Options Recap, 5 New Ideas

Wednesday’s Movers:

After selecting three possible options trading targets in our premarket report yesterday, we were met with good results right out of the gate on two of the three. We’ll keep those August ZM calls in our back pocket for the time being, because we’re still confident in the target in the coming weeks.

As for the ideas that did pan out instantly yesterday, we had the NVDA Weekly $133-134 Calls, and the SGH 07/19 $25 Calls. These were the intraday upswings they recorded for Wednesday’s session:

NVDA Weekly $133-134 Calls
$133:
 2.02-3.20 (+58%)
$134: 1.60-2.55 (+59%)
_____

SGH 07/19 $25 Calls
$25:
 1.16-4.40 (+279%)
_____

We have been targeting multiple options ideas with 07/19 expiration over the past few weeks, so we also wanted to circle back around for a play we alerted on last Tuesday morning, the MSM $75 Puts. It illustrates why it’s a good idea for us to continue tracking longer-term plays even if they don’t produce opportunities for us on the first day. The move in these puts was substantial.

MSM 07/19 $75 Puts
$75:
 .24-.83 (+246%)


Fresh Options Ideas:
NVDA Weekly $135-136 Calls
SPY 07/11 $561-562 Calls*
DAL Weekly $43.50-42.50 Puts
WDFC 07/19 $250 Calls
TSLA Weekly $265 Calls

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

Friday’s Movers, 4 Fresh Ideas

A Good End to the Short Week:

We closed out a very successful short trading week on Friday by hitting on the majority of the possible options ideas that we included in our premarket report for the day. We offered our readers four potential plays, and three of them returned big chances for some really nice intraday gains. We’re starting this week without much in the way of earnings reporters to base our ideas off of, but we always seem to manage during those dry spells, so we’re still gearing up for another good week of trading.

A Perfect Friday, New Plays for Today

Friday’s Clean Sweep :

We closed out last week’s activity with a stellar performance on Friday, as we signaled four possible options plays in our premarket report, and each of them turned out a very nice performance. We had a burst of earnings reporters to work with just shy of the next earnings season which should be ramped up and ready for us to take advantage of by next week. We’re back to a very thin list this morning, but we’ll still figure out some high potential targets like always.

As for Friday’s runners which brought us opportunities across the board, we had the JPM Weekly $146-147 Calls the WFC Weekly $39.50-40.50 Calls, the SGH 10/20 $20-17.50 Puts, and the PGR 10/20 $150 Calls. Here were the intraday moves they posted:
