Spot $220.21 highlighted. The $230 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 3,665). Near-dated expiry in the mix, so OI is noisier.

Why did the score drop from +6 to −20 this week?
FlowDesk
It was mostly one day. The composite was +6.4 on 7 Oct, then fell to −19.6 on 8 Oct as the price moved from $218.29 to $218.29. It’s at −20.0 now. Today’s −20.0 breaks down as −19.2 from volume and −0.9 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.
