I noticed that too. Also VIX is not going up today (bouncing around unchanged). Bulls have a chance. Short-term trade: Long ES from 1446. I will get out if conditions change. Denleo

A ton of those contracts traded today are way out of the money and most of them are sold. They are capitalizing on the high implied volatilities, what's really worse is they sold more call contracts than put contracts. I do not read too much into it at the moment.
