Put/call volume ratio: 0.72; put/call OI ratio: 1.09. Calls traded 39,454 contracts versus 28,430 puts.

The nearest ATM straddle around $495.00 prices an approximate ±$22.27 move, or 4.5% of spot, through expiry.

Near-OTM IV skew proxy: puts above calls by 7.5 volatility points.

Anomaly screen: call $502.50: 1,235 volume, 19.0x vol/OI; call $495.00: 1,115 volume, 18.3x vol/OI; call $520.00: 6,332 volume, 17.9x vol/OI.
