Pasta from last thread:
PLTR is on the radar for market makers and hedge funds who use a standard retail-cucking playbook.
You can look up "option pinning" - a quick explanation here:

Basically MMs and funds have been selling high IV calls to you and since they expire today they have to make sure PLTR closes BELOW the strikes sold. They hold enough shares to move price down and stop themselves from getting assigned tonight.

Next week there is YUGE open interest on the 35 and 40 strike calls and PLTR has earnings on tuesday... I would be wary.
You can look up Max Pain options theory and there is a way to calculate it, for PLTR next week, its $34
