Today's Levels

Where dealer gamma sits on SPY.

Every level is a link to its plain-language definition.

Net GEX+$152.2M

Total dealer gamma on SPY's chain — +$8.1B from calls, -$8.0B from puts. Negative: dealers are net short gamma, so their hedging amplifies moves instead of dampening them.

The price where net dealer gamma crosses zero — dampening above it, amplifying below it.

Call wall$770 · +$457.6M

The strike carrying the largest positive gamma. Dealer hedging into it tends to cap rallies — the level price runs into, not a ceiling that must hold.

Put wall$750 · -$790.2M

The strike carrying the largest negative gamma. Dealer hedging into it tends to cushion selloffs — the level declines run into, not a floor that must hold.

Spot & expected move$766.81

SPY reference spot for this surface (previous close $754.35). The options market's 1-day expected move is ±$8.02 (±1.05%) — roughly $758.79 to $774.83 — from 16.6% at-the-money implied volatility.

Per-Strike Summary

The largest per-strike gamma exposures in the settled data — the walls are the extremes by construction.

How To Read This

Structure, not a forecast.

As of Nov 4, 2026 4:46 PM ET, SPY trades near $766.81 in negative (short) gamma, with net dealer exposure of +$152.2M, a call wall at $770 and a put wall at $750, and the flip at $769 separating the dampening regime above from the amplifying one below.

These levels describe dealer positioning and the hedging mechanics it creates — where moves tend to get dampened, amplified, capped, or cushioned. They describe structure, not direction: a short-gamma day can rally hard, and a wall is a magnet, not a guarantee. Read them as the terrain the session trades over, never as a prediction of which way it goes.

The base under every figure is settled open interest — it settles overnight through the OCC, which is why the settled date, not the clock, is the honest freshness stamp. The full method, including the dealer-positioning assumption and where the model can be wrong, is published in the gamma exposure methodology.

FAQ

SPY GEX, asked plainly.

What is SPY's gamma flip today?

SPY's gamma flip (zero-gamma level) is about $769, from open interest settled Tuesday, November 3, 2026 (levels as of Nov 4, 2026 4:46 PM ET). Above it, dealers sit in positive gamma and their hedging dampens moves; below it, negative gamma, and hedging amplifies them.

Where are SPY's call wall and put wall today?

The call wall is $770 (+$457.6M of gamma at the strike) — the largest positive-gamma strike, where dealer hedging tends to cap rallies. The put wall is $750 (-$790.2M) — the largest negative-gamma strike, where hedging tends to cushion selloffs. Both are computed from open interest settled Tuesday, November 3, 2026 and shift as spot and positioning change.

What is SPY's net gamma exposure (GEX) today?

SPY's net dealer gamma exposure is +$152.2M — +$8.1B from calls and -$8.0B from puts — on open interest settled Tuesday, November 3, 2026 (levels as of Nov 4, 2026 4:46 PM ET). A negative total means dealers are net short gamma: their hedging buys strength and sells weakness, which amplifies moves rather than dampening them.

Is SPY in positive or negative gamma today?

Negative — SPY's current settled surface is a short-gamma one: net GEX is +$152.2M with spot at $766.81 against a gamma flip near $769. That describes dealer positioning and the hedging mechanics it creates — amplification rather than dampening — not a forecast of direction.

How current are these SPY GEX levels?

They are computed from open interest settled Tuesday, November 3, 2026 — open interest is an OCC clearing figure that settles overnight, so no vendor's GEX rests on live OI. The settled surface is rebuilt after every session (Nov 4, 2026 4:46 PM ET for this one) and this page reads that build directly. Inside the Profit Builders scanner, SPY's surface reprices against live spot roughly every 30 seconds through the session, from the same settled base.
