Spot $46.18 highlighted. The $50 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 9,532). 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; 159 of these 295 calls were flat.

Ask about TFC
Why did the score drop from −18 to −38 this week?
It was mostly one day. The composite was +0.3 on 8 Oct, then fell to −37.6 on 9 Oct as the price moved from $45.58 to $46.18. It’s at −37.6 now.

Today’s −37.6 breaks down as −48.3 from volume and +10.7 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.
