Options Recaps, 5-Pack of Fresh Ideas

Recapping Friday’s Movers:  

Things played out very much like we suspected they would on Friday, as we capped off an exceptional trading week with some solid options ideas. We came up with a pair of quick-strike plays, as well as a couple of longer-term targets with September expirations. Both of the weekly ideas we floated ended up posting some pretty good intraday upswings.

Those ideas were the NVDA Weekly $420 Puts and the IONQ Weekly $14.50-15 Calls, and each of them produced the following multibag gain possibilities on the day:

NVDA Weekly $420 Puts
$420: 
3.45-13.43 (+289%)
_____

IONQ Weekly $14.50-15 Calls
$14.50: .93-3.10 (+233%)
$15: .50-2.65 (+430%)
_____

We also saw new highs in the APP 08/18 $35-37.50 Calls which we flagged for observation on Thursday and reported on Friday. That considerably increased the percentage gains we had seen the previous session. The following figures represent the overall two-day swing:

APP 08/18 $35-37.50 Calls
$35: 
.70-4.50 (+543%)
$37.50: .24-2.35 (+879%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
NVDA Weekly $410-405 Puts
TSLA Weekly $237.50-235 Puts
MNDY Weekly $160-165 Calls
X Weekly $28.50-29.50 Calls

Earnings-Related Options Ideas & More

Monday’s Options Review:

We kicked off the week in solid form in our premarket report yesterday morning, despite lacking a large slate of earnings reporters off of which to base our daily ideas. All three of the quick-strike options targets we offered up for the day turned in winning cards. We had a much longer term with a June expiration as well, but we can come back for those at a later date.

In the meantime, our fresh targets to kick things off on Monday morning were the SPY 05/15 $411-412 Calls, the MNDY Weekly $145-155 Calls, and the SHAK Weekly $66-67 Calls and here are the numbers thy put up for us on the session:

SPY 05/15 $411-412 Calls
$411:
 .59-2.48 (+320%)
$412: .28-1.58 (+464%)

MNDY Weekly $145-155 Calls
$145: 4.00-9.40 (+135%)
$150: 2.50-6.00 (+140%)
$155: 1.60-3.80 (+137%)

SHAK Weekly $66-67 Calls
$66: 2.75-5.70 (+107%)

4 Fresh Ideas for a New Trading Week

Friday Options Recap:

It was a little bit of a subdued finish to what was an otherwise fairly exciting week of trading on Friday. We had a limited slate of earnings reporters on the day, but still formed a few ideas that managed to make some early moves. The percentage gains weren’t quite on a level that would get us overexcited, but all contracts involved did make reasonable moves, with one lone exception.

Those ideas that we were tracking were the SPB 05/19 $65-70 Calls, the TSLA Weekly $175-177.50 Calls, and the SPY 05/12 $412.50-413 Calls. Here’s how their early positive movement played out in terms of total possible gains for quick traders:

SPB 05/19 $65-70 Calls 
$70: .83-1.69 (+104%)
_____

TSLA Weekly $175-177.50 Calls
$175:

We’ve also been tracking the IFF 05/19 $95-90 Puts since our report from this past Tuesday the 9th, and IFF continued to decline all week, leading to some really nice new highs in those targets:
