Caterpillar Calls Rock

They keep going up. Yet this morning, a Monday morning the DJIA is down. Can you fight a strong stock or are you just throwing money into the wind? Deere, Caterpillar and Boeing are all also on an upward terror. Now a look at these Caterpillar Puts at 10:41 a.m. which expire at the end of the week. The open interest in this series of Puts going into todays trading session is zero. What about the action in the Calls. Are option traders playing them? Well yes and no.

Go back and read them. Both times I ended these blogs by saying "Do your homework on this one". Read my blogs about playing options on $5.00 stocks. Here now is how Vinfast closed the day. Now look at how the five series of Calls closed on December 5th (with only one trading day of life left in them). Profits on options on five dollar stocks come and go quickly.
