finance.yahoo.com Someone posted that weirdo story which contradicts everything I know about options, so I decided to check out options volume. Looking at spy call volume, that IS weird. Exactly 10K volume for every strike between 60 and 95, and these calls are not exactly what I call cheap. Either this is a computer glitch (wrong quote), or what? Why exactly 10K volume for every call strike? The probability of hitting 10K exactly for every strike by chance is zero. Surely, that is NOT a bearish or crash bet, but the other way around - SPY support bet, unless the calls were actually shorted. -g- Just for 60 strike, 10K in SPY calls is $86.5 Million. Overall, this adds up to a lot.
