The outcome record
Stock-price direction through expiry, using the first available weekly close on or just after expiry. These are not option-trade returns.
New readings are saved before their outcomes. A calculation change starts a separate record.
0 / 0Non-overlapping directional readings followed through.
2 waiting for an outcome · 0 excluded by data or timing checks.
Too few independent outcomes to establish an edge.Non-overlapping directional readings followed through. 16 overlapping readings left out.
Always-up baseline: 50% · Always-down: 50%.
95% interval: 34–100%.
This is a retrospective audit of saved versions, separate from the record collected in advance.
The baselines use the same stocks and observation windows. They ask whether a simple up or down call did as well.
Removing overlapping windows reduces repeated counting. It does not make market observations fully independent.
The interval shows sampling uncertainty. Costs, execution and option selection are not tested here.
Priced Move
Options imply 41.02 to 47.32. Max pain at 45.00 sits inside that range, 1.9% above spot.
A close beyond 47.32 or below 41.02 at the 16 Oct expiry would exceed the move currently priced by this chain.
The range is a pricing reference, not a forecast; volatility can reprice sharply after news or as expiry approaches.
Score Construction
Pressure is 88/100 toward puts; conviction uses its strength, while the signal label carries its direction.
How strongly activity leans toward calls or puts.
Volume relative to existing open interest and contract-level activity.
How closely the chain read agrees with the underlying trend backdrop.
The intensity of implied volatility and the priced move.
Positioning by Strike
The largest call open-interest concentration is 55.00; the largest put concentration is 40.00. The most active strike by current volume is 40.00. Open-interest concentrations show where positions exist; they are not proven support, resistance or dealer exposure.
Gamma Profile by Strike
Call-side gamma sensitivity outweighs the put-side proxy across the retained chain. The largest bars mark levels where delta-hedging sensitivity may be most concentrated.
Scenario proxy = gamma × open interest × 100 shares × spot² × 1%. Calls are positive and puts negative by convention. Missing Greeks use a Black-Scholes estimate from stored IV with zero rate and dividend assumptions. Open interest does not reveal who is long or short, so this is not observed dealer positioning or a forecast.
Volatility Curve
Near- and longer-dated implied volatility are broadly aligned; no exceptional front-expiry premium is visible.
Volatility by Strike
Out-of-the-money calls carry higher implied volatility than comparable puts, indicating richer upside optionality.
Historical Replay
Across 18 stored directional transitions, the next stored price moved in the labelled direction 44% of the time.
Eligible snapshots must have a dated market session, stored signal, and point-in-time market reference. Each observation uses one read per market session and the first stored weekly close on or immediately after expiry; its original calculation version is retained. It is an evidence audit, not an executable strategy or evidence of future performance.
Evidence Quality
Aggregate chain data supports concentration, participation and pricing analysis. It does not identify trade aggressor, opening versus closing activity, multi-leg intent or dealer inventory.
Options Intent Radar
Put-side activity dominates. This can reflect hedging or directional positioning, but the chain alone cannot distinguish buying from selling.
Put-side pressure is present before a decisive weekly price breakdown.
Put-heavy activity matters because it connects the options headline to the actual evidence: $1.4M of estimated gross traded notional, puts · 46-90 days · otm, and a bearish flow before price confirmation backdrop. Use it as a research priority signal, then validate the chart, liquidity, event calendar, and risk before acting.
