The Deere Jump And A Decision To Make On Friday Morning If You Want To Catch The Action

-
Read my last blog. Yesterday John Deere shot up to the sky. Will there be a fallout today? That's the current question. The first printout shows the 645 series of Calls at 10:17 a.m. There was some action early in the morning. These options expire today.
Look at this printout. The Call options crashed on the opening and then rebounded. I can explain better what happened by showing both it's five day and one day chart.
Can you see the massive jump it had yesterday? Now can you see on the printout below how it dipped on the opening at 9:40.00 a.m. to 647.05? That's when the 645 Calls dipped down to $6.00 before jumping back up again and doubling in price.
One has to now wonder if the 9:40 a.m. reversal was a computer generated/Ai move given that it happened at exactly 9:30 a.m. So now what? Let's look at the current chart above and think about whether or not we want to buy the Puts to catch what looks like to be a fall. Here is one series to consider.
At 10:18 a.m. would you be happy with that decision? If so here is how they are trading 49 minutes later. Take a guess what they might be trading at. Are you ready to find out? Here they are.
Sellout and say thanks or wait. It's your call. Here is a new chart at 11:14 a.m. Deere seems to be hanging tough. That said, it's often wise to take any profit on a Friday when you see one.
Now it's five day chart at 11:25 a.m. which might help add a different perspective.
Can you see how the day is not over yet? Or is it? To be continued.

Waiting For A Drop On The Opening On Bad News - Eli Lilly

Here is the bad news. The company is Eli Lilly. How bad is this news? Well look at it trading in the premarkets. So what do I think? I think the news is a setback of sorts, but not really all that bad. The stock is going to open lower, that's a given. It's like trying to play Boeing after an announcement that an airplane has crashed. So the stock is going to crash and it might have a small rebound and then it's going to slide down some more. A test of sorts will happen sometime in the afternoon. It might stock falling but then where will it go from there? The best case scenario is a recognition that investors got it all wrong and the stock ends up flat on the day. Yet there might be more of a downward dumping of the stock on the close followed by a selloff on tomorrows opening. Should option players be jumping in to play the upside on next week's Calls? That is the question. Here is a look at Boeing on the days after a crash. Day two after the crash was equally as ...

News on Polestar , Lucid (Trading After A Reverse Stock Split) Plus Ford News And Vinfast

Look at the one year chart on Polester. Now it's one month chart. What's going on? It's confusing. It was down $.36 cents on the week. If you want you can spend $.20 or $.25 on Puts and hope that the company goes under in the next five or six months. They recently raised more money by releasing more shares so it's running out of options. You can't run at a loss forever and this news will most likely scare off potential new car buyers. This actually is a low number of outstanding Put options. The consensus seems to be that it is not game over yet. Lucid started trading this week on a "one-for-ten" reverse stock split. Here is its one week chart. It was down $1.39 on the week. It's also going to struggle. Both of these stocks have challenges ahead. On a more positive note here is a chart that looks kind of perky. Ford on the week. The stock was down $.03 cents on the week and it was the 3th highest in share volume trading on the NYSE. It appears...

A Fireside Chat - One Year Options and Thirty Day Options. Which is Better?

Some say to think small, not big. Trying to play Disney options is thinking big. It is a stock slightly out of favor. If we start with it's a three year chart, we will see it is down by about 50% over that period of time. Now it's one year chart. If the stock can break 110 in early 2024 the sky is the limit. It does have a lot of moving parts so anything could happen. Look at these Calls options one year out. One year in options buys a lot of time.They look reasonable. If the stock ever inched up to the $105.00 price level in the three or four months these options would jump up in price by about 50%. Even more if they had really good news. Yet it's the "what-if" aspect of the equation that castes such a trade in doubt. "What if" stories just don't cut it. There are to many variables in play. Then again, why are we even thinking of long-term Call options after a December's rally? Let's switch gears. If consumers are out spending for X-ma...
