SPOTGAMMA IN ACTION

Everyone else sees price.
SpotGamma shows you what’s controlling it.

While price shows you what happened, The SpotGamma TRACE Heatmap reveals S&P 500 support and resistance levels so you can see where moves are likely to stall, break, or reverse — before price gets there.

The Failed Breakout

Price pushes higher and it looks like the move will continue — but without TRACE, you won't know if options flows are supporting the move or preparing for a reversal.

The Move You Missed

By the time price confirms direction, momentum is already underway. TRACE reveals positioning as it builds — helping you stay aligned with the flows in real-time so you avoid chasing moves late.

The Sudden Reversal

Price appears stable — until volatility expands and the markets change direction. TRACE highlights changes in gamma and positioning so you can better prepare for which moves are likely to extend or reverse.

ES Calls Surge 406% as SpotGamma Identifies the 6830 Gamma Magnet Before the Move

By combining TRACE, HIRO, and key levels, pro trader and SpotGamma contributor Doug Pless leveraged a defined-risk entry, a quantified target, and a clear exit signal — trading a 0DTE ES call option for over 400% profit.

OUR MOST LOYAL CUSTOMERS SAY:

"Personal thank you from me to you and your team. This update is just incredible. I am not misusing words when I say this is a game changer on my end. As a scalper, this is HUGE!"
