# GEX by Strike (Enhanced)
> GEX data by strike price with key markers (gamma flip, max pain, walls) and aggregate totals
## What it returns
For a specific expiration, this endpoint returns:
* **GEX per strike** — call, put, net, and total dealer gamma exposure at each listed strike
* **Key markers** — gamma flip point, max pain, largest positive/negative GEX strikes (walls),
max-volatility and max-stability price levels, spot reference, and aggregate totals
* **Asymmetry metrics** — upside vs. downside GEX imbalance and bias direction
* **Metadata** — current price, strike range, timestamp, exchange/coin/expiration
This is the most detailed GEX endpoint — it's what powers the "GEX by Strike"
chart on [gammaflip.io](https://gammaflip.io).
## Path parameters
Exchange name: `bybit`, `deribit`, `okx`, or `all`.
Base coin symbol (uppercase).
Expiration date in `DDMMMYY` format (e.g., `25APR26`), or `TOTAL` to combine
all expirations into a single view.

### Field guide
* **`gex_data`** — parallel arrays; index `i` across all arrays refers to the same strike.
`total_gex` = `call_gex - put_gex` aggregated on dealers' side.
* **`flip_points`** — price level(s) where net dealer GEX crosses zero. Above the flip,
dealer hedging is positive-gamma (stabilising); below, it's negative-gamma (amplifying).
* **`absolute_max` / `positive_max` / `negative_max`** — ranked lists of the largest absolute,
positive, and negative GEX strikes. These are the "walls" where hedging flows concentrate.
* **`stability_point`** — strike with the highest positive net GEX (strongest pinning effect).
* **`volatility_point`** — strike with the most negative net GEX (biggest move-amplifier).
* **`asymmetry`** — imbalance between upside and downside dealer exposure; `bias` is
a qualitative read (`bullish` / `bearish` / `neutral`).
`TOTAL` aggregates all expirations for the given coin. Useful for getting an
"all-positioning" view; individual expiration views are more precise for
timing-specific trades.
## Errors
Exchange not recognized.
No data for this coin/exchange/expiration combination. Common cause: the
expiration doesn't exist on that exchange (use `/expirations/` first).
