Friday Recap, Fresh Options Ideas

Friday’s Movers:

We got along quite well as we closed out the short trading week on Friday with a slate of four possible options plays, and saw gains ranging from good to great in three of those four targets. The markets got off to a bullish start, and after lunch hour, reversed track and fell into the close. That provided plenty of intraday activity to facilitate some very nice upswings in our daily targets.

We had the BABA Weekly $85-87 Calls, the RIVN Weekly $21.50-22.50 Calls, and the LEVI 07/21 $14-13 Puts all come through with the following intraday runs:

BABA Weekly $85-87 Calls

Wrapping Up the Short Trading Week with New Ideas

Options Reviews:

In an extremely rare occurrence, neither of the targets we were looking at in yesterday’s report turned in worthwhile performances on the day. We really can’t recall the last time that happened, if ever, but as we always say, nobody can win them all. Instead of reviewing those, we have updates on a handful of longer term plays that we’ve recently flagged.

We initially selected the PDCO 07/21 $31-33 Calls in our report on June 21st, the KBH 07/21 $50 Puts in the following day’s report, and the PAYX 07/21 $110-115 Calls on the morning of June 29th. Here are the figures on the upswings and new highs we’ve seen from these plays this week.

PDCO 07/21 $31-33 Calls
$31: .15-2.35 (+1467%)
$32: .10-1.50 (+1400%)
$33: .15-.85 (+467%)

KBH 07/21 $50 Puts
$50: .08-2.05 (+2462%)

PAYX 07/21 $110-115 Calls
$110:
 1.76-4.40 (+150%)

Thursday’s Runners, Fresh Plays

Recapping Thursday’s Winners:

We’re ready to jump back into the swing of things here on this Monday morning, but first, we’ll backtrack to the end of the short trading week on Thursday and take a look at what our daily interests were able to accomplish. In our premarket report, we had signaled a group of four ideas that we felt had reasonable potential for the session, and fared pretty well in each case.

Our targets were the STZ Weekly $220-225 Calls, the LEVI 04/21 $18 Puts, the LW 04/21 $105 Calls, and the BA 05/05 $220-210 Puts, and with the exception of the BA $220’s which were too far in the money to see a good move, every one of our tracked contract sets recorded a nice intraday run. Here’s the breakdown of those figures:

STZ Weekly $220-225 Calls
$220:
 4.64-6.50 (+40%)
$222.50: 2.90-5.50 (+90%)
$225: 3.24-6.30 (+94%)

Closing Out a Short Yet Sweet Trading Week

Wednesday’s Options Runners:

We were running a little light yesterday with regard to the slate of earnings reporters from which we had to choose some daily options plays, but that didn’t stop us from producing a pair of solid runners on the day in our premarket report. Both of the ideas we ventured possible targets in, recorded some significant intraday movement for us in a positive direction.

Our areas of interest were the SMPL 04/21 $40-35 Puts, and the DLO 04/21 $16-15 Puts, and while the potential gains they produced weren’t life-changing, they were certainly very respectable, as they put up the following figures for the session:

SMPL 04/21 $40-35 Puts
$40:
 3.30-4.50 (+36%)
$35: .30-.75 (+150%)
_____

DLO 04/21 $16-15 Puts
$16:
 1.32-3.70 (+180%)
$15: .65-3.00 (+362%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
STZ Weekly $220-225 Calls*
LEVI 04/21 $18 Puts
LW 04/21 $105 Calls
BA 05/05 $220-210 Puts

*We do not recommend you try to trade options on their day of expiration unless you are an experienced trader with access to disposable funds.

Friday’s Big Winners, Fresh SPY Plays

Huge Close to Last Week:

We closed out the trading week on Friday in a big way, with both of the sets of October options targets that we signaled going on to record some quite substantial moves and total possible gains for anyone who was tracking the plays we highlighted. Additionally, we had more new highs in the STZ Puts we’d been tracking from the session, as well as a massive move from another play from Thursday morning.

All in all it was an explosion of gains in many of the targets we’ve been focused on, making for an excellent finish to the week.
