How we compute this
For every strike we compare the change in open interest against the price move to classify positioning — long buildup, short buildup, short covering or long unwinding — then count how many strike-sides fall in each bucket. That labelled read is what separates this from a raw option chain: it shows intent, not just the OI number. The call and put OI walls are the strikes carrying the heaviest interest, which tend to act as resistance and support.
PCR on open interest and volume frames directional positioning; premium flow (total call vs put premium traded) shows where money is actually going; IV trend frames how rich premiums are. This options-positioning layer is one of several Draconic reads alongside 176+ signals.
Frequently asked
What is OI buildup?
Open-interest buildup classifies how positioning is changing at each strike: long buildup (price up + OI up = new longs), short buildup (price down + OI up = new shorts), short covering (price up + OI down = shorts exiting) and long unwinding (price down + OI down = longs exiting). It shows intent, not just the raw OI number.
Does 'short buildup' mean bearish?
Only on calls. Short buildup (fresh writing) on CALLS caps upside — bearish context. But short buildup on PUTS is put-writing, which builds support — bullish context. That's why this tool splits every strike by option type instead of lumping them together: a chain can read net-constructive even when 'short buildup' is the single most common label. It is context on positioning, not a signal.
What is a call or put wall?
A call wall is a strike with very heavy call open interest that often acts as resistance; a put wall is heavy put OI that often acts as support. Price frequently gravitates between the strongest walls into expiry.
What does the put-call ratio (PCR) tell you?
PCR on open interest divides put OI by call OI. High PCR (put-heavy) reflects bearish positioning or heavy hedging; low PCR (call-heavy) reflects bullish or complacent positioning. It works best as a contrarian read at extremes, alongside buildup and premium flow.
