Been tracking gamma exposure levels and posting them before the bell. Wanted to share Friday's results because they were pretty clean.

Friday 5/22:

Before open I had SPY king at $746, QQQ at $718, NVDA at $215, TSLA at $425, META at $610, GOOGL at $382.

By close — SPY closed at $745.64 right at king, QQQ at $717.54, TSLA at $426.01, META pinned at $610.26, GOOGL at $382.97. All within pennies of the pre-market levels.

8 out of 11 held at king. The other 3 stayed in range. Not bad for levels posted before 9:30 AM.

For anyone not familiar — GEX levels show where market makers are concentrated with their hedging. Price tends to gravitate toward the king level and bounce between floor and ceiling. It's not magic, it's just dealer positioning math.

Curious if anyone else here uses GEX in their trading. Happy to answer questions.
