![The morning levels mail: the previous close, its high and low, the call wall, put wall and zero-gamma flip with their distance from the close, and the expected move](https://archive.firmtape.com/press/features/alerts/morning.4826f12a.webp)

**Why:** the levels you need before the open, in your inbox, before you open the chart. **Where:** on by default with LIVE; Account, **Mail** switches it.

## How to use it

1. Keep **Morning levels** on under Account, Mail (it is on when LIVE starts).
2. Read it at 08:45 New York time on each trading day.
3. Switch it off with one click from the mail or under Account, Mail.

## How to read it

- The levels are the previous session's, read at 15:45 ET: the book rebuilds from the open.
- The distance column is points from the close, not a target.

## What it measures

The previous session's close, high and low; the volume book's flip and walls at 15:45 ET with their distance from the close; the expected move set at the previous open; today's scheduled releases; and on Mondays the week's events with the one that moved the archive most.

## Limits

Trading days only. The same Mail pane holds **What's new**, a mail of the terminal's changes every second Monday.
