AI Gamma SPX Regime Status and Metrics por aigamma

AI Gamma SPX Regime Status and Metrics surfaces live SPX derivative metrics from aigamma.com in a 320-pixel popup and reflects the current dealer gamma regime on the toolbar icon at a glance. It is a companion surface to the full aigamma.com dashboard, intended for options traders, volatility analysts, and anyone tracking SPX derivatives positioning in real time.

Toolbar icon states:
- Green plus: POSITIVE gamma regime. Dealers are net long gamma. Market-maker delta-hedging flow is flow-dampening.
- Red minus: NEGATIVE gamma regime. Dealers are net short gamma. Market-maker delta-hedging flow is flow-amplifying.
- Neutral mark: outside US equity market hours or when the snapshot endpoint is unreachable.

Popup metrics:
- SPX Reference. SPX cash index reference price captured at the most recent intraday ingest instant.
- Distance from Risk Off. SPX Reference minus Vol Flip. Positive means dealers are long gamma (dampening). Negative means dealers are short gamma (amplifying).
- Vol Flip. Strike where the signed dealer gamma profile crosses zero. Above this level is the positive-gamma regime. Below is the negative-gamma regime.
- VRP. Volatility Risk Premium. 30-day constant-maturity IV minus 20-day Yang-Zhang realized volatility. End-of-day value; lags intraday spot by up to one trading day.
- IV Rank. Current 30-day constant-maturity IV percentile position in its trailing 252-trading-day window.
- Put Wall. Strike with the largest concentration of put-side open-interest gamma. Often acts as downside support.
- Call Wall. Strike with the largest concentration of call-side open-interest gamma. Often acts as upside resistance.
- ATM IV. At-the-money implied volatility on the nearest 30-DTE monthly SPX expiration, in annualized percent.
- P/C Volume. Total SPX put volume divided by total SPX call volume across all expirations for the session. Higher values indicate more defensive flow.

Update cadence:
The extension fetches a single JSON snapshot from https://aigamma.com/api/snapshot.json during US equity market hours, Monday through Friday 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern, with DST-aware scheduling. Outside market hours the background worker no-ops because the dealer positioning regime cannot change while the SPX options market is closed.
