Looking For Options That Can Have Big Moves On A Near Regular Basis. This Might Help.

Since the start of the year I have done 9 blogs on Tesla, 8 blogs on Caterpillar, 6 blogs on Eli Lilly, 5 blogs on Exxon and less on others. Guess which stock fascinates me the most for option trading? The answer is Exxon and I want to share with you one of the most dramatic one day option price swings I have witnessed this year.
