SPX GEX LEVELS | April 14 (PPI Day) 🚨🚨🚨🚨Tomorrow's expected range: 6,825 – 6,950. Pinned and grinding toward 7,000. Net GEX is approaching $1 billion. +$981M. Two weeks ago this number was -$1.33B. That's a $2.3B swing in dealer gamma exposure — the largest regime change we've tracked. Dealers are so long gamma now that even a macro catalyst like PPI gets absorbed. SPX closed at 6,886.21, sitting directly in the 6,875-6,900 zone which carries +$78M and +$153M respectively. The 7,000 strike is the max magnet at +$203M with 990K call OI, the call wall just shifted there for the first time. That's 114 points above the close. The gravitational pull toward 7,000 is the strongest single-strike reading we've recorded. Today's volume was the cleanest bullish session of the entire rally. 9 of the top 10 volume GEX strikes were positive. The heaviest flow hit 6,900 (+$111M), 6,950 (+$72M), and 7,000 (+$55M). Dealers are being loaded with long gamma between spot and 7,000. The path there is paved with stabilizing positioning. Net delta expanded to +230.0M shares — a new high. ATM IV compressed to 15.8%. The vol compression is notable heading into PPI. Implied moves are shrinking because the gamma structure is suppressing realized vol. Same setup as CPI last Thursday. Positive gamma means dealers sell rallies and buy dips. A hot PPI that tries to push SPX down gets bought. A soft PPI that tries to push SPX up gets sold. The reaction is dampened either way. The GEX flip sits at 6,648, 238 points below. That cushion keeps widening every session. It would take a PPI shock well outside consensus to threaten that level. $SPX $SPY $QQQ

New Atlas projections are still in testing But based off the current gex/vex profile, $SPY may see 653 by next Wednesday. Let’s see if it plays out

Safe to assume this isn’t playing out. I have nothing to hide nor shame in admitting that I just supplied data that I was seeing. Nothing more We’ve had a $66 rip from $629 in 10 trading sessions. Most of you berating me would’ve said I was crazy if I said we’d hit $686 in that time 10 days ago. Goes both ways
