Gamma Exposure represents the sensitivity of an option's delta to changes in the underlying price. Market makers hedge their gamma exposure, creating support/resistance at high GEX strikes.
Key Levels:
- Call Wall: Strike with highest positive GEX (resistance)
- Put Wall: Strike with the largest put GEX, shown as the deepest negative bar (support)
- Gamma Flip: Where total GEX changes from negative to positive
Positive GEX: Market makers sell into rallies, buy into dips (stabilizing).
Negative GEX: Market makers buy into rallies, sell into dips (amplifying moves).

Understanding AAPL gamma exposure
AAPL is one of the most systematically traded options markets anywhere: covered-call funds, buy-write ETFs, and premium sellers give it a persistent supply of call gamma, which is why AAPL spends so much time in positive-gamma, low-volatility regimes. Its GEX profile tends to be stable, with a well-defined call wall that caps rallies during quiet periods and a put wall that steps up steadily during uptrends.
That stability makes regime breaks informative. When AAPL's net gamma flips negative - typically around earnings, product-cycle disappointments, or broad tech selloffs - the stock's usually muted intraday ranges expand quickly. AAPL pinning behavior into monthly OPEX is among the most reliable of any mega-cap, a product of its enormous, evenly distributed open interest.

AAPL GEX FAQ
What is AAPL GEX (gamma exposure)?
AAPL GEX measures the aggregate gamma that options market makers carry across all AAPL strikes and expirations. When AAPL GEX is positive, dealer hedging dampens price moves (selling rallies, buying dips); when it is negative, hedging amplifies moves. It is calculated from open interest and each contract's gamma across the Apple Inc. options chain.
What is the AAPL call wall and put wall?
The AAPL call wall is the strike with the largest positive gamma exposure and often acts as resistance, while the AAPL put wall is the strike with the largest negative gamma exposure and often acts as support. As of the latest snapshot, the call wall is at $310, the put wall is at $310, the gamma flip level is near $309.26.
What is the AAPL gamma flip level?
The AAPL gamma flip (zero-gamma) level is the price where net dealer gamma crosses from positive to negative. Above it, market-maker hedging tends to suppress AAPL volatility; below it, the same hedging amplifies moves in both directions. The latest computed flip level is near $309.26.
