Flow Summary

Net premium: -$72.4M bearish

P/C volume ratio: 1.16

P/C OI ratio: 1.61

Aggressive short-dated call buying (700-710 strikes) drives massive volume relative to OI, despite negative net premium and put-heavy ratios. Dealer short gamma amplifies upside if spot rallies above gamma flip at 660. Overall mixed flow with bullish tilt from unusual prints.

Institutional Positioning

Call additions: Call OI spikes at $700-710

Put additions: Elevated put OI ratio (1.61) suggests institutional hedging

GEX/DEX consistency: Negative GEX (-$742M) and positive DEX align with trending bias

OI clusters: Largest call OI at $710 (859), put OI concentrated ~6.8% below spot

Hedging evidence: Net premium negative (-$72M) and high put/call OI indicate put buying

Max pain context: Spot below max pain? Not given; likely pin near high OI strikes

Signal vs Noise

~Negative GEX and put dominance are real signal
~Unusual prints with high volume/OI ratio indicate institutional hedging

Key Conclusions

📉Institutions hedging downside via puts, net negative premium
Call buying concentrated near expiry suggests pinning or gamma squeeze
🌀Negative gamma and high VIX indicate elevated risk of sharp moves
How to Use These Reports
This flow reflects the market close on June 9, 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.
