LEARN THE READINGS

Read the evidence.
Understand the difference.

Short explanations for the tools you use now. Start with the reading you want to understand.

01What is a gamma level?

Gamma Force uses options inputs to rank concentrations by strike and display relevant levels around price. Futures-mapped levels and SPX options analysis have different underlying instruments; check the selected market and calculation. A gamma concentration does not identify who owns a position or predict a guaranteed reaction.

02What does Level II tell me?

The order book shows displayed resting bids and offers. Orders may be reduced or canceled before they trade. Compare the displayed size with executions and price response; a large resting order alone is not proof that an area will hold.

03How do Pressure and Flow read the tape?

Time & Sales records executions. The modules use quotes to classify likely aggressive buying and selling, then compare volume and price behavior. Their readings come from the same tape; agreement is not two independent data sources. Unclassified volume is excluded from the buy/sell percentages.

04What does absorption mean here?

The experimental detector looks for aggressive executions making limited price progress. A later rejection can confirm the observation. Forming and confirmed are different states, and a confirmed level can still break later. These readings describe behavior consistent with absorption, not the identity or full inventory of a participant.

05How do I read support and resistance labels?

On tape-based levels, S and R indicate support and resistance. Prov means provisional; Conf means confirmed. The score out of 100 describes evidence, not a win probability. H counts completed holds; the point figure is the average observed reaction after those holds, not a profit target. Tape support/resistance and absorption are separate calculations.

06Why can range pressure and minute pressure differ?

One-minute pressure uses a rolling time window. Range pressure accumulates within the active structure, using confirmed absorption boundaries when a qualifying pair is available. It is not the separate 30-minute opening-price reference. Keeping the same boundaries preserves the range accumulation; changed or lost boundaries can reset it.

07Is a setup marker a trade?

No. P and F identify the Pressure and Flow module. A direction-change marker, a confirmed setup and an actual fill are different events. Check the view’s legend. Only your manual order action submits an entry; NinjaTrader receipts report order and position state.
