STLA closing levels — October 26, 2026. Drawn to scale.

STLA's closing options book on October 26, 2026 carried −$149K of net dealer gamma spread across 5 expirations and 26 contracts. The sign is negative, so hedging runs with the move rather than against it.

STLA's apex — the strike carrying the most gamma in absolute terms — is 4.5, the same strike as its put wall. When those stack on one level the book is concentrated rather than spread, and that single strike is doing most of the work.

Across the last 10 recorded sessions its put wall has not moved off 4.5 once. Walls that stay put and walls that migrate every session are different objects.

What STLA's walls are — and aren't

STLA's book has been recorded on 87 sessions. Its average daily range over that stretch was 3.13% of price. Walls are where dealer hedging is heaviest — positive gamma absorbs moves, negative gamma amplifies them. They are not bounce points, and across our grading they contained price no better than a same-width band around the prior close.
