Auto-note //Holding above zero-gamma (20.75) — dealer hedging dampens moves above it. The 21.00 call wall is the nearest-expiry ceiling heuristic; 21.00 is the floor. Options price ±2.0% into Sep 18. Dark-pool short volume at 49% and easing vs its 20-day.

Composed from the nightly pipelines — every panel degrades independently when its dataset is missing. Heuristics labeled as heuristics; not investment advice.
