🔹 $META - The Megalodon Call
$720 Calls exp 12/18/25 — $25.3M in premium
$710 Calls exp 06/18/26 — $11.5M
Context: When you see staggered, long-dated calls like this? That’s not a yolo bet — that’s institutional conviction. Meta isn’t just in play. It’s the play.
🔹 $TSLA - The Long Game
$500 Calls exp 01/15/27 — $4.99M premium
Context: This isn’t a weekly lotto. This is a bet on Tesla being way higher... two years from now. Someone sees a future where $TSLA gets its groove back.
🔹 $SPY - Titanic Puts
$480/$510/$515 Puts exp 07/25/25 — Over $30M combined
Context: These are huge blocks coming in hard and fast. With dark pool prints backing it up (more below), it’s clear some funds are prepping for downside risk.

$100 Puts exp 01/16/26 — $7.05M
$125 Calls exp 08/15/25 — $3.12M

🌊 Dark Pool Currents — Where the Whales Really Swim
🟣 $SPY - Monster Moves
$717M x2 dark pool blocks at $597.65
Context: $1.4B+ in institutional-sized trades. These don’t show up unless something big is brewing. Either funds are selling into strength... or front-loading a macro move.
🟣 $AVGO - Surprise Whale
$272M dark pool block at $250.73
Context: One of the largest single name prints all week. Tech exposure rotation?
🟣 $BND / $BIL - Rotation into Bonds
$412M (BND) + $309M (BIL)
Context: When bond ETFs light up like this, it’s usually a signal that macro fear is creeping in.
🧠 Easy Explainers (For the Non-Quants)
What’s a sweep? A fast-moving order that gets filled across multiple exchanges. It usually means urgency.
What’s a block? One giant order filled in a single transaction. Big money. Big intention.
Dark pool? Private exchanges where institutions move in silence. It’s not illegal — just not always transparent to retail until later.
