Spot $60.19 highlighted. The $60 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 23,326). Near-dated expiry in the mix, so OI is noisier.

Why did the score rise from +57 to +61 this week?
FlowDesk
It was mostly one day. The composite was +57.1 on 2 Oct, then rose to +68.4 on 3 Oct as the price moved from $57.84 to $58.08. It’s at +61.0 now. Today’s +61.0 breaks down as +39.3 from volume and +21.7 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.
