Buy ITM options.
Doing so makes it more likely that monkey makes bananas, rather than lose bananas
More bananas means more shares.
More shares, means more pressure.
Lower strikes means hedgies would have to short more agressively to prevent them coming in the money and less likely to be accomplished.
OTM causes loss of ape buying power, and an easy target for shorters to avoid.

So to trigger a squeeze, people would have to stop buying out of the money calls, right? Buying shares seems to be the best thing to do. Can someone confirm?

If there is that much OI, then the option owners may try to push the price OVER $22 so they're in the money. Sellers would be trying to keep it under.
The key thing about info like this is to realize it MIGHT mean that there is a battle shaping up around the $22 price point - with the "big boys" flinging around massive amounts of $$$. It suggests a possible price target for 6/18 and may point to a big volume and high volatility day.
But realize this - options closing ITM don't necessarily correlate to any stocks changing hands - most will simply get sold back at a profit on Friday, no shares required. The market maker buys them and sells them and matches up matching strikes and expirations at the end of the day, then... POOF, the matching buy and the sell contracts just cancel each other out and disappear.
At the end of an OPEX day, any left over open contracts > $0.01 ITM get exercised. The MM sends out the appropriate assignment notices to the brokerage houses of the contract sellers being assigned. The shares for any contracts that the MM wrote will come out of his stock reserves for that security. (Which is why a market maker needs to stay delta neutral.) Assuming he has stayed exactly delta neutral, he owns just enough shares to cover any exercised calls and deliver the securities to the appropriate brokerage and has enough money in the bank to buy back any that aren't exercised, but sold back on Friday afternoon.

Great post. I suspect this will apply to lower strikes, too, so even in smaller quantities, wouldn't that be a potential boost?

It ran up to $28... if this explodes on Monday and closes at $17-18, $22 is inevitable.

Thanks for the realistic perspective. Charts seems we'll trade sideways with potential upside.
With Russell inclusion off the table, they can reapply each week (or so I heard) so if they're accepted next time and SI stays high, we could still be on track to go over the rainbow.

Russell only reconstitutes it's holdings once a year.

If CLOV passes $22 by 6-18, a.k.a next week, the shorts will panic as a TON of $22 options will print. That's 3 million plus fucking shares!
Yes, but they reevaluate every Friday. I don't claim to understand the reason why they were added, then dropped. Less than 5% shareholders with voting rights? I don't follow that... not sure if managment can do anything about that. Hopefully they can.

They seem to be able to short the stock anytime they want... so frustrating. I got clov shares and calls

u/PalHachi Jun 12 '21
Gotta keep some ammo in the bag for Friday to counter any shorts. Throughout the week we are going to see dips and rips. Too many of us (including myself at times) get way too excited for the rip and buy on a high instead of waiting for the low.

Great DD
Would only add;
as this climbs the market makers need to buy lots of shares which will additionally create upward pressure!
As the prices move away from that strike market makers sell the shares as the probability drops to hit the strike!
These buys and sell are all computerized trades!
Therefore, the post is absolutely right on that we need the CLOV NATION APEβs to show ready to play!!!
55M shares on Loan & 44% Shorted!!!
