In Tuesday’s Blitz Daily with Lance Ippolito, we take a look at online used car retailer Carvana.

Carvana is highly shorted, and it looks like at least one big-money trader could be looking for a short squeeze in the stock, or they’re protecting against a short position.

Less than 30 minutes into the open on Tuesday, this trader dropped about $210,000 worth of premium on the company’s Dec. 9 expiration, $6 strike calls. In fact, Carvana saw FOUR bullish bets on the $6, $6.50 and $7 strikes between 9:40 and 11:10 a.m. ET…

Most of the flow we’re seeing is short term and to the downside on this bearish Tuesday. Volume is low with a lot of controlled selling. Not much to look at for the long term, but a decent environment for day trading.

Carvana isn’t the only stock hitting the tape today, I have more top trades waiting below…

  • Carvana Co. (NYSE: CVNA): Dec. 9, $6, $6.50 and $7 CALL.
  • Canopy Growth Corp. (Nasdaq: CGC): Dec. 16, $4.50 PUT.
  • Amazon.com Inc. (Nasdaq: AMZN): Dec. 9, $91 CALL.
  • Citigroup Inc. (NYSE: C): Dec. 9, $45 PUT.

P.S. The Fed Is at It Again… 

In just a matter of days, the Federal Reserve is doing something that could send shockwaves yet again through the market…

Stocks could soar or plummet in a matter of minutes. 

That’s why Chuck Hughes has been working on an underground project to help traders get in front of the big announcement…

But it’s not another alert service… It’s not a stock report…

It’s something much more powerful — and it can help give you a lifetime of trading opportunities.

That’s why at 1 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Dec. 7, Chuck is holding an emergency briefing with Senior Strategist Roger Scott to lay out the battle plan…

But first, we need your help with something…
