Regime

DampeningFlip 7,511Call wall 7,683Put wall 7,593

Open-interest gamma is net negative while live intraday flow gamma is firmly positive. The dampening structure rests on same-day gamma that expires at the close.

Scenarios

Range

Rotation between put support 7593 and the 7683-7708 cluster, with magnets at 7613 and 7663-7668.

Upside break

Acceptance above 7683 turns the 7688-7708 cluster into a magnet.

Invalidation Back below 7683

Downside break

Loss of 7593 opens acceleration toward 7511.

Invalidation Reclaim of 7613

GO / NO-GO checklist

✕ Red
  • Major macro release < 30 min (16:00 CEST)
▲ Caution
  • OI net gamma swung > 10% vs prior day
  • OI vs live-flow regime divergence
  • VIX +6% while 1-day vol collapses -9%
✓ Green
  • Price well above the flip
  • Walls ~1.2% apart
  • Expected move >= 0.4%

Flow

No directional same-day large position. Dominant flow is long-dated hedging spreads. Net premium bias mixed: index puts net sold, tech puts net bought.
