As of April 11, 2026, 4:19 p.m. EDT: The options data indicates mixed signals. The calls show a concentration of open interest (OI) and volume around strikes near the current price (e.g., 930, 950, and 1000), suggesting some bullish sentiment. However, there are also significant OI walls at much lower strikes (e.g., 530, 600, and 700), which may indicate bearish positioning or speculative activity. Puts show substantial OI and volume at lower strikes (e.g., 510, 520, and 700), suggesting potential downside protection or bearish sentiment. The overall market volatility is moderate, with IV around 50-55%, indicating uncertainty about the stock's direction. Traders should be cautious and consider both bullish and bearish scenarios.
