Where the positions sit No per-strike chain is stored for this name yet, so we can’t show where the positions sit. The totals above still come from today’s chain.
Spot $28.55. The $30 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 28,146). 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; 240 of these 240 calls were flat.

The composite has held within 0.5 points of +36.6 across the last 8 sessions.+34.8 from volume and +1.8 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.
