Friday’s Rippers, Fresh Ideas

Reviewing Winning Options Plays: 

We made our typical attempt at unearthing some winning options ideas on Friday morning, and with a boatload of earnings reporters to choose from we went with Twitter and Snapchat, in addition to some SPY calls, as we were confident in a bullish session for the markets at large.

Our estimation proved accurate as the markets ripped all day long, and that made for some interesting daily gain opportunities in our designated contract sets. Specifically, we were tracking the TWTR Weekly $71.50-73 Calls, the SNAP Weekly $72.50-73.50 Calls, and the SPY 07/23 $436-437.50 Calls.

In each and every case we were afforded the opportunity to log multi-bag intraday gains. The total ranges and moves on those plays were as follows:

TWTR Weekly $71.50-73 Calls
$71.50: .59-1.56 (+164%)
$72: .45-1.24 (+175%)

Options Review:

Our first targets of the week in Monday morning’s premarket report were AAPL and TSLA, as both stocks underwent a forward split of their share structures, lowering their PPS values and getting a lot of fresh buyers coming into the mix.

We positioned ourselves accordingly with ideas for each chain, with the TSLA Weekly $447-455 Calls and the AAPL Weekly $125-127.50 Calls, and activity provided by the stock over these first two sessions of the week has provided us with the following gain opportunities:

TSLA Weekly $447-455 Calls 
$447: 18.00-60.63 (+237%)
$450: 16.80-57.95 (+245%)
$455: 15.00-53.63 (+258%)
_____

AAPL Weekly $125-127.50 Calls
$125: 5.05-10.75 (+113%)
$126.25: 4.00-9.80 (+145%)
$127.50: 3.87-8.75 (+126%)

We’ expect to see these AAPL figures increase today, and we’re going to stick with the Apple chain this morning and roll our targeted strike area up to include the AAPL $136.25-137.50 Calls.

Options Review:

Out of our options ideas in Friday’s report, the two targets that would have paid off the most were the WDAY Weekly $235-245 Calls and the DELL Weekly $62.50-65 Calls
and especially in the WDAY day, we saw considerable multibag moves on the day.

So we’re going to kick off this fresh trading week by going over the total possible gains on those plays, which were as follows:  

WDAY Weekly $235-245 Calls
$235:
 5.54-13.78 (+300%)
$240: 2.36-8.90 (+277%)
$245: .38-3.99 (+950%)
_____

DELL Weekly $62.50-65 Calls
$62.50:
 3.85-5.09 (+32%)
$65: 2.40-3.36 (+40%)


Fresh Options Ideas:

We’ll go ahead and keep the options train chugging along the tracks this morning.  Despite not having a very full boat on the earnings calendar today, TSLA and AAPL have both undergone forward splits today on the heels of setting new record highs. We are going to formulate a couple of ideas to correspond with the new PPS values.

TSLA Weekly $447-455 Calls
AAPL Weekly $125-127.50 Calls
