Priced Move

Where the chain says movement becomes exceptional

Size, not direction · through 21 Aug

Options imply 503.53 to 590.53. Max pain at 560.00 sits inside that range, 2.4% above spot.

Spot Max pain
503.53547.03 ± 43.50590.53
Confirmation level

A close beyond 590.53 or below 503.53 at the 21 Aug expiry would exceed the move currently priced by this chain.

Important limitation

The range is a pricing reference, not a forecast; volatility can reprice sharply after news or as expiry approaches.

  • No material coverage gap was detected in the retained chain.

Aggregate chain data supports concentration, participation and pricing analysis. It does not identify trade aggressor, opening versus closing activity, multi-leg intent or dealer inventory.

Options Intent Radar

Put-heavy activity

71/100
Primary intent Put-heavy activity

Put-side activity dominates. This can reflect hedging or directional positioning, but the chain alone cannot distinguish buying from selling.

Flow vs price divergence Bullish flow against weak price

Options are leaning call-side while the stock is down on the week, a divergence that needs price confirmation.

Why this matters

Put-heavy activity matters because it connects the options headline to the actual evidence: $151945 of estimated gross traded notional, puts · 8-21 days · itm, and a bullish flow against weak price backdrop. Use it as a research priority signal, then validate the chart, liquidity, event calendar, and risk before acting.
