Is $1.2M the premium amount?
Ok, how come this hasn’t been copied/noted in this options thread? This certainly hints at insider knowledge and trading if a TWTR settlement is imminent.

Two decimal places.12,761 contracts even at the high of the day ($0.31) is less than $4000. Seems insignificant even if it does look suspicious on the chart. Or am I missing something?

Weekly Kickoff - Extreme Fear and Massive Options Volume — Opinicus 🦅
We are seeing extremes everywhere - Highest put option volume in history, explosive put/call ratios, etc. Here is how we are cutting through the noise. A look ahead to the most important macro events, market data, technical setups and more.opinicusholdings.com
"There is attention being paid to the record-breaking “put buying” (by small lot traders, 1-10 contracts) and put volume traded data that was released by the Options Clearing Corp on Friday.
While this is true, the headlines which are grabbing attention fail to address one key aspect here - The sell to open premium that was also done on Friday. This premium is also at a record level, surpassing the size that was sold to open in 2021.
To put it simply, the buying (to open) and selling (to open) offset each other. The massive volume done on Friday was not purely buying, and nor was it heavily biased towards retail either.
While pouring over the data from the OCC, we came across an interesting find that isn’t being talked about - The ETF (QQQ, SPY, etc) flow.
Total premium bought and sold (for both open and close) shows levels not seen since 2020. This is indicative of heavy puts being closed (or sold to open) in this past week. This has been associated with near-term bottoms in the past, so something to keep in mind. This is perhaps the most interesting piece of data from Friday’s close."
Will need to educate mine a bit more to get some trading ideas from her as wellThis week we will see if we bounce at June lows and probability of the end of the bear market if we double bottom. I can’t see if we breached June lows yesterday with the intraday candles that breached however closing price was above. Not clear.
Friday I bought 2500 TQQQ
Wanted to buy a mix if 500 GOOG, PYPL META and QQQ to diversify a bit. My wife told me to sell 3 ITM puts 15 DTE on GOOG, 3 puts on PYPL, 3 puts on QQQ. She told me this way I would have the premium to buy more TSLA if it goes lower.
This morning we seem to be gapping up. Good news so far.

I'm expecting a small "beat" on the P&D, 360-365, but I think in the current environment this will be a huge message to the markets, and EPS come earnings will be even better, of course...Earlier this morning my Oct 320 cc, a roll from last week, had the net position ahead very slightly (like $1 per contract) and I decided to close them out. With P&D coming very soon I am sitting out on the cc side in anticipation of a really good report. I didn't want those contracts to be in the way of a run.
not-advice (really, really not advice)
I'm liking the possibility of a really strong P&D report enough; surprisingly strong to wall street, that I've decided to follow along with that big 350 call position and bought calls at the 320 and 350 strike for Oct 7. This is strictly a P&D play with an expectation that I'll be closing on Monday or Tuesday after P&D. I don't anticipate riding these to expiration. I'm really, really hoping for an "oh **** moment" from investors when they realize they've got Tesla mis-valued badly, in which case I'll make out like a bandit.
My history with these sorts of trades is that I'll lose 50%+ or about the week of income the 275 strike puts I've got open for this week will earn. This is the actual outcome that I expect.
In at .30 and 1.25.
Really, really not advice.
