These One Day Pinch Plays are Great for Options. GDX shot up from $24.29 to $24.52 and was still cranking at the close. I saw the $24.50 Calls go from Zero to .04 cents right at the close, too bad there wasn't another 1/2 hour left as it probably would have gone right past $25.00 or much higher. NUGT also shot up and I am sure a few more.
