Technicals
A confluence of support held ZM higher in the past week. It consists of a horizontal level at $120, which was prior resistance in late February and early March, and a rising trendline that dates back to late January. While above this area, the stock has the potential to extend higher, at least towards the next level of interest which falls at $135.

If you agree there's further upside ahead for ZM, consider this trade which is a bet that the stock will continue to advance over the next five weeks, or at least not decline very much.
Buy To Open ZM 08MAY20 120 Puts (ZM200508P120)
Sell To Open ZM 08MAY20 125 Puts (ZM200508P125) for a credit of $2.68 (selling a vertical)
This price was $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when ZM was trading near $128. 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 $266.70 and your broker would charge a $500 maintenance fee, making your investment $233.30 ($500 – $266.70). If ZM closes at any price above $125 on May 08, both options would expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 114% (1300% annualized).
