IV Environment

IV Regime
High
IV vs VIX
IV at 91% is ~5x VIX (18.4), indicating extreme premium.
Favorable?
No

Term structure: 0DTE IV 228/295% shows severe skew; then contango at ~63-69%.

⚠️0DTE put IV 296% vs call 228% reflects heavy downside hedging.
📌Max pain $342 for 0DTE, but spot ~$450 suggests low pin risk near term.

Spot vs MP: Above

GEX regime: Pinning ($+12.6M)

OI concentrations: Put floor $240; call wall $450-$530; max pain pins $342, $410, $380.

Verdict: Spot 23.8% above nearest max pain; call wall may cap upside, reducing pin risk for short puts.

How to Use These Reports
This theta reflects the market close on May 15, 2026.
What the reports do

Each report translates the same market-close options snapshot into a specific lens such as directional bias, premium-selling posture, flow quality, or earnings setup.

How traders use them

Reports are most useful for narrowing the playbook, surfacing entry and risk context, and deciding which raw data page to inspect next.

What to remember

These are interpretation layers, not execution guarantees. Validate the setup against chain liquidity, expected move, and exposure before sizing risk.

If the report conviction and the raw data disagree, slow down and resolve the mismatch before sizing risk.
