Najarian noticed a purchase of the October $24.50 calls in Virgin Galactic and he sees that as a sign that somebody is expecting a great performance of the stock this month. Over 5,000 contracts were traded in the first half of the session for about a dollar. The trade breaks even at $25.50 or almost 25% above the current stock price.

Traders were also buying the October $300 calls in Twilio. That is a part of the reason why Najarian has a long position in Twilio. He owns these calls.
