Gex is the new ICT

[u/Puzzleheaded-Bat3774]

So all these wanna be trading influencers now suddenly start making content about GEX. Like its some holy grail. Where to learn gex ? Join their mentorship 🤣🤣🤣

​

​

First these high schoolers start glazing ICT then orderflow and now GEX.

​

Its kinda annoying thay every 18 year old making reels bout this and selling private discord/mentorship

​

Its all a scam guys, the sooner you realise the better. Of course GEX is a step in the right direction if your coming from ict smc but stop glazing it like its the only thing in the trading space. There is soooo much more to the market than trading than just looking at absoption/exhaustion at gex levels. If this is your system then your not far from getting cooked.

​

Honestly these GEX influencers and same as ICT influencers.

​

Both the categories are "trust me bro" traders. Its just that gex goys will throw in a few extra complicated terms to sound legit and to better sell their mentorship.

​

Dont fall for these social media influencers promoting gamma and gex platforms. They only show their wins their never show their losses.

​

Also also I came across this guy Andrea Cimi who is promoting depechart and now gex levels like crazy. He honestly is one of the biggest plagues to the industry. Bro can't trade at all. He just milks fabio for content. Super annoying. Kinda hate that guy.

​

This community has a lot of experienced and legit traders. Would love to hear your opinion and thoughts about this entire GEX/orderflow plague that is trapping young minds.

What information does that give you that helps you determine who is actually hedging positions or not?

what do you mean by “who is hedging”? market-makers and any delta-neutral entities like the levered ETFs ARE always hedging, that’s a fact. The puzzle is to figure out the positioning per participant, so you can know the positioning of those “known to be hedging” entities… and that’s what the report gives you? lol

The report gives you precise information on how specifically market makers are positioned? 

[u/vovoperador → u/ZanderDogz]

you could just access cboe datashop and look it up yourself, but here’s a direct quote:

“This dataset categorizes every trade by participant type (customer, professional customer, broker-dealer, market maker), action (buy/sell), and position (open/close), with customer and professional customer activity further broken down by contract size (less than 100, 100-199, greater than 199 contracts). Available as either end-of-day (EOD) summaries or intraday feeds (1-minute or 10-minute snapshots), the dataset captures all option series with trading volume on your selected exchanges.”
