Key Response Fields

Field	Type	Description
`symbol`	string	Underlying symbol
`underlying_price`	number	Current price of underlying
`as_of`	string	ISO 8601 timestamp
`gamma_flip`	number	Strike where net GEX crosses zero — the gamma flip point
`regime`	string	Gamma regime: `positive_gamma`, `negative_gamma`, or `undetermined`
`exposures`	object	Aggregate exposure values — GEX, DEX, VEX, and CHEX
`interpretation`	object	Plain-English interpretations for gamma, vanna, and charm
`hedging_estimate`	object	Estimated dealer hedging for ±1% spot moves, including share count, direction, and notional USD
`zero_dte`	object	Same-day (0DTE) exposure breakdown: net GEX, percentage of total, and expiration date

What Is the Exposure Summary?

The Summary endpoint returns a complete options exposure overview in a single API call. Instead of querying GEX, DEX, VEX, and CHEX separately, you get all four aggregate values plus the current gamma regime (positive, negative, or undetermined), plain-English interpretations for each metric, dealer hedging estimates for ±1% spot moves, and the percentage contributed by same-day (0DTE) options. This is the most efficient endpoint for building dashboards or monitoring tools.

Common Use Cases

One-call dashboards - populate an entire exposure panel with a single API request instead of four
Regime monitoring - instantly know whether the market is in a positive or negative gamma regime
Hedging impact estimation - see how much buying or selling dealers would do on a 1% move
Alert systems - trigger alerts when regime changes or exposure crosses thresholds
0DTE impact tracking - monitor how much of total exposure comes from same-day expirations
