GEX Levels
Understand and use Gamma Exposure on NQ Futures and US100 CFD.
What is Gamma Exposure (GEX)?
Gamma Exposure (GEX) measures options market makers' positioning on an index. It helps identify the price zones where their hedging activity will accelerate or slow down market moves.
Why GEX levels matter
GEX levels often act as price magnets or barriers. They help anticipate where volatility may accelerate or calm down, and adjust the daily trading plan accordingly.
GEX Supports
Levels where market maker hedging tends to slow down declines, creating potential support on NQ Futures and US100 CFD.
GEX Resistances
Levels where market maker hedging tends to slow down rallies, creating potential resistance.
Reversal zones
Some major GEX levels correspond to zones where the market statistically tends to reverse, especially when reached with weak momentum.
Volatility zones
When the market moves away from positive gamma zones, volatility tends to increase; conversely, it generally contracts near high gamma levels.
How we use GEX levels
We combine GEX levels with market context analysis and LuxAlgo Premium to confirm a bias, identify zones of interest and build the daily trading plan.
Why we wait for a major GEX level to be reached
Looking for a position before a major GEX level has been tested increases the risk of a false move. We prefer to wait for the price reaction at these levels before confirming an entry, as part of a strict risk management approach.
