Monday’s Runners, 5 New Possibilities

Good Start to the Week:

It was another reasonably good session for us as we opened things up for the week yesterday. We had three plays in our premarket report and saw instant gratification on two of them. It’s always important to remember that when we select options with expirations beyond the current week, it can be a few sessions before we really see the kind of results we’re after.

Our winning targets from yesterday’s report were the CLF Weekly $9.50-10 Calls, the VZ Weekly $41.50-42.50 Calls, and those did quite nicely, posting double and triple-bag moves on Monday:

CLF Weekly $9.50-10 Calls
$9.50
: .68-1.50 (+121%)
$10: .28-1.03 (+268%)
_____

VZ Weekly $41.50-42.50 Calls
$41.50
: .59-1.61 (+173%)
$42: .33-1.19 (+261%)
$42.50: .18-.77 (+328%)



Fresh Options Ideas:
PM Weekly $175-172.50 Puts
LMT Weekly $427.50-422.50 Puts
NOC 08/15 $525-535 Calls
MEDP 08/15 $430-440 Calls
