🔑 Key Levels
Key Levels are the foundation of the Gextron framework. They highlight where price is likely to pause, reverse, or accelerate based on option-premium dynamics and market-maker hedging.Use P-Trans / N-Trans to set bias, Gamma walls to spot support/resistance, and combine with Option Flow + Tape for confirmation.

What each level means
P-Trans (Positive Transition)
P-Trans (Positive Transition)
The bullish trigger level.
• Price holding above P-Trans signals bullish bias.
• Confirmation is stronger when the hourly time frame is also holding above.
• How to identify: P-Trans is the first positive bar, and the next three strikes to the right must also be positive.
• Price holding above P-Trans signals bullish bias.
• Confirmation is stronger when the hourly time frame is also holding above.

N-Trans (Negative Transition)
N-Trans (Negative Transition)
The bearish trigger level.
• Price holding below N-Trans signals bearish bias.
• Stronger confirmation when the hourly timeframe is also holding below.
• How to identify: N-Trans is the first negative bar, and the next three strikes to the left must also be negative.
• Price holding below N-Trans signals bearish bias.
• Stronger confirmation when the hourly timeframe is also holding below.

MaxReward (tallest positive bar)

Not all support/resistance levels are created equal.Gextron measures the strength of each level based on option-premium dynamics, so you can quickly see which zones are strong walls versus weaker areas that may flip.
