The story
- 07:17 premarket post: overnight low near 7655, support off the dominant positive gamma strike, upper boundary 7680. PCE day.
- 11:00 — the lid: 7680 +$9.2B against -$10.6B at 7685.
- 12:44 — low 7657.41, 2.41 above 7655, which had grown to +$5.0B, nearly all puts sold.
- Then what: back to 7680 by 14:00. Only when 0DTE net gamma went negative after 15:00 did price clear it, to 7690.73.
