Flow Summary

Net premium: +$3.3M bullish

P/C volume ratio: 1.05

P/C OI ratio: 0.84

CVNA options flow net positive ($3.3M) but put volume elevated (PCR 1.05). Gamma pinning at $60 and spot above MP suggests range-bound action. Unusual call accumulation at $85 and $71 strikes, but $66.5 put also active. High vol regime favors cautious positioning. Mixed signals keep near-term direction unresolved.

How to Use These Reports
This flow reflects the market close on June 24, 2026.
What the reports do

Each report translates the same market-close options snapshot into a specific lens such as directional bias, premium-selling posture, flow quality, or earnings setup.

How traders use them

Reports are most useful for narrowing the playbook, surfacing entry and risk context, and deciding which raw data page to inspect next.

What to remember

These are interpretation layers, not execution guarantees. Validate the setup against chain liquidity, expected move, and exposure before sizing risk.

If the report conviction and the raw data disagree, slow down and resolve the mismatch before sizing risk.
