ACB Adds Big Gains & More

Options Train Keeps Rolling!

To kick the week off yesterday morning, we went with a varied selection of options ideas as usual. We found solid success with the help of a strong day for the markets, thanks to renewed optimism that a coronavirus vaccine could possibly go into production before next year.

Each one of our quick-strike ideas produced significant opportunities right off the bat, with the following intraday moves:

ACB $13-15 Calls
$13: 3.15-7.00 (+122%)
$14: 1.88-6.50 (+246%)
$15: 1.50-5.90 (+293%)

These were our rolled up targets after having great success with ACB $7-8 Calls last week. In that time frame, we’ve witnessed the stock itself shoot from a low of 7.80 to yesterday’s new high of 19.68, an increase of 152%

Options Recaps & More

Reviewing Friday’s Options Plays

In Friday morning’s report, we set out several last-minute options ideas, and our first order of business to kick off the fresh trading week is to highlight the performances recorded by those targets.

We had a mixture of bulls and bears on our watchlist and for most of them, we saw some pretty nice action and potential intraday gains:

DKNG Weekly $25 Calls
$280: .90-4.30 (+378%)

AMAT Weekly $54.50-53 Puts
$54.50: 1.30-2.63 (+102%)
$54: 1.05-2.50 (+138%)
$53.50: .72-2.29 (+218%)
$53: .50-1.80 (+260%)

ACB Weekly $7-8 Calls
$7: .86-3.03 (+252%)
$8: .28-3.75 (+1238%)

In the case of ACB, not only did our options targets kill, especially with that beautiful twelve-bagger, but the stock itself is on a heck of a run, seeing a low of 7.80 on Friday and reaching as high as 14.90 in early trading today. That’s a respectable move of 91% We’re also going to roll up to the ACB $13-15 Calls for this week.

Fresh Ideas:
SE Weekly $63-66 Calls
SPY 05/20 $292-295 Calls
TDG 07/17 $390-400 Calls

SPY Puts Still in Play, New Ideas

SPY Review

The tides continue to ebb and flow, and our primary goal is to roll with them as best we can. This is just the concept we were illustrating yesterday when highlighting the imprtance of having a range of bullish and bearish targets on watch during such volatile times. The markets dipped in the morning, and recovered rather nicely throughout the course of the day.

That gave our updated idea on the SPY some traction early on in the session, with our targets posting some respectable moves:

SPY Weekly $280-278 Puts
$280: 2.93-5.05 (+72%)
$279: 2.50-4.44 (+78%)
$278: 1.18-3.34 (+183%)

With the report on retail sales showing more than a 16% loss for the month of April, the market may head lower and push these gains up even further early on.

Fresh Options Ideas*:
DKNG Weekly $25 Calls
AMAT Weekly $54.50-53 Puts
ACB Weekly $7-8 Calls
CSCO Weekly $44-43.50 Puts

*Please do not trade weekly options on a Friday unless you are an advanced level trader with access to disposable funds!

Markets Crashing, Bears Cashing!

Options Updates:

In these exceptionally volatile times, it’s always good to have both long and short targets, depending on which way the wind is blowing. With the help of yet another bloody day for the markets at large, the bearish ideas we’ve been tracking in MAR all week tacked on some impressive new highs, and the new CYBR Puts we added in fresh for yesterday’s report immediately went exponential.

In the case of MAR, these numbers represent 2-day swings, and for CYBR, we’ve got yesterday’s intraday ranges:

MAR Weekly $86.50-85 Puts
$86.50: 2.80-11.72 (+319%)
$86: 2.70-11.27 (+317%)
$85.50: 2.20-9.07 (+312%)
$85: 2.13-10.00 (+369%)
______

CYBR Weekly $107-104 Puts
$107: 2.70-11.90 (+341%)
$106: 2.80-9.87 (+253%)
$105: 2.26-10.00 (+342%)
$104: 2.40-9.00 (+275%)

With the aforementioned winds once again blowing in a bearish direction this morning, we’ll keep an eye out for even more new highs in these plays. We’ll also add in a related idea for the SPDR S&P 500 ETF, and put the SPY Weekly $280-278 Puts on watch into tomorrow.

New Options Ideas:
EQM Weekly $15-17.50 Calls
JACK Weekly $65-60 Puts
ONEM Weekly $25-22.50 Puts

The addition we’re going to make is to track the AMC 05/15 $6-7 Calls as well following the rumors of a potential buyout by Amazon.
