Option Action Recap

The week might have ended, but it provided some incredible moves, which of course means even more incredible moves for stock options.  Today a 12% move for a stock sent its option up in some instances over 1,600%.  Earnings continue to move stocks in an exaggerated fashion.   We are just a few weeks removed from some of the more incredible gains we have ever seen in the market.  Two weeks ago I was talking about the $GOOGL $600 calls going from $.10 to $102.96.  OR $10 into $10,296 or $100 into $102,960.  Or potentially $1,000 into over  a million dollars.

With volatility plunging ever lower, stock options do not have the premium build up of years ago.  Also with penny increments, and weekly options, pricing power is better than its ever been before.
