## The close or captured price

SPX: last captured price 7,765.33 on 2026-10-08.

The last captured price was 47.45 points above the morning gamma flip at 7,717.88.

Call wall at 7,900.00 was untouched. The closest approach on file was 102.21 points.

Put wall at 7,500.00 was untouched. The closest approach on file was 231.26 points.

Gamma flip at 7,717.88 was approached but not touched, inside the 54.2 basis points approach band. The closest approach on file was 13.38 points.

The last captured price is the last capture on file at 16:04 ET, not a settled close, so it can differ from the figure the exchange settles.

Verdicts resolve against the high and low accumulated by the data vendor in the recorded range, not against the 30-minute snapshot grid. A level within that range counts as touched, including between snapshots; this does not establish the time or sequence of a touch.

## The morning levels against the session

Levels published for the 2026-10-08 session, computed from open interest settled 2026-10-07. They are a settlement figure for the session, not a reading taken during it. The call wall, the put wall and the gamma flip are computed once in the morning from open interest that settled on an earlier date. They are dated readings, not a continuous feed, and they do not update through the session.

Morning gamma flip 7,717.88, regime positive.

| Level | Morning value | Verdict | Closest approach, points | Session at open |

| Put wall | 7,500.00 | Untouched | 231.26 | above this level |
| Gamma flip | 7,717.88 | Approached | 13.38 | above this level |

## What this record is measured from

13 of 14 30-minute snapshots were captured, 10:00 to 16:00 ET. The 1 missing snapshot is a gap in the record, not a reading of the tape.

The captures on file run from 10:00 to 16:00 ET.

This record is incomplete: 1 of 14 snapshots are missing. What the log below shows is the captures that exist, not a full account of the session, and a stretch with no entry is a gap in the record rather than an observation about the market.

## Event log, secondary detail

Snapshot event log only: Sampled on a 30-minute grid; an intra-sample touch is invisible to this rule. This log coverage does not determine the source of the verdict range.

The log below is secondary detail. It is one line per capture on the 30-minute grid, kept so a reading above can be traced back to the captures it came from.

Event rows carry the gamma model's reference price for each 30-minute snapshot. It is not the vendor's session close and the two can differ by a few points.

This log holds 4 entries from 13 of 14 snapshots. A stretch with no entry is a place this record holds no capture, not a place where the market stood still.
