As the futures rose on Monday, investors were seen taking profit on HSI call warrants and collecting HSI put warrants, namely HSI-H4B and HSI-H4I, as the warrant bid prices fell with the futures’ rise. When the futures fell mid-week, investors instead took profit on the HSI puts and took up positions in the HSI calls, namely HSI-C3F, HSI-C3I and HSI-C3K.

The reverse happened again on Thursday as the futures rebounded, while on Friday bullish investors continued collecting calls, resulting in most of the warrants named above topping the most-active list. Put warrant HSI-H4I came up tops with 292.2 million units traded and call warrant HSI-C3I came in second with 278.8 million units.
