Notes
The $HTZ flow spotted on @unusual_whales last week turned into a monster move this week. 🐳
Contracts that originally went off around $0.62 ripped to a high of $1.25 today — a 101.6% max return. Even more contracts piled in yesterday (9/18), showing continued bullish interest.
$HTZ stepping on the gas fast. Contracts moving up 20% already. Running from .62 to a high of .75 already.
Perfect timing by this whale found on @unusual_whales 🐳
Bill Ackman disclosed buying 12.7 million shares of $HTZ, Hertz this week.
Did someone follow the elevated stock volume with options? Yes.
$HTZ gets very little options volume.
However on April 11th someone decided to get directional calls, at the $4.5 and $6 calls for 30 days (the closest expiry).
These calls were bought at the ask, all at once. This was MOST of the volume, and these traders held their positions as $HTZ fell.
I don't know if anyone knew of the $HTZ Hertz buy, but the unusual activity shows conviction in the trader. Those traders have turned approximately $200k into over $3 million, as per our options profit calculator.
Unusual moves like this have seemingly been happening more and more frequently in the market.
I will keep calling them out.
Well what do we have here👀…
I was doing some more digging into this past week’s explosive $HTZ trade and it appears someone actually started building out large synthetic long positions starting in early March🍀
