>>you're seeing unusual options activity in two stocks...let's start with northstar realty.a stock that had a really good year last year. the stock was up almost 90% over the past 52 weeks and is trading just off of its 52 week highs around $17.91. what we saw during friday's trading session, which was a relatively slow and thinly traded session, we saw them come in and buy huge blocks of out of the money calls out to march on the 18 line. 14 thousand had traded by the end of the session on friday. with the stock just off it's 52 week highs in a chart that you really can't get much more bullish. it's a great looking chart. this is a trade that i want to follow. i think this stock has some upside potential through march and when we see them come in and buy calls on a 52 week high we know that this institutional money has a relatively high level of conviction so that's something that i want to follow. >>through march? i'm wondering if that might even continue further into the summer? >>absolutely. we always keep an eye on what they do with this position after they establish it
