NFLX CALL +$1.53 (+167F) held 5h55m — bands tightened then broke higher
Bands tightened at entry with volatility squeezed, then price climbed from the cellar toward and above the opening range high. Options flow flipped to bullish by 2:05pm, momentum confirmed by 10:40am, and the call-side demand held without a near overhead cap (put wall at $100, call wall at $112).
NFLX calls entered at $90.77 at 10:00am and exited at $92.30 at 3:55pm for a +$1.53 win over 5h 55m, but at just +$0.26 per hour it was a profitable hold with mediocre efficiency. Z3 confirmed the move at 10:30am, 6 bars after entry, then stayed hot with 21 bullish momentum bars and a peak reading of 5.00. Options flow started bearish with puts in control, then flipped bullish at 2:05pm and stayed that way into the close, while the $100 put wall sat below and the $112 call wall was far enough overhead to avoid capping the trade. Momentum lined up when the trend gauges tightened near entry, buyers took control by 10:40am, and structure helped with a bullish volume anchor from 9:35am, no overhead resistance line, and price pushing from the upper part of the opening range to above the IB high.
Verdict: clean enough structurally and directionally right, but it took time to pay and was more theta-expensive than the final gain suggests.
