  3. 03Largest prints

A print is not a position or proof of intent.

Read the output

  1. 01The largest single prints by premium across single-name options.
  2. 02Strike, expiry and days to expiry for each ticket.
  3. 03The feed’s sentiment classification per print.

Keep in mind

One row is one print, not a position — a spread appears as separate tickets.

How to read it

From report to evidence

  1. 01

    Read size with expiry

    Long-dated neutral size is often institutional structure; short-dated directional size is tactical.

  2. 02

    Check the name’s context

    Ticker Options Snapshot shows whether one ticket dominated the name or joined a crowd.

  3. 03

    Wait for open interest

    Pre-Move Positioning shows whether the print persisted into the next session’s open interest.

Method and limitations

A one-screen Cookbook tool: the session’s largest single option tickets, ranked by the premium that changed hands. Official app template: Biggest Options Trades.

What the report computes

  • The largest single prints by premium across single-name options.
  • Strike, expiry and days to expiry for each ticket.
  • The feed’s sentiment classification per print.

What it does not claim

  • One row is one print, not a position — a spread appears as separate tickets.
  • Sentiment establishes neither intent nor ownership.
  • Large size is not conviction; it can be a hedge, a roll, or a close.

Shows days to expiry beside premium, which is what separates long-dated institutional structure from same-week directional size.

Frequently asked questions

Do big option trades predict the stock?
No. A large ticket can be a hedge against stock, one leg of a spread, or a position being closed. The tape does not record why it was traded.
Why is a huge call trade tagged neutral?
Sentiment reads option type together with where the trade executed against the quote. Size traded between the bid and ask, or as part of combo activity, classifies as neutral.
