A magnet pulls hardest when price is close, time is short, and dealers are long there.
Early on, a heavy strike far from spot carries less weight than it will near the close.
So the HVL can matter more after lunch than at the open. Often, not always.

Arguments about which gamma measure works can be tested.
Write the level down before the session. Afterward, check whether it held, broke, or never came into play.
Hedgemap scores its own levels against what price did. Hold any method to that.

We're not the quickest. Some gamma tools refresh every 60 seconds.
HedgeMap rebuilds the book about every 2 min in the cash session. A level moves only after three pulls in a row agree.
Slower on purpose: one noisy pull doesn't move your level.

NQ recap Thu 10/22
Ugly one. NQ settled Wed at 30,007 and never saw it again. Overnight bled straight down to 29,425 and RTH opened ~29,540, under every level that held yesterday.
10am bounce to 29,595 got sold. Flushed to 29,250 by 10:45, bounced to 29,377 at noon (lower high), then stair-stepped through Fri's 29,269 and Mon's 29,226 lows. LOD 29,033 at 3:45. Sitting ~29,095 at 5pm, about -3% on the day.
Why: AI spend fear came back hard. META -7% after disclosing ~$825B in future AI commitments, SOX -6.7%, CoreWeave -10%, SpaceX -9%. Money ran to bonds, 10y back under 5% on its biggest one-day drop in 3+ years. Nasdaq -2.6%, worst day since June. Dow flat.
ES -1.2% ~7,704. Low 7,677 tagged last Friday's 7,676 low almost to the tick.
Overnight: 29,033 is the line. Lose it and this is a new leg down. Bulls need back over 29,226-29,269, then the 29,377 noon high. Until then bounces are sells, not dip buys.
RTH midday, live book (~12:33 ET):
NQ 29847, 40 over flip 29808. Long gamma (thin), 60th pct of 20
ES 7749, 22 under flip 7770. Short gamma, 30th pct of 20

Where vanna lives:
Near zero at the money. Largest away from spot, with opposite signs above and below.
So an IV reset tends to move the most delta when spot sits between heavy strikes.
HedgeMap shows where those heavy strikes are.
