Re: Shorts covering using call options 28 minutes ago You are seeing the calls being sold naked because there is not any borrow available. The negative on the position is outrageously high so the options provide a method to participate on the short side.No one is worried about covering and you certaily wouldn't use options as a method for that.
In summary, you are completely wrong. The call activity is just more shorting. Thats why there is virtually no time premium.
