Technical Indicators

Quick-reference for reading the values below. Indicators combine to confirm a view — no single one is a trade signal on its own.

Trend Indicators
  • SMA 20 / 50 / 200 — price above = uptrend, below = downtrend. SMA 50 crossing SMA 200 is the golden/death cross.
  • EMA 12 / 26 — faster-reacting averages; 12 above 26 is short-term bullish.
  • MACD — bullish when MACD > signal (green badge), bearish when below. Divergence from price often precedes reversals.
  • ADX (14) — trend strength regardless of direction. <20 range, 20–25 weak trend, 25–50 trend, >50 strong trend.
  • +DI / −DI — +DI > −DI favors bulls; the reverse favors bears. Read alongside ADX.
Momentum Oscillators
  • RSI (14) — <30 oversold, >70 overbought. 40–60 is neutral; trending names can stay extreme.
  • Stochastic %K / %D — <20 oversold, >80 overbought. %K crossing %D is an early momentum signal.
  • Williams %R — inverted scale: <−80 oversold, >−20 overbought.

Oscillators work best in range-bound markets; in strong trends they give premature reversal signals.

Volume & Volatility
  • Bollinger Bands — price at upper band = overbought, lower = oversold. Narrow bands (squeeze) often precede expansion.
  • OBV — cumulative volume; rising OBV confirms uptrend, falling OBV confirms downtrend. Divergence from price is a warning.
  • Vol SMA 20 / Vol ROC — today's volume vs. 20-day average. Positive ROC with price move = conviction.
  • ATR / True Range — average daily $ move; sizing and stop-loss reference.
  • HV 20 / 30 / 60 — realized (historical) volatility. Compare to IV on the options cards: IV > HV = rich premium.

Confluence matters: trend + momentum + volume agreeing carries far more weight than any single indicator. For how these feed the spread scanner score, see the algorithm docs →

AI Analysis

Here is my comprehensive stock analysis report:

Executive Summary

Overall assessment: BEARISH (Confidence level: 6/10)

Key drivers: High volatility, recent overbought conditions, negative news sentiment Primary risks: Downside risk due to high beta and overbought RSI

2-3 sentence investment thesis: GDX is likely to experience a pullback or consolidation phase as the stock has reached an overbought level. Despite the positive news sentiment, the technical indicators suggest that the upward momentum may be losing steam.

Recent news sentiment impact: The recent news headlines have been generally positive, but this does not necessarily align with the technical signals, which indicate a potential pullback.

Technical Analysis

Trend Direction: Short-term: BEARISH (RSI overbought), Medium-term: NEUTRAL (SMA 20 and SMA 50 in decline), Long-term: BULLISH (SMA 200 rising)

Support/Resistance Levels: Key price levels from moving averages: - Upper resistance: $103.40 (Bollinger Bands upper band) - Middle support: $85.83 (SMA 20) - Lower support: $68.26 (SMA 200 lower band)

Momentum Signals: + RSI interpretation: OVERBOUGHT (>70), potential sell signal + MACD signal: BULLISH (crossing above signal line), but with a warning sign from the histogram + Bollinger Bands position: NEUTRAL (price touching upper band) - Volume Analysis: Volume trends indicate a potential reversal

News & Sentiment Analysis

Recent Headlines Summary: Positive news headlines have focused on gold miners and ETFs, with some articles highlighting potential upside in the sector.

Sentiment Assessment: Aggregate sentiment is POSITIVE, but this does not necessarily align with the technical signals.

Catalyst Identification: No immediate catalysts are apparent, but upcoming earnings reports may influence the stock's performance.

Market Narrative: The positive news headlines have driven the recent price increase, but the technical indicators suggest that the upward momentum may be losing steam.

Risk & Volatility Assessment

Beta Interpretation: High risk (beta >1.74), indicating that GDX moves more than the market.

Volatility Regime: Current volatility is HIGH (HV20 54.5%, HV30 51.6%), which is consistent with the beta value.

Options Market Signals: IV rank is MEDIUM (35.7%), and options activity suggests a BULLISH sentiment.

Downside Protection: Support levels include SMA 20 ($85.83) and lower band of the Bollinger Bands ($68.26).

Market Context & Positioning

Sector Performance: GDX has outperformed the broader market, but this may not continue given the overbought conditions.

Institutional Activity: Institutional interest is evident from the options activity, with a focus on calls.

Correlation Analysis: GDX has a moderate correlation (0.45) with the SPY index.

Relative Valuation: GDX is trading near the upper end of its recent range, which may indicate a potential pullback or consolidation phase.

Key Levels & Action Items

Critical Price Levels: Support/resistance levels include SMA 20 ($85.83), middle band of the Bollinger Bands ($92.13), and lower band ($68.26).

Breakout/Breakdown Levels: A break below $85.83 or above $103.40 could trigger significant moves.

Time-Sensitive Catalysts: No immediate catalysts are apparent, but upcoming earnings reports may influence the stock's performance.

Risk Management: Consider setting a stop-loss level around $95-96 to manage potential losses if the stock experiences a pullback.

Spread Scanner

Each spread is ranked by a composite score built in three stages. Full documentation →

Stage 1 — Base Score

score = P(profit) × (credit / spread_width)
P(profit) from short leg delta (1 − |delta|), penalised above 85%. Credit uses mid-price to handle illiquid chains fairly.
Calendars: the long leg is valued at the short leg’s expiration (Black-Scholes at its current IV) across the range of prices the short leg’s IV implies, giving the best-case profit (R/R = that over the debit) and P(profit).

Stage 2 — Skew Adjustment (±25% cap)

RR and BF (30-delta) from the persisted per-symbol skew snapshot — wing strikes picked by real greeks.delta, not a moneyness proxy. Put skew boosts bull puts, penalises bear calls. High butterfly boosts iron condors. Calendars are skew-neutral.

Stage 3 — Technical Overlay (±50% cap, 5 groups)
Group 1 · Directional Bias (±0.25)
  • RSI <40 bullish / >60 bearish
  • MACD crossover + histogram trend
  • Price vs SMA 50 & SMA 200
Group 2 · Momentum (±0.10)
  • Stochastic %K <20 / >80
  • Williams %R <−80 / >−20
Group 3 · Volatility (up to −0.25 / +0.15)
  • Blended ATR + straddle expected-move penalty
  • Bollinger Band signal (+ counter-trend penalty)
  • BB width — vol contraction boost for ICs
Group 4 · IV Regime (±0.15)
  • IV rank ≥ 75 → strong boost for credit spreads
  • IV rank < 25 → penalty (selling cheap vol)
Group 5 · Liquidity (penalty up to −0.10)
  • Min open interest across all legs
  • OI < 100 → −0.10 · OI < 500 → −0.05

score = base_score × skew_multiplier × tech_multiplier
Both multipliers are shown per spread. Beta is informational only — ATR already captures realized vol. Full algorithm documentation →

Dealer Positioning
TYPICAL γ

Estimated net dealer gamma is at the 78th percentile of this name's own daily history, within its typical range. This describes current positioning; it is not a forecast or a trading signal.

vs own history
GEX tilt
+0.32
OI-weighted, today
Vanna tilt
+0.50
δ-sensitivity to IV
Charm tilt
-0.21
δ-decay vs time
Vanna tilt +0.50: the estimated dealer exposure leans positive, so the modeled hedge would shift noticeably if implied volatility changed.

Net dealer gamma is an estimate of the aggregate gamma held by options market makers across this name's option chain, weighted by open interest. Dealer positions aren't public, so it uses a standard simplifying assumption: dealers are treated as long the calls and short the puts that are open. Actual dealer books can differ.

Gamma percentile ranks today's estimate against this name's own daily history, from 0% (the lowest reading on record) to 100% (the highest). Raw gamma scales with how much open interest a chain carries, so it isn't comparable across names; the percentile is. The badge marks the bottom 20% as low and the top 20% as high.

Tilts run from −1 to +1 and show how lopsided the estimated dealer exposure is. GEX tilt compares call gamma with put gamma. Vanna tilt describes how the hedge would shift if implied volatility changed, and charm tilt how it would shift with the passage of time.

This card describes estimated positioning and where it sits historically. It is not a forecast of price direction or volatility and not a trading signal. Market-wide view: Dealer positioning screener.

Skew (Wing IV − ATM IV)
DTE:
Wing Δ:
Metric:
Wing vs ATM
IV(put wing) − IV(ATM), in vol points

How much the OTM put trades above (or below) the at-the-money strike. Measures the height of the put-side tail relative to ATM — i.e. how expensive crash insurance is on this name.

  • Positive (typical) — wing IV > ATM IV. Standard equity put skew: portfolios bid up crash protection, so OTM puts trade richer than ATM.
  • Near zero or negative (unusual) — wing IV ≤ ATM IV. Flat or inverted put side. Common when there's no fear demand, in tightly mean-reverting names, or right after an earnings catalyst clears.
  • Percentile vs own 3-yr history: high = wings rich (good time to sell wing premium); low = wings cheap (good time to buy protection).
  • Not directional — high or low wings don't predict up or down moves. It's a price tag on tail insurance, not a forecast.
Risk Reversal
IV(call wing) − IV(put wing), equal delta on each side

Which side of the smile is the market paying up for? Measures the tilt of the surface — call skew vs put skew at matched deltas.

  • Negative (typical) — puts richer than calls. Standard equity behavior: hedging demand makes puts carry a premium. Most large-caps sit in the −1 to −5 vol-point range.
  • Strongly negative (< −5 pts) — heavy downside hedging, elevated fear, or an upcoming catalyst (earnings, FDA, macro event). Worth flagging.
  • Positive — calls richer than puts. Unusual for equities; signals bullish momentum, short-squeeze positioning, or takeover/M&A speculation.
  • Near zero — symmetric surface. Market sees roughly equal up/down risk. Rare for large-caps; more common in commodities and FX.
Reading them together

Wing-vs-ATM tells you how expensive the tails are. Risk Reversal tells you which side is favored. Combined:

  • High wing percentile + deeply negative RR → strong put bid; stress or major event priced in. Owning protection costs a premium; selling put premium is dangerous.
  • Low wing percentile + near-zero RR → complacency; insurance cheap and balanced. Good environment to add cheap downside hedges.
  • Positive RR + elevated wings → call-side fear-of-missing-out; common in squeeze setups. Upside calls expensive, downside puts not bid.

ATM 43.1% / Wing 45.9%
30 DTE / 10d 81%
+5.5 pts EXTREME
ATM 45.2% / Wing 50.7%

Percentile is the rank of today's reading within ~3 years of this symbol's own history. High percentile = wings are rich relative to history; not a directional signal. Skew is read off the chain in real time, not from CBOE SKEW.

Short Interest & Float

Regulatory short-interest reports publish on a bi-weekly settlement cadence; short-volume is reported daily by the trade-reporting facilities. Float is derived from insider-ownership filings.

Metric definitions
  • Short Interest — total shares currently sold short as of the settlement date. Lags real time by ~8 business days.
  • SI % of Float — short interest / free float. The key crowding metric.
  • Days to Cover — short interest / avg daily volume. How many full trading days it would take shorts to buy back. High DTC + catalyst = squeeze fuel.
  • Short Vol Ratio — today's short-sale volume / total volume. Intraday selling pressure proxy (not the same as short interest).
  • Free Float — shares available for public trading (total shares minus insider / restricted).
  • Float % — free float / shares outstanding. <50% = tightly held, more prone to squeezes.
How to read the signals
  • SI % of Float < 5% — typical, no particular signal.
  • 5–15% — elevated; watch for catalysts (earnings, guidance, macro).
  • 15–30% — heavily shorted; tight-float names in this range have produced notable squeezes historically.
  • >30% — extreme; borrow is likely expensive and squeeze risk is material.
  • Days to Cover > 5 combined with high SI% amplifies squeeze potential.
History chart
  • Trend matters more than level. Rapidly rising short interest often precedes negative catalysts or heavy hedging.
  • A sudden drop in SI after a rally may indicate a squeeze in progress.

Short interest is reported mid-month and end-of-month; short volume is daily.
