3 of today's plays fire on it
70% win rate73 tracked trades$74K shadow P&L

When dealers flip from short-gamma to long-gamma, their hedging flow stops fighting the move and starts amplifying it — a directional tailwind. This is the same signal the shadow book trades; the plays below tagged GEX_FLIP inherit this record.

Today's plays — 7, ranked by conviction

One list, highest-conviction first. Each card opens to its Final Read: verdict, the exact order to place, signal track record, plain-English fundamentals, and a 7-gate checklist.

Why this play
Stock +65% in 30d, RSI 77 (overbought), red today — mean-reversion setup. Suggested $353 put expiring 2026-07-06 (35 DTE). Smaller size — parabolic shorts can extend further than logic suggests.
