This is what Nic Chahine averages with his options 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.


Shares of several digital advertising companies, including The Trade Desk Inc (NASDAQ:TTD), Magnite Inc (NASDAQ:MGNI) and PubMatic Inc (NASDAQ:PUBM), are trading lower in Thursday's after-hours session after Snap Inc (NYSE:SNAP) reported worse-than-expected financial results.

The social media company reported a quarterly loss of 2 cents per share, which missed the estimate for a loss of 1 cent per share. Daily active users increased 18% year-over-year to 347 million.
