Booking Yet another Pair of 140%-Plus Options Gains

With your PAL March $7.00 calls up 140% and your RIG May $80.00 calls up 146%, sell all of your remaining options to lock in your triple-digit percentage gains. Note that your RIG options gained this amount in only six trading days.

Rest assured, I intend to recommend new options on each of these in the near future on any sign of an (inevitable) pullback. Recall that I did the same with Sina Corporation.

If you would like a reminder of my philosophy regarding taking profits in options trades, you can review my introductory video to Global Bull Market Alert.

On the down side, I am recommending that you close out your UEC Feb $7.50 calls at a loss. These actually doubled in price yesterday — but the chances of UEC hitting $7.50 in a month are slim. Best to cut your losses here.
