Chasing Unusual Charts. Pfizer

This stock had an unusual trading pattern last Friday. It is now Monday morning and this weeks option trading will be shortened by one day because of thanksgiving on Thursday. Here is the stock chart I am referring to. $24.50 to $25.50 in one day and now chilling at $25.00. It now has to move one way up or down. How do you decide which way? That's the issue. To buy both the Calls and the Puts means that you are going to get burnt one way. Here are the pricings on both the Puts and the Calls two minutes into the opening trading. The open interest in both the Calls and Puts is next to nothing. One thing is for certain. Traders are soon going to wake up to this action.

This post is easy to write. It's also something skeptics of option trading should read. Look at how all on the options exploded on this one. Here is why. Both of these articles were from Nov26th and 27th. Why the time delay in having this stock pop is something I don't understand. Back on Sept 5th and Oct 27th I did I blogs on this stock. 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. Here is a quick look at another company with $5.00 options that expire tommorow which had a few hours of glory in the last two hours of trading today.
