NVDA sits at a 14-day RSI of 52. That looks neutral. But negative options orders have dominated its weekly flow. Short sellers are also piling back in on a broader front. Bears are flagged across KVYO, SpaceX (SPCX), and Capricor Therapeutics in today's ORTEX signals.
KVYO is down 38% year-to-date. Its short score stands at 56.6 out of 100. DTC is 1.6 days. Put flow into this software name has been notable.

On the bullish side, Veeva Systems leads the positive options score table for large caps. RSI is 74.9. Its ORTEX stock score is 72. The momentum trade here is clearly upward.
AMD tells a different story. Up 117% year-to-date, but RSI has slipped to 44.8. Options flow has turned more cautious. The run may be taking a pause.
Micron stands out for bulls. It carries an ORTEX stock score of 95.2 — the highest in semiconductors. Analysts see 62% upside. Options positive count has been among the stronger in the sector this week.
Chips dominate options flow broadly. Negative bets cluster in the mega-caps. Smaller software names face mounting bearish positioning heading into September.
