Every day, options dealers hold positions they're forced to hedge — and that hedging pushes and pulls on price at specific levels. Fantom maps those levels live and gives each one a name. This guide explains what every node means and how to run a session with the dashboard. No math degree required.
This is the board Fantom watches: a stack of levels around the live price. Click a node — in the scene or the list — to fly to it. Drag to rotate, scroll on the canvas to zoom.
A day's board, stacked top to bottom: the Call Wall ceiling, magnets like the King and Phantom near price, the GEX Flip pivot, and the Put Wall floor. The gold sphere is spot — the live price moving through the structure.
You don't need to know how the sausage is made. You need to know what each level does to price when it gets there. That's what this list is.
The heaviest concentration of dealer positioning on the board — the day's center of gravity. When nothing else is in the way, price drifts toward the King, especially into the close.
The King's lieutenant — the next-heaviest level standing between price and the King. First touches are often defended; a clean break through the Gate frequently travels the rest of the way to the King quickly.
The hidden magnet — a level carrying outsized pull that most retail feeds never surface. When price drifts somewhere "for no reason," it's usually a reason you couldn't see. This one.
The single most important context switch on the board. Above it, dealer hedging leans against moves — dips get bought, rips get sold, the tape pins. Below it, the same hedging flips and amplifies moves — trends run and reversals snowball.
The hinge where the day's character tends to change. Holding above it favors compression and orderly rotation; losing it favors expansion and bigger swings. Often the first meaningful reaction level inside the Flip.
The ceiling — the strike where dealers most aggressively sell into strength. Rallies stall, stick, or grind here. It can move intraday, but while it holds it caps the board.
The floor — dealers buy weakness into it and dip-buyers make their stand. Breaks below the Put Wall matter: the floor stops being a floor and starts being a trapdoor.
Supportive clusters — strikes radiating stabilizing dealer flow. Price tends to slow down, find footing, and chop constructively inside an Aura zone rather than slice through it.
Accelerant strikes — pockets where hedging adds fuel instead of friction. Moves that reach a Grim level tend to speed up through it, not slow down. The Reaper doesn't negotiate.
Everything on the screen answers one question: where is price being pushed, and how hard? Here's how each panel contributes.
The line across the top tells you the current regime in plain words — which side of the Flip price is on, how far away it is, and what that means for the tape's behavior.
The left panel lists every named node with its live price — Phantom, King, Gate, Flip, HVL, the Walls, plus the Aura and Grim strike lists. This is your pre-market map.
The right panel walks 30 strikes above and below spot. Each row shows the dealer positioning at that strike, P(touch) — the engine's probability that the strike trades at least once before the close, refit every evening — and live badges as flow and positioning shift.
The calendar pop-out spreads the structure across the next ten expiries — strike by strike. Gold ★ cells mark each expiry's dominant strike; node chips ride the ladder on the left, exactly like the Discord posts.
Structure isn't a signal to blindly follow — it's the context every other decision sits inside. Here's the rhythm most members settle into.
Open Key Levels. Note the King, both Walls, and which side of the Flip price sits on. That one fact — above or below — sets your bias between fading and following.
The first test of a nearby node tells you who's in control. Defended Gate? The magnet trade is on. Sliced Grim level? Expect follow-through, not bounce.
Size hitting a level you already have mapped is conviction; size in empty space is noise. The flow strip and Discord alerts tag prints to the node they hit.
Gravity strengthens late. Check the expected-close panel and the King's pull — afternoon drifts toward heavy structure are the board's oldest habit.
