Put volume picked up in the further out months esp. Jan. This
looks a bit like hedging to me, given the premiums picked up
also, and we had an up day. There's a lot of call activity
in Sept. Is it selling or buying premium? Difficult to say.
I didn't take the long trade today, just too busy to follow
the market. Tomorrow, I'd look to range trade, ie, fade the
early strength, if it moves down near the open, buy, or vice
versa.
