As of April 11, 2026, 3:59 p.m. EDT: Options activity suggests a mixed sentiment. For calls, there is a notable increase in OTM positioning with higher volatility and open interest, especially around the 115.0 strike, indicating potential bullish speculation. However, ATM calls are relatively low, which could indicate uncertainty about immediate price direction. For puts, there's a concentration of OTM and ITM positions, particularly around the 125.0 strike, suggesting some bearish sentiment or hedging against potential downside. The overall volatility and open interest patterns indicate a cautious outlook with potential for short-term price movements.
