CAT
Caterpillar Inc.Prices and gamma are point-in-time snapshots taken at the time shown. Dealer positioning is an assumption, not an observable: open interest shows that a contract exists, never which side a dealer holds. How dealer gamma is computed.

CAT DEALER GAMMA BY STRIKE
Part of the SquawkFlow GEX Calculator: gamma by strike for any US stock. Compare with SPX GEX.
Net gamma exposure at each strike near CAT'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 CAT option chain, not the whole book: the 30 strikes nearest spot out of 99 seen, 1,440 contract rows spanning 18 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.
