- 0:04all right everybody in this flow review
- 0:06we're going to cover some well-timed
- 0:07options flow that hit the tape during
- 0:10the market-wide pullback earlier this
- 0:12week we'll also take a quick look at a
- 0:15longer hold trade that was tracked by
- 0:18Snorlax from the unusual whales team I'm
- 0:22going to navigate to my contract lookup
- 0:25page and here we can see the two trades
- 0:27we'll be looking at today the hood $48
- 0:31call expiring on February 21st and then
- 0:34we'll also look at the hood $40 call
- 0:37expiring in May of this year now
- 0:40starting us off here the hood $48 call
- 0:42expiring on February 21st we're going to
- 0:45go back in time by just one day here to
- 0:48see the initial fill that we'll be
- 0:50talking about right here at 137 p.m.
- 0:54central Time on Tuesday January 14th pop
- 0:58that bad boy open and here we are where
- 1:00we first saw these fills coming in all
- 1:04at the same time stamp right here at
- 1:06that 137 p.m. central with a bid ask
- 1:08spread of 258 to 260 we see all of these
- 1:13bills happening right at the ask price
- 1:16so that gives us the inclination but
- 1:19again not the guarantee that these
- 1:21contracts were bought Additionally the
- 1:23total volume definitely supersedes the
- 1:27open interest of under 1,500 contracts
- 1:30now since there is that 1469 open
- 1:34interest it's possible some of these
- 1:35transactions were closed but based on
- 1:38how these orders filled all at the same
- 1:42timestamp all at the same price and the
- 1:46total volume superseding that open
- 1:50interest signs point to this being a new
- 1:53bought to open position now at the time
- 1:56of these fills Hood was trading at $43
- 2:0026 per share placing these contracts 11%
- 2:03out of the money throughout the
- 2:05remainder of the afternoon this Trader
- 2:07experienced a bit of draw down on the
- 2:09position as the market continued to pull
- 2:11back into close on the 14th now on the
- 2:14unusual whales charting tool we can see
- 2:16exactly that right up here is where a
- 2:19Trader entered those contracts at
- 2:22$432 per share and way down here a buck
- 2:2760 lower was the low of day on the
- 2:3214th so naturally this contract took a
- 2:35bit of a tumble along with it so going
- 2:37in close on the 14th this contract had
- 2:40dropped
- 2:4127% to a buck 89 per contract now back
- 2:45to our chart here we can see that the
- 2:47overnight hold was great for this Trader
- 2:51before I even scroll up this massive Gap
- 2:54right here reflects the movement that
- 2:56hood experienced going into the 15th so
- 3:00scrolling on up here yes sir Hood gave a
- 3:04nice Ripper to the upside at the time of
- 3:06recording the high of day was
- 3:094623 per share so these contracts that
- 3:12were once 11% out of the money are now
- 3:15less than
- 3:164% out of the money now naturally that
- 3:20gave us a big old boost in the value of
- 3:23this contract so back here to the
- 3:26contract summary we can see that these
- 3:29contracts on the 15th reached a high of
- 3:33380 per contract from their entry of
- 3:37that 260 per contract this profitability
- 3:40put them at about
- 3:4346% gain the
- 3:46$210,600
- 3:47not too shabby for just an overnight
- 3:50hold now on this contract today bring
- 3:53this back to one day view we can see a
- 3:55transaction of about 350 contracts these
- 3:59filled at the mid that's why this is
- 4:01blue here and then followed by that we
- 4:03had a similarly sized ask side
- 4:06transaction now hypothetically this
- 4:08volume could be part of this open
- 4:10interest we won't know for sure until
- 4:12tomorrow when we get to see that open
- 4:14interest update but as it stands it
- 4:17seems kind of likely that most or all of
- 4:20this position is still open now that
- 4:22210k Gainer is pretty good for an
- 4:25overnight trade but we're not done here
- 4:27folks like I said we have one more
- 4:30contract to look at the hood $40 call
- 4:33expiring on May 16th now as I mentioned
- 4:36Snorlax from the unusual Wales team has
- 4:38been tracking this contract for about a
- 4:40month but we can see that we had some
- 4:43substantial action back in November
- 4:46before the large orders that we saw on
- 4:50December 20th for this $40 call so we're
- 4:53first going to go take a trip down
- 4:54memory lane and look at this transaction
- 4:57from November 26th
- 5:00now here we can see once again bills at
- 5:04the ask price within that bid ask spread
- 5:08across several orders totaling up to
- 5:10over 4,000 volume on the day compared to
- 5:14only 2,97 open interest we can be fairly
- 5:18certain that some of these are new
- 5:21positions it's not guaranteed that all
- 5:23of them are but the tape is hinting at
- 5:26us that this is indeed a new position
- 5:29that was spot to open looking at the
- 5:32contract summary for way back on the
- 5:3726th we can see that 4,200 contracts
- 5:40transacted that day with 3500 is
- 5:44carrying over into open interest so
- 5:45we're going to use that 3500 for the
- 5:47sake of Simplicity here now we can see
- 5:50in this historical flow that the
- 5:52contract was largely quiet across the
- 5:55volume Spectrum bids side transactions
- 5:57here some asside transactions there
- 6:00nothing really happened though until
- 6:03December 20th here we had
- 6:068700 contracts
- 6:08transact largely at the ask and 8,400 of
- 6:13that carried over into open interest
- 6:15what we're going to be looking at here
- 6:17on this December 20th bar is the initial
- 6:206700 contracts that transacted here at
- 6:23670 per contract from that point the
- 6:27contract didn't really experience
- 6:29against any draw down it looks like it
- 6:31hit its final low on December 31st where
- 6:35it hit a low of 538 per contract but
- 6:38that wasn't really that big of a deal
- 6:39for this Trader because we can see from
- 6:41that point onward we see nothing but
- 6:44upward price movement in the contract's
- 6:46value now today on the 15th Hood caught
- 6:50some serious bids we see an over 10%
- 6:54gain off the market open to hit that
- 6:57high of 4623 three per share as I
- 7:01mentioned with the $48 call we already
- 7:03looked at the value of this $40 call
- 7:08rocketed once again so let's head on
- 7:10back to our contract lookup and take a
- 7:12look at the results here this upside
- 7:15move put this $40 call over 15% in the
- 7:20money now naturally the contract value
- 7:22reflected that Ripper reaching a new
- 7:24high of
- 7:26$10.70 per contract now if you recall
- 7:29that initial fill back in November came
- 7:32in at an average of 552 per contract
- 7:35taking that up to today's high of 1070
- 7:39per contract this Trader is looking at a
- 7:4494% gain putting into perspective from
- 7:48their entry that means this first entry
- 7:51from November hit a Max profit of
- 7:55$1,813
- 7:57th000 now if we look back to our
- 7:59December 20th fills basing again on that
- 8:02initial 6700 contracts we saw these
- 8:06transacted at an average of 664 per
- 8:09contract which right again back to our
- 8:12high of 1070 that places this leg of the
- 8:16trade up
- 8:1761% which for the December 20th position
- 8:21that's a Max profit of $2.7
- 8:24million now there's no way to know for
- 8:27sure whether or not these two
- 8:28transaction s are the same Trader but if
- 8:33they are at the time of recording this
- 8:36video this Trader was up an astounding
- 8:38profit of over
- 8:40$4.5
- 8:42million and if we come on down back here
- 8:44to the historical volume open interest
- 8:46profile we can see that today on the
- 8:4815th no transactions have occurred
- 8:51whatsoever compared to that nearly
- 8:5315,000 contract open interest that means
- 8:57that this position on the $40 call is
- 9:00still
- 9:03open I hope this video kind of helps you
- 9:05guys figure out how we track flow from
- 9:08that point of entry along with
- 9:11positional ads and noticing that we're
- 9:13not seeing any exits in the volume
- 9:16relative to the open interest we'll be
- 9:18back next week with another flow review
