What the positioning says

●Call wall at $90 (4k contracts), 15% above spot — the upside strike the crowd is already parked on; often acts as near-term resistance.
●Put wall at $70 (1k contracts), 11% below spot — the hedge floor; often acts as support.
●Deep-OTM call OI is 5.8× deep-OTM put OI — speculative upside positioning dominates the tails.
●30-day ATM implied volatility is 20% — calm pricing; option premium is cheap.
