Paper bought 30,000 BAC Dec 2 weekly 21.5 calls for .02, which was the offer and, based on open interest, is likely an opening trade.

This appears to be a customer that thinks there could be continued upside in BAC through the end of next week.  The trade will reach maximum profit if BAC runs above 21.5 by a week from Friday.  The stock has been outpacing IV, thus this could be a play on volatility being too cheap.  Alternatively, while there is no stock in this trade, it could be a hedge for someone establishing a new short although this is less likely. This trade is aggressively bullish volatil...
