Case Study - Interesting option activity CIEN April 28,2009
Ciena (CIEN) calls were actively traded Monday. Shares slipped 38 cents to $10.83 and total options volume rose to 8X the normal levels. There was no obvious company specific news to explain the action, but it was decidedly bullish. 29,000 calls and 2,000 puts traded. A lot of the volume was concentrated in June 12.5 calls, where nearly 25,000 contracts traded or about 60X the existing open interest. In addition, with about 68 percent of the volume hitting ask-side, it appears that buyers were dominating the action and positioning themselves for a rally in shares of the network-equipment maker.
What should we do? We can trade stock

CIEN start 1/3 or 1/2 position here at 10.9, set stop 10.5,

on CIEN, 200ema is at 11.49. and there is slightly negative divergence, if it can pass 11.49, this negative divergence won't count, otherwise, it is likly go with the rest of Q's until news, etc. hit.. that tells why yesterday those option trades did
note here Q's means QQQQ

CIEN is build up an acsending triangle here, if it gets volume and breaks HOD, it will break the triangle UP, move my stop to 11.40 now.

CIEN is at 11.80, move stop to 11.50, also my trading rule says if I have a stock that moves 10% 1-2 days after I enter, I will exit 1/2 and take that 10% profit.

I sold June $10 put at $1 (cien), small amount)
QQQ said...
Wahaa sold puts, she is super bullish on CIEN bet it will never go down below 10.

It also means that I'm willing to become a owner if it drops under $10 by June. My average cost will be $9 a share.

I'm closing CIEN put. (Sold it at $1, now try to buy back at $0.55),I don't want a winning position become a losing one.
