Options Indicators

Bloom Energy’s implied volatility stands at 82.29%, while its IV percentile is just 2.39%, indicating that although absolute implied volatility is high, it sits near the low end of its own historical range. In that context, current option pricing looks relatively cheap rather than stretched, and the IV/HV ratio of 1.11 suggests implied volatility is only modestly above realized volatility, pointing to premiums that are not especially rich versus recent actual movement.

The Call/Put volume ratio is 1.06.

Large Trades

A call purchase worth $5.30 million dominated the large-trade flow in BE, with 2,716 contracts bought on the 270.0 strike expiring October 2, 2026. With the stock reference price at 276.53, these calls were in the money at execution, which makes the trade a clearly bullish directional bet with intrinsic value already embedded. The buyer is positioning for further upside while using long calls to maintain leveraged exposure into a relatively long-dated expiration.

Overall, the bulk-order flow was decisively bullish. The large-trade activity was entirely concentrated in an in-the-money call buy, indicating conviction that BE can extend gains rather than merely hold current levels. With no offsetting bearish block activity appearing in the figures, the order flow points to constructive sentiment and a clear upside bias from larger traders.

Strategy Reference

For a low assignment probability, a seller could consider out-of-the-money puts below the 200.00 strike, while a bull call spread using the 280.00/320.00 strikes would reduce margin versus an outright long call.
