Options Review, 5 New Possibilities

Monday’s Runners:

We had to take a one-day hiatus for medical procedures yesterday, but we’re right back in the saddle this morning, and starting out with the excellent performance of the options ideas we hashed out for Monday’s premarket report. With the exception of the SPY, which expired Monday afternoon, all of the figures we’ll present today will include the overall best moves from the previous two sessions since we flagged them.
