Lossless Thursday, 5 Plays to End the Week

Thursday’s Big Plays:

Even with our level of acumen, which makes missing on daily options ideas rather rare around here, it’s always exciting when we have a chance to complete a perfect week. But that’s what we’re faced with today, having yet to falter on a single target this week. A green slate today would complete that feat, because once again on Thursday, everything we signaled in our daily premarket report recorded sizable intraday upswings of which traders could have taken advantage.

We were zeroed in on the AZN Weekly $64-62 Puts, the DIS Weekly $105-107 Calls, the PYPL Weekly $61-59 Puts, and the ARM Weekly $96-98 Calls. Here were the moves they made on the day, which ranged from moderate to downright eye-popping:

Options Reviews, Fresh Ideas

Options Runners:

We’re ready to kick off a fresh trading week today, but before we can dive into what’s looking ripe for the picking this morning, of course we need to go over the solid gains that occurred in our targeted options plays from Friday morning’s premarket report.

Three of our four designated set of options ideas on the day panned out to some significant gain opportunities for us. We were looking at the EXPE Weekly $202.50-207.50 Calls, the F Weekly $17.50-18 Calls, and the NET Weekly $119-122 Calls. The moves we witnessed weren’t eye-popping, but they were very respectable, especially considering how poorly things went for the markets in general.

Here were the total intraday runs and possible profits associated with those targets:

EXPE Weekly $202.50-207.50 Calls
$202.50:
 1.69-4.75 (+181%)
