Dealer hedging represents the mechanical plumbing of the market. Rather than betting on market direction, dealers react to the options purchased by traders by buying or selling the underlying index to remain neutral. By late 2025, 0DTE options accounted for nearly half of the total SPX volume, making this hedging flow a critical footprint for traders to follow when looking for specific price moves.
Gamma Exposure, or GEX, allows traders to read the hedging flow of market makers. Instead of relying solely on traditional support and resistance levels, understanding GEX helps traders treat small price wiggles as mathematical certainties rather than gambles. This data-driven approach is essential for capturing the tiny twenty-five cent moves that define successful 0DTE scalping strategies in the SPX.
A Positive Gamma Regime acts as a safety net for premium sellers, creating a more stable environment for quick credit spread scalps. In this regime, the market plumbing tends to dampen volatility, making it an ideal time for traders to execute short-term strategies. Understanding these regimes helps traders know exactly where the market wind is blowing before they commit to a scalp.
