Spot $433.96 highlighted. The $390 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 1,860). Near-dated expiry in the mix, so OI is noisier.

Why did the score rise from −31 to −11 this week?
FlowDesk
It was mostly one day. The composite was −35.6 on 2 Oct, then rose to +27.3 on 3 Oct as the price moved from $442.45 to $454.35. It’s at −10.6 now. Today’s −10.6 breaks down as −11.6 from volume and +1.0 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.
