$Micron Technology(MU)$ The put side is so thin on the far left that max pain is actually higher than what the chart shows. Under 950 would wipe out the biggest chunk of option buyers, since the call concentration sits right around where the graph turns green. Curious to see if MU can shrug off oil and bonds both climbing and push into a full call distribution above $900.
$Micron Technology(MU)$ Three straight green trading days point to potential continuation, especially with $SanDisk Corp.(SNDK)$ earnings coming up Thursday. MU still has plenty of room to keep moving higher if price wants it.
$Micron Technology(MU)$ Up about 4% today after BofA reiterated their Buy rating. Short-dated call buyers are jumping in, but it feels more like a tactical play than a full trend shift. I'm seeing aggressive call sweeps in the 960 to 990 and 1200 to 1220 strikes, with a notable 2,300x Oct 28 $970C vs 338 OI on InsiderFinance. Momentum is strong, but those downside hedges are worth watching. Half of the $192M in options premium recently has gone into puts, mainly around the $850 to $900 strikes, so big players are still hedging. For anyone looking at longs, spreads or defined-risk setups seem like the more reasonable route. That Taoyuan union issue could keep things interesting.
