As of April 11, 2026, 4:25 p.m. EDT: Options speculators are showing mixed signals. The calls show some support for higher prices, particularly with the ATM anchor at 60.0 and top OI at 55.0. However, puts indicate a bearish sentiment with significant OI at lower strikes, suggesting potential downside risks. The high IV on puts, especially for the May 15 expiration, indicates increased uncertainty or fear among investors. Overall, the options data suggests a cautious approach with potential for both upward and downward movements.
