SMART MONEY FLOW — UNUSUAL OPTIONS ACTIVITY
Unusual options activity, scored and filtered
"Unusual" means activity that stands out from a ticker's baseline — outsized premium, volume above open interest, aggressive execution, or repeated prints. GiottoO scores each observation 0–100 and rejects what does not meet liquidity, premium and confirmation standards.
The 0–100 flow score
Premium size, volume/OI, execution side, sweep/block structure, DTE, moneyness, liquidity grade, underlying confirmation, dark-pool alignment, catalyst presence and IV context each move the score up or down.
When GiottoO rejects flow
Thin liquidity, wide bid/ask spreads, open interest below 100, or elevated IV into earnings can reject an observation outright — the score is floored and the event is labeled Rejected Flow.
Why rejection builds trust
Most "unusual" activity is not actionable. Showing what was thrown out, and why, is more honest than forcing a trade idea from every large print.

FAQ
Does unusual options activity predict the stock?
No. It is an educational observation that requires confirmation. GiottoO never presents it as a prediction or recommendation.
What makes GiottoO reject an observation?
Thin liquidity, wide spreads, very low open interest, or IV-crush risk into earnings are common hard rejections.
