Any idea why someone bought 1000 contracts CALL SEP 60 for PCLN this morning.

A couple of possibilities:

1) They're very bullish on PCLN in the very short term, or

2) They're short 100,000 shares and by exercising these option they can cover all at once without driving the price up and involving them in a squeeze.
