<<I THINK THQI put action was a buy, since the open interest on the CBOE site is much higher than it was a day ago. >>
My understanding is that the number of volume means the # of transaction, which includes both buy and sale. So unless you know the premium for sure, you have no way to tell it is a buy or sale. This is the same as the stock, unless you know it is bid or ask, you cannot tell it is a buy or sell.
