$Home Depot And $Lowes On A Wednesday Morning

These are both what I would call "Big Boy"stocks which are somewhat volatile. Their price movements are often dictated by economic reports. Today is a Wednesday which is mid week in the weekly trading session. Options purchased this morning that expire this Friday will give you one full day of trading today and two more full days of trading. Both of these two stocks are up about $10.00 per shsre in the last two days. Both stocks can move either way. My focus is on the Puts which are both somewhat expensive. They have to be because these stocks are so volatile.Catch the right direction and you will do quite well.

Vinfast Hits The Lottery! And AMC. "Action On One Week Five Dollar Options"

Image
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.
