Shorts Yield Dividends, Fresh Ideas to Close out the Week

Bearish Signals Pay Off:

We got things back on track in a big way for yesterday morning’s premarket report, with regard to our daily options ideas. It is an extremely rare occurrence that we would signal a full slate with nothing but bearish targets, but that’s exactly how things shook out yesterday, and it worked to our advantage.

The collection of puts that we were tracking for the day were the MDB Weekly $280-275 Puts, the OKTA Weekly $78-75 Puts, the CIEN 09/16 $55-45 Puts, and the SPY 09/02 $395-393 Puts, and thanks partly to the early downturn in the markets right from the opening bell, these were the caliber of gain opportunities that awaited us with these ideas:

Going Bearish on Options Targets, GEGI Update

Note on Wednesday’s Absence:

We wanted to start out this morning by apologizing to our readers for being unable to deliver a newsletter for yesterday’s session due to an unfortunate technical issue with the internet at our office. In the history of our archive site bluehorshoestocks.com, which stretches back over 11 years, one could count the number of trading days we’ve missed on one hand, so you can rest assured that this is not a typical occurrence! At any rate, we’re back online and ready to keep chugging along as we head into the upcoming long weekend.

First off, our top runner from where we left off on Tuesday morning turned out to be the BBY Weekly $74 Calls, which subsequently made a move from 2.40-5.70 (+138%). As for getting back on track today, we’ve got some big name earnings reporters from a variety of sectors for potential trades.


Fresh Options Ideas:
MDB Weekly $280-275 Puts
OKTA Weekly $78-75 Puts
CIEN 09/16 $55-45 Puts
SPY 09/02 $395-393 Puts


Genesis Electronics Group, Inc. GEGI – OTC Update:

We’ve been tracking GEGI for quite some time, having tagged it in our daily watchlists five times in the month of August alone, and stretching back to early July when we caught it trading as low as .0018. Yesterday the stock hit a new all-time high of .0197, which marks an amazing overall increase of 994% making it one of the hottest OTC plays we’ve track all summer long.

Even if someone had only caught our most recent alert on GEGI on the morning of August 24th when GEGI was trading at .008, the stock still recorded a rapid run of 146%

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
