From the link:

 

 

Shared the chart below of AMZN around the internet after the close last night with the suggestion that this was an obvious setup to buy puts or sell calls...

 

...AMZN had a big move down (as history whispered it would). The 1995 Put, expiring Friday, from the open peaked during the day up 260% and ended the day up 161% (see the companion chart below). That’s somewhere between $26,000 and $16,000 on a small $$10K capital commitment. Not bad for a day trade? This could drop more tomorrow making that put even more profitable but come on…it’s a home run with no need to risk an overnight reversal.

 

For a lot more discussion and the charts:
