What does the word disconnect mean? As a verb it means "to sever or interrupt the connection of or between; detach". Option trading - one day options - is a disconnect from the world. What happens to slightly "out-of-the-money" Call options on Costco when the stock shoot up thirty dollars on the day? I will show you what happened on Friday to Costco Calls and the options on a few other stocks I frequently watch. What a disconnect from the real world. But before that a look at how the indexes traded. 1) Costco. It's five day chart and a look at how three of it's option series moved upwards in one day. You may not know how to read these printouts but try to read the highs and lows on these option pricings. One printout shows an "at-the-money" option which means you are buying a contract on the stock, good for one day only at a locked in price equal to (or very close to) what the stock is currently trading at.

Mullens Again - Dangerous Unknows

I am coming off a $100.00 gain on Mullins an electric vehicle company I recently talked about. It's a hot potato. Some might say $100.00 is just a piddle. Here me out.
Here is the trade I did, this time in stock, not options. "In and Out" in one day and out at 6:01 a.m. Why was I up so early? I was in a tent in the dark during a rainstorm camping on the other side of the world when everyone in that campsite was sleeping. I caught a small bounce. Getting out in the premarkets got me out near the top of the day, higher than what the stock traded for on the 9:30 a.m. opening bounce. One of the things I noticed about playing this stock is that they show you premarket bids and asks. That can be a bonus. Premarket trading can sometimes be your best friend. My sell ticket was "at market" and on the purchase I specified the purchase price. "At market" is not scary with stocks trading this kind of volume.

This little bounce was a repeat performance of what happened one week before. It's one to think about. Maybe. * Mullens again.
Now look at the number of shares outstanding. It's a bit of a train wreck but it is kind of an interesting story.
With so many shares outstanding and with a need for constant amounts of new money this one is a dangerous hold. ** More mid February bad news. Inside selling and raising more money. Two things you don't want to see.
This continuous to be a stock to watch.
