Gamma exposure levels, ZoroTide and how to read them.
GEX+ basics · ZoroTide
What is GEX+?
GEX+ turns the options chain into a few price levels: a call wall, a put wall and a zero-gamma line. It draws them on futures charts so you can read the day's context. Levels are context, not trade signals.
Where to find it: GEX+ (dock)
What do call wall, put wall and zero gamma mean?
- Call wall: the strike above price with the most call gamma. Often watched as an upper edge of the day's range.
- Put wall: the strike below price with the most put gamma. Often watched as a lower edge.
- Zero gamma: the price where net gamma flips from positive to negative. It marks the regime change.
They are reference levels, not predictions.
What is the regime or net GEX?
Net GEX is the total gamma across strikes. Positive suggests dealers are long gamma, negative that they are short gamma. The page shows the figure and a regime label for context only.
