SPY Shorts Prevail, Fresh Ideas

Friday Options Recap:

We put up a fairly good performance on Friday, with both of the quick-strike options ideas we had formulated in our premarket report for the day recording significant movement during the session. The markets in general continued to get beat up, leaving our ideas which were both bearish, to make some pretty good headway for us.

Our winning targets were the SPY 09/16 $387-384 Puts, and the ADBE Weekly $305-300 Puts. , and while the potential gains for the day weren’t earth-shattering we’d still call the following numbers to be quite solid considering the lack of earnings ammunition we’re dealing with at present. As we always say, during dry spells for earnings we have to get a bit more creative than usual, but that will never stop us from giving it the old college try!

SPY 09/16 $387-384 Puts
$387: 2.39-5.05 (+111%)
$386: 1.85-4.15 (+124%)

More Options Gainers, Fresh Plays

Options Rehash:

As we’ve already mentioned this week, the landscape for earnings reporters and the subsequent frenzy they produce has been growing thin once again as we head into another quiet period. We won’t let that stop us from rooting out the best ideas we can, and yesterday’s quick-strike play, the DOOO Weekly $70-75 Calls, worked pretty well for us.

Additionally, we signaled a possible longer-term play, the AFG 09/16 $130-132 Calls in a report from a couple of weeks back, which made a noteworthy move we’ve like to review as well.

DOOO Weekly $70-75 Calls
$70: 3.02-5.50 (+233%)
$75: .70-2.85 (+307%)

Kicking the Tires on a Fresh Trading Week

Friday’s Options Runners:

We hope everyone enjoyed the last long weekend until the holidays, and is as ready as we are to hop back into trading action. We ended last week on a fairly positive note, having selected three potential options targets for observation and observing considerable gains in each of them. We are now seeing a considerable drop-off in daily reporters after what was an amazing earning season, but as always, we’ll seek out opportunities and make them work for us!

Our targets from Friday morning’s premarket report worked for us, and they were the AVGO Weekly $495-510 Calls, the LULU Weekly $315-322.50 Calls, and the HCP 09/16 $35-40 Calls. The LULU targets in the low end of the range were our biggest winners of the session, making moves that topped 300%
