Is it possible to ovulate around cd7???

Last month I got my peak on CD16, this month I had a 5 day period and tested this evening at CD7 and got this, is it possible to ovulate this early in the cycle? We BD earlier today which would be a massive coincidence but just wanted to see if it’s possible?! Thank you!
