Just scrolling through today's most active call options and noticed some pretty heavy volume in a few names worth mentioning. APP had a bunch of action - like 35k contracts moved, which is almost half their daily average. The $450 call that expired back in February was where most people were trading, over 2600 contracts just in that one strike. Pretty wild volume for a single expiration. BBWI was right there too with similar intensity - 20k contracts trading, also hitting around 44% of their usual daily volume. Their $20 calls from that same February expiration got crushed with activity, 8600 contracts. You're seeing the same pattern across the board today. Then ACN jumped in with 24k contracts, and again it's the most active call options today concentrated in that $250 put strike from a couple months back. About 7200 contracts on that one alone. Honestly seeing this kind of concentrated volume on old expirations is always interesting - makes you wonder what's driving people to those specific strikes. When you see most active call options today this concentrated in expired or near-expired contracts, there's usually some story there.
