The options market showed heightened activity in Amazon (AMZN) as derivatives flow concentrated on the 17-Jun-2027 370 Call contract. During the session, open interest increased by approximately 6,320 contracts, aligning with new contract creation and suggesting an uptick in broader market exposure.
Most of the trades took place near a volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of 5.000704, while the option last traded at 5.575—up 0.574296 from VWAP—pointing to some price strengthening after the trading cluster.
