As you can see there are a lot of dividends being spun out tomorrow. All of the stocks listed above are all dividend option plays. Therefore there isn't too much to analyze from today's most active option contracts. I didn't trade too much today, but one position I did open was on RINO International (RINO) I purchase December 30 strike call option contracts. I am hoping we get strength in the underlying very soon so I can complete my vertical call option spread by selling the December 35 strike call options against the. Happy trading!
