NQPOSITIVE
NDX's premarket resistance break carried through the open and flipped its own dealer book from negative to positive gamma in a clean step-change; positive gamma now dampens further momentum, and spot is locally bracketed by a real antimagnet/magnet pair, favoring consolidation over the continuation case flagged premarket.
NDX flipped from negative to positive 0DTE gamma at the open (-$110.3M to +$697.8M), a clean step-change right at 13:33-13:38Z; spot now sits between a real vanna antimagnet just below (NQ 29860.75) and a real magnet just above (NQ 29901.85) — fade extremes inside that bracket and watch the dominant confluence at NQ 29825-29830 for a deeper pullback level.

Dealer directional forces · next sessionFlipped from negative to positive 0DTE gamma in a clean step at the cash open (13:33-13:38Z), 94% coverage, corroborated across the full 0-7DTE heatmap curve (all columns now positive).
Small and negative post-open (was +484 flat all premarket) — a modest destabilizing shift at the aggregate level, but spot is locally bracketed by a real antimagnet (29861) below and magnet (29902) above.
Surged ~70x at the same open step-change (was flat ~1,350-1,368 for hours premarket, now running 68K-107K) — real, coverage-consistent, not noise.
Small and negative, in line with premarket direction but larger magnitude post-open.
Down from premarket's 4.69M as the vol backdrop settled slightly (VIX 17.09-17.53 range this morning vs 17 now).

Quality-aware language- MCP-native individual stock Greek scans are unavailable. If component zones are attached, they come from the system-level Polygon overlay path and remain secondary/provisional to native index and MCP levels.
- The overlay scan was partial because the runtime budget was hit or a source stage degraded. Treat absent confirmations as unknown, not bearish or bullish evidence.
