Frequently Asked Questions

What is gamma exposure (GEX) and why does it matter for HDFCLIFE?
Gamma exposure (GEX) measures the total gamma held by options dealers across all strikes for HDFCLIFE. When dealers are net long gamma (positive GEX), they must sell the underlying as price rises and buy as it falls — acting as a stabilising force that dampens volatility. When dealers are net short gamma (negative GEX), they must buy as price rises and sell as it falls — amplifying moves. The GEX chart shows this by strike so you can identify the levels where dealer hedging is most intense.
What is the current net GEX for HDFCLIFE?
The total net gamma exposure for HDFCLIFE is currently +6.22B (positive (market-stabilising)). Positive net GEX means dealers are net long gamma — expect mean-reverting, lower-volatility price action as dealers sell rallies and buy dips.
What are GEX flip points and how do they affect HDFCLIFE?
A GEX flip point (also called the gamma flip or zero-gamma level) is the price at which dealer net gamma exposure transitions from positive to negative. Above the flip point, positive gamma keeps volatility suppressed — rallies and dips are faded by dealer hedging. Below it, negative gamma takes over and dealer hedges amplify moves. The GEX chart on StrikeVue shows the strike-level distribution so you can identify these critical transition levels for HDFCLIFE.
