Made a nice little profit today on this one. Did a super bull. Which is, sell a put option and buy a call spread. Worked out perfectly.
Probably won't take a position, but was looking through some stocks that I've watched at any point in the past for any reason at all and came across this one. Actually looking like a decent bounce spot, or a gap down.
