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.

Tuesday’s Perfect Performance, Fresh Plays

A Perfect Day for Options:

After an admittedly disappointing outing on Monday, we bounced back yesterday morning with a vengeance. We gathered ourselves quickly and issued four new potential trading ideas in our premarket report, and were not displeased with the results. We got right back to our winning ways, as all four of our designated targets recorded nice intraday moves for us.

Our new interests were the SPY 07/11 $439-441 Calls, the INTU Weekly $460-465 Calls, the WDFC 07/21 $200-210 Calls, and the PSMT 07/21 $75 Puts. The gain chances they afforded us ranged from pretty darn good, to astounding, as you can see below:

SPY 07/11 $439-441 Calls
$439: 
1.06-3.83 (+261%)
$440: .56-2.95 (+426%)

Recent Options Movers & More

Recent Runners:

With no earnings plays to work with, it was a pretty rough outing yesterday to kick off the week. We didn’t see immediate chances for returns on the few options ideas we selected, leaving us in anticipation of another earnings season to begin its return next week. We’ll keep the plays we highlighted yesterday on the radar as always, but for this morning’s report, we’ll just focus on some other longer-term ideas we recently formulated, and the progress they’ve managed since then.

We flagged the EVGO 08/18 $4-5 Calls last Monday the 3rd, and the SNOW 08/04 $170-165 Puts we signaled on Friday morning, and have seen some reasonably solid swings from them.

EVGO 08/18 $4-5 Calls
$4: 
1.40-2.39 (+95%)
$5: .04-.10 (+150%)
_____

SNOW 08/04 $170-165 Puts
$170:

*Trading options contracts on their day of expiration should only be attempted by experienced traders


T2 Biosystems, Inc. (NASDAQ:TTOO)

We’ve also seen quite an impressive multibag run from TTOO, which we began tracking in our report from the morning of June 22nd. Over these past few weeks we’ve witnessed the stock rise from a low of .066 to as much as .1894 in the premarket this morning. That works out to a gain of 187%

Friday’s Big Movers, Fresh Targets

Fridays Big Movers: 

We finished out the week on a high note Friday, with both of the potential options plays we signaled in our premarket report posting good gains on the day. We’ve got just this week to get through, and we’ll be back in the midst of another earnings season. As most of our readers should know by now, we swear by the volatility produced by big-name earnings reporters, and it has been a long 6 weeks of the same being few and far between.

As for Friday’s ideas, we were honed in on the LEVI Weekly $17 Calls, and the WDFC 07/15 $190-185 Calls, . The Levi calls were far and away the hotter idea, but WD-40 also recorded some very nice moves for us.

LEVI Weekly $17 Calls
$17:
 .05-.47 (+840%)
_____

WDFC 07/15 $190-185 Calls
$190: 1.79-3.50 (+96%)
$185: .53-1.90 (+258%)

Putting a Cap on a Fruitful Short Week

Options Review: 

We went bearish on the pair of options ideas that we highlighted for yesterday morning’s premarket report, and they posted some pretty nice intraday moves, considering the markets as a whole went on an impressive daily run.

Our areas of interest were the HELE 07/15 $160-150 Puts, and the SLP Weekly $55-50 Puts. Both ranges of contracts yielded two separate chances to pocket multibag proceeds on the day, with the SLP $50 Puts stealing the show on the strength of a massive four-bagger. Those potential gains were as follows:

HELE 07/15 $160-150 Puts
$160: 
7.80-10.30 (+32%)
$155: 2.55-6.40 (+151%)
$150: 1.54-3.25 (+111%)
_____

SLP Weekly $55-50 Puts 
$55: 1.60-4.00 (+150%)
$50: .15-.88 (+487%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
LEVI Weekly $17 Calls*
WDFC 07/15 $190-185 Calls

*Trading options on their day of expiration can carry a heightened level of risk and should only be attempted by seasoned traders.


United Maritime Corp. USEA – NASDAQ Recap:

The stock traded for as little as 6.16 a share following yesterday’s alert, and this morning it has reached as high as 10.12 in early trading, which represents an overnight increase of 64%
