The Hot Options Report: 02-09-26

Join Mark Longo for the Monday, February 9th edition of The Hot Options Report.

We break down the Top 10 most active equity options, tracking heavy zero-day (0DTE) action in Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon, while Nvidia takes the crown with a massive 2.28M contract haul.

Plus, we dive into the "Monster" itself, MicroStrategy ($MSTR), as Bitcoin volatility continues to spill over into the equity markets. Whether you're chasing par strikes in Apple or hunting for duration in Alphabet, we have the flow breakdown you need.
