Speaking on
CNBC's Options Action
, Dan Nathan analyzed options trading action in
Nike IncNKE
on Thursday. Options trading volume was two times higher than the average daily options volume and put options outnumbered call options. Nathan noticed a large trade when the stock was around $95.50. A trader bought the April 10, 94.50/91 put ratio spread in the name for $0.15. The trade makes most money at $91, which is approximately 6.5 percent lower from Thursday's close.
