This caught my interest:
“I’ve been researching $GT Goodyear Tire quite a bit lately after it’s over reaction in February when the stock dropped by almost 30%. On Friday, 4/1, there was a block of 4,000 calls bought at $18 strike with 7/15 expiration. That’s about a 25% premium to yesterday’s close.”
Interesting, just grabbed some of those for a .35 fill.
I’ve always had good luck following these big OI increases, trying to get a fill for those strikes at .30
The $17’s are also fairly cheap at $0.40 same expiry. I put in an order for a handful of those.
I put in for 1X @ .30 just to join the crowd if it fills (well within my start it on fire fund)
Could be a earnings - run play - as they are “Expected Apr 29, Pre-Market”
The volume on these is not very good. 3 volume for the $17’s, less than 200 for the $18s
