What SMDD Looks Like to Options Traders Today
IV rank of 46.6% sits near the 1-year median, where strategy choice depends on directional conviction and the event calendar rather than vol regime alone; negative net gamma exposure (-$22) means dealers hedge with trend, amplifying realized volatility and accelerating directional moves; the 25-delta skew (-0.025) prices puts richer than calls, the typical equity downside-protection skew.
