”I’m seeing strong call volume in the Frontline options,” says Pete Najarian adding to Kelly's bullish case. Najarian sees options investors are making upside bets using the 27.5, 29 and 30 calls in Frontline.
Meanwhile Jared Levy, Chief Derivatives Strategist at TPG, has Apache on his radar. The stock is taking a hit because they own fields in Egypt, “but their oil fields are about 400 miles away from the Nile delta,” he says. “They have little chance of being affected. It’s a higher risk trade but I think Apache is a stock to buy here,” he says.

VODAFONE IN EGYPT
Meanwhile, the Egyptian government ordered all mobile telephone operators to suspend services "in selected areas" of the country, Vodafone said Friday.
In a statement, the company said "under Egyptian legislation, the authorities have the right to issue such an order and we are obliged to comply with it."
Britain-based Vodafone Group is one of the largest mobile phone operator in Egypt, with more than 25 million subscribers.
What’s the trade?
Pete Najarian suggests keeping the stock on the radar. Although it’s down, “I don’t know if it’s fallen enough to be attractive,” he says, “but I’d keep my eye on it.”

EGYPT TRIGGERS FLIGHT TO SAFETY
Looking at the markets broadly, both the Dow and S&P fell as events in Egypt sent investors running for the exits.
"It is too soon to say what the outcome of this is going to be," says Joe Battipaglia, market strategist at Stifel Nicolaus in a Reuters interview. "A breakdown in internal control in Egypt will be debilitating for North Africa, will have negative impact on energy prices, and that could be a challenge to the economy in 2011."
What should you be watching?
Pete Najarian suggests keeping an eye on the Vix . “It spiked above the 50-day, 100-day and now the level to watch is the 200-day at 23,” he says.
Steve Grasso is watching technical levels in the S&P. “If we close below 1283 – that will make for 2 losing weeks in a row,” he says. “That’s bearish."
