【December 15th US Stock Options Leaderboard】
Market: The three major indices slightly corrected, NASDAQ -0.59%, S&P 500 -0.16%, risk appetite is cautious.
$Tesla(TSLA)$​ Call transaction amount $ 1.73 billion, active net buy $ 3616 million (B:S 3.0:1), while the Put side had a net sell of $ 4217 million; large orders 25/12 350C (BUY $ 4112 million) leaning towards "deep ITM alternatives to holding stocks". Reuters reported that Tesla is testing a safety-free Robotaxi.
👉 Strategy: Bullish trend → Bull Market Call Spread; looking to buy on dips → Sell Put Spread (avoid naked selling).
$Apple(AAPL)$​ Call ratio 96.6%, but active net sell $ 254 million (B:S 0.1:1), more like high-level coverage / rental. With the market weakening, AAPL fell about 1.5% on the day. Developer groups urge the EU to strengthen enforcement of Apple App Store fee rules under DMA.
👉 Strategy: For stockholders Covered Call or Collar to reduce volatility; looking for a mild rebound → Call Calendar / Diagonal Spread.
$Strategy(MSTR)$​ Put transaction amount $ 3.66 billion, accounting for 98%, net buy $ 4352 million; large orders concentrated on 26/01 400P, 25/12 340P (both MID) more like "insuring against BTC volatility".
👉 Strategy: Hedge for holding stocks / going long BTC → Buy Put Spread; for volatility → Calendar Straddle (using time to offset cost), avoid naked straddles.

【December 12th US Stock Options Rankings】
$Meta(META)$ Call transaction amount $ 6.51 billion, accounting for 99.6%, as institutions use options to replace spot trading/restructure positions. The stock price surged to 711 during the day before retreating to 645, with significant volatility. Recently, the market has been more critical of Meta's AI investment returns, while the EU has launched an antitrust investigation into WhatsApp's AI usage, and regulatory discounts remain. Strategy: bullish but do not chase naked Calls, prioritize long-term bull spreads/calendar spreads; use a Collar (sell Call + buy Put) to lock in volatility.
$Merck(MRK)$​ Call transaction amount $ 8913 million (Put:Call = 1:∞), net active purchase $ 1797 million (B:S 4.7:1), with clear capital betting on favorable realization. The company announced that WINREVAIR received positive opinions from CHMP in the EU (for indication expansion), which is considered high-certainty regulatory catalyst for pharmaceutical companies. Strategy: mildly bullish using bull call spreads (to guard against retracement); existing positions can slightly sell OTM Calls for yield enhancement.
$Strategy(MSTR)$​ Put transaction amount $ 1.58 billion (Put accounting for 88.8%), net active purchase $ 1263 million (B:S 7.2:1), a typical "buy protection first". Reuters mentioned that it faces a controversy over its inclusion in the NASDAQ 100 annual adjustment, and if excluded, it may trigger passive fund rebalancing, compounded by BTC volatility, making the stock more event-driven. Strategy: during periods of uncertainty, use Put spreads/hedged straddles for more stability; avoid naked selling of Puts or naked buying of deep OTM.

【December 11th US Stock Options Leaderboard】

$Oracle (ORCL)$​ Put ratio is almost "one-sided": Put accounts for 99.86%, with a net active buy of $888 million, and large orders concentrated on 25/12 260P, 280P, 290P (mostly BUY), resembling post-earnings protection/short squeeze resonance. Fundamentally, the guidance is weak + Capex raised, and the market is concerned about slowing returns on AI investments.
👉 Strategy: Do not bet against V, prioritize Put debit spreads (buy ATM Put, sell more out-of-the-money Put to reduce costs); use a Collar (sell OTM Call + buy Put) to lock in downside.

$Netflix (NFLX)$​ Put ratio is 98.87%, with a net active buy of $23.49 million, more like event-driven hedging. The largest market disagreement surrounds Netflix's proposed acquisition of WBD assets, with concerns about regulation and integration (big deals are most afraid of "prolonged delays + repeated pricing").
👉 Strategy: Lean conservative with bearish Put spreads; if only looking at volatility pullbacks, doing calendar spreads (selling near month, buying far month) is more cost-effective.

$Coinbase Global (COIN)$​ The unusual purchase ratio shows almost all are Put: Net active selling of Put is $116 million, resembling "selling panic, collecting volatility." On that day, BTC fell below $90,000, and crypto stocks retreated simultaneously.
👉 Strategy: Lean bullish but control risk, use bullish Put spreads to collect interest; do not sell Put naked, at least pair with further out OTM Put for disaster protection.

【December 10th, US Stock Options Bull and Bear Rankings】
The Federal Reserve's final interest rate cut of the year has landed, with the Dow Jones soaring nearly 500 points. The S&P is just a few steps away from its historical high, with risk appetite warming up. Options funds are centered around AI semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, Bitcoin assets, and leading consumer stocks.
$Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC)$​ saw bullish trading volume with significant orders dominating: $599 million in Call options, with Calls accounting for nearly 100%, but there was a slight net sell (B:S≈0.7:1). Large orders for 26/01 100C and 25/12 170/190C were mostly in the MID, showing high turnover/coverage rather than all-in. The stock price closed at about $310, with consecutive gains in recent days, November revenue up over 20% year-on-year, and revenue growth of over 30% year-to-date. The AI chain remains strong. Strategy: Bullish in the medium to long term but cautious of short-term bubble bursts; it’s more suitable to use 2026 slightly out-of-the-money bull market Call spreads or gradually sell long-term Puts as “limit orders,” rather than chasing short-term in-the-money Calls.
$Strategy (MSTR)$​ ranked second in bearish trading volume, with Puts accounting for over 94%, continuing a strong hedge against high Beta Bitcoin stocks in recent days. The company has just invested about $960 million to buy over 10,000 BTC, with total holdings exceeding 660,000 coins. Bitcoin itself is also experiencing significant fluctuations around $92,000, but the stock price has still fallen more than 30% this year, showing clear characteristics of high leverage and high volatility. Strategy: This is a standard “BTC leveraged factor stock,” suitable for small positions to do structured options — bullish with 3-6 month bull market Call spreads or wide straddles, and bearish with bear market Put spreads to express views; it is not recommended for retail investors to sell Puts naked or heavily invest in short-term options.
$Tesla (TSLA)$​ ranked third in Call trading volume, with Calls accounting for nearly 80%, net buying of about $11 million (B:S≈7.4:1), indicating that funds are genuinely increasing their positions. The stock price has been fluctuating around $440–460 recently, with one side being strong promotions like 0% interest and 0% down payment to clear inventory, and the other side being Musk continuing to make grand promises about FSD/Robotaxi, pulling expectations against reality. Strategy: Bullish but able to accept volatility; use 2-3 month slightly out-of-the-money bull market Call spreads to replace short-term naked Calls; for those with existing positions, gradually sell Calls at higher strike prices to lock in some profits, hedging against the pressure on profits from aggressive promotions.

【December 8th US Stock Options Leaderboard】
The market slightly corrected at historical highs (S&P down about -0.3%, Nasdaq down about -0.1%), overall risk appetite has slightly decreased, but AI infrastructure, consumer blue chips, and healthcare hedges are all on the list.
$Broadcom (AVGO)$​ ranked first in bullish trading volume, with Calls accounting for over 96%, large orders concentrated on the 26/01 360C active buy, with a buy-sell ratio as high as 70:1, options funds are crowdedly betting on "AI Plumber". The stock price has risen over 100% in a year, closing at about $401, approaching the 52-week high, multiple research reports have included AVGO in the "new seven giants", emphasizing the dual engines of AI switches + custom chips + VMware software, but the valuation is already not low.
👉 Strategy: Maintain a bullish bias but control leverage, prioritize slightly out-of-the-money bull market Call spreads for 2026 or "sell Put buy Call" risk reversal, avoid short-term options gambling.
$Walmart (WMT)$​ ranked 2nd in bullish trading volume, with Calls accounting for 100%, and simultaneously appeared on the unusual Put-Call ratio list (Put:Call = 1:∞), clearly indicating that funds are using Calls for directional or structural trading. The stock price corrected about 1.3% to around $113–114 after a continuous rally, but still rose about 12% in the past month, with an annual gain of about 20%+, regarded by institutions as a "long-term momentum blue chip", with management also promoting high-end city "dark stores" and e-commerce fulfillment models.
👉 Strategy: Long-term bullish investors are more suited to sell slightly out-of-the-money cash-secured Puts for distant months instead of chasing high prices; those with existing positions can write slightly out-of-the-money Calls to collect premiums on rallies.
$Tesla (TSLA)$​ ranked 3rd in bullish trading volume, with Calls accounting for about 53%, active buying B:S ≈ 3.4:1, indicating that there is still a considerable amount of funds buying low during the correction. The stock price fell about 3%–4% to around $440, mainly pressured by Morgan Stanley's downgrade from "overweight" to "hold" for the first time in two years, citing weakening EV demand and overly optimistic AI/FSD expectations, with increased volatility likely in the coming year.
👉 Strategy: Those with spot can sell medium-to-long-term Calls in the 450–480 range for partial protection; those looking to capitalize on the correction can use 2–3 month bull market Call spreads or small position risk reversals, which are more stable than naked long positions in short-term options. #OptionsFlow

【July 8th US Stock Options Leaderboard】

Tesla's total options today is approximately $165 million: Calls $92.8 million (56%), Puts $71.7 million (44%), both sides are experiencing net selling pressure, B:S ≈ 0.9, indicating strong hedging against long positions. Over the past three trading days, the stock price has dropped from $317 to $297, a decline of more than 6%, coinciding with Musk's announcement to create the 'America Party' and Wedbush's call for the board to 'establish rules'.

TSLA's near-term IV ≈ 60%, but based on IV Rank (≈ 25%) and HV (≈ 72%), it is not extremely high. The main players are synchronously selling Calls/Puts, which seems more like locking in profits or rolling positions, rather than simply shorting Vega to press volatility.

Amazon's total call volume today is $84.7 million, accounting for 94%; two near-term 150 Call orders of $35.8 million/$35.3 million are both listed at MID, indicating that the major players are clearly positioning for Prime Day. Adobe Analytics predicts online consumption from July 8-11 to reach $23.8 billion, a year-on-year increase of 28%. If the data comes to fruition, a stock price breakthrough at $230 could trigger a Gamma squeeze; if it falls short of expectations, high IV (≈ 38%) provides a safety net for sellers.

【July 9th US Stock Options Leaderboard】

$NVIDIA (NVDA)$ daily bullish trading reached $175 million, with a net buy of approximately $6 million; 30-day implied volatility at 36.3%, IV Rank at 7.7%. As the market cap first touches $4 trillion, historically low IV suggests there is still room for “Gamma catch-up” in the future.

$Oracle (ORCL)$ Call:Put trading volume reached as high as 815:1, yet there was a net sell of $22.89 million in Calls, a typical “high position selling Calls to collect Theta” hedge. After the stock price hit new highs, the volatility surface continues to rise; if Gamma declines again, a technical cooling window may be approaching.

$Palantir (PLTR)$ September 2025 140 Call single transaction of $65.69 million crowned; after doubling in price this year, it continues to set new highs, with a P/S of about 114× causing valuation discrepancies; on the options side, positions were locked in before a rise, volatility is climbing, and a short-term high volatility sideways pattern may be entering, with diagonal convergence strategies worth paying attention to.

Overall, the enthusiasm for AI remains strong, but the mismatch between valuation and volatility is becoming increasingly apparent. For more details, see the poster, and feel free to share your insights in the comments!

【September 10th U.S. Stock Options Leaderboard】
$Oracle (ORCL)$ announced after Q1 FY26 that RPO surged to $455B, OCI revenue expectations exploded, and CapEx was raised to $35B, causing the stock price to gap up significantly; however, the options market saw large bullish sell-offs and significant DITM October 230C orders, as if taking profits/covering. Strategy: Cautiously chase high, inclined to do short or covered calls at the upper end of bullish spreads.
$NVIDIA (NVDA)$ benefited from Oracle's AI spending and the new Rubin CPX expectations resonating, strengthening in the short term; the leaderboard showed strong bullish trades leading and net buying being dominant. Strategy: Hedge-style bullish spreads or diagonal spreads to follow but control drawdown.
$Lululemon (LULU)$ revised its full-year guidance down again after the earnings report, with tariffs and the cancellation of 'de minimis' compressing gross margins, leading to a significant drop in stock price and continued weakness; put trading volume reached $313 million, with buying dominating (B:S 2.5:1), concentrating on multiple far-month put orders. Strategy: Maintain defense, consider bear put spreads or use selling farther out-of-the-money puts to hedge costs.
$Synopsys (SNPS)$ performance and outlook fell short of expectations, with IP business constrained and fluctuations in Chinese demand, causing the stock price to plunge significantly in one day; the leaderboard showed significant put buying. Strategy: If expecting continuation, use put spreads for downside; if betting on a rebound, use put credit spreads to narrow volatility.

【September 19th US Stock Options Hot List】
$Google C(GOOG)$​ Unusual Call buying dominates (B:S≈8:1), combined with avoiding the search business split at the beginning of the month, and recently integrating Gemini into Chrome, bullish sentiment is rising. Strategy: Replace single Call purchases with a bull call spread to improve win rate/profit-loss ratio.
$Strategy(MSTR)$ Call has a high proportion but net activity is selling, more like selling Calls at a high position/rolling hedges; its β closely follows BTC. The company purchased approximately $217 million worth of Bitcoin earlier this month. Strategy: Don't chase highs, lean towards bear call spreads (Call Credit Spread); if optimistic about BTC in the medium term, consider selling a small amount of out-of-the-money puts to capture pullback support.
$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ Call trading volume is high but net activity leans toward selling; fundamentals are boosted by "NVDA investing in INTC, collaborating on products/supply," leading to a two-day stock price rebound. Strategy: Follow the trend with a bull call spread or sell out-of-the-money puts; if concerned about news realization leading to a drop, switch to calendar call spreads to reduce costs.

【July 30th US Stock Options Leaderboard】

The new AI star $CoreWeave(CRWV)$ topped the list with a call trading volume of $98.6 million, but was dominated by selling (B:S 0.8), resulting in a net outflow of $2.94 million, indicating a continuation of fund reduction and heavy selling pressure. The stock has retraced 45% from its June peak.

The big brother $Nvidia(NVDA)$ recorded a call volume of $64.5 million, with slightly more buying pressure (B:S 1.1), and was upgraded by Morgan Stanley with a target price raised to $200.

The sentiment divergence between the leader and the newcomer may indicate a rotation period for the AI theme: a short-term bearish call spread can be used to hedge CRWV; NVDA can still be entered on dips with a light OTM call for September.

For more details, see the poster and let's analyze the trades together. #OptionsFlow

【September 15th US Stock Options Leaderboard】
The market continued to rise ahead of the Federal Reserve's interest rate meeting, with the Nasdaq and S&P hitting historical highs again; on the market, Tesla and Google led the gains, while Nvidia fluctuated and closed flat due to news of an antitrust investigation in China.
$TSMC (TSM) $ Call transaction amount $516 million, net purchase about $9.84 million, Put:Call≈1:∞; large orders concentrated in deeply ITM 9 September 175/170/200C. On the fundamentals, TSMC reported August revenue up +33.8% year-on-year, a cumulative increase of +37.1% for the first eight months, with no decrease in AI chain order momentum. Strategy: Favor „bullish call spreads” (30–45DTE, e.g.: 260/300C), or sell 230–240P for pullback support.
$Tesla (TSLA) $ Call transaction amount $202 million, accounting for about 79%, stimulated by Musk's nearly $1 billion increase in holdings, the market also bets on strong Q3 deliveries.

【August 29th US Stock Options Leaderboard】
$Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) $ Call has the highest trading volume, with buying pressure and a large BUY seen for November 220C. Strategy: Follow the trend with a bullish call spread (October 200/220C or November 220/240C following large orders).
$NVIDIA (NVDA) $ is active on both sides, with clear buying pressure on the Call side, and a large BUY seen for November 180C. Strategy: Lightly bullish using a bullish call spread (September 180/190C or October 185/200C).
$Tesla (TSLA) $ has the highest amount on the Put side but B:S≈0.9 (slightly selling Put), overall neutral to slightly bullish. Strategy: Create a bullish put spread (credit) (sell 320P / buy 300P mid-September) to collect premiums.
#OptionsFlow

【October 2nd US Stock Options Leaderboard】
$Tesla (TSLA)$​ Both sides are "writing premiums" (Call and Put are both dominated by sellers), betting on the volatility convergence after the delivery; the company delivered 497,000 vehicles in Q3, exceeding expectations. Strategy: Use iron condor/covered Call to control drawdown after the event; bullish traders can replace naked longs with bullish Put spreads.
$Coinbase Global (COIN)$​ Almost entirely buyers, closely following the sentiment surge as BTC rises to ~$121,000. Strategy: Trade near-month bullish Call spreads in line with the trend; conservative traders can use cash-secured sold Puts to take advantage of pullbacks.
$Moderna (MRNA)$​ Unusual movement "only buying Puts", with a large order of 165P; the company disclosed that the new season vaccines and next-generation candidates show strong immune responses. Strategy: Holders use protective Puts; bearish traders can use bearish Put spreads to control risk. #OptionsFlow

【August 11th US Stock Options Ranking】
$NVIDIA (NVDA) $ leads the Call transaction list, with the stock price still consolidating at historical highs. For those who follow the trend, consider a 175/190 Bull Call spread to capitalize on the trend with a small premium; conservative investors can write a +5% OTM Call on the underlying stock to capture Theta and manage drawdowns.
$Wynn Resorts (WYNN) $ ranks second in Call transaction volume, combined with large inflows of September/December Calls, short-term strategies can include a 100/110 Bull Call spread, or directly selling the 95P to capture rental income in anticipation of a recovery.
$Accenture (ACN) $ , although the Put transaction volume ranks second, shows a net sell of $98.67 million, indicating a bullish sentiment. Strategically, one could use a 220/200 Bull Put spread to accumulate positions, or a 240C calendar spread to bet on a technical rebound.

【September 18th US Stock Options Leaderboard】

【September 8th US Stock Options Leaderboard】
📌 $Coinbase Global(COIN)$​ has the highest bullish trading volume, with significant buying pressure. Coupled with Bitcoin stabilization and expectations for the expansion of Coinbase's derivatives business, market sentiment is bullish.
Strategy: Position a bullish call spread out of the money by 10-15% for September-October, or sell a cash-secured put with Δ≈20 to capture potential pullbacks.
📌 $Lululemon(LULU)$​ sees a surge in put transactions, dominated by sellers, stemming from a "panic sell-off" after lowering the full-year performance guidance.
Strategy: Conservatives may establish a bearish put spread for hedging; aggressive traders might consider small positions selling far out-of-the-money put credit spreads while strictly controlling risk.
📌 $Palantir(PLTR)$​ has over 90% of its options being calls, but the active direction is neutral. The stock price is fluctuating at high levels with no new catalysts in sight.
Strategy: Prioritize short wide iron condors to capitalize on the range; if bullish, consider using a bullish calendar spread instead of outright buying to manage volatility risk.
📌 $Tesla(TSLA)$​ sees active put transactions, but net buying pressure is weak. The focus remains on the divergences caused by the "trillion-dollar compensation plan."
Strategy: A neutral-to-bullish approach could use iron condor/iron butterfly to converge volatility; if a breakout above resistance occurs, consider using a bullish call spread instead of outright long positions.
📌 $Meta(META)$​ shows net buying in call transactions, with fundamentals disrupted by VR and youth safety issues, existing with both short-term noise and long-term growth logic.
Strategy: Holders may use protective collars to reduce risk; those betting on a rebound may try a bullish call spread. #OptionsFlow
