Shares of Adobe Systems fell sharply in trading Wednesday after the technology company posted weaker-than-expected revenue outlook for its fiscal fourth quarter.

While many investors stepped in to buy the stock for value, its options are also discounted, noted Mike Khouw of Cantor Fitzgerald. For Wednesday's "Options Action," Khouw explains how to use options and limit risk, if making a bullish bet on ADBE.
