IV Environment

IV Regime
High
IV vs VIX
Average IV (123.8%) is 7x VIX (17.7%), extreme discrepancy.
Favorable?
Yes

Term structure: Term structure downward sloping in ATM IV but near-term put IV extreme (359% at 0 DTE). High near-term skew.

Put IV of 359% on 0 DTE indicates extreme hedging demand; high premium for sellers.
📈Dealer GEX +$52.7M positive; long gamma supports pinning and dampens vol.

Pin Risk Assessment

Spot vs MP: Above

GEX regime: Pinning ($+52.7M)

Gamma flip: ~$730.00Approx — based on put OI concentration of 16,791 (25.6% below spot)

OI concentrations: Put floor $500-$800 (16.8k OI at 730 gamma flip), Call wall $1050-$1200. Max pain pins: $920 (6/12), $500 (6/18), $900 (6/26).

Verdict: Spot ~$981 is 6.7% above today's max pain ($920). High put OI below spot acts as support, but risk of pinning to $920 if sold.

How to Use These Reports
This theta reflects the market close on June 12, 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.
