Flow Summary

Net premium: -$77.6M bearish

Net premium negative, far OTM put hedging. But low put/call volume ratio and positive GEX suggest call demand and pinning. Mixed.

Institutional Positioning

Call additions: Calls added at $64.5, $66, $75, $78 on high vol/oi ratios

Put additions: Large $95 put (14,940 vol, 147x OI) and $64 put (7,166 vol)

GEX/DEX consistency: Positive GEX ($169M) and DEX (229.5M shares) consistent with bullish gamma pinning

OI clusters: Largest put OI $64 (46k); scattered call OI at $64-$78

Hedging evidence: $95 put far OTM likely institutional tail hedge; $64 put for near-term protection

Max pain context: Spot above MP; gamma flip at $50; pinning expected near $64-$66

Signal vs Noise

~$95 put print is noise: far OTM hedge, not directional
~Call additions across strikes signal bullish accumulation
~Negative net premium but more calls than puts suggests bullish flow dominates
~Regime 'Mixed' flow reflects both hedging and speculation

Key Conclusions

🚀Call accumulation $64-$78 signals bullish positioning with positive GEX/DEX support
⚠️Massive $95 put (147x OI) is a tail hedge, not a bearish bet
🔍Spot above MP with mixed flow: calls dominate but put hedging present
How to Use These Reports
This flow reflects the market close on June 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.
