Closing Out the Short Trading Week

Options Review: 

The end of holiday week one of two is upon us, and it was a pretty good one in terms of the gain opportunities we observed. We expect a subdued end to this short week, but we wanted to swing back around for a couple of longer-term calls we submitted last week in our reports for December 13th (TSM) and December 15th (TKR).

We were tracking the TSM 01/07 $122-124 Calls and the TKR 01/21 $65-70 Calls, and both sets of ideas have gained some good ground this week. Here are the overall increases we’ve witnessed in those ideas so far:

TSM 01/07 $122-124 Calls
$122:
 .98-2.45 (+150%)
$123:.70-1.68 (+140%)
$124: .70-1.68 (+140%)
_____

TKR 01/21 $65-70 Calls
$65: 1.97-4.10 (+108%)
$67.50: .55-1.24 (+125%)
$70: .08-.25 (+212%)


Fresh Options Idea:
SPY 12/23 $467-469 Calls
CROX 01/21 $150-155 Calls


BiondVax Pharmaceuticals, Inc. BVXV:

We would like to close things out by providing a quick update on BVXV which appeared in yesterday’s extended watchlist. While it did produce a multibag run, it did have two separate moves on the day that are worth mentioning.

First it ran from 2.72-3.49 (+28%), followed by a slight pullback and a move from .2.31-3.00 (+30%) for a cumulative total of 58% on the day. .

4-Pack of Fresh Options Plays

Options Recaps: 

Another day, another set of winning options ideas! We stick to this pattern because it produces results, and like usual, we put together some ideas for yesterday morning’s premarket report that enjoyed solid intraday performances.

The two sets of targets that turned in winning cards on the day were the SPY 12/06 $453-454 Calls, and the SAIC Weekly $85-90 Calls. The gains in the SAIC chain didn’t astonish, but they were very respectable, while the SPY calls ripped for big multibag gains. All in all, our targets provided plenty of opportunity for traders to bank quick intraday profits.

SPY 12/06 $453-454 Calls
$453: 2.86-7.61 (+166%)
$454: 2.27-6.78 (+199%)
_____

SAIC Weekly $85-90 Calls
$85: 3.60-5.20 (+44%)
$90: 1.20-2.15 (+79%)


Fresh Options Ideas:

We had another interesting set of earnings reporters today, which led us to these three sets of ideas, and we decided to roll with the SPY and formulate some more possible targets there. But be advised that those SPY contracts will expire tomorrow at market close.

SPY 12/08 $460 Calls
MDB Weekly $520 Calls
COUP Weekly $170-160 Puts
HQY 12/17 $50-40 Puts

Friday’s Runners, Today’s Fresh Targets

Options Review: 

As usual, we’re going to make our first order of business this morning, the highlighting of our options plays from Friday and what was performing. Three out of the five sets of ideas we formulated in Friday morning’s premarket report recorded notable intraday gains for us.

Those winning targets were the DOCU Weekly $190-175 Puts, the SMAR Weekly $65-70 Calls, and the MRVL Weekly $79-85 Calls. and while the gains weren’t earth-shattering, there were certainly plenty of strong intraday profit chances which could have been seized upon, to the tune of the following moves:

DOCU Weekly $190-175 Puts
$190:
 35.01-58.12 (+66%)
$185: 29.82-53.30 (+79%)
$180: 24.24-42.00 (+73%)
$175: 20.04-42.97 (+114%)
_____

SMAR Weekly $65-70 Calls
$65: 4.60-7.24 (+57%)
$70: 3.04-4.00 (+32%)
_____

MRVL Weekly $79-85 Calls
$79: 6.53-9.00 (+38%)
$80: 5.06-8.60 (+70%)
$85: 1.53-4.50 (+194%)


Fresh Options Ideas: 

The premarket earnings calendar is rather light this morning, but we did hash out some ideas with two out of the three reporters, as well as target some daily SPY Calls, as the markets appear to be gearing up to pare losses from Friday’s down session.

SAIC Weekly $85-90 Calls
DLHC Weekly $12.50 Calls
SPY 12/06 $453-454 Calls*

*Trading options contracts on their day of expiration carries higher risk, and should only be attempted by experienced traders
