Where the positions sit calls traded strike puts traded
Spot $3.67 highlighted. The $5 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 512). Near-dated expiry in the mix, so OI is noisier.

FlowDesk
The composite has held within 2.3 points of +98.6 across the last 8 sessions.+62.0 from volume and +36.6 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.
