What remains uncertain

  • Money Flow data is stale/unavailable per the Money Flow snapshot.
  • Options-flow confirmations flag degraded SIP/trust and limited order-book (market_data_trust marked degraded; underlying Level 2 features unavailable).
  • GEX/market-structure data are model outputs (dealer inventory modeled from public chain OI proxy); snapshots list stability/coverage caveats in each GEX block.
