PEP Options Review, SPY Calls & More

PepsiCo, Inc. PEP – Options Recap:

We had a quick-strike idea based off of PEP earnings in yesterday morning’s premarket report. It was basically the only game in town on the earnings front, as we continue to trudge along through an extremely dry period. As we’ve mentioned in previous newsletters recently, this earnings drought will persist until the week of the 18th.

Our sole set of earnings play targets were the PEP Weekly $149-152.50 Calls, and those produced some very respectable intraday gain opportunities on the day for ourselves and our readers. Multibag runs were recorded by all three contract sets.

PEP Weekly $149-152.50 Calls
$149:
 1.84-3.51 (+91%)
$150: 1.19-2.73 (+129%)
$152.50: .28-1.04 (+271%)

VizConnect, Inc. VIZC – Recap:

We’re also going to take a minute to relay the move made by VIZC, a subpenny stock that we flagged a couple of times last month beginning on the morning of the 10th.

The stock traded for as little as .0031 subsequent to our alert. During yesterday’s session it recorded a new high of .0072. That works out to an increase of 132% over our observed low.

Infrax Systems, Inc. IFXY – Review:

Our first order of business this morning is to go over the performance of a stock that we initially tagged last week on Friday. IFXY produced quite a run subsequent to our alert, posting a low of .0081 that morning, and registering a high of .0137 yesterday. That works out to a session-over-session gain of 69%

We’ll keep an eye peeled this week for the chance that IFXY can make its next move up from this higher base level of support. Volume over the past couple sessions has been quite higher than average so the potential for a continuation of its recent bullish activity is certainly present.


SPY Recap:

Our quick strike options play for yesterday morning’s report turned in a fantastic ticket on the day. We were tracking the SPY 10/04 $434-432 Puts, and thanks to a particularly bloody open for the markets at large, we saw significant movement in our designated targets.

The SPY has long been our go-to market analog play, and it is particularly helpful on days like yesterday with no interesting earnings plays of which to speak.Here are the intraday gains that were made possible by this particular idea.

SPY 10/04 $434-432 Puts
$434:
 1.50-7.64 (+409%)
$433: 1.06-6.69 (+531%)
$432: .75-5.70 (+660%)

GS, PEP Options Breakout:

With the earnings drought just days away from finally ending, we still have been managing to seek out winning plays. As we’ve said, next week begins a torrential outpouring of quarterly reporters on the order of dozens, if not hundreds per day!

We got back on the track of options perfection yesterday, with both of our fresh ideas in our premarket report yielding stellar intraday chances to profit. We had selected the GS Weekly $380-385 Calls and the PEP Weekly $149-152.50 Calls following Goldman Sachs and Pepsi’s earnings releases.

Despite an up-and-down sort of a session for the markets at large, we witnessed some serious multibag moves from every single contract we slated for observation. Here are the total possible gains that traders could have logged on the strength of those ideas:

GS Weekly $380-385 Calls
$380: 1.64-4.69 (+186%)
$382.50: 1.19-3.68 (+209%)
$385: .85-2.89 (+240%)

PEP Weekly $149-152.50 Calls 
$149: 2.20-4.95 (+125%)
$150: 1.50-4.00 (+167%)
$152.50: .43-1.73 (+302%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
SPY 07/14 $436-437 Calls*
C Weekly $69-70 Calls

*Please be aware that these SPY Calls will expire at the end of the trading day. Trading options on the day of their expiration is a high-risk/high-reward proposition that should only be undertaken by experienced traders!

More Options Review:  

We’ve got options updates on deck for this morning, and there is actually a fairly decent slate of earnings reporters on the docket today, so we’ll take a look into some of those as well.

As for recaps on options calls we’ve made recently, two of the targets that we reviewed yesterday morning continued their momentum and set new highs for us during the session. They were Friday’s alert on the GBX 07/16 $40 Calls and Tuesday’s alert on the ARWR 07/16 $65 Calls. Additionally, we witnessed new highs in the DRI 07/16 $140-145 Calls, which we initially targeted a few weeks back on June 24th.

These are the updated figures on those plays, all of which expire at the end of the week:

GBX 07/16 $40 Calls
$40: 
1.40-5.40 (+286%)
_____

ARWR 07/16 $65 Calls
$65: 1.28-4.00 (+213%)
_____

DRI 07/16 $140-145 Calls
$140: 2.71-10.10 (+273%)
145: 1.10-5.45 (+395%)


Post-Earnings Options Ideas: 

As we’ve been mentioning, next week is when the floodgates for earnings reporters really swing wide open, but for the time being, we have a couple that dropped their quarterlies this morning in which we will select some targets.

GS Weekly $380-385 Calls
PEP Weekly $149-152.50 Calls

Ocugen, Inc. OCGN

We also want to designate OCGN as a bottom-watch play this morning. The stock recently became NASDAQ-trading after a merger with Histogenics, and the PPS fell off a cliff.

OCGN is currently hanging around just above the two dollar level here in the premarket, and we will be tracking its movements over the next few sessions to see if it can pick up some steam as a bottom-bouncer.


We released a Special Report on CBNT (Click here to view) Wednesday morning, and the stock made a solid 30% move up yesterday. We’re going to continue tracking this nanotech play. Stay tuned for updates.
