5-Pack of Earnings Plays & More

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: Bucking the Trend

HUYA Inc. HUYA – Bucking the Trend

Despite the markets as a whole precipitating the worst single-session drop-off of 2019 thus far, yesterday morning we included an options idea for HUYA on the heels of its earnings, and the stock was able to buck the overall market trend.

We had the HUYA Weekly $21-22 Calls on watch for the day, and all three contract sets afforded traders the chance at multi-bag gains on the day, flying in the face of the bloodbath that was occurring elsewhere.

The total potential profits on the table for those HUYA options were as follows:

$21 Calls – Range: .58-1.30 – Max Gain: 124%
$21.50 Calls – Range: .40-.95  – Max Gain: 138%
$22 Calls – Range: .20-.70 – Max Gain: 250%

**We published the right ranges, but the wrong set of gains in error this morning. Our apologies. The table has now been updated to reflect the correct percentage gains.


More Fresh Options Ideas:

Stock futures are headed back up this morning, at least in the premarket, on the heels of Walmart’s earnings report. We’re going to formulate a corresponding idea for that chain, as well as the SPY, and Alibaba which also reported its earnings today.

SPY Weekly $284.50-286 Calls
WMT Weekly $111-114 Calls
BABA Weekly $165-170 Calls 


Red Rocks Resort, Inc. RRR

To finish things up this morning, we’re going to place RRR on watch for a potential recovery n the days and weeks ahead. We noticed a series of Form-4 buys coming in at the bottom following the company’s earnings beat last week, to the tune of more than $20M.

You can also see that the MACD, one of our go-to indicators, is ripening for a bullish cross at any time. The volatility potential is here as well. We’ll want to radar RRR for a rebound going forward.
