Join Russell Rhoads as he discusses research conducted on the performance of large option trades. The largest directional equity option trade from each trading day in 2022 and 2023 was tracked to gain insight into speculative trades initiated by large institutions. Findings include profit and loss, type of trade, whether the trade was held to expiration, and of course the percentage of winners versus losers.
