AMD
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.Close $475.51EOD onlyThis page reflects AMD options positioning from the latest published market-close snapshot. Intraday price and contract changes are not displayed.
Historical consensus-supported lens with full content, report chain context, and metric rail.
Outlook
AMD trades below max pain ($482) with high IV and strong dealer gamma support ($+2.8M) near $453. The pinning effect and positive GEX suggest limited downside, but bearish spot-vs-MP and mixed flow create caution. Bias is neutral-to-slightly bearish short-term, with structural support at $390 gamma flip.
Conflicts: High vol regime, spot below MP, mixed flow, broad tech selloff (QQQ -2%), low VIX relief unlikely.
Regime Classification
Price Range Forecast
Key Levels
Dealer Positioning (GEX/DEX)
GEX: $+2.8M
DEX: +96.8M shares
Gamma flip: ~$390 (Approx — based on put OI concentration of 16,243 (13.8% below spot))
NTM gamma: Dealer gamma +$2.8M with long delta +96.8M shares; flip at $390 (put-heavy). Positive near-term gamma supports spot but exposure is large.
IV Analysis
IV vs VIX: IV is rich relative to VIX (22) given high vol regime; options premium inflated, favoring sellers if realized vol cools.
Term structure: Short-term IV elevated due to OPEX and macro; back end lower – contango suggests event-specific vol, not persistent.
Skew: Put skew elevated (protection demand); call skew muted. Opportunity: sell put spreads below $390 gamma flip for premium.
Flow Analysis
Net premium: Mixed flows: $32.5M net call premium (vol bias) but OI ratio 1.12 (put-heavy) and one unusual put.
Directional prints: 73.3 call 470 OTM 2026-07-17 — Vol/OI 9.4, last $35.25; likely bought as directional recovery bet. 76.1 call 455 OTM 2026-06-12 — Vol/OI 8.3, last $11; bull flow continuation.
Unusual: 73.3 call 470 OTM 2026-07-17 — High vol/OI 9.4 suggests new large buyer. 76.1 call 455 OTM 2026-06-12 — Vol/OI 8.3, OTM call sweep. 72.2 put 420 OTM 2026-09-18 — Vol/OI 4.9, last $51; downside hedge or put buying.
