Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. stock trades under the ticker CLF & closed at $12.59/share on 12/7/2020.

CLF stock has been on a solid growth trajectory since mid-November 2020, and shows signs of profit opportunities for short & medium-term traders alike.

CLF Stock Price: $12.59

10 Day Moving-Average: $11.57

50 Day Moving-Average: $8.68

200 Day Moving-Average: $6.11

RSI: 77

With an RSI of 77, CLF is likely going to ease in price in the near-term, offering an opportunity for common-share investors to buy into a more advantageous price as it establishes its new range.

Their MACD trend suggests this as well, so I would be watching these numbers & lines while trying to decide an entry, if I were looking to go long the common shares.

In terms of options, I may look at the $12 calls that are already in the money with a delta that is greater than .74, and or the at-the-money $12.50 calls.

From a puts perspective, the $13 puts has a delta of -0.6956, suggesting that during the correcting of price range, a small amount of movement will move the price of your option in a large way, and as they’re quoted at $0.55 vs. $1.47 for the $14 puts (delta -0.88), you’ll be able to make a little more bang for your buck on that price range establishment.

Overall, CLF stock looks to still have legs under it to continue growing, and their options also look appealing.

I’ll be eyeing their options for a possible trade today & tomorrow.

Aqua Bounty Technologies, Inc. stock trades under the ticker AQB & has broken out by over 100% since the end of October 2020.

AQB stock closed at $9.62/share on 12/7/2020 & looks to have more room to run as it establishes a new price range to trade in.

This means that there is an opportunity to short & medium-term traders to take advantage of profit opportunities from AQB stock & options.

AQB Stock Price: $9.62

10 Day Moving-Average: $5.75

50 Day Moving-Average: $4.49

200 Day Moving-Average: $3.16

RSI: 90

AQB stock’s RSI is overbought at 90, signaling that there will be some evening out in pricing as it establishes a new range after a very strong December performance that began with a high volume gap up on 11/30/2020.

If trading the common shares, I would wait for a little pullback before diving in, as with the overly inflated RSI there is room for the price to even itself out a bit before continuing to climb upwards.

From an options perspective, the $10 calls are just about at-the-money, while the closest strike price for in-the-money calls is $7.50; if you’re worried about AQB’s price being impacted by broader market conditions in the near-term, I would choose the $7.50 strike price.

From a puts perspective, given that the strike price options are $10 or $12.50 for at or in-the-money, the $10 is likely the best option based on prices, as in the pre-market on 12/8/2020 the $10 strike puts are $1.98, while the $12.50 are $3.95, making there more room to lose money on the $12.50’s.

All-in-all, AQB stock & options offer a lot of potential profit & growth opportunities for traders, and I will be watching their options today & tomorrow for an entry.

Terex Corporation stock trades under the ticker TEX & closed at $34.60 on 12/4/2020.

TEX stock has shown technical strength over the last couple of months & experienced a gap up day on 12/4 – making it worth taking a closer look at for short-term traders & investors alike.

Terex stock has options, making it easier for traders to capitalize on their short-term momentum, while also being able to hedge against any larger market declines that may impact their share price.

TEX Stock Price: $34.60

10 Day Moving-Average: $32.05

50 Day Moving-Average: $26.61

200 Day Moving-Average: $19.86

RSI: 70

While Terex’s RSI is a bit high at 70, there still looks to be room to climb for their shares.

I am looking at the $34 calls, as well as the $34 puts for a hedge, as they begin to establish a new range after their recent gap up.

Overall, TEX stock still seems to have room to run, giving traders of all different time frames an opportunity for profit.

Party City Holdco Inc. stock trades under the ticker PRTY & closed at $5.07/share on 12/3/2020.

PRTY stock looks to have more room for growth in the near-term, which can be taken advantage of through common shares, or their options.

PRTY Stock Price: $5.07

10 Day Moving-Average: $4.41

50 Day Moving-Average: $2.94

200 Day Moving-Average: $1.80

RSI: 71

Today will likely be a bit of a risk off day, which will help their RSI go down to a more reasonable level that is less overbought.

With that in mind, short-term focused traders who want to use common shares of PRTY stock to profit from momentum may have an opportunity for entry today.

From an options standpoint, I like the $5 calls, and the $5.50 puts, as given that it’s Friday & there may be a risk-off day both are already in-the-money.

By having both you are protected to an extent from whatever movement that PRTY stock has today/Monday, depending on how long you want to hold them for.

Marathon Patent Group, Inc. stock trades under the ticker MARA, closing on 12/2/2020 at $5.76/share.

After a couple of gap up days in November, MARA stock is performing well on a technical basis, making it worth considering for a short-term trade idea.

MARA stock also has options in addition to common shares.

MARA Stock Price: $5.76

10 Day Moving-Average: $4.68

50 Day Moving-Average: $2.75

200 Day Moving-Average: $1.64

RSI: 70

While its RSI is a bit steep at 70, the pre-market price says that MARA stock still has room to run.

The $6 calls for MARA look appealing, as they are about at-the-money in the pre-market already; although I may target the $5 calls for a little more money.

The puts will get cheaper as they continue to climb, although if they break their resistance point, the almost at-the-money $6 puts will likely not perform well, so I would wait until the $7.50 & $9 puts become cheaper.

Innodata Inc. stock trades under the ticker INOD & closed at $5.38/share on 12/2/2020.

After a very strong November, INOD looks to have some opportunity for short-to-mid-term traders to capitalize on as we begin December.

INOD Stock Price: $5.38

10 Day Moving-Average: $4.35

50 Day Moving-Average: $3.22

200 Day Moving-Average: $1.83

RSI: 78

While INOD’s RSI will need to cool off a bit (signaling an overbought tendency at 78), traders still have room to capitalize on its upwards momentum.

INOD also has options, where traders should be looking at the $5 calls, and if feeling aggressive pursue the $7.50 calls.

The pre-market pricing on the $7.50 calls is insanely cheap, but you’ll be betting on no market forces dragging them down in the meantime.

From a puts perspective, the $7.50 is the best looking option, although that will likely not be a major play, unless there is some major market movement across the board, and or if you capitalize on some short-term hiccups while INOD stock establishes its range.

Fuel Tech, Inc. stock trades under the ticker FTEK & has recently broken out (on 11/24/20202).

FTEK stock shows great opportunity for a short term trading perspective, both for holders of common shares & options traders.

FTEK closed at $4.40 on 11/30/2020, and still looks to have more room to run.

FTEK Stock Price: $4.40

10 Day Moving-Average: $2.57

50 Day Moving-Average: $1.16

200 Day Moving-Average: $0.85

RSI: 80

While their RSI of 80 is high, it will die down in near time while FTEK stock establishes its new range.

From an options perspective, I am looking at the $5 puts & the $4 calls at the moment while it sorts itself out.

There’s still room for upward growth, but the charts are showing that there will be some profit taking before that happens.

Today’s futures are signaling a green day, but FTEK may be sitting it out, making it worth looking at entry opportunities for common shareholders.

I’ll be looking to play the options I outlined above.

Tuniu Corporation stock has recently shown great technical growth & performance, trading under the ticker TOUR.

TOUR stock closed at $3.19/share on 11/27/20, preparing to close out November as a very strong month.

TOUR has options, in addition to common shares, making opportunities for all types of traders to profit from their stock performance.

TOUR Stock Price: $3.19

10 Day Moving-Average: $2.40

50 Day Moving-Average: $1.36

200 Day Moving-Average: $1.17

RSI: 77

While their RSI of 77 is still high, Tuniu corporation’s stock still looks to have legs to run, as it establishes a new range.

Traders of the common shares should be able to find advantageous entry points this week.

TOUR’s $2.50 calls are already in-the-money, with the $5 strike price being the next level.

Given that in the pre-market they are already beyond last week’s resistance level, the $5 calls aren’t as out of the question anymore, with a delta of .364.

From a puts perspective, I’d be favoring the $5 strike price, at the moment, unless they outperform that $5 mark, in which case the $7.50 puts will become cheaper.

Riot Blockchain, Inc. stock trades under the ticker RIOT & closed for trading at $7.23 on 11/23/2020.

RIOT stock has recently been on a tremendous upswing, and looks to have more strength carrying it into the near future, making it worth consideration for a short-term trade.

RIOT Stock Price: $7.23

10 Day Moving-Average: $4.57

50 Day Moving-Average: $3.47

200 Day Moving-Average: $2.41

RSI: 72

With an RSI of 72, there is still room for RIOT to run in the next day or two, making a buying opportunity for common shares & call options alike.

I am favoring the $7 calls, and the $8 puts for RIOT stock options, as today’s pre-market pricing shows that there is still strength to be had, but within the next few days the puts will prove valuable as a hedge.

I’ll be watching the chart closely over the next week, but looking to purchase the options mentioned above this morning, favoring the calls.

As always, I encourage you to research RIOT stock before purchasing, but this does look to have some great potential in its current state.
