Options Review

In yesterday morning’s premarket report, we signaled our interest in tracking a pair of options ideas following earnings reports from BSX and CAT, going bullish on one and bearish on the other.

We couldn’t have called them any better, as both sets of ideas returned numerous multi-bag runs on the day, with the following potential profits on the table:

BSX Weekly $38.50-40.50 Calls
$38.50 Calls – Range: 1.38-2.21 – Max Gain: 60%
$39 Calls – Range: .99-1.80 – Max Gain: 82%
$39.50 Calls – Range: .57-1.33 – Max Gain: 133%
$40 Calls – Range: .31-.91 – Max Gain: 194%

Harley Calls Pop & More

Harley-Davidson, Inc. HOG

Our fresh options trading idea for Harley on the heels of the company’s earnings report yesterday morning, was to track the Harley-Davidson, Inc. HOG Weekly $38.50-40 Calls. Sales fell in the company’s third fiscal quarter, but not by as much as was expected.

The report allowed HOG to buck the overall market downtrend on the day, and the move it made facilitated the following intraday opportunities in our designated contract sets:

$38.50 Calls – Range: .47-2.20 – Max Gain: 368%
$39 Calls – Range: .35-1.80 – Max Gain: 414%
$39.50 Calls – Range: .17-1.30 – Max Gain: 665%
$40 Calls – Range: .12-.99 – Max Gain: 725%

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*

*Never trade weekly options on a Friday unless you are an advanced level trader with access to disposable funds.
