The Same Old Game Of Buying One Day Boeing Options On A Friday Morning

You decide. Do you like this chart? The real action in the Calls happened yesterday, on a day the DJIA was up almost 1,000 points. Now a look at these one day Calls options 10 minutes into the trading session. It's early in the day. It's 9:51 a.m. .... Is the stock stabilizing? Let's move down one series of Call options.We are still in the first thirty minutes of trading. Now a 10.10 a.m. look at the 217.50 Calls. Now the 220 Calls we first started looking at. What's going to happen? To be continued. The closing numbers and a one day chart. It didn't disappoint. The 1:20 p.m. time period was the time to get out. Here is how the DJIA closed the day. So you might say that this is a stupid game to play with the risk levels amazingly high. Space X was abuzz with news today and Boeing had a scorching hot day yesterday.

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

Image
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?
