Understanding Unusual Options Activity (UOA)
What is UOA?
Unusual options activity highlights trades that stand out for their size, urgency, or aggressiveness — often signaling strong conviction or informational edge.
How to interpret the table
- High V/OI: Volume dwarfing open interest suggests fresh positioning.
- Large premium: Big dollar commitment implies institutional participation.
- Short DTE: Near-term expiries flag urgency around catalysts.
- Aggressive prints: Executed at/above ask hints buyers were chasing fills.
Practical applications
- Generate idea flow for follow-up research.
- Spot sentiment shifts before they show up in price.
- Pair with chart/vol work to confirm or fade the flow.
