"Ford Puts" Com.

Can daytraders catch the action like this? 99% of daytraders don't. I watch it, I track it, I occassionally catch some of the action. This morning there was an incredible score to be had. Let me spell it out in greater detail. Look at this chart. It shows how the Ford stock opened on the opening. It opened up about ten cents. That's what the above chart shows. Now let's move on. The next chart is a five day chart. The D.J.I.A. dropped over one thousand points yesterday. Ford surged upwards on an earnings release an then had a partial selloff in the afternoon. Now if you look carefully at this five day chart you will see the slight rebound on the opening. (The one day chart actually shows it better). The 15 series of Ford Puts that expire tomorrow got squeezed. Look at how much they got squeezed for. At the height of this mornings 10 cent uptick they got squeezed down to $.04 per contract. Now lets check in at 11:55 a.m. Can you see how they hit a high of $.42 cents?. I ...

Ford - An Earning Report

Ford is going electric, that's the buzz. We all know the story. Earnings just came out on the stock and the Call options jumped on the opening. If you were playing options you had to get out just after the opening. With option plays on earning reports that's usually the way to best way play them. First, I will show the prior day's action. There was a gap down on the opening and 94 million shares traded. That's a large number. People were cashing out after recent good times. Now here is a chart of Ford the next day and here is how two option series traded. Buy in at the close and sell out just after the opening. Look at how high each series traded up to just after the opening. The earning numbers were not all that great but it's the buzz about going electric. Ford is one of the better stocks out there to play earning report releases. ** Scroll up to the upper left and read my most recent blog on MacDonald's earning report.

McDonald's And An Earnings Report

I was sitting in the drive through line yesterday at McDonalds redeeming a free coffee sticker won from being there a few days prior. It was a long line up for mid-afternoon. I am not a fast food junkie. I found myself thinking of how the Domino Pizza stock was on a terror for much of last year but not so much now. When we were all locked in last year everyone was ordering their pizza. I was also wondered if they would now accept my little free coffee sticker as it was only thumbnail size. Then when I pulled up to the drive thru window I hit a patch of bees. Apparently for whatever reason they were enjoying being at that window. They gave me my free coffee. Boy it was busy there. I note in this option series that there were only 292 open contracts. That small number suprises me. Why didn't more option players see this coming?
