Spot $29.08 highlighted. The $35 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 21,330). 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; 142 of these 993 calls were flat.

Ask about NWSA
Why did the score drop from +56 to +39 this week?
It was mostly one day. The composite was +56.3 on 1 Oct, then fell to +15.0 on 2 Oct as the price moved from $28.65 to $28.62. It’s at +38.7 now.

Today’s +38.7 breaks down as +3.0 from volume and +35.7 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.
