Main resistance
When price approaches from below, watch whether it rejects, pauses or breaks and holds above. It is an observation area, not an automatic short.
GAMMA FLOW RESEARCH · ATAS QUICK START
You do not need to understand every line. Start with three key positions.
If you already watch Call Wall, Put Wall and Zero Gamma, keep that workflow. The additional Research layers are context; they do not all need equal attention.
Treat the indicator as a dynamic options-level map, not an automatic buy or sell signal.
REAL ATAS VIEW
Levels, history and observed reactions on one chart.
The image below is a real Gamma Flow Research state on GC, not a fabricated mockup. Values and availability change with the market-data state.
MINIMAL VIEW
Begin with these three level types.
Distance and the current label matter more than memorizing every model name.
Main support
When price approaches from above, watch whether it finds support or breaks and remains below. It is an observation area, not an automatic long.
Model-state boundary
Use the nearest Gamma flip as a model-state reference. Do not assume that it must behave as support or resistance.
Simple rule: find the nearest major resistance above price, the nearest major support below price, and then the nearest Gamma flip between or around them. Always follow the label currently shown on the chart.
60-SECOND CHART READ
Four checks. Current map first, price confirmation last.
Use this order every time. The indicator supplies context; price behavior and your own risk rules still control every decision.
- 00–15s
Confirm the current map
Check the nearest active resistance, support or Gamma flip, plus the source time and availability state. Ignore distant levels first.
- 15–30s
Mark any confluence zone
If several current levels overlap, treat the area as concentrated context—not a guaranteed reversal.
- 30–45s
Check observed history
Use 14-day dots for level movement, then read the 30-day sample count, five-minute reaction rate and median move. A small sample or -- is not evidence.
- 45–60s
Wait for price confirmation
Look for rejection, acceptance, a clean break or a reclaim before applying your own entry and risk rules. A touch alone is not a signal.
CLEAN FIRST VIEW
Keep the first chart simple.
These settings keep the current map and reaction summary while hiding denser historical detail until you need it.
Current Levels
Keep the active horizontal levels visible. This is the core map.
14-Day History Dots
The colored dots show earlier level locations. They are not historical entries.
30-Day Event Markers
Touch, break and reclaim markers add detail. Turn them on after learning the main levels.
30-Day Reaction Panel
Keep the compact observed-history summary as background context.
Label Language
Use plain-language Chinese labels first, or switch to English whenever preferred.
Market
ES/MES, NQ/MNQ and GC/MGC are normally recognized automatically.
30-DAY PANEL
Read one row from left to right.
Example: 30D n=84 | 5m 56% | med +0.5pt. These are completed historical observations, not a forecast.
30D n=84 | 5m 56% | med +0.5pt
30D n=84
Eighty-four touches of this level type had enough follow-up data in the latest 30-day archive.
5m 56%
Fifty-six percent of completed touches were moving away from the level about five minutes later. This is not a strategy win rate.
med +0.5pt
The median normalized five-minute move was +0.5 points. It is not the maximum bounce and does not include an entry, stop or target.
For a resistance touched from below, moving down is “away.” For a support touched from above, moving up is “away.” Positive values favor movement away from the level; negative values favor passage through it.
