Up Today And Down Tomorrow. A Day Of Peace Talk News.

Let's start with Home Depot and then move on to Caterpillar and Eli Lilly. ... .... ... All three of these series of Puts have two full days of trading life in them. These are not normal times and all three of these series of Puts are attracting next to no interest. Is the U.S. on the hook for all the damages it has created. That's never going to happen. Playing the upside is to expensive and playing the downside on strong stocks is a losing game. Is this upside move now a case of excess exuberance? I think so.

Tesla And The Play Of The Week - An Easy Read.

Here is Telsa's five day chart. Can you see how it spiked to the upside on Friday morning before it tanked? Can you see how as the day progressed it dipped down to the support level of the $210.00 range? Here is its one day chart. Now this. Lucky in all this action are all those individuals who purchased one day Puts on Telsa in the first few minutes of trading. Look at how these Puts reacted. The lows of the day happened in the first few minutes of trading. Look at the pecentage gains. In the last example a $1.00 option went to $190.00 in one day. Catching one trade like this could make up for twenty bad trades. What's all this talk of Ai trading? Moves like this could blow up the exchanges if thousand of trading platforms could recognize this could happen. This was one of the best option trading opportunities of the year.
