Dan Nathan spoke on CNBC's "Options Action" about unusually high options activity in Wynn Resorts, Limited WYNN.
When the stock was trading at $133, Nathan noticed that a trader bought the July 130 put and sold two July 120 puts for a total cost of $1.30. The trade breaks even at $128.70 or 3.44 percent below the current stock price. It can make a maximal profit of $8.70, if the stock drops to $120 at the July expiration. If Wynn Resorts closes below $120 at the July expiration, the trader is going to have to buy the stock at $120, but with the profit on the put spread, his entry price would be $111.30, which is 16.50 percent below the current stock price.
