Just checked; Yhoo has more than 6K 195 to 210 call contracts traded this morning. that's a 600,000-shares of call pressure. There is hardly any put's contract for the corresponding strikes. So the call buyers are --

1. Short-covering
2. Thinking a double by tomorrow or Wednesday. If this is the case, then they need Yhoo $215/$220 for the double.

So, imo, pending to buy 5 or 10 Yhoo-Nov-$200/$205 put contracts for $2 should be a low stress and low key short-term play.

ps. I just got 3 Yhoo-Nov-195 puts at $2. I was pending for 6 but only 3 was filled.
