Closing in On a Perfect Options Trading Week?

Sweeping the Board Yet Again:

It has been one heck of a week for us with regard to our performance on the various options plays we’ve been tracking day to day. For the fourth straight session this week, all of the ideas contained in yesterday’s premarket report ended up posting good numbers on the day. Should all of this morning’s fresh plays yield intraday gain opportunities, that will make the whole week miss-free on our part, which would be an exceedingly impressive feat.

That’s how hot we’ve been, and we’re more than pleased to share it with our followers. Yesterday’s targets were the IBM Weekly $126-128 Calls, the UNP Weekly $200-192.50 Puts, and the TSLA Weekly $210-205 Puts, and here are the potential profit chances they offered us during the session:

Winning Options Plays, 4 Fresh Ideas

Options Reviews:

Despite only having a single earnings reporter yesterday morning off of which we could base an options idea, we managed to turn up some pretty good opportunities including a couple multi-bag gain chances.

That lone fresh play was for the PEP Weekly $162.50-167.50 Calls, and they did post some nice intraday moves. In addition, we have a couple of updates on some longer term calls that we signaled in reports from last week. For the CAT 11/04 $180-185 Calls, we alerted these calls on last Wednesday the 5th, while the UNFI 11/18 $35 Calls were an idea we formulated on September 30th. Both have performed rather nicely, and give a good example of why we like to include a mix of quick-strike plays with longer-term ideas.

PEP Weekly $162.50-167.50 Calls 
$162.50: 4.55-8.10 (+78%)
$165: 2.77-6.02 (+117%)
$167.50: 1.40-4.05 (+189%)

AZZ Multibagger, PEP Options Idea

AZZ Targets Run:

Things were rather thin yesterday morning in terms of potential options ideas that jumped out to us as we were searching for new potential plays. We only had one earnings reporter on the day, and that happened to be AZZ. We decided to go bearish on that, and it turned out to be a pretty good idea. Things will be picking back up for earnings next week, so we have that to forward to, but for now we’re still just getting along as best we can.

We targeted the AZZ 10/21 $40-35 Puts, and while the gain chances they generated didn’t shatter the earth, it was still quite a respectable outing, with the $35’s yielding a really nice multibag rip. Here were the ranges and total possible profits to made off of yesterday’s AZZ Puts.

AZZ 10/21 $40-35 Puts
$366: 6.30-8.98 (+43%)
$367: 1.50-4.80 (+220%)


Fresh Options Ideas: 
PEP Weekly $162.50-167.50 Calls 


ProText Mobility Inc. TXTM – OTC Recap: 

A lot of our regular readers will recognize TXTM as an OTC play that we’ve tracked pretty consistently over the recent past, and one that has been producing solid swing trade opportunities. After our most recent alert on September 27th, the stock has posted a run from a low of .0071 up to .0146, which is a double-bag increase of 106%
