How to read these prints

A print is unusual when its size dwarfs the contract's normal volume or exceeds its open interest. Blocks are single prints of 1,000 contracts or more; sweeps are one order filled across several exchanges, which signals urgency; a golden sweep is a sweep over $1 million in premium. The classification rules are the same in the app and in the background worker, pinned against each other by tests, and only prints from the session shown here count.

Size tells you someone wanted exposure fast. It does not tell you why. Check whether volume exceeds open interest (opening, not closing), whether the print hit the ask (bought) or the bid (sold), and what the dealer gamma profile looks like around the strike. The glossary entry walks through each check; the app's live tape labels each print as directional, hedge or noise and hands it to the advisor.

Not advice. Prints are public trade data; the read is yours.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as unusual options activity in META?
A print whose size is far above the contract's normal volume or above its open interest: a block of 1,000 contracts or more in one print, or a sweep filled across several exchanges. A golden sweep is a sweep over $1 million in premium. Only prints from the current session count on this page.
Is unusual options activity bullish?
Only when calls are bought or puts are sold with conviction. Large put buying is often a hedge on a stock position, and a call sweep can be one leg of a spread. Check volume against open interest, bid versus ask, and the dealer gamma profile around the strike before reading direction.
How fresh is this META data?
Prints come from the Massive.com options feed, polled every 30 seconds in the app during market hours. This page is rebuilt about every 30 minutes and shows the most recent session that has prints for META, dated in Eastern Time.
