Volume and open interest are contract counts. IV is annualised. A dash means the value was not supplied; zero is a reported value.

Options balance over time

Session history โ†’

Saved pressure readings

Dated readings using the same calculation version. Positive is call-heavy; negative is put-heavy.

Gamma sensitivity Modelled scenario

Sensitivity by strike

Estimated delta change for a 1% stock move, expressed in dollars.

Scenario proxy = gamma ร— open interest ร— 100 shares ร— spotยฒ ร— 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.

Outcome record Completed observations only

Stock-price direction through expiry, using the first available weekly close on or just after expiry. These are not option-trade returns.

Record Followed direction Always up Always down 95% interval

Earlier saved readings are reviewed retrospectively, separately from readings recorded in advance. Overlapping periods are excluded. The comparison uses the same stocks and dates; costs and option execution are not tested.

Options volume and open interest describe activity. They do not identify buyers, sellers or whether positions were opened or closed. Prices and readings are dated; they are not live quotes.
