> thank you >> if you are looking at a cheaper way to get into nvidia right now, let's bring in mike khouw an options strategy on this name. mike, people feel like they missed it, people are afraid of owning the stock up here what do you do >> yeah, i mean, it's -- it's a difficult one, right so, people may have been sitting there, thinking, i'm going to wait until we get some news out of earnings and then when i get the good news, then i'll buy it and they wake up and find that the stock is almost $90 higher and that can be a difficult situation. another difficult thing, and karen was actually alluding to this, is going out and buying calls, the september at the money calls cost roughly 11% of the current stock price. so, is there a way to get upside participation without necessarily either having to chase the stock at its current levels, or just reaching out and needing the stock to make a big move higher for tow see profits? one way to do that would be to use a call spread risk reversal. i was looking at the september 1100 calls, you would buy those, sell the 1200 calls and then also se

mike khouw has the options read.s been staggering the past couple of days. >> yeah, they're back, it would seem. the stocks themselves are not back to the prior highs in some cases that they had seen, but the options volumes have certainly recovered. we have a couple examples here. the buyers were most active in the may 10 strike calls which expire at the end of this week, 25,000 of those traded for 81 cents on average. virgin galactic traded 7.3 times the average call volume. about 18,000 traded for 16 cents. and lucid group traded 6.2 times its average call volume, may 3 1/2 calls, most active, 36,000 or so traded for about 16 cents. and every one of these cases, the traders are betting on moves of 30% to 35% and risking 6% to 12% of the current stock price. they all have very high short interest. >> what kind of action have you seen in gamestop and amc? >> very much the same thing, actually. most of these, you know, really beaten down stocks, basically, it's the whole theme. people are screaming for high short int

carter worth and mike khouw. what do the charts show, carter. >> get right to it. first look at what the stock has done the past five quarters. we have a table. and michael will speak to this later but the implied move is actually sort of muted about 7 to 8%. but that hasn't happened once in the past five quarters. here on the screen you can see it's been a big up, big down, or unch and yet this time it's implied something sort of muted. to the charts, three identical charts, and we can draw the lines several different ways. the first thing to note, of course, this was basically a range-bound stock between 400 and 500 for about eight months and then essentially doubled, went from 450 to 950. let's look at that consolidation, and draw some lines here. so, again, this is the question, this kind of formation, more often than not is resolved to the upside. what's important is a fairly muted up. not one of the big ones, my guess. final chart, i think you can anticipate we stay sort of in this range, and well, one can say that's still good eating from here. i don't think
