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
$520:
 10.80-29.23 (+171%)

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%)

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

A Solid Midweek Performance:

Things went pretty well for us on Wednesday. All three of the quick-strike ideas we entered into the log in our premarket report returned some pretty good figures. We haven’t had many earning reporters to work with so far in 2024, but we’ve been getting along quite well, and are now finally heading into another earnings season so things should be pretty interesting from here on out.

Tuesday’s Runners, 4 Fresh Ideas

Good Start to the Short Week:

We got things off to a pretty good start on this holiday-shortened week, despite only formulating a couple of possible options plays for our readers. The two targets that we did highlight in our premarket report, certainly put up some very solid numbers across the board, with multibag gain potential in each set of contracts mentioned.

Those were the NVDA Weekly $547.50-550 Calls, and the GS Weekly $377.50-382.50 Calls, and and here were the intraday upswings they posted for Tuesday’s session:

NVDA Weekly $547.50-550 Calls
$547.50:
 9.54-22.70 (+140%)
$550: 7.95-20.65 (+160%)
_____

GS Weekly $377.50-382.50 Calls

$377.50: 3.63-8.75 (+141%)
$380: 2.35-7.13 (+203%)
$382.50: 1.73-5.40 (+212%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
SPY 01/17 $474-473 Puts*
NVDA Weekly $562.50-565 Calls
SCHW Weekly $64-62.50 Puts

We also want to enter a potential longer-term play on Spirit Airlines into the mix, which is getting crushed after a judge blocked its merger with Jet Blue. Even if it continues to fall a bit, we’re taking the position that a snap-back may occur shortly thereafter, so we’re going to track the SAVE 02/16 $5.00-7.50 Calls in the days and weeks ahead. 

*Only experienced traders should attempt to trade options contracts on their day of expiration
