Options On Stocks In The $17.00 -$18.00 Range Are" Perky". The Stock in Play Is Rivian

I don't like playing options on stocks in this price range. It's exhausting because you have to watch them so closely. Look at this action today on the Rivian $17.00 series of Calls that expire in three days. . With this kind of chart a double in a Call price would have happened somewhere between the 10:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. time period. As a reader you might look at this statement with scepticism and say how could something move in price that much in one hour period of time? It's the leverage created by having a $17.00 stock swing fifty cents in one hour. The difficult part is in how to figure out when such a move is going to happen. Now look at today's price swing in one series of Lucid's Calls. . Tomorrow will also bring price swings. Let's continue to watch this series of Calls to help us get a better appreciation for mid week option trading on short term Call options of stocks in the $17.00 range. Now Wednesday. ..

This post is easy to write. It's also something skeptics of option trading should read. Look at how all on the options exploded on this one. Here is why. Both of these articles were from Nov26th and 27th. Why the time delay in having this stock pop is something I don't understand. Back on Sept 5th and Oct 27th I did I blogs on this stock. Go back and read them. Both times I ended these blogs by saying "Do your homework on this one". Read my blogs about playing options on $5.00 stocks. Here now is how Vinfast closed the day. Now look at how the five series of Calls closed on December 5th (with only one trading day of life left in them). Profits on options on five dollar stocks come and go quickly. Here is a quick look at another company with $5.00 options that expire tommorow which had a few hours of glory in the last two hours of trading today.
