Flow Summary

Net premium: -$702.8M bearish

P/C volume ratio: 0.91

P/C OI ratio: 0.73

Heavy 0DTE call speculation but net premium negative (-$703M) and negative GEX (-$12.1M) suggest bearish positioning. Put OI ratio low at 0.73, but put volume elevated. Bearish macro context (QQQ -3.3%, VIX 19.5) aligns with cautious outlook. Trend likely lower unless spot reclaims $385.

⚠️Net negative premium of -$703M reflects put positioning, conflicting with call buying.
How to Use These Reports
This flow reflects the market close on June 23, 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.
