*Fri 7/17/15:

RMBS reports earnings Mon. Someone on Fri bought 5,000 RMBS Jul 13 calls, which expire in one day, when RMBS fell towards 12 3/4 for 0.02 or $10,000. Then, RMBS rose to about 13 1/4 and the calls could've been sold for at least 0.20 or $100,000. RMBS short ratio was high and bounced later. Also, big gains could've been made with FCX Jul 16 calls, when FCX fell towards 15 1/2 and then rose to about 16 1/4 intraday. FCX was in a downtrend for over three weeks falling from 20 1/2 towards 16 and then falling below 16 on Fri, the day options expire. RMBS was also in a downtrend for three weeks, falling from 15 1/4. However, a strategy will be needed, e.g. in case of buying too soon.
