ATM IV averages calls and puts interpolated in log strike within ±10% of the forward. Implied move approximates F × IV × √(days/365), not a forecast or guarantee. OI and volume cover instruments with available IV; incomplete totals show —. Bid/ask observations are snapshot values, not guaranteed fills. OI does not identify dealer positioning.

Direction is the taker side. Opening/closing positions, institutional intent and net capital inflow are unknown. Gross totals above include combo and block legs. Deribit API
Methodology & data quality
RV: sample standard deviation of hourly index log returns × √(365×24). Missing hours are not filled. History uses rolling windows across UTC midnight.
Mark IV differs from executable quotes. Quote coverage and spreads appear in the expiry desk below.
Flow uses taker direction; gamma is unsigned model concentration. Estimated dealer GEX is outside this scope.

Normally Tuesday positions, published Friday. Weekly changes require a report exactly seven days earlier. Net = long − short. Spreading is separate and unavailable for non-reportables. Shorts can include hedges and basis trades; these positions do not establish bearish intent or estimated dealer options inventory.

A higher IV means the option prices in more uncertainty. The curve can be skewed or irregular; it does not predict direction. Solid lines are calls, dashed lines are puts. Points connect observed mark IVs without fitting a theoretical curve.
Comparison uses the exact same expiry (08:00 UTC). Exchanges may quote different contract and settlement conventions. Mark IV is a model value, not an executable bid or ask.
25Δ RR interpolates between nearby delta observations. Deribit uses separately fetched ticker delta and mark IV near 25Δ for the selected expiry. Missing brackets or unavailable data are shown as —, never zero.
