Put/call volume ratio: 0.56; put/call OI ratio: 0.70. Calls traded 861,703 contracts versus 479,843 puts.

The nearest ATM straddle around $205.00 prices an approximate ±$1.03 move, or 0.5% of spot, through expiry.

Near-OTM IV skew proxy: puts above calls by 6.2 volatility points.

Anomaly screen: put $205.00: 172,006 volume, 36.5x vol/OI; call $207.50: 322,996 volume, 30.2x vol/OI; put $202.50: 192,314 volume, 29.3x vol/OI.

Read-through: call volume is materially heavier than put volume; near-OTM puts carry a notable IV premium to calls; the anomaly screen surfaced notable volume/OI outliers. This describes positioning, not trade direction.
