Wednesday’s Winners, 5 Fresh Options Ideas

Wednesday’s Winners:

For yesterday morning’s premarket report, we lofted possible targets in five separate options chains, and got back some mixed, but ultimately good results. Things have been a little light on the big name earnings front recently, but we’ve found some good opportunities elsewhere. We should start to see a ton more chances at earnings plays toward the end of the month, and until then we’ll continue to get creative when choosing our daily items of interest.

Our fresh ideas for the day on Wednesday were the NVDA Weekly $532.50-537.50 Calls, the WDFC 01/19 $250 Calls, the AEHR 01/19 $20 Puts, the SGH 01/19 $20 Calls, and the W 01/26 $55 Calls. With the expiration a little farther out on those W Calls, we’ll have to come back to those at a later date, but the rest of our plays we’re pretty good. Here were the intraday moves and total possible gains that they recorded:

NVDA Weekly $532.50-537.50 Calls
$532.50:
 8.60-16.00 (+86%)
$535: 7.13-14.00 (+96%)

Tuesday’s Top Up-Tickers, 5 New Possibilities

Tuesday’s Options Updates:

We finally ran into a hitch for the first time this year yesterday, with one of the three potential options plays we laid out in our morning report failing to produce instant results. Our BOX 01/19 $25 Calls may need some more time to produce a sizable upswing, but the other two targets certainly worked out for us on the day.

Those plays were the MSM Weekly $90 Puts, and the AYI 01/19 $210-220 Calls, and below you’ll find the intraday moves on those, as well as another update on the CYTK 01/19 $70 Calls which we’ve been tracking since December 29th, after they recorded an impressive new high this week. It’s a good example of how some of our longer-term ideas can take slightly longer to come to full fruition.

MSM Weekly $90 Puts
$90:
 .20-.65 (+225%)
_____

AYI 01/19 $210-220 Calls
$210: 7.50-18.56 (+147%)
$220: 2.35-9.00(+283%)
_____

CYTK 01/19 $70 Calls
$70: 8.00-40.00 (+400%)



Fresh Options Ideas:
NVDA Weekly $532.50-537.50 Calls

Cannabis Stock Explosion in Progress

Aphria, Inc. APHA – Options Recap

Our sole point of focus in terms of fresh options plays in yesterday morning’s premarket report, was a tight range of calls in the APHA chain on the heels of the company’s earning report- the APHA Weekly $10-11 Calls to be exact. Despite a down day for the markets at large, we saw this cannabis stock buck the trend on the strength of increased price targets relating to the company’s impending merger with Tilray, Inc. TLRY, another pot stock with which we’ve had some experience in the past.

The gains on our target contracts for the day yesterday were quite impressive as you’ll see below, but based on the premarket activity we’re observing this morning, we expect the following ranges and total possible gains to explode at the open today.  Read on to find the expanded set of targets that we’re going to formulate for APHA for today and into next week.

APHA Weekly $10-11 Calls
$10:
 .70-2.25 (+221%)
$10.50: .40-1.70 (+325%)
$11: .28-1.20 (+329%)

As we said above, we expect those figures to increase today, and going forward we’re going to add the APHA Weekly $13-14 Calls, and the APHA 01/22 $15 Calls into our pool of tracked contracts. We’ll also include the TLRY Weekly $21-22 Calls just for good measure.

We’re also going to include a wide range of OTC-traded cannabis penny stocks to track below, as the legislative environment is about to shift dramatically toward favorable conditions for federal reclassification, and the business opportunities it will provide should be like nothing we’ve seen to date.
