Massive SPY Gains

SPDR S&P 500 (ETF) SPY – Review

Yesterday morning we said we would come back to the idea we issued for the SPY on Tuesday morning, for what we assumed was going to be some nice added gains. The targets were the SPY 05/27 $302-303 Calls, and they exceeded our expectations for the day by a country mile!

That pair of contracts posted what may possibly be the biggest single session gains we’ve ever tracked in the SPY, which has been our go-to market analog for years. The gains here were simply marvelous.

SPY 05/27 $302-303 Calls
$302: .02-.91 (+4500%)
$303: .03-1.92 (+6300%)

We had also signaled fresh ideas in some other options chains yesterday, and thanks in part to a big day for the markets, we saw some appreciable gains there as well, which were as follows:

GSX 06/19 $30-35 Calls
$30: 2.98-4.90 (+64%)
$35: 1.00-1.93 (+93%)

STNE Weekly $31-32 Calls
$31: 1.19-3.60 (+203%)

PANW, BJ Reviews

BJ’s Wholesale Club Holdings Inc. BJ

We had been tracking a target in the BJ’s options chain toward the end of last week, which were the BJ 06/19 $30 Calls. Then on Friday morning, we added an extra idea by rolling up to include the 06/19 $40 Calls as well. After another solid push, we have a new high to report on the $30’s, and our newer ideas performed well also, posting a multibag intraday performance.

So overall, from Thursday’s signal on the 06/19 $30 Calls, we observed a two-day swing from 1.50-8.42, marking a rise of 461% Meanwhile, the 06/19 $40 Calls
posted a move from .45-1.68, which worked out to a single-session gain of 273%

Palo Alto Networks, Inc. PANW

Additionally, we had highlighted a trio of contracts in the PANW chain in our premarket report from Friday, with the PANW Weekly $235-245 Calls. We were able to see quite a bit of success there.

Weekly $235-245 Calls
$235: 4.68-8.30 (+77%)
$240: 2.45-5.03 (+105%)
$245: .99-3.35 (+238%)

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
