Gamma Flip $165 -3% below flip
Call Wall $160 active wall · 0.786 fib confluence
spot $159.99

Regime balanced · no clear edge from positioning.

Each wall is the strike carrying the heaviest open interest within 15% of price, call above as resistance, put below as support, pooled across all listed expirations. It is a structural positioning level, not a single expiry pin. Max pain is tracked separately.

The Read

$NVS is in short gamma at heat 42, which means dealer hedging amplifies moves rather than dampening them. The $170 call wall is untested yesterday, while the $145 put has held 100% of tests, showing dealers are defending this level. Spot sits 5.5% below the $161.69 flip, so a push up could see more upside momentum.
