One- Day Options. Nvidia At 10:00 a.m. On A Monday Morning

The stock jumped on the opening and settled down thirty minutes later. Here are the details of that move. .. During this time period the real action was is buying the Puts just after it jumped on the opening. Now let's jump back to the 225 Calls at 11:46 a.m.. Do you get the feeling that this is just a game of luck? .... Now back to it's five day chart. Stop, stop stop. It's kind of crazy to be watching this stock in the hopes of making money on it's one day moves. Or is it? Look at the spike it had back on the opening on May 13th. Isn't the spike it had on the opening a repeat of the same situation? Let's make use of the "strategy". Is it a strategy to be fighting Nvidea on a Monday morning opening (purchasing the Puts) after you see an early morning trading rally? I would say yes.

Well I don't want to digress to far off topic however option trading can be an exacerbating experience. I missed the Boeing and Ford trading opportunites despite the fact that I anticipated both of these two companies would do well. Do I...

The Trade of the Year

Image
It's not that complicated however it kind of slipped under the radar. It was a big name company we all know called Lowes. The payoff was wild. What are we looking at? Options that closed on Thursday at ten cents a contract and opened at one cent the folling morning, a Friday which then then hit an interday high of one dollar and fifty cents. A one thousand dollar investment would have went as high as $150,000.00. Folks, all of this is legal and anyone can play it. You could have made it all by lunchtime. What happened? Well we are talking about the 200 series on Calls that expired yesterday on Friday July 23th. At the start of the trding session they were over $3.00 "out-of-the money. Very few traders saw value in them. Yet Lowes did close strong on Thursday the day before it. Then it wobbled a touch on the Friday opening and resumed it's upward charge. The price of lumber is dropping and many people are waiting to purchase lumber at these new lowering prices. The kicker ...
