A Top Shelf Tuesday, 5 New Targets

Tuesday Runners Review:

Yesterday worked out very well in our favor in terms of the options ideas we formulated for our premarket report. We didn’t have a heck of a lot to work with in terms of earnings reporters, but the plays we did find produced excellent intraday performances. In the case of DNUT, the stock posted the largest single session gain and highest volume since its inception. This was on news that Krispy Kreme donuts will now be available at McDonald’s, and it sent DNUT and the targets we had put forth on one heck of a ride!

Yesterday’s interests were the TSLA Weekly $177.50-180 Calls, the MKC 04/19 $75 Calls, and of course the DNUT 04/19 $15 Calls. Here are the big time gains they posted on Tuesday:

TSLA Weekly $177.50-180 Calls
$177.50: 2.96-7.66 (+159%)
$180: 1.61-5.76 (+258%)
_____

MKC 04/19 $75 Calls
$75: 1.20-3.30 (+175%)
_____

DNUT 04/19 $15 Calls
$15: .40-3.20 (+700%)

Fresh Options Ideas:
DNUT 04/19 $17.50 Calls
MRK Weekly $131-132 Calls*
GME Weekly $13-12 Puts*
CTAS 04/19 $660-680 Calls
NCNO 04/19 $35-40 Calls
