USO AI Consensus Report
Analysis based on market close May 13, 2026

Historical consensus-supported lens with full content, report chain context, and metric rail.

Conviction
6.0

out of 10

6.0 not 7.0 because put buying signal directly contradicts the pin thesis, reducing conviction despite GEX support.

Where Perspectives Agree

Bullish pin to $135 supported by positive dealer gamma and term structure, but flow shows heavy put buying implying bearish hedging.

Where They Diverge

Aggressive put buying from flow undermines directional bullish thesis, indicating market expects downside risk.

Top Trade
via theta

Sell 2026-06-18 $134/$158 iron condor for credit.

Key Risk

Break below $135 invalidates pin, triggers dealer gamma flip and acceleration to lower levels.

How to Use These Reports
This ai consensus reflects the market close on May 13, 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.
