Markets Crashing, Bears Cashing!

Options Updates:

In these exceptionally volatile times, it’s always good to have both long and short targets, depending on which way the wind is blowing. With the help of yet another bloody day for the markets at large, the bearish ideas we’ve been tracking in MAR all week tacked on some impressive new highs, and the new CYBR Puts we added in fresh for yesterday’s report immediately went exponential.

In the case of MAR, these numbers represent 2-day swings, and for CYBR, we’ve got yesterday’s intraday ranges:  

MAR Weekly $86.50-85 Puts
$86.50:
2.80-11.72 (+319%)
$86: 2.70-11.27 (+317%)
$85.50: 2.20-9.07 (+312%)
$85: 2.13-10.00 (+369%)
______

CYBR Weekly $107-104 Puts 

$107: 2.70-11.90 (+341%)
$106: 2.80-9.87 (+253%)
$105: 2.26-10.00 (+342%)
$104: 2.40-9.00 (+275%)

With the aforementioned winds once again blowing in a bearish direction this morning, we’ll keep an eye out for even more new highs in these plays. We’ll also add in a related idea for the SPDR S&P 500 ETF, and put the SPY Weekly $280-278 Puts on watch into tomorrow.

MAR Puts, BSGM Updates

Marriot International, Inc. MAR – Update

The markets took a late dive yesterday afternoon, and as they plunged, it helped our bearish idea on MAR realize some nice new gains. We were just reporting on the MAR Weekly $86.50-85 Puts in yesterday’s report, with what were only nominal gains at the time. Today the figures are looking far more impressive.

Even after the company’s CEO somewhat brashly called MAR stock ‘a bottom’, traders did not agree as it took a considerable hit and headed lower. That produced the following opportunities in our targeted puts;

MAR Weekly $86.50-85 Puts
$86.50:
2.80-7.00 (+150%)
$86:2.70-6.60 (+144%)
$85.50: 2.20-5.02 (+128%)
$85: 2.13-5.97 (+180%)

BioSig Technologies, Inc. BSGM

We have been tracking BSGM pretty closely this spring, and the stock has put together an incredible performance. Subsequent to our alert of this play roughly 5 weeks ago on April 7th, it registered a low of 3.45/share. The company has been doing trials for potential coronavirus treatments with the drugs Merimepodib and Remdesivir.

After stacking gains on top of gains and essentially going up continuously with very few daily exceptions, BSGM arrived at a new high of 12.43 yesterday. That represents an increase of 260% in just over a month’s time!

We will certainly continue to track BSGM’s progress and keep our ears to the track for any further developments in the company’s quest for a viable COVID-19 treatment.

Panic Buying/Selling Goes Viral

Co-Diagnostic Inc. CODX – Review

The last time we mentioned CODX in one of our reports was toward the end of last month, and at the time the coronavirus was not inspiring as much fear as it is presently, but the stock had still already begun to trade high volume and edge upward.

Now, with the CDC warning of a potential pandemic, even as some public officials attempt to downplay the significance, fear-buying has driven up stocks like CODX, which happened to be the #2 gainer on the NASDAQ yesterday. It enabled new highs for us, and we’ve now seen CODX run from a low of 1.52 up to 10.89 in just over a month’s time! That’s a fantastic increase of 616%

The stock has broken $14 in the premarket, so our observed range stands to increase significantly today.


Vaxart Inc. VXRT

Speaking of coronavirus plays, we signaled VXRT on January 31st and promptly provided an update this month on the 4th, and it too has enjoyed a fear-powered run up the chart.

Our initially observed low on this play was .956, and as of yesterday’s new high of 1.91 that works out to an upswing of 99% With the stock on the verge of hurtling upward into blue skies, (over $2 in the premarket) we’re going to want to continue to keep an eye peeled for further activity.
