Calls
$55: 
2.05-3.70 (+80%)
$60: .60-1.26 (+110%)

Using the SPY to Our Advantage, 3 Fresh Ideas

SPY Puts Surge: 

Once again yesterday, the markets losses are our gains. Our lone options trading idea for the day focused upon a dim view of the SPY, and with another precipitous decline for stocks, we hit the nail right on the head. This is among the reasons why our readers see SPY plays in our newsletters on a highly regular basis, as it tends to be easier to predict the actions of the markets as a whole than it is do so the same for just one. The SPY also sees a lot of intraday volatility which can often lead to opportunities on both sides of the fence in a single session.

In terms of yesterday morning, due to a bit of a drought of earnings reporters, our premarket report contained only one idea, which was the SPY 06/13 $385-383 Puts. Those targets offered up the chance at the following really nice intraday profit chances:

 SPY 06/13 $385-383 Puts
$385: 4.24-11.01 (+160%)
$384: 3.46-10.50 (+203%)
$383: 2.84-9.67 (+240%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
ORCL Weekly $70-72.50 Calls
COP Weekly $110-112 Calls
FERG Weekly $100-110 Calls


ProText Mobility, Inc. TXTM – Recap:

We also wanted to provide a quick recap on the run in TXTM yesterday. We last flagged this play for observation in an extended watchlist a few weeks back, subsequent to which the stock was trading for as little as .0016. Yesterday, on an immense amount of volume, the stock surged as high as .0049, which marks a 206% swing over our observed low.
