Perhaps shorts are buying calls to hedge their positions. Good luck. Jon

Stock price doesn't move when everyone is buying call options. Buy the stock and watch it go up. MM going to take all your money buying those calls

I wouldn't read too much into the call volume. It could very well be that it's just people long the stock are selling covered calls. THQI has a pretty high volatility premium and there is a certain faction of 'investors' that think selling covered calls on high premium stocks is a good investment. You can probably see THQI on the lists at sites like coveredcalls.com Note there are a lot of what I consider dogs (like WAVO & ENMD, not THQI) on that list also.
