Where dealer gamma sat in BZFD’s option chain after the close on 2026-09-01, aggregated from the full chain. This is a once-a-day snapshot, not a live read — 52 contracts.

Net gamma (per 1% move): $8,414.513
Call wall: 1.50
Spot at capture: 1.19

Computed from the listed option chain by my own aggregation, once, after the close — it describes where positioning sat that evening and does not update through the next session. The version that rebuilds per strike while the market is open is the intraday gamma product. Not investment advice.
