Spot $39.89 highlighted. The $40 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 35,394). Near-dated expiry in the mix, so OI is noisier.

One rule everywhere: a move of 0.05% or less is flat, and flat is not a hit. That is the same rule Proof uses; 305 of these 710 calls were flat.

Ask about IONQ
Why did the score drop from +29 to −3 this week?
It was mostly one day. The composite was +28.0 on 7 Oct, then fell to +1.0 on 9 Oct as the price moved from $43.29 to $43.29. It’s at −3.1 now.

Today’s −3.1 breaks down as −2.9 from volume and −0.2 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.
