Options Recaps, 5-Pack of Fresh Ideas

Recapping Friday’s Movers:  

Things played out very much like we suspected they would on Friday, as we capped off an exceptional trading week with some solid options ideas. We came up with a pair of quick-strike plays, as well as a couple of longer-term targets with September expirations. Both of the weekly ideas we floated ended up posting some pretty good intraday upswings.

Those ideas were the NVDA Weekly $420 Puts and the IONQ Weekly $14.50-15 Calls, and each of them produced the following multibag gain possibilities on the day:

NVDA Weekly $420 Puts
$420: 
3.45-13.43 (+289%)
_____

IONQ Weekly $14.50-15 Calls
$14.50: .93-3.10 (+233%)
$15: .50-2.65 (+430%)
_____

We also saw new highs in the APP 08/18 $35-37.50 Calls which we flagged for observation on Thursday and reported on Friday. That considerably increased the percentage gains we had seen the previous session. The following figures represent the overall two-day swing:

APP 08/18 $35-37.50 Calls
$35: 
.70-4.50 (+543%)
$37.50: .24-2.35 (+879%)

Options Updates, Fresh Plays

US Steel Corp. X – Options Review:

We offered up a possible trade idea for the X chain in Friday morning’s premarket report, just as the company provided first quarter 2021 guidance that reflects higher expectations on strong steel demand leading to a rise in price. That led to an excellent session wherein X approached its previous high of the calendar year thus far, though it did ultimately come up just shy of the mark.

Our designated targets, the X Weekly $22-22.50 Calls fared quite well, with the PPS surging past and holding over $24 into the close. That facilitated the following gain opportunities for anyone who happened to catch our signal:

X Weekly $22-22.50 Calls
$22:
  51-2.33 (+357%)
$22.50: .26-1.89 (+627%)


eXp World Holdings Inc. EXPI:

Speaking of solid options plays, on Wednesday morning we threw out an idea for the EXPI chain, specifically targeting the EXPI 03/19 $50-52.50 Calls. The stock performed exceedingly well to close out the week, running to new highs.

That move enabled our options plays to record some excellent double bag trading ranges, and with the momentum built up in the stock, we’re going to want to continue to track these ideas, in addition to rolling up to include the EXPI 03/19 $55 Calls.

EXPI 03/19 $50-52.50 Calls
$50:  2.16-5.30 (+145%)
$52.50: 1.45-3.70 (+155%)


Fresh Options Plays:
PBR 04/01 $9-9.50 Calls
YALA Weekly $22.50-25 Calls
