Spot $48.93 highlighted. The $57.50 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 14,096). Near-dated expiry in the mix, so OI is noisier.

Why did the score rise from +45 to +50 this week?
FlowDesk
It was mostly one day. The composite was +18.0 on 7 Oct, then rose to +49.3 on 8 Oct as the price moved from $49.05 to $47.96. It’s at +50.0 now.+25.2 from volume and +24.8 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.
