ANAB Options Heating Up

AnaptysBio Inc. ANAB – Update

Today we want to come back to update on the progress of a longer-term options idea we formulated a couple of weeks ago on the 11th. We mentioned that we were interested in tracking the ANAB 01/17 $10-15 Calls, and it has turned out to be an excellent idea.

The stock itself has continually ramped its way up , filling some of the topside gap on the chart, trading from a low of 10.08 on the morning of our initial alert, to a new high of 13.33 yesterday. That’s an increase of 32% on the stock alone, with the observed gains in our highlighted options making much more significant moves:

$10 CallsRange: 1.50-3.20 – Max Gain: 113%
$12.50 Calls – Range: .50-1.50 – Max Gain: 200%
$15 Calls – Range: .23-.55  – Max Gain: 139%

As you can see on the following chart snapshot, indicators are strongly suggesting that ANAB should continue to make progress in filling the immense gap.

Options Recaps, New Ideas

The Walt Disney Co. DIS – Options Review

On Friday morning, we closed out the week with a last minute options ideasignaling our interest in the DIS Weekly $139-142 Calls. Despite a turbulent open for stocks in general, we saw some really nice early opportunities from those ideas.

The total possible gains on those contracts were as follows: 

DIS Weekly $139-142 Calls
$139 Calls – Range: 
.61-1.48 – Max Gain: 143%
$140 Calls – Range: .38-.94 – Max Gain: 147%
$141 Calls – Range: .25-.54 – Max Gain: 116%
$142 Calls – Range: .12-.38 – Max Gain: 217%


AnaptysBio Inc. ANAB – Options Idea

We also took notice of ANAB this morning after the stock fell to new all-time lows yesterday. Just as a stock that shoots up a great deal in a short time must eventually come down to earth, one that tanks this hard is bound to recover some ground.

From current levels, a play on the stock itself could pan out favorably in a relatively short amount of time, but we will also designate some longer-term contracts in the options chain for an added idea. We’ll radar the ANAB 01/17 $10-15 Calls for observation over the next several weeks.

Blue Horseshoe Stocks: ROKU Recap & More

Roku, Inc. ROKU  – Recap

Typically, our ideas include stocks and options that are suited for short-term, quick-strike style trades. But occasionally, when the situation calls for it, we do formulate longer-term ideas.

Such was the case on the morning of September 23rd, when we tagged the ROKU 11/01 $115-118 Calls for extended observation. We provided an update on Friday of last week, but the gains experienced have since increased considerably.

$115 Calls – Range: 3.00-11.72 – Max Gain: 291%
$116 Calls – Range: 3.60-11.14 – Max Gain: 209%
$117 Calls – Range: 2.82-10.60 – Max Gain: 276%
$118 Calls – Range: 2.50-10.20 – Max Gain: 308%

Based on the stock’s premarket activity, we would expect to see these figures rise even further as we close out another trading week.

Bonus Idea: ROKU Weekly $122-123 Calls


Bed Bath & Beyond, Inc. BBBY

We did include one of our typical fast-strike plays in yesterday morning’s premarket report, with our highlighting of the BBBY Weekly $13-12 Puts. That idea turned out to be extremely successful as well, with multi-bag intraday performances from both contract sets.    

The $13 Puts ran from .51-1.27, marking a move of 149%, while the $12’s ran even harder, trading in a range from .10-.45 and rising by 350%


Fresh Idea:
SPY SPDR S&P500 (ETF) SPY Weekly $293-.50-295.50 Calls*
