Looking for Unusual Experiences. "BigBear".

There is a little stock that has recently started to gain an inordinate amount of attention. It trades millions of shares per day and I recently started blogging about it. It's price changes on a daily basis can be dramatic. Here once again are it's details. Now it's thirty day and five day chart. Option players playing one week options on this stock are getting wild rides. Look at this, today's one day chart. Now look at today's Puts. It's one day, six series of Puts on it traded at a low of $.03 cents in the morning and then shot up in the afternoon. $.35 cents was the high. Is there any point in taking this stock seriously and tracking how it's options are trading? Usually I would say not really however when I see millions of shares trading everyday I know that millions of Americans who can trade commission free can glue themselves to their computer screens and play like these these options all day long enjoying these two and three and ten cent price...

Well I don't want to digress to far off topic however option trading can be an exacerbating experience. I missed the Boeing and Ford trading opportunites despite the fact that I anticipated both of these two companies would do well. Do I...

The Trade of the Year

It's not that complicated however it kind of slipped under the radar. It was a big name company we all know called Lowes. The payoff was wild. What are we looking at? Options that closed on Thursday at ten cents a contract and opened at one cent the folling morning, a Friday which then then hit an interday high of one dollar and fifty cents. A one thousand dollar investment would have went as high as $150,000.00. Folks, all of this is legal and anyone can play it. You could have made it all by lunchtime. What happened? Well we are talking about the 200 series on Calls that expired yesterday on Friday July 23th. At the start of the trding session they were over $3.00 "out-of-the money. Very few traders saw value in them. Yet Lowes did close strong on Thursday the day before it. Then it wobbled a touch on the Friday opening and resumed it's upward charge. The price of lumber is dropping and many people are waiting to purchase lumber at these new lowering prices. The kicker ...
