MSFT LEAPs Showing Strong Institutional Bullish Flow-Trade idea*.
Last week we were discussing how NASDAQ:MSFT price action was likely to first sweep the remaining liquidity sitting in the low 350s before we could expect any meaningful reversal or continuation.
Well, here we are, the price has come very close to tapping exactly those liquidity levels, and now we’re starting to see early signs of institutional interest stepping in.
Today, Monday March 30, 2026, the LEAPs options flow is sending a clear long-term bullish signal. The December 18, 2026 $575 Call stands out as the single highest volume strike across all LEAPs, with over 200,129 contracts traded today alone.
This concentrated call buying at high strikes in the long-dated LEAPs is classic smart money & institutional positioning. Institutions appear to be loading up aggressively, suggesting they may know something the broader market doesn’t, or at least they have high conviction that the current weakness and liquidity sweep in the 350s is a buying opportunity rather than the start of a deeper decline.
Are we approaching a local or intermediate bottom in NASDAQ:MSFT ?
The LEAPs flow today is leaning heavily toward "yes"
Watching this setup very closely. Smart money positioning deserves attention.
Long
