Part of the SquawkFlow GEX Calculator: gamma by strike for any US stock. Compare with SPX GEX.
Net gamma exposure at each strike near QQQ's spot price, signed from the dealer perspective, calls positive, puts negative. Green strikes are where hedging tends to dampen moves; red is where it tends to amplify them. Dealer positioning is an assumption rather than an observable, so treat these as a map of where hedging pressure concentrates, not a forecast.
Unit: USD of dealer gamma per 1 percent move in spot. A window of the QQQ option chain, not the whole book: the 30 strikes nearest spot out of 167 seen, 636 contract rows spanning 2 expirations. Gamma is taken as the chain publishes it per contract; nothing here is re-priced. Crossed with the open interest carried on that chain.

The gamma sign describes modeled net exposure under the assumed dealer positioning, not a forecast of volatility or direction.
The QQQ call wall is the strike at or above spot with the most call gamma in our model, currently at $710. It is computed from settled open interest under an assumed dealer positioning; it describes modeled exposure, not where price goes.
The QQQ put wall is the strike at or below spot with the most put gamma in our model, currently at $695. It is computed from settled open interest under an assumed dealer positioning; it describes modeled exposure, not where price goes.
The QQQ Flip Line is the estimated price level where net dealer gamma exposure crosses zero, currently at $700. Above the Flip Line our model puts dealers in net positive gamma; below it, in net negative gamma. The sign describes modeled exposure, not a forecast of volatility or direction.
The QQQ Swing Line is the lowest positive gamma strike between the put wall and the call wall. It marks where our modeled gamma regime changes; it is a modeled boundary, not a forecast.
