How we compute this
Gamma exposure aggregates the gamma of open options positions, weighted by open interest and the dealer’s likely hedging side. We sum net gamma across strikes for the index-level figure; the gamma flip is where that aggregate crosses zero. Positive totals mean dealer hedging leans against moves (dampening); negative totals mean it leans with them (amplifying).
Per strike we show net dealer gamma and classify walls: heavy positive-gamma strikes above spot tend to act as resistance or pins; heavy negative-gamma strikes are where moves accelerate. PCR (put-call ratio) on open interest frames directional positioning; IV trend frames how rich premiums are.

Frequently asked
What is gamma exposure (GEX)?
Gamma exposure is the aggregate sensitivity of options dealers' hedges to a move in the underlying. When dealers are net long gamma (positive GEX) their hedging leans against price — buying dips, selling rallies — which dampens moves. When net short gamma (negative GEX), they hedge with the move and amplify it.
What do positive and negative gamma mean for Nifty?
Positive-gamma regimes are historically associated with range-bound, mean-reverting sessions because dealer hedging absorbs moves. Negative-gamma regimes are associated with trending, higher-volatility sessions because hedging accelerates moves. This is context, not a signal.
What is a gamma flip?
The gamma flip is the price where aggregate dealer gamma crosses from positive to negative. Above it the tape tends to be dampened; below it, amplified. A triggered flip means the regime is fragile.
