Flip Point (F) marker on GEX by Strike chart showing where gamma crosses zero — the regime boundary

The Flip Point marks where net GEX crosses zero — the boundary between volatility regimes.

  • Above flip: Positive gamma regime → low volatility, mean reversion
  • Below flip: Negative gamma regime → high volatility, momentum
  • Crossing the flip point = major regime change signal

How to trade:

  • If price is above F: Favor range-bound strategies, sell premium
  • If price is below F: Favor momentum strategies, buy volatility
  • If price is at F: Be cautious — the regime is uncertain
