Brandon just spotted something massive hidden in today's options flow.

He pulled up the Ghost Prints surveillance console and found 103,000 contracts on GRAB Holdings trading ahead of tonight's earnings.

Here's what stood out:

25,000 contracts bought in a single trade at the ask
$6.50 calls expiring November 21st
Only 6,000 open interest before this hit
This creates structural pressure. Market makers sold those calls. Now they have to hedge by buying stock. The more GRAB pushes toward $6.50, the more hedging accelerates. Brandon calls this getting "to and through" a level.

GRAB also carries 5.5% short interest across a 2.6 billion float. The stock has ripped from $3.60 to $5.50 in weeks before. Could it hit $7.50 if it breaks through $6.50 after earnings? Absolutely.

Brandon found two more setups:

AMD: 19,000 put contracts at $230 ahead of tomorrow's earnings
Bank of America BAC: 5,000 contracts on $51.50/$52 puts as it tests resistance
The surveillance console surfaced 36 block trades today. Brandon's process is simple. Find 10 compelling prints. Set up 2-3 trades. Take the best ones each week.
