Big Moves Thursday, 6-Pack of Fresh Plays

Wrapping Up a Great Trading Week:

This has been one heck of an options trading week for us. With plenty of earnings reporters to take advantage of, we have been knocking homers out of the park daily, and yesterday was no exception. We floated five potential plays in our premarket report, and the four with their expiration set for today produced big intraday moves. We’ll also have a nice big slate with both quick-strike, and longer-term interests for today, so it should be an interest close to a fantastic trading week.

Yesterday’s movers and shakers were the META Weekly $290-285 Puts, the IBM Weekly $137-139 Calls, the NOW Weekly $547.50-555 Calls, and the BMY Weekly $55-53 Puts, and here were the types of intraday moves they made, and the total possible gains those presented:

Kicking Off a New Trading Week

Recapping Friday’s Runners:

After closing out the week on a high note and reporting on the big gains from all six of our options trading ideas from Thursday, we offered up three more ideas for Friday’s session, and once again swept the board. It’s always nice to put a solid end cap on a good week of trading, and our performance was definitely up to snuff last week.

We were focused on the SPY Weekly $426-425 Puts, the ALV Weekly $90-95 Calls, and the RF Weekly $17-16 Puts for the session, and they put up some pretty good moves on the day. Here’s the breakdown of those winning figures.

Yesterday’s Clean Sweep:

We fared quite well yesterday morning with our first options targets of the week from our premarket report.
