Massive Jun-06-25 140 Call Activity: 58,736 Contracts Traded as NVDA Climbs 2.76%
Nvidia (NVDA) has captured the spotlight yet again, not just for its stock performance but for its options market action. As of 10:30 AM, the Jun-06-25 140 Call stood out as the single most traded option, racking up an impressive 58,736 contracts—making up a significant 8% of the stock’s entire options volume for the session. The backdrop? NVDA stock was up 2.76% at $141.17, marking a gain of $3.79 on the day.
Trade Dynamics Show Balanced Bullish Tilt as Implied Volatility Slips
| Contract | Volume | Open Interest | Trade Price VWAP | Implied Volatility | IV Change (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jun-06-25 140 Call | 58,736 | 63,636 | 2.08 | 30.6 | -1.3 |
The trade volume for this 140 call is even more striking when you consider the flow: 52.4% of the trades were classified as ‘buys’ against 47.4% ‘sells.’ The data points to a near balance between bullish and bearish sentiment, with a slight bullish edge—just as the stock notched new intraday highs.
The average trade price (VWAP) for the contract was $2.08, while prices traded as low as $1.25 and as high as $3.15. With the last trade going through at $3.12, there’s clear evidence of heightened demand as NVDA surged.
Retail Traders Lead, But Large Players Are Active Too
What’s perhaps more telling: small or retail traders accounted for 54% of the trades, while institutional or professional-sized trades made up 46%. While this hints at robust participation from individual investors, nearly half the volume involved sizable professional hands, indicating cross-market conviction on the potential for further upside—or at least a hedge against downside moves.
Technical Indicators Lean Bullish, Implied Volatility Remains Steady
| Implied Volatility (Last) | Previous Day Close IV | Open IV | Low IV | High IV |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 32.1 | 31.0 | 28.8 | 28.8 | 32.6 |
Implied volatility (IV) for the contract closed yesterday at 31.0 and saw a slight dip of 1.3% to 30.6, trading in a relatively tight band between 28.8 and 32.6 today. While the drop in IV could suggest lower near-term fear, the persistent interest in call buying—paired with today’s price momentum—implies traders aren’t shy about expressing bullish views as the next expiry approaches.
Key Takeaway: Heightened Call Activity Signals Elevated Interest—But Caution Remains
What does this record call volume mean for NVDA’s short-term trajectory? While we can’t definitively determine whether these trades represent new positions or the unwinding of old ones, the scale of the activity—paired with a balanced buy/sell split and strong price action—signals significant anticipation for further movement.
With implied volatility holding steady and both retail and institutional traders active, NVDA’s options market is telling a story of optimism tempered by a measure of caution. Traders might want to keep a close watch on both IV shifts and open interest trends as expiry nears—because today’s flurry of activity could be the precursor to another outsized move in Nvidia.
