Each row is a single option contract our scanner flagged as unusual: volume far above the standing open interest (at least 2.5x and at least 500 contracts traded), with a real premium. Vol/OI is the ratio of today's volume to open interest: the higher it is, the more of the day's volume was fresh positioning rather than existing holdings. Premium is last price times volume, an approximation of the money that moved through the contract, not a settled tape total. Contracts are re-scanned about every 15 minutes during market hours; this page is the settled end-of-day record.
