SPY (761.85) opens on top of the largest strike on the board: 762 holds +$361M, 0.15 above spot, and it is wrapped by a positive stack. The next biggest strikes are 764 (+$312M), 770 (+$311M), 766 (+$278M), 763 and 765 (+$274M each), 760 (+$263M), 767 (+$239M), 768 (+$210M) and 769 (+$173M). Together 760–770 sums +$2,775M of a chain total of +$3,602M: +$3,084M above spot and +$518M below. The feed returns a flip at 746.23, 15.62 (2.05%) under spot and well outside the expected-move floor.

Yesterday's map reversed completely. The brief at the open was −$615M with a −$302M put wall at 770; today 770 is +$311M, the sign has flipped on the whole 760–770 stretch, and the old 775 call wall (+$187M) is +$78M. Implied vol (ATM) is 18, from 19, and the expected move is ±0.7% (±$5.16, or 756.69–767.01), so 760 through 766 are all inside it, with 767 right at its top edge and 770 2.99 beyond it.

There is no usable put wall or max pain today. Only 38 strikes in the chain are negative and they sum to just −$21M, none within 30 points of spot, so the feed's "put wall" (671) and "max pain" (675) are far-out artifacts and are left out of the tiles below. Under 760 the weight thins quickly: 750–759 sums +$169M, with 759 (+$46M) the largest. This feed carries only the 0DTE chain (one expiry, 250 contracts), so open interest further out is not in these numbers.
