Friday’s Fab Five, Fresh Ideas to Kick Off the Week

Friday’s Flawless Options Run:

We definitely closed out the trading week on Friday morning in grand fashion, after offering up a nice slate of five possible options plays in our premarket report. We were feeling bullish about every one of those ideas, and with the help of a massively green session for the markets as a whole, we saw some excellent intraday opportunities come our way.

It was another sweep of the board, with all five of our tracked targets exhibiting good intraday movement. We were looking at the SPY 05/05 $406-407.50 Calls, the AAPL Weekly $165-170 Calls, the CI Weekly $247.50-250 Calls, the JCI 05/19 $60-62.50 Calls, and the CVNA Weekly $9.50-10 Calls, and none of them disappointed with their activity. Here’s the rundown of their daily performances:

We’re closing things out this week on a very strong note, with yesterday’s session delivering us incredible across-the-board success on the options ideas we designated for observation in our premarket report. It was the third straight day that every single fresh idea we’ve put forth has returned with excellent intraday performances.
