Big Day Friday, 3 New Ideas to Start the Week

Friday’s Furious Five:

The way we finished things up on Friday was precisely the kind of session we love to close out a trading week on, seeing gainers at every turn. We floated five options daytrading possibilities for our daily premarket report, and the results they returned were quite solid. Each and every set of our highlighted contracts, which were all long with the exception of the INTC Puts, experienced moderate-to-large intraday moves.

Those designated targets were the INTC Weekly $33-32 Puts, the MSFT Weekly $415-420 Calls, the GOOG Weekly $175-180 Calls, the SPY 04/26 $506-508 Calls, and the SNAP Weekly $13.50-14 Calls. Here were the largest intraday upswings that they exhibited, all well within multi-bag territory:

INTC Weekly $33-32 Puts

5 Big Ideas to Finish Out the Trading Week

Thursday Review:

It was another good day for us on Thursday, keeping up a solid run we’ve been having this week with a vast majority of the picks issued.

Things should play similarly today, as we’ve got another big slate of earnings reporters in the calendar.

Yesterday’s runners were the CAT Weekly $350-347.50 Puts, the HON Weekly $195-200 Calls, and the META Weekly $425-417.50 Puts. Here were the best moves we witnessed in those plays for the session::

A Winning Wednesday, 3 New Opportunities

Wednesday’s Recap:

Wednesday turned out to be another really good day for our options ideas. Four out of the five potential targets from our premarket report for the day were based off of untraded-upon earnings reports, and all four of those yielded some good intraday opportunities. The fifth was a swing-trade idea based of of some insider buying records, and we may yet come back for that one at a later date.

For today, we have the numbers yesterday’s earnings plays recorded for the session. Those were the TSLA Weekly $157.50-162.50 Calls, the BA Weekly $172.50-177.50 Calls, the BSX 05/17 $72.50-75 Calls, and the TXN Weekly $175-177.50 Calls, and their performances were as follows:
