GEX

SPY Dealer Gamma Exposure

What GEX surfaces

Dealer gamma exposure (GEX) aggregates per-strike net gamma of options dealers across SPY expiries weighted by open interest. It predicts the direction and force of dealer hedging when spot moves.

The 4 hero metrics

MetricWhy it matters
Regimepositive_gamma = dealers DAMPEN moves (mean-revert pin). negative_gamma = dealers AMPLIFY moves (breakout/crash mode). Single most consequential variable.
Flip distanceHow close spot is to the gamma flip level. <0.5% = pinning zone — high gamma sensitivity, fast moves possible. <1% = high sensitivity.
Top wallStrike with largest net dealer gamma. Acts as a magnet (above flip) or barrier (below flip). Often the day's pin/break level.
0DTE δ shareHow much of dealer short-call delta sits in 0DTE. >30% = same-day-concentration risk; intraday squeeze potential.

Reading the strike chart

Each bar = net gamma at that strike. Green bars above the flip = dampening zone. Red bars below = amplification zone. The vertical line is current spot. The dashed line is the gamma flip.
