TRUE SENTIMENT ANALYSIS (DELTA 40-60 OPTIONS)
True Sentiment Analysis—Delta 40–60 Options:Overall sentiment is Bearish.
Call dollar volume: $2,235.00 (19.20%)
Put dollar volume: $9,380.00 (80.80%)
Total directional dollar volume: $11,615.00
- The flow includes 4 call contracts and 9 put contracts.
- There were 3 call trades and 3 put trades.
- Put dollar volume exceeds call dollar volume by $7,145.00.
- Only 6 of 1,068 contracts met the Delta 40–60 directional filter, equal to a 0.60% filter ratio.
The put-to-call dollar-volume ratio is approximately 4.20:1, indicating substantially greater bearish directional conviction. With equal numbers of call and put trades, the imbalance appears driven more by the size or dollar value of the put transactions than by an unusually large number of bearish trades.
The options positioning aligns with the negative moving-average structure, bearish MACD, and location near the lower Bollinger Band and 30-day low. There is no meaningful technical-versus-sentiment divergence. The main caveat is the limited sample: only 6 directional contracts were analyzed, and the sample represents just 0.60% of the total contracts reviewed.
