Spot $26.13 highlighted. The $25 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 27,992). Near-dated expiry in the mix, so OI is noisier.

Why did the score drop from +43 to +28 this week?
FlowDesk
It was mostly one day. The composite was +49.5 on 7 Oct, then fell to +27.7 on 8 Oct as the price moved from $25.76 to $26.36. It’s at +27.8 now.+19.3 from volume and +8.6 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.
