The flow was overwhelmingly skewed toward calls. Of the total, 27,334 contracts were call options while put options accounted for 527 contracts.

Activity concentrated heavily in a single option line: the July 10, 2026 $10 call. That strike represented the lion's share of volume with 16,143 contracts traded, compared with an existing open interest figure of 1,210 contracts.

Context and market implications

This intraday options snapshot shows where trading interest concentrated within Teladoc’s options chain during the reporting window. The data reflect executed option contracts and reported open interest levels for the specific strikes and expirations named. No further conclusions about underlying motives or market impact are drawn from these figures alone.

Risks

  • Concentration risk - a single strike, the July 10, 2026 $10 call, represented a large portion of the day’s volume (16,143 contracts) relative to its open interest (1,210), which highlights concentration in one option line. (Options - Markets)
  • Complex-position visibility - the August 21, 2026 call spread involved both $10 and $9 strikes and totaled 3,006 contracts, which may complicate interpretation of directional bias when viewed only through aggregate volume statistics. (Options - Trading)
  • Limited inference from raw volume - the data report executed contracts and open interest; they do not by themselves reveal the intent behind trades or the identities of participants, leaving uncertainty about how the flow may affect underlying equity liquidity or pricing.
