Monday’s Opportunities, Tuesday’s Fresh Plays

Monday’s Movers:

The week got off to a slow start yesterday, with the markets dipping and a general lack of interesting earnings reports, but we still managed to find some intraday opportunities in a couple of the options ideas we had signaled for observation. We went two for three on the day in our premarket report, which wasn’t too bad under the circumstances.

The ideas that produced intraday movement for us were the SPY 12/05 $405 Calls, and the SAIC 12/16 $110-115 Calls.and those gain chances were moderate but respectable. We also have an update on another set of December 16th calls that we alerted last Monday morning. the RYAN 12/16 $40 Calls, which put together a very nice run over the past week.

SLQT’s Impressive Run Persists & More

SLQT Stock & Options Update:

Just over two weeks ago, in our report from the morning of August 31st, we caught SLQT after a director filed a Form-4 and soaked up shares at at relative bottom. Combined with the right chart setup, that’s the sort of scenario that we’ll always take a chance on, and it paid off for us.

SLQT has been making steady strides toward a recovery nearly every day since then, and our designated options targets, the SLQT 09/17 $7.50-10 Calls, which expire on Friday, have continued their rise. The stock itself has produced a solid move on the chart from a low of 9.19 on the morning of our original alert, to a new high of 14.03 yesterday. That works out to an upswing of 53% in just two weeks’ time.

As far as our highlighted options plays, we’ve already provided multiple updates, and today’s is quite impressive, with the $10’s in particular edging closer and closer to that coveted thousand percent gainer designation.

Here are the current figures on the total moves these contract sets have posted since the 31st: 

SLQT 09/17 $7.50-10 Calls
$7.50:
 1.80-6.50 (+261%)
$10: .40-3.90 (+875%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
