The terminal replays the full session minute by minute: dealer gamma, vanna and charm by strike, the flip and hold levels as they moved, IV and realised vol side by side. Every historical session is free and needs no account. New to these terms? Start with what GEX is. Measured across the whole archive: how often these levels hold and how far SPX travels before the close.
