Reviewing Big Runners, 3 Ideas to End the Short Week

A Winning Wednesday:

We’re wrapping up this short four day trading week today in good fashion, with a slate of big movers to review from our premarket report yesterday. We offered up three possible plays and all three were wildly successful. That included once again playing the SPY and choosing the right side of the fence to come down on with some puts, which absolutely soared as the markets endured another brutal session.

Our interests for Wednesday were the SPY 04/16 $534-533 Puts, the ASML Weekly $660-655 Puts, and the IBKR Weekly $160 Puts. Here were the huge multibag runs they recorded:

Options Recaps, Trio of New Potential Plays

Tuesday’s Runners:

It was another excellent outing for us yesterday as another earnings season continued to ramp up, and the three potential options trading ideas that we offered up in our premarket report turned in some really nice runs on the day. Bank earnings are coming back big and carrying the markets up with them as they go, which means things should remain interesting around here for quite some time.

Tuesday’s Top Runners, 3 Fresh Ideas

Another Successful Session:

Things went really well for the options ideas that we issued for our premarket report yesterday morning. Of the five possible plays that we called attention to, four of those produced intraday gain chances of a significant nature. Half of them were longer term contracts with an August expiration, and still made notable intraday runs on our first day of monitoring.

Those winning plays were the UNH Weekly $520-530 Calls, the SCHW Weekly $72.50-71 Puts, the YELP 08/16 $37-38 Calls, and the SBUX 08/16 $75-80 Calls. These were the daily moves they recorded:

UNH Weekly $520-530 Calls

Monday’s Movers, 5 Fresh Options Ideas

Excellent Way to Start the Week:

After a strong close to the last trading week, we opened things up on Monday with an equally fortuitous start to this fresh week. We cast a net of four potential options plays in our premarket report for the session, and witnessed positive intraday movement in every last target. Not only that, but glancing at the earnings calendar this morning, it appears the recent dry spell of reporters is coming to an end, with many big names releasing their figures.

Yesterday’s possibilities were the SPY 07/15 $561-562 Calls, the DJT Weekly $44-46 Calls, the NVDA Weekly $130-131 Calls, and the TSLA Weekly $250-255 Calls, and here were the daily runs they delivered, which, in the case of the SPY Calls in particular, were enormous:

SPY 07/15 $561-562 Calls
$561: .04-1.03 (+2475%)
$562: .02-.14 (+600%)
_____

DJT Weekly $44-46 Calls
$44: 2.40-3.85 (+60%)
$45: 2.16-3.60 (+67%)
_____

NVDA Weekly $130-131 Calls
$130: 2.48-3.30 (+33%)
$131: 1.59-2.07 (+30%)
_____

TSLA Weekly $250-255 Calls
$250: 9.61-18.29 (+90%)
$252.50: 8.43-16.45 (+95%)
$255: 7.20-14.50 (+101%)

Fresh Options Ideas:
UNH Weekly $520-530 Calls
PGR Weekly $215-220 Calls
SCHW Weekly $72.50-71 Puts

We’ve got strong multiple bottom signals on both YELP and SBUX, so we want to enter a couple of longer-term recovery ideas for those chains as well:

YELP 08/16 $37-38 Calls
SBUX 08/16 $75-80 Calls
