We're talking nearly 15k contracts, mostly in the 7/17
$43.5 calls
Volume there hit around 9k, blowing past prior open interest

$43 to

Holding above it is key if you're leaning bullish
Also, don't forget there's an October put hedge in play, so some caution is warranted beyond the short term

Tight risk management is crucial here
