Late To The Party Option Players - Disney

Can late to the party option traders make money? It's something to consider? These Call options expire this Friday. There was news on it before the opening today. The second chart below a few minutes later shows it hanging tough. At 10:01 a.m. we now checking out the Puts. The bid and ask on the Puts are very tight. That also makes us ask what happened to the Disney 101 Calls that we first looked at? Here is what the chart now looks like.

Nio And An Earnings Report

So now what. It's one year chart.
Now this. Look at how it dropped on the opening.
Now this. Nio was down $1.16 nine minutes into the opening action.
So what make of all this. Production is off, the stock is now discounted, buy "Calls" like five months out for protection and try to get a quick rebound. Here is what happened.
In at $163 and out at $238. Nio is not going away and this morning's dip was an overeaction. Plays like this are more common than you might think.** Here is a look at it a few days later. Mathematically it's inprobable that the "open interest" number has remained unchanged.
