ynot, here's link to the CBOE (chicago board options exchange). The Call activity is on the left side. In my opinion, the volume of activity is important but not as important as the volume as it relates to "normal" call volume for CS. The activity in the last couple of weeks can be described as "bullish" at some times and "frantic" at others. Pay attention to the SEPT $20s and the OCT $17 1/2 and the OCT $20s.....that's where the action should be. If we do over 1,000 contracts in a day on any one of these it's a very bullish sign. If we do over 2,000 contracts in a day on any one of these, then that's just plain "nuts" and someone knows something. Be sure to combine all exchanges (A = amex; X = philadelphia). I will post if I see anything unusual; after I pick up a few more of course :-) quote.cboe.com
