Here’s what the desk actually sent in June 2026, with nothing left on the cutting-room floor. 14 alerts went out. 11 of them reached at least a +50% max opp, and the average across all 14 landed at +111% maximum opportunity. The standout idea was AMZN, which printed a +282% max opp.
This is the full tape, not a highlight reel. We walk through the ideas that worked, the ones that didn’t, and what each one had to teach, because that’s the only kind of look-back worth reading.

A note on timing. This recap is a snapshot as of September 2, 2026. 5 of these 14 contracts (LUV, MGNI, SBUX, UPST and UBER) had not yet reached expiration when we published, so their books are not fully closed. The max opp and drawdown for those are what had printed through publication, and they can still change until they expire.
How to read this blueprint
What “max opp” means.The best the contract could have done between the alert and its peak. It is not what any member made and not a result we’re claiming. It is just the full scope of the opportunity the setup put on the table.
Why we publish the misses too.You’ll see our losers right next to our biggest winners. An honest scorecard is the only kind worth keeping. All 3 misses are in the full tracker below.
These are educational ideas.Pure Power Picks is an options education service. Every alert is a teaching example for how to read setups and manage risk, never a recommendation to act.

Max Opp
// What we sent to members
Positioned for potential bounce, look for a reclaim back into $240 and into / over $245 – 247.5 in the coming days. A push through that opens up $250 and a run back into the $256 – 258 target range where the recent swing high sit. With more time and a break over $258.6 target $278.56+ 52wk high for maximum opportunities before expiration. Use support $238.85 – 237.45 – 233 for strong risk : reward.
The idea: Buy Call Options · Strike $270.00 Calls · Exp August 21, 2026 · alerted $5.25/contract
On August 3, 2026, the contract traded as high as $20.05, a +282% maximum opportunity, about 34 trading days after the alert.
The path, honestly: it wasn’t a straight line. The contract closed as low as -82% below the alert before this high. That’s exactly why each alert is framed as a plan with levels, not just a ticker: the thesis lays out the support zones the idea is built on and the level where it would no longer be valid. With single options this volatile, the drawdown is part of the story, not a footnote.

Anticipate HOOD to reclaim and break over $94.40 – $95.24 near term to trigger upside into $100 psychological level in the coming days – weeks. With more time, a break over $100 opens up $110 – $117.70 – 125. Max opportunity would be a move into 130 – 140 supply before expiration. Use support at $90 – $85 for strong risk:reward. If $85 fails, anticipate deeper pullback risk into $80 – $75 range.
The idea: Buy Call Options · Strike $120.00 Calls · Exp August 21, 2026 · alerted $4.15/contract
On July 2, 2026, the contract traded as high as $13.40, a +223% maximum opportunity, about 22 trading days after the alert.
The path, honestly: it wasn’t a straight line. The contract closed as low as -42% below the alert before this high. That’s exactly why each alert is framed as a plan with levels, not just a ticker: the thesis lays out the support zones the idea is built on and the level where it would no longer be valid. With single options this volatile, the drawdown is part of the story, not a footnote.

+178%
Max Opp
// What we sent to members
Look for HIMS to move back into and over $28 – 29 near term after holding above the weekly 13ema. A break over $29.82 can bring HIMS into $32 – 35 – 38 targets in the coming weeks. With more time, look for a move into $42 – 45 – 48 for maximum opportunities before expiration. Use support $25.50 – 24 range for strong risk : reward.
The idea: Buy Call Options · Strike $30.00 Calls · Exp August 21, 2026 · alerted $4.00/contract
Basis note: the contract never traded back down to the $3.95 alert print, so the tracker measures from $4.00, the lowest it actually changed hands at afterwards. Every figure below divides by that more conservative number.
On July 6, 2026, the contract traded as high as $11.10, a +178% maximum opportunity, about 19 trading days after the alert.
The path, honestly: a steadier path. The contract’s deepest close was -11% below the alert. Even so, the thesis levels are part of the picture, not just the opening tick.

// What we sent to members
Strong breakout move, anticipate continuation in the coming days – weeks. Target a move into $47 – 48 – 50 near term. With more time, target upside into $52 – 55 – 58.5 supply zone for maximum opportunities before expiration. Use support $45 – 40.5 for strong risk : reward.
The idea: Buy Call Options · Strike $50.00 Calls · Exp September 18, 2026 · alerted $2.53/contract
On June 26, 2026, the contract traded as high as $6.35, a +151% maximum opportunity, about 10 trading days after the alert.
The path, honestly: a clean ride. It held above the alert price the whole way to this high, tracking close to the plan.

$MGNI Magnite Inc.

+142%
Max Opp
// What we sent to members
Anticipating continuation into last week’s high $19.27. Use this as a trigger for upside breakout into 20 – 21 in the coming days. A breakout over $22 could send MGNI into +25 – 26.55 with more time. A breakout over that and 2021 price range supply $32.5 comes into play as max opportunity before expiration. Look for short term support $17 – 15.75. If $15.75 does not hold, MGNI risks a deeper momentum killing pullback back into $15 and potentially lower.
The idea: Buy Call Options · Strike $20.00 Calls · Exp January 15, 2027 · alerted $3.10/contract
Basis note: the contract never traded back down to the $2.85 alert print, so the tracker measures from $3.10, the lowest it actually changed hands at afterwards. Every figure below divides by that more conservative number.
On August 7, 2026, the contract traded as high as $7.50, a +142% maximum opportunity, about 32 trading days after the alert.
The path, honestly: a steadier path. The contract’s deepest close was -10% below the alert. Even so, the thesis levels are part of the picture, not just the opening tick.

* Still open. That contract has not reached expiration, so the tracker has not settled a final verdict on it yet and the figures can still change. adj. The contract never traded back down to the alerted price after the alert went out, so the basis is the lowest price it actually printed instead. It is the more conservative number, and the percentages on that row divide by it.
How to read the Max Dip column. The Max Dip is the deepest each contract closed below its alert price before it ever reached its high: a real, sustained daily close, not an intraday wick. Some runs were nearly straight lines, others demanded real conviction: LUV’s +151% never closed below the alert price at all, and AMZN’s +282% only came after the contract closed down -82%. Max opp is the ceiling a contract reached. The dip is exactly why every alert is framed as an educational plan with levels, not just a ticker: the thesis lays out the support zones the idea is built on, the targets it’s aiming for, and the level where it would no longer be valid. With single options this volatile, the full path matters as much as the headline number.
// What didn’t work
And what each miss teaches
A recap that only shows the highlight reel isn’t education, it’s marketing. Here are the 2 ideas that fell short of +50% and have already expired. One more alert is under that bar today but still trading, so it sits in the full tracker below rather than here.
The lesson in almost every miss is the same one we teach in the room every week: the setup has to confirm before it means anything. An alert names a level, a trigger, and a point where the idea no longer holds. When the trigger never fires, or the level the whole idea rests on breaks, the setup simply never came together. The discipline that keeps a miss small is the same discipline that lets a winner run.
$GM
GM Call Missed Under +50% Short of +50% · +27% max opp
The idea called for GM to ride momentum into $85 with the all-time high near 87.62 as the near-term target. The bigger thesis leaned on a break above the ATH triggering impulsive moves toward $90 to 105, using $80, 79, and 77.5 as support. In reality, the alert topped out at +27% and never confirmed the breakout above the all-time high. Momentum stalled before clearing that key ceiling, so the extended upside targets stayed hypothetical rather than realized.
The lesson: A thesis that depends on breaking an all-time high is only validated once that level is actually cleared. Until confirmation, the upside beyond it remains speculative.
$GOOG
GOOG Call That Fell Short Short of +50% · +27% max opp
The idea called for GOOG to push into and over $375 to $380, with a break carrying toward $390 to $400 and eventually the ATH near 404.47. Support at $360 to $350 framed the risk, with $343 flagged as deeper backup if $350 gave way. In practice, the move stalled and the option’s max opportunity topped out around +27%, staying under our +50% threshold. The blue-sky continuation the thesis leaned on never materialized before the premium began eroding.
The lesson: Targets stacked above a stock still trading below them are theoretical until price confirms the break. When a move stalls under its first level, time value works against an option regardless of how clean the setup looked.
