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. More Call option players have jumped in to play the upside that the downside. Might one do a spread and try to play it both ways hoping for a breakout either way? That's an option to consider. Disney has being a dog of a stock now for a year so might some profit taking set in? How is Disney going to pay for another theme park? With that on their plates forget any share buy back programs.

Buying A Stock After a Material Change of Events

Please listen to this logic. The week before last Krispy Kreme jumped on the Friday and ended up $2.76 on the week. The news was that the donut chain will begin to sell its products in most of the country's 14,000 U.S. McDonald's locations, requiring up to 30 new backeries to boost output.
Here is a look at it's ninety day chart.
Now here is a chart of how it traded last week.
With so many things to watch of higher quality I am not a fan of following this stock. My point however is to add stocks like this to your radar screens after major events like this. Why? Well the odds become greater of a second wave of buying kicking in. Look at the volume that poured into next weeks 15 series of Call options on Friday.
On Thursday they were trading for considerably less and notice that these were positions opened and not then sold out on the same day. Once again my point is not to be afraid of chasing action like this and it makes sense that it would pop again on a Friday. The decimation of good news is afterall a process of a delayed reaction. A Monday morning 11:02 a.m. look at the same story.
To be continued.
