New Call Trade in Ford

KDK Options purchased a September $13.75 call option. The price before commissions and fees was $0.48. The expectation is that the trade will end at $1.25. There has been a stop loss price figured out. Reasons for the trade are below:

- Ford releases earnings tomorrow. With a good report, the $14.00 resistance should be breached and $15.00 should be quickly reached.

- GM released good earnings and saw a 5% bump in their stock price. A similar move in Ford would take the stock up to $14.60 immediately, putting the option in the money by $0.90.
 
- The 15 day has moved above the 200 day for the first time in over a year
