27% profit every 20 days?

This is what Nic Chahine averages with his option buys. Not selling covered calls or spreads… BUYING options. Most traders don’t even have a winning percentage of 27% buying options. He has an 83% win rate. Here’s how he does it.


  • The FDA has placed a partial clinical hold on Nuvation Bio Inc's (NYSE:NUVB) Phase 1 dose-escalation study of NUV-422 in solid tumors.
  • The company's Phase 1 trial began enrolling patients in December 2020 and, in recent months, was exploring higher doses to define a maximum tolerated dose. 
  • Following the emergence of uveitis, a form of inflammation in the eye, in certain patients receiving NUV-422, the company paused the enrollment of new patients to assess these adverse events further.

  • While the partial hold is in place, no new patients will be enrolled in the NUV-422 program, although current study participants may continue to be treated in the Phase 1 study.
  • The company says that with $737.7 million in cash, it is well-positioned to continue developing all of its internal product candidates.
  • The company will provide updates on the direction of the NUV-422 program after it has completed its internal risk-benefit analysis, which will factor in feedback from FDA.
  • Price Action: NUVB shares are down 7.04% at $3.88 during the premarket session on the last check Monday.
