Technicals
EDU has been trading in an upward trend channel since it bottomed at the start of last year. The recent decline that followed the earnings report was held higher by the lower bound of this channel and while the trend channel remains in play, the technical outlook remains bullish. In the past week, the stock rallied above, $131 which was important resistance late last month. In the process, it’s made a sequence of higher highs and higher lows from the January low which supports the view that the stock has resumed within its broader uptrend.

If you agree there's further upside ahead for NOW, consider this trade which is a bet that the stock will continue to advance over the next six weeks, or at least not decline very much.
Buy To Open NOW 13MAR20 330 Puts (NOW200213P330)
Sell To Open NOW 13MAR20 335 Puts (NOW200213P335) for a credit of $1.89 (selling a vertical)
This price was $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when NOW was trading near $338. Unless the stock rallies quickly from here, you should be able to get close to this amount.
Your commission on this trade will only be $1.30 per spread. Each contract would then yield $187.70 and your broker would charge a $500 maintenance fee, making your investment $312.30 ($500 – $187.70). If NOW closes at any price above $335 on March 13, both options would expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 60% (562% annualized).

Changes to Investor’s Business Daily (IBD) Top 50 This Week:
If you agree there's further upside ahead for EDU, consider this trade which is a bet that the stock will continue to advance over the next six weeks, or at least a little bit.
Buy To Open EDU 20MAR20 130 Puts (EDU200320P130)
Sell To Open EDU 20MAR20 135 Puts (EDU200320P135) for a credit of $2.18 (selling a vertical)
This price was $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when EDU was trading near $13.50. Unless the stock rallies quickly from here, you should be able to get close to this amount.
Your commission on this trade will only be $1.30 per spread. Each contract would then yield $216.70 and your broker would charge a $500 maintenance fee, making your investment $283.30 ($500 – $216.70). If EDU closes at any price above $135 on March 20, both options would expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 76% (750% annualized).
We have found that the Investor’s Business Daily Top 50 List has been a reliable source of stocks that are likely to move higher in the short run. Recent additions to the list might be particularly good choices for this strategy, and deletions might be good indicators for exiting a position that you might already have on that stock.
As with all investments, you should only make option trades with money that you can truly afford to lose.
Happy trading,
Terry

Investing in 5G is old news - buy this instead
Investing in 5G is old news. The "easy" money has been made and most 5G plays have already seen their biggest gains. This new technology was called "The future of AI, IoT, and 5G" by TechTarget. And the company behind it could turn into the next Cisco. I expect their $5 stock to climb to $90-and eventually as high as $1,200 per share.
Go here to see this new tech - and get my #1 way to profit.
