Options Greeks Exposure (modeled)

A modeled estimate of the options exposure dealers carry across 113 major underlyings, greek by greek: gamma (GEX) with the zero-gamma flip level and the by-strike profile, dollar delta (DEX), vega and vanna (VEX), charm (CEX), and the volatility structure behind them. Everything is computed from end-of-day open interest and implied volatility under a standard assumption about dealer positioning, so it is an estimate, not observed dealer data. Read it as positioning context (where hedging flows cluster, and whether they tend to dampen or amplify moves), not as a forecast or a trade signal.

As of end of day 2026-10-06 (1 days ago) / Modeled from end-of-day exchange-published options chains

SPY modeled dealer gamma exposure was positive at the 2026-10-06 close: net GEX of $9.86Bn in dollar gamma per 1% move (net long gamma), with the zero-gamma flip level at 774.52 and spot at 779.09.

Kresmion models net dealer gamma exposure as Black-Scholes gamma times open interest, signed by the standard dealer long-call and short-put assumption, with the zero-gamma flip level and the by-strike profile; it is a modeled estimate, not observed dealer positions.

Modeling assumptions (read before using)

This is a MODELED estimate, not a disclosed dealer position. It rests on assumptions that may not hold; we state them so the numbers are read for what they are:

Computed from end-of-day options-chain market data. A modeled estimate, presented as a modeled estimate.

Kresmion models net dealer gamma exposure as Black-Scholes gamma times open interest, signed by the standard dealer long-call and short-put assumption, with the zero-gamma flip level and the by-strike profile; it is a modeled estimate, not observed dealer positions.
