OPTIONS GAMMA EXPOSURE
Market Maker Hedging & Intraday Regimes
GEX Quickstart Manual (2026.10 Edition)
The definitive desk reference for mapping dealer gamma inventory. Deconstruct market maker delta-hedging triggers and key strike levels before the opening bell.
Includes delivery of the 16-page guide directly to your email, interactive desk reader, and free terminal access.
What You Will Master in 20 Minutes
Four practical modules designed to eliminate guesswork and ground your intraday trades in actual options inventory physics.
The Net Gamma Equation & Dealer Hedging Flow
Understand the mathematical mechanics behind market maker inventory rebalancing. Learn why options dealers must aggressively buy market dips or sell market rallies depending on net gamma positioning.
The Two Market Regimes: Compression vs Expansion
Differentiate between the Long Gamma regime (volatility suppression, mean reversion, tight ranges) and the Short Gamma regime (volatility expansion, cascade trends, sharp momentum).
The Key Structural Levels on the Strike Ladder
Learn how to interpret Call Walls (absolute structural ceiling), Put Walls (structural floor and support), and the Zero Flip line (the inflection point separating stability from acceleration).
The 10-Minute Pre-Market Operating Routine
Execute an actionable pre-market checklist before the opening bell. Map overnight dealer shifts, translate index strikes to futures/CFD contracts, and establish intraday boundaries.
Engineered for Serious Traders
Whether you trade cash index options or front-month futures contracts, gamma exposure provides the structural framework you need.
Index Scalpers (SPX, SPY, QQQ)
Pinpoint intraday inflection points and target high-probability reversal boundaries rather than chasing lagging moving averages.
Futures Day Traders (ES, NQ)
Translate dealer option walls into precise futures price levels to identify institutional liquidity pockets and stop runs.
0DTE & Flow Traders
Understand late-day pinning mechanics, accelerated gamma decay, and intraday volatility spikes around strike clusters.
Funded & Prop Firm Traders
Protect daily loss limits by avoiding trades inside high-friction compression regimes and aligning entries with structural momentum.
Questions & Operational Details
Is the GEX Quickstart Manual completely free?
Yes. The Quickstart Manual is provided 100% free with instant digital download. No credit card or billing information is ever required.
How is this manual different from the 64-page Master Playbook?
The Quickstart Manual is a focused 16-page operational introduction designed to be studied in 20 minutes. The 64-page Master Playbook is our comprehensive execution blueprint containing 17 chapters, setup cards (A/B/C), dealer physics, and loss-breaker rules.
Can I apply these concepts to index futures (ES, NQ) and CFD contracts?
Yes. Market maker hedging flows derived from SPX and NDX options directly impact cash indices and futures markets. The manual explains how to translate options strike levels into index equivalents.
How soon can I access the manual after entering my email?
Delivery is instantaneous. We immediately dispatch the 16-page manual as a PDF attached directly to your email inbox so you can save and study it offline anytime.
