Spot $653.09 highlighted. The $750 strike holds the most open interest (the “wall”, 3,811). Near-dated expiry in the mix, so OI is noisier.

Why did the score rise from −23 to +15 this week?
FlowDesk
It was mostly one day. The composite was −15.0 on 6 Oct, then rose to +11.7 on 8 Oct as the price moved from $654.80 to $676.76. It’s at +15.4 now. Today’s +15.4 breaks down as +13.2 from volume and +2.2 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.
