Recaps from the Short Week, Fresh Plays

Options Recaps: 

Our options idea for the TWTR chain from Thursday morning’s premarket report returned good intraday results despite the stock trending in the wrong direction. The markets were subdued on Thursday, but that also played well into the bearish ideas we had signaled in the two sessions prior. On Tuesday we signaled some puts in the KMX chain, and on Wednesday, we added JPM to the mix. In both cases, Thursday’s session brought new highs for us.

Our exact targets were the TWTR 04/14 $47-49 Calls, the JPM Weekly $129-127 Puts, and the KMX Weekly $105-97.50 Puts, and here are the updated figures on the moves we observed in those plays:

TWTR 04/14 $47-49 Calls
$47: .26-.84 (+223%)
$48: .16-.55 (+243%)
$49: .10-.35 (+250%)

Perfect on Options Plays, 5-Pack of Fresh Ideas

Clean Sweep on Options Plays: 

We are always very pleased when we can formulate multiple sets of options trading ideas for our readers, and have them all turn in winning cards on the day. Yesterday’s offering included three separate sets of ideas, and we saw considerable movement in everything across the board.

We were targeting the LOGI 02/18 $75-80 Calls, the BRO 02/18 $65-70 Calls, and the AXP Weekly $160-165 Calls in our premarket report, which all recorded very nice moves- particularly the BRO $65’s, which ran extremely hard right from the opening bell and rattled off a gain of more than 1500%

The rest of our ideas also performed quite well, with the following moves and total possible gains on the day: 

LOGI 02/18 $75-80 Calls
$75: 3.80-6.00 (+58%)
$80: 1.70-3.10 (+82%)

Voyager Digital, Inc. VYGVF – Recap:

We tagged VYGVF in yesterday’s extended watchlist, and for a $10 stock, it certainly produced an excellent intraday performance.

It ran from 10.75-14.886 for an intraday rise of 38% and it occurred on huge volume, to the tune of nearly five times the 30-day moving average. With that kind of momentous session, we’re going to want to stay trained on this play in upcoming sessions.
