Ringing in 2024 with a 4-Pack of Fresh Ideas

Best Wishes for 2024!

In a rare occurrence, we opted not to include any options trading ideas on Friday before breaking for the holiday. There were no earnings reporters, and the markets were looking rather subdued, and set up for a humdrum kind of a day. It was a quiet end to a year that had been anything but quiet, but we’re ready to get things rolling for 2024. We’ll still be without earnings reporters today, but that won’t stop us from rooting out something to focus upon for this first trading day of the year.

If 2024 turns out anywhere near as positive as 2023 was, we will be in very good shape! It is the 13th calendar year since we opened up BlueHorseshoeStocks.com as a daily archive of all of our newsletters (all 3,230 of which are still public and available for review!) and we’re going stronger than ever! To subscribers new and old, we hope you’ll stick with us for what promises to be a VERY interesting 2024!

A Winning Wednesday, 4 New Targets

Hot Streak Continues Wednesday:

We had another really solid outing on Wednesday, continuing a run of excellent options ideas for the week. We had a triplet of potential plays in our premarket report for the day, and all of them turned in some fairly impressive performances on the day. Especially our target in the SPY, which went on a really nice intraday tear immediately following the fed meeting, and into the close.

Those ideas we were tracking were the SPY 12/13 $465 Calls, the ABM Weekly $45 Calls, and the AMD Weekly $137-139 Calls, and here are the intraday runs they logged:

SPY 12/13 $465 Calls
$465:
 .90-5.83 (+548%)

ABM Weekly $45 Calls
$45: 2.90-7.30 (+152%)

AMD Weekly $137-139 Calls
$137: 2.20-3.90 (+77%)
$138: 1.74-3.10 (+78%)
$139: 1.02-1.95 (+91%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
ADBE Weekly $590-600 Calls
JBL Weekly $120 Calls
MTDR 01/19 $55-60 Calls
SPY 12/14 $472-473 Calls*

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


Star Alliance International Corp. STAL – Update:

We’ve recently been tracking STAL closely, and on Monday morning we mentioned that we would want to see STAL hold support in the .004-.005 range to continue to hold our interest. It did just that, maintaining support at a low of .0045 on Tuesday, and running back to .0085 yesterday. That worked out to a two-day swing of 89%

C4 Therapeutics, Inc. – Recap:

 Another stock that we flagged in yesterday’s extended watchlist was CCCC, which posted an impressive intraday run on the heels of some positive phase 1 trial data, and news of an exclusive licensing agreement with pharma giant MRK. We saw a single session rip from 3.16-6.03 out of this stock, which represents a 91% upswing.
