FWIW - Ultimately, I don't see AMZN crashing anytime soon. It may have one possibly two more down days. Euphoric shorts seeing dollar signs will again be sucked into AMZN only to find that this internet giant was taking a short nap before it resumes rocket status. This time next week it'll be 100+

Jason, Glenn, and others: Here is the following Options information(numbers) for Amzn: Jul 30 OI Closing Price Vol Jun 4 -0- -0- -0- Jun 19 2,338 n/a -0- (This suggests that all Jul 30 calls were purchased after Jun 4 and before 19) Jun 28 526 $67 to $73 1,317 (I am not sure if the current 526 OI is before/after the Friday Vol. of 1,317?? In any event, an Avg of $70 @ 2,338 contracts represents $16 MM profit!! and it's been taking off the table.) **************** Jul 32.5 OI Closing Price Vol. Jun 4 -0- N/A -0- Jun 19 512 N/A -0- Jun 28 425 $67 330 Jun 4 -0- N/A -0- Jun 19 1,031 N/A -0- Jun 28 919 $64 1,000 My comments: a. I am an amateur, but the obove number are factual. So please comment/analyze the above if you are not an amateur. b. Why were those round number call options purchased during the short window period?? and why were they been closed on Friday ?? In large round number such as 1,000 contracts??** C. Who purchased those calls between 6/4 and 6/19 ?? (I do not have info for days in between. I have print-outs for those 2 dates only) The strike prices were Jul 30, 32 1/2, 35,... obviously for a specific reason?
