Spot $53.64 highlighted. The $55 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 299,498). Near-dated expiry in the mix, so OI is noisier.

Why did the score drop from −2 to −6 this week?
FlowDesk
It was mostly one day. The composite was −2.2 on 1 Oct, then fell to −9.9 on 2 Oct as the price moved from $54.43 to $53.73. It’s at −6.3 now.−3.1 from volume and −3.2 from open interest. I can’t split past days the same way: the stored history keeps call/put volume but not open interest for past days.
