JAG is trading 11.52. Note the shorter term HV measures. The company has traded over 4,600 options today in the first 3 hours on total daily average option volume of 3605. Further, the callut ratio is exactly 1 : 1. The Company Tab snapshot is below (click the image to enlarge). The biggest trade(s) of the day are in Sep. The Sep 12.5 straddle was sold 1000 times @ 1.60 + 2.24 = 3.84. Another 1000 Sep 12.5 puts were sold 1000 times (possibly with stock to turn them into 500 straddles - but I'm not sure). The day's biggest trades and Options Tab snapshots are included below (click either image to enlarge). Note zero open interest in the Sep 12.5 line - these are entirely opening orders. This is a vol bet - namely that the ~50 vol that was sold is better than the future underlying volatility. The Charts Tab snapshot below (click to enlarge) illustrates some interesting results. Note the IV30™ (red line) is well above the HV30™ (light blue line) and both are well below 50 (the vol sale). The HV60™ (dark blue line) is 50 (on the nose). This is a bet that the underlying moves more like HV10™/HV20™/HV30™ and therefore makes a 50 vol sale a winner. If this was done without stock, it is slightly bullish - as the short straddle wins max when stock goes to the strike exactly. If this is in fact a ratio straddle, then it is slightly more bullish (sold more puts than calls).
