$SPCX positive gamma increased above as traders mined the rich call skew. This should translate into upsdie resistance particularly into the darkest areas of the map.
Not the downside strikes had negative gamma, but that has flipped as traders went from long puts to short.
$SPCX traders have been selling calls (generating blue on the map above) and buying puts (generating red below).
This gives dealers positive gamma above (resistance >=120) and negative gamma below (potential selling pressure into 90).

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 President Trump says "crypto is a big deal."
"I see more and more where people are paying with Bitcoin. They don't even know about cash anymore."
