How to read RIVN's put/call ratio
Start with the headline expiration in the 2026-08-31 snapshot. For RIVN options expiring 2026-09-04, 29,655 put contracts divided by 40,602 calls produced a put/call ratio of 0.73. Across all 7 listed expirations inside 45 days, the chain-wide ratio was 0.54, from 228,808 puts and 422,483 calls. The headline ratio was 0.19 higher than the chain-wide ratio, so this expiration was relatively more put-heavy than the 45-day chain overall. This comparison describes contract mix, not who bought or sold the options.
For historical context, we store the nearest-expiration ratio each night. For RIVN, that is 19 readings since 2026-07-23. The latest was 0.73 on 2026-08-31 for the 2026-09-04 expiration: 18 recorded days came in below it and 0 above it. The recorded range was 0.27 to 0.73, with a median of 0.42. This is a short record published with its sample size, not a claim about what is normal.
A rolling set of expirations is not one continuous sentiment series, and none of these counts carries directional meaning on its own. Read why open-interest ratios count contracts, not bullish or bearish intent.

The same RIVN chain, other lenses
These figures come from the same nightly open-interest file as the rest of the RIVN pages. RIVN max pain turns the chain into the settlement price that would pay option holders the least; RIVN open interest shows where the contracts actually sit, strike by strike; RIVN gamma exposure estimates how dealers are positioned against the same book.
Common questions
What was the RIVN put/call ratio in the latest available snapshot?
Using open interest settled at the close on 2026-08-31, the RIVN put/call open-interest ratio was 0.73 for the 2026-09-04 expiration: 29,655 put contracts against 40,602 calls. Across every listed expiration inside 45 days the chain carried 228,808 puts against 422,483 calls, a ratio of 0.54.
What does a put/call open-interest ratio measure?
It divides the number of put contracts still outstanding by the number of call contracts still outstanding for the same expiration. It counts contracts, not trades and not intent: a put bought as portfolio insurance, a put sold for income, and a put inside a spread all add one contract to the same total. A ratio above 1 means more puts than calls exist; that is all the number itself says.
Is a high RIVN put/call ratio bearish?
The ratio cannot answer that on its own, and we do not attach a direction to it. Open interest counts both sides of every contract — every put someone bought is a put someone else sold — and hedging, income selling and spreads all inflate the count without expressing a view on RIVN. We publish the ratio as a description of how the chain is positioned, alongside max pain and the open-interest walls, and leave the interpretation to you.
Is the latest available RIVN put/call ratio high or low for RIVN?
We can only answer that against our own record, and we will say how short it is. Since 2026-07-23 we have stored 19 daily readings for RIVN, each taken on whichever expiration was nearest that night: the lowest was 0.27, the median 0.42 and the highest 0.73. The most recent, 0.73 on 2026-08-31 for the 2026-09-04 expiration, came in above 18 of those days and below 0 of them. 19 days is not enough history to establish what is normal for RIVN, and where a ratio sits inside a range does not imply a direction — open interest counts contracts on both sides of every trade.
When does the RIVN put/call ratio update?
Open interest is settled once per trading day by the clearing house, so the ratio can only change once a day. This page is rebuilt nightly from that end-of-day file; intraday option volume does not move open interest until the next settlement.
