Noticed Friday OKTA was still holding up well compared to the big SPY drop. Might be worth watching Tuesday as all the PTs and upgrades were quite bullish. I’m going to try and remember to read over the earnings call this weekend too.
Here’s the earnings from PM today (9/7). NIO was interesting in that it had a loss of $409.8 million in the second quarter, representing significantly widening losses, despite deliveries that surpassed year-ago levels and exceeded its own guidance.
I’m not 100% sure if Tesla is getting some negative sympathy from NIO or if it’s just the greater market.
Academy is up 6%, but volume/oi is pretty low on the options, and share volume is also usually pretty low. It usually holds up good against SPY after earnings, but in these times right now it seems too risky IMO. I might try for a single 9/16 call after the morning calms down if things look decent.
Looking at these I am not seeing any favorites. A lot depends on SPY and a lot of this is a mixed bag of crap. PATH could be good for puts but the price targets coming out ranged from low teens to high 20’s. Could try puts on it if it recovers a bit and gets rejected around 15. 17 hard resistance. 12 Big support. Academy has already jumped pretty high and is near ATH. 45.50 and 47.50 hard areas for it to get over. Might just be a watching day and trade the trend 1-2 times with SPY depending upon news and data. Not really liking the earnings this week so far.
Here is potential buy area for puts on PATH. It did recover some from my post on the forum on bad earnings/guidance but lots of price targets are still higher. 13.50 resistance from pre market. So far calls at open was right choice for some recovery from algo drop and SPY helped a bit
Had a little mini vacation. Back now. Looking at some of the post earnings this week. Even from tickers that posted last. Still seeing multi day runners like PDD DE HPQ did their respective directions seemingly as LULU has had we played one week out strikes most likely all would have printed and been ITM.
Just means all the more important going forward to watch the days with significant events. Such as the Friday before holiday weekend with important Econ numbers coming out same day.
Had a chance to glance at ASO and GTLB premarket this morning. Both were moving semi independent from broader market. Likely will watch those for multi day moves. And CASY that had a substantial beat. And also surpassed last quarter pretty heavily. Going to read their release in morning. Hope everyone has been making some money.
Earnings from this morning. Lovesac was a beat and is up 8.5%. J Pow is supposed to start talking at 9:10am and it’s supposed to be like a 40 minute discussion? We’ll see how pre-market starts reacting to his talk.
Zscaler and Docusign both had good earnings up 15% and 17% respectively, if market continues to be retarded tomorrow, calls could open could be a play for a quick scalp off morning pop
Going to throw a couple up here my 2 favorites are ZS and DOCU both beats. Both have been moderately beat down this year. Which means they could have some room to move back up.
Decent EPS beat revenue growth pretty strong. And increased Cash on hand pretty substantially. Mostly all numbers seem to be bullish.
ZS-WSJ average PT 205 80 percent buy rating. This one Id be leaning towards next Friday expiry for calls.

DOCU-WSJ PT of 68 and rating of hold. I could see this getting some upgrades in the AM which as we have noted is often times bullish. DOCU as well has been substantially beat down this year. And was largely previously substantially overvalued with pandemic bump. Numbers all look pretty bullish and will look at calls of JB support he called out above. Upgraded guidance which has also been strong with post er runs.

Be careful on DOCU IV cool at open. If miss the actual drop can put you underwater pretty quick. With IV being 350 plus I’ll mostly look at strikes just OTM to find unloading of contracts of people trying to salvage anything with low bids. If don’t fill will wait for support also will watch premarket movement to see if either are divergent of SPY. Think we have some potential good ones here.
KR had a beat raised guidance and announced a 1 billion share buyback. Pretty bullish could move some
