|
Pretium Resources has seen its stock price double in recent months, and one investor is looking for even more gains by the end of the year.
optionMONSTER's market scanner shows that 1,250 September 7 calls were sold for $4.80 and 1,500 December 7 calls were purchased for $5.20 yesterday. Volume was below open interest in the September contracts, indicating that a bullish position was rolled forward by three months.
Long calls lock in the price where investors can buy stock, allowing them to profit from a rally with limited capital at risk. Their cheap cost can also generate significant leverage on a percentage basis if shares move in the right direction. (See our Education section)
