AEX Optiemarkt & Dealer Flow Analyse
De AEX sloot maandag 0,2% hoger op 1.115,42. Daarmee bevestigt de index de zone boven 1.114 en komt 1.120 opnieuw direct in beeld als eerste magneet- en testzone. De hoogste koers lag op 1.118,21 en de laagste koers op 1.110,10. Dat betekent dat 1.110 intraday werd getest, maar op slotbasis duidelijk werd vastgehouden.
Aan de indexkant is dit een verdere verbetering ten opzichte van het vorige bericht. Toen sloot de AEX opnieuw in de zone 1.110 tot 1.114, maar was er nog geen overtuigende slotbevestiging boven 1.114. Nu sluit de index boven 1.114. Daarmee verschuift 1.110 tot 1.114 van heroveringszone naar eerste steun- en bevestigingszone.
Directe Richting
⬛ Dinsdag / direct: neutraal tot licht positief, maar duidelijk beschermd (licht verhoogd ten opzichte van maandag, omdat de AEX boven 1.114 sluit en 1.120 opnieuw direct in beeld komt, terwijl de call-putratio met 0,61 fors put-zwaar blijft)
⬛ Komende 5 dagen: neutraal tot licht positief, maar beschermd (gelijk tot iets verhoogd ten opzichte van maandag, zolang 1.114 en vooral 1.110 op slotbasis standhouden)
⬛ Komende 1 tot 3 maanden: neutraal tot constructief, maar met duidelijke bescherming (gelijk aan maandag, omdat het open interest nog steeds zeer put-zwaar is)
⬛ Belangrijkste korte termijn zone: 1.114 tot 1.120 als directe magneet- en bevestigingszone, met 1.110 tot 1.114 als eerste steunzone (verhoogd ten opzichte van maandag)
⬛ Komende weken: 1.120 wordt de eerste directe magneetzone, met 1.130 tot 1.150 als hogere richtzone bij bevestiging boven 1.120 en op langere termijn 1.160 tot 1.200 (verhoogd ten opzichte van maandag, omdat 1.114 nu op slotbasis is bevestigd)
De optiemarkt blijft wel duidelijk beschermd. Het totale volume staat op 34.863 contracten, verdeeld over 13.204 calls en 21.659 puts. De call-putratio blijft 0,61. Dat is fors put-zwaar en laat zien dat de betere indexstand niet wordt gedragen door een vrije, call-gedreven optiemarkt.
Het open interest bij opening staat op 24.078 contracten, verdeeld over 3.951 calls en 20.127 puts. Dat is zeer put-zwaar. De absolute omvang is lager dan in het vorige bericht, maar de verhouding blijft duidelijk defensief. De bestaande positionering blijft dus beschermd.
September blijft de eerste actieve optiemarktlaag. Oktober blijft de aanvullende tussenlaag. November kan als zichtbare tussenlaag worden meegenomen wanneer dat nuttig is en december blijft de langere termijnlaag. De directe markt draait nu om 1.114 tot 1.120 als directe magneet- en bevestigingszone, met 1.110 tot 1.114 als eerste steunzone.
Voor dinsdag wordt de directe bias licht verhoogd naar neutraal tot licht positief, maar duidelijk beschermd. De 5-daagse bias blijft neutraal tot licht positief, maar beschermd zolang 1.114 en vooral 1.110 op slotbasis standhouden. De 1 tot 3 maanden bias blijft neutraal tot constructief, maar met duidelijke bescherming door het zeer put-zware open interest.
De motivatie is dat de AEX maandag opnieuw hoger sluit en nu boven 1.114 eindigt. Daarmee is de bevestiging sterker dan in het vorige bericht. De markt hoeft niet meer eerst 1.105 of 1.110 terug te winnen; die zones liggen nu onder de markt.
Toch is het beeld niet vrij bullish. De call-putratio blijft 0,61 en het open interest is zeer put-zwaar, met 3.951 calls tegenover 20.127 puts. Dat betekent dat de prijsstructuur verbetert, maar dat de optiemarkt nog altijd veel bescherming laat zien.
Aan de bovenkant wordt 1.120 nu de eerste directe magneet- en testzone. Boven 1.120 ontstaat ruimte richting 1.130 tot 1.150. Daarboven blijven 1.160 tot 1.200 de bredere hogere richtzones. Aan de onderkant is 1.110 tot 1.114 nu de eerste steun- en bevestigingszone. Onder 1.110 komt 1.105 opnieuw terug als steunzone en daaronder blijft 1.100 de grote steun- en testzone.
September 2026 Expiratie
September blijft de eerste actieve optiemarktlaag. De zichtbare activiteit ligt vooral rond 1.100, 1.105, 1.110, 1.115, 1.120, 1.125, 1.130, 1.140, 1.150, 1.160, 1.170, 1.180, 1.200, 1.220, 1.240 en 1.280.
Door het slot op 1.115,42 draait de directe markt nu om 1.114 tot 1.120. De AEX sluit boven 1.114 en heeft 1.118,21 geraakt. Daarmee wordt 1.120 opnieuw de eerste magneet- en testzone.
Boven 1.120 ontstaat ruimte richting 1.130 tot 1.150. Daarboven blijven 1.160 tot 1.200 de bredere hogere richtzones. Aan de onderkant wordt 1.110 tot 1.114 nu de eerste steun- en bevestigingszone. Daaronder ligt 1.105 als volgende steunzone en 1.100 als grote steun- en testzone.
Door de call-putratio van 0,61 wordt september aan de dagflowkant nog steeds duidelijk defensief gelezen. Het open interest bevestigt dat beeld, omdat de bestaande positionering zeer put-zwaar is. De indexstructuur is dus verbeterd, maar de optiemarkt blijft beschermd.
Totaal dagvolume: 34.863 contracten
Putactiviteit: duidelijk dominant in de dagflow door de call-putratio van 0,61
Callactiviteit: zichtbaar rond 1.100, 1.105, 1.110, 1.115, 1.120, 1.125, 1.130, 1.140, 1.150, 1.160, 1.170, 1.180, 1.200, 1.220, 1.240 en 1.280
Structuur: neutraal tot licht positief op indexniveau, maar duidelijk beschermd door put-zware dagflow en zeer put-zwaar open interest
Belangrijkste zone: 1.114 tot 1.120 als directe magneet- en bevestigingszone, met 1.110 tot 1.114 als eerste steunzone
Belangrijkste Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: grote steun- en testzone | Gamma-effect: belangrijkste onderliggende steunpunt bij duidelijke terugval
1105: Dominant flow: volgende steunzone onder 1.110 | Gamma-effect: behoud boven deze zone voorkomt terugkeer naar steunmodus
1110-1114: Dominant flow: eerste steun- en bevestigingszone | Gamma-effect: boven deze zone blijft de markt in herstelmodus
1120: Dominant flow: eerste magneet- en testzone | Gamma-effect: bevestiging boven deze zone opent ruimte richting 1.130 tot 1.150
1130-1150: Dominant flow: hogere callzones | Gamma-effect: volgende richtzone bij bevestiging boven 1.120
1160-1180: Dominant flow: hogere vervolgzone | Gamma-effect: aanvullende upside bij duidelijke kracht
1200-1240: Dominant flow: bredere hogere callzone | Gamma-effect: vooral relevant bij aanhoudende kracht boven 1.150
1280: Dominant flow: verdere hogere callzone | Gamma-effect: langere exposure, niet leidend voor dinsdag
Dealer Positioning
De dealer positioning in september verbetert aan de indexkant, maar blijft beschermd aan de optiekant. De AEX sluit boven 1.114, waardoor 1.120 opnieuw de eerste bovenliggende magneetzone wordt. Tegelijk blijft de optiemarkt fors put-gericht.
Zolang 1.110 tot 1.114 standhoudt, blijft de markt in herstelmodus. Boven 1.120 kan de markt verder kijken naar 1.130 tot 1.150. Onder 1.110 komt 1.105 opnieuw terug als steunzone. Onder 1.105 komt 1.100 opnieuw terug als grote steun- en testzone.
Oktober 2026 Expiratie
Oktober blijft een aanvullende tussenlaag. De zichtbare zones liggen opnieuw rond 1.100, 1.110, 1.120, 1.130, 1.140, 1.150, 1.160, 1.180 en 1.200.
Oktober verandert de richting niet zelfstandig. Deze laag bevestigt vooral dat 1.120 nu opnieuw de eerste bovenliggende magneetzone wordt. De markt staat boven 1.110 en boven 1.114, waardoor de directe druk duidelijk is afgenomen.
Tegelijk blijft de optiemarkt beschermd zolang de call-putratio en het open interest put-zwaar blijven. De indexstructuur verbetert dus, maar de positionering blijft voorzichtig.
Totaal dagvolume: 34.863 contracten
Putactiviteit: niet leidend als zelfstandige laag, maar passend bij een duidelijk beschermde marktstructuur
Callactiviteit: vooral relevant bij bevestiging boven 1.120, daarna richting 1.130 tot 1.150 en 1.180
Structuur: aanvullend en bevestigend, maar niet zelfstandig richtinggevend
Belangrijkste zone: 1.114 tot 1.120 als directe magneet- en bevestigingszone, met 1.110 tot 1.114 als eerste steunzone
Belangrijkste Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: centrale steun en bevestiging | Gamma-effect: boven deze zone blijft het bredere korte termijnbeeld overeind
1105: Dominant flow: lagere steunzone | Gamma-effect: boven deze zone blijft de markt uit terugvalmodus
1110-1114: Dominant flow: eerste steun- en bevestigingszone | Gamma-effect: boven deze zone blijft herstel intact
1120: Dominant flow: eerste magneetzone | Gamma-effect: boven deze zone krijgt de markt opnieuw meer kracht
1130-1150: Dominant flow: hogere callzone | Gamma-effect: volgende zone bij duidelijke bevestiging boven 1.120
1160-1180: Dominant flow: hogere vervolgzone | Gamma-effect: aanvullende upside bij aanhoudende kracht
1200: Dominant flow: langere richtzone | Gamma-effect: belangrijker voor de komende weken dan voor dinsdag
Dealer Positioning
De dealer positioning voor oktober is vooral bevestigend. De laag onderstreept dat 1.110 tot 1.114 nu de eerste steun- en bevestigingszone is en dat 1.120 opnieuw de eerste magneetzone wordt.
Boven 1.120 ontstaat meer ruimte richting 1.130 tot 1.150 en daarna 1.160 tot 1.180. Onder 1.114 komt 1.110 opnieuw terug als eerste steun. Onder 1.110 verschuift de aandacht naar 1.105.
November 2026 Expiratie
November is zichtbaar als tussenlaag, maar niet leidend. De zichtbare activiteit ligt vooral rond 1.100, 1.110, 1.120, 1.140, 1.150, 1.160, 1.180, 1.200 en 1.240.
Deze laag ondersteunt het verbeterde beeld. 1.100 blijft structurele steun. 1.105 blijft een belangrijke lagere steun. 1.110 tot 1.114 wordt nu de eerste steun- en bevestigingszone. 1.120 is de eerste magneetzone, met 1.130 tot 1.150 als volgende richtzone bij bevestiging.
Voor dinsdag geeft november geen zelfstandig ander signaal. De laag bevestigt dat de bredere bovenkant zichtbaar blijft, maar dat de optiemarkt door het put-zware open interest beschermd blijft.
Totaal open interest bij opening: 24.078 contracten
Putactiviteit: zeer duidelijk aanwezig in de bestaande positionering
Callactiviteit: zichtbaar rond 1.100, 1.110, 1.120, 1.140, 1.150, 1.160, 1.180, 1.200 en 1.240
Structuur: aanvullende tussenlaag, neutraal tot constructief maar duidelijk beschermd
Belangrijkste zone: 1.110 tot 1.114 als eerste steun- en bevestigingszone, 1.120 als eerste magneetzone en 1.130 tot 1.150 als hogere richtzone
Belangrijkste Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: structurele steun | Gamma-effect: behoud boven deze zone houdt de bredere structuur overeind
1105: Dominant flow: lagere steunzone | Gamma-effect: boven deze zone blijft de markt beschermd maar stabiel
1110-1114: Dominant flow: eerste steun- en bevestigingszone | Gamma-effect: boven deze zone blijft het herstelbeeld intact
1120: Dominant flow: eerste magneetzone bij herstel | Gamma-effect: bevestiging boven deze zone maakt 1.130 tot 1.150 belangrijker
1140-1160: Dominant flow: hogere callzone | Gamma-effect: extra ruimte bij bevestiging boven 1.120
1180-1200: Dominant flow: langere richtzone | Gamma-effect: bredere upside bij aanhoudende kracht
1240: Dominant flow: hogere lange termijnzone | Gamma-effect: niet leidend voor dinsdag
Dealer Positioning
De dealer positioning voor november is ondersteunend, maar niet leidend. De laag laat zien dat hogere zones zichtbaar blijven, maar dat directe bevestiging nu eerst rond 1.120 moet plaatsvinden.
Zolang 1.110 tot 1.114 standhoudt, blijft de verbetering intact. Boven 1.120 komt 1.130 tot 1.150 sterker in beeld. Onder 1.110 komt 1.105 opnieuw terug als steunzone. Onder 1.105 verschuift de aandacht naar 1.100.
December 2026 Expiratie
December blijft de langere laag. Daar vallen vooral 1.100, 1.110, 1.120, 1.140, 1.160, 1.180, 1.200, 1.240, 1.280 en 1.300 op.
De langere bovenkant blijft duidelijk zichtbaar. Maar door het zeer put-zware open interest blijft de langere structuur beschermd. De AEX heeft 1.114 op slotbasis bevestigd, maar moet nu 1.120 bevestigen om het langere beeld opnieuw sterker te maken.
Omdat het open interest zeer put-zwaar is, blijft december duidelijk beschermd. De langere structuur is neutraal tot constructief zolang 1.100 standhoudt, maar de markt geeft nog geen volledig vrij positief signaal.
Totaal open interest bij opening: 24.078 contracten
Putactiviteit: zeer fors dominant in de bestaande positionering
Callactiviteit: zichtbaar rond 1.100, 1.110, 1.120, 1.140, 1.160, 1.180, 1.200, 1.240 en hoger
Structuur: neutraal tot constructief, maar met duidelijke bescherming
Belangrijkste zone: 1.110 tot 1.114 als eerste steun- en bevestigingszone, 1.120 als eerste magneetzone en 1.130 tot 1.150 als hogere richtzone bij bevestiging
Belangrijkste Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: eerste langere bevestiging en steun | Gamma-effect: boven deze zone blijft het langere beeld overeind
1105: Dominant flow: lagere steunzone | Gamma-effect: boven deze zone blijft de markt stabiel
1110-1120: Dominant flow: herstel- en bevestigingszone boven 1.100 | Gamma-effect: boven deze zone krijgt de langere bovenkant opnieuw meer betekenis
1140-1160: Dominant flow: hogere callzone | Gamma-effect: extra herstelruimte bij kracht boven 1.120
1180-1200: Dominant flow: langere richtzone | Gamma-effect: langere upside exposure bij aanhoudende kracht
1240: Dominant flow: hogere lange termijnzone | Gamma-effect: alleen belangrijk bij sterker herstel boven 1.200
1280-1300: Dominant flow: verre lange termijn callactiviteit | Gamma-effect: langere termijn exposure, niet leidend voor dinsdag
Dealer Positioning
De dealer positioning voor december blijft beschermd. De langere callzones blijven zichtbaar, maar de zeer put-zware positionering remt een vrij bullish lezing.
Boven 1.120 wordt de structuur opnieuw sterker. Daarna komt 1.130 tot 1.150 in beeld, gevolgd door 1.160 tot 1.200. Onder 1.114 komt 1.110 opnieuw terug als eerste steunzone. Onder 1.110 verschuift de aandacht naar 1.105 en daarna 1.100.
Slotbeeld
De AEX sloot maandag 0,2% hoger op 1.115,42. Daarmee bevestigt de index de zone boven 1.114 en komt 1.120 opnieuw direct in beeld als eerste magneet- en testzone. Intraday werd 1.118,21 gehaald, terwijl 1.110,10 als onderkant standhield.
De optiemarkt blijft echter duidelijk beschermd. De call-putratio blijft 0,61 en het open interest is zeer put-zwaar met 3.951 calls tegenover 20.127 puts. Daardoor wordt de bias voor dinsdag licht verhoogd, maar niet naar hard positief.
Grootste kans: handel rond 1.114 tot 1.120, met 1.120 als eerste magneet- en testzone
Belangrijkste magnet-zone: 1.120 wordt de eerste directe magneetzone, met 1.130 tot 1.150 als hogere richtzone bij bevestiging boven 1.120
Belangrijkste supportzone: 1.110 tot 1.114 als eerste steun- en bevestigingszone, met 1.105 als volgende steunzone en 1.100 als grote steun- en testzone
Optiemarkt bias: neutraal tot licht positief, maar duidelijk beschermd voor dinsdag en neutraal tot licht positief, maar beschermd voor de komende 5 dagen
Waarom dit belangrijk is: de AEX bevestigt 1.114 op slotbasis en brengt 1.120 terug in beeld, maar de call-putratio blijft fors put-zwaar en het open interest is zeer defensief
Verwachting richting dinsdag: neutraal tot licht positief, maar duidelijk beschermd zolang de AEX boven 1.110 tot 1.114 blijft, met 1.120 als eerste magneet- en testzone
English version
AEX Options Market & Dealer Flow Analysis
The AEX closed 0.2% higher on Monday at 1,115.42. This confirms the zone above 1,114 and brings 1,120 directly back into focus as the first magnet and test zone. The intraday high was 1,118.21 and the intraday low was 1,110.10. This means 1,110 was tested intraday, but clearly held on a closing basis.
On the index side, this is a further improvement versus the previous update. In that update, the AEX had closed back inside the 1,110 to 1,114 zone, but there was still no convincing closing confirmation above 1,114. Now the index closes above 1,114. This shifts 1,110 to 1,114 from a reclaim zone into the first support and confirmation zone.
The options market remains clearly protected. Total volume stands at 34,863 contracts, split between 13,204 calls and 21,659 puts. The call-put ratio remains 0.61. This is heavily put-weighted and shows that the stronger index level is not supported by a freely call-driven options market.
Open interest at the opening stands at 24,078 contracts, split between 3,951 calls and 20,127 puts. This is very put-weighted. The absolute size is lower than in the previous update, but the ratio remains clearly defensive. Existing positioning therefore remains protected.
September remains the first active options layer. October remains the additional intermediate layer. November can be included as a visible intermediate layer when useful, and December remains the longer-term layer. The direct market now revolves around 1,114 to 1,120 as the direct magnet and confirmation zone, with 1,110 to 1,114 as the first support zone.
For Tuesday, the direct bias is slightly raised to neutral to mildly positive, but clearly protected. The 5-day bias remains neutral to mildly positive, but protected as long as 1,114 and especially 1,110 hold on a closing basis. The 1 to 3 month bias remains neutral to constructive, but with clear protection due to very put-weighted open interest.
Direct Direction
⬛ Tuesday / direct: neutral to mildly positive, but clearly protected (slightly raised versus Monday, because the AEX closes above 1,114 and 1,120 comes directly back into view, while the 0.61 call-put ratio remains heavily put-weighted)
⬛ Next 5 days: neutral to mildly positive, but protected (unchanged to slightly raised versus Monday, as long as 1,114 and especially 1,110 hold on a closing basis)
⬛ Next 1 to 3 months: neutral to constructive, but with clear protection (unchanged versus Monday, because open interest remains very put-weighted)
⬛ Key short-term zone: 1,114 to 1,120 as the direct magnet and confirmation zone, with 1,110 to 1,114 as first support zone (raised versus Monday)
⬛ Coming weeks: 1,120 becomes the first direct magnet zone, with 1,130 to 1,150 as the higher target zone on confirmation above 1,120 and 1,160 to 1,200 longer term (raised versus Monday, because 1,114 is now confirmed on a closing basis)
The reasoning is that the AEX closes higher again on Monday and now ends above 1,114. That makes the confirmation stronger than in the previous update. The market no longer needs to reclaim 1,105 or 1,110 first; those zones are now below the market.
Still, the picture is not freely bullish. The call-put ratio remains 0.61 and open interest is very put-weighted, with 3,951 calls versus 20,127 puts. This means the price structure has improved, but the options market still shows a lot of protection.
On the upside, 1,120 now becomes the first direct magnet and test zone. Above 1,120, room opens toward 1,130 to 1,150. Above that, 1,160 to 1,200 remain the broader higher target zones. On the downside, 1,110 to 1,114 is now the first support and confirmation zone. Below 1,110, 1,105 comes back as support and below that 1,100 remains the major support and test zone.
September 2026 Expiry
September remains the first active options layer. Visible activity is mainly located around 1,100, 1,105, 1,110, 1,115, 1,120, 1,125, 1,130, 1,140, 1,150, 1,160, 1,170, 1,180, 1,200, 1,220, 1,240 and 1,280.
Because of the close at 1,115.42, the direct market now revolves around 1,114 to 1,120. The AEX closes above 1,114 and reached 1,118.21. This makes 1,120 the first magnet and test zone again.
Above 1,120, room opens toward 1,130 to 1,150. Above that, 1,160 to 1,200 remain the broader higher target zones. On the downside, 1,110 to 1,114 now becomes the first support and confirmation zone. Below that sits 1,105 as next support and 1,100 as major support and test zone.
Because of the 0.61 call-put ratio, September is still read as clearly defensive on the day-flow side. Open interest confirms that picture, because existing positioning is very put-weighted. The index structure has improved, but the options market remains protected.
Total day volume: 34,863 contracts
Put activity: clearly dominant in day flow due to the 0.61 call-put ratio
Call activity: visible around 1,100, 1,105, 1,110, 1,115, 1,120, 1,125, 1,130, 1,140, 1,150, 1,160, 1,170, 1,180, 1,200, 1,220, 1,240 and 1,280
Structure: neutral to mildly positive on the index side, but clearly protected by put-heavy day flow and very put-weighted open interest
Key zone: 1,114 to 1,120 as the direct magnet and confirmation zone, with 1,110 to 1,114 as the first support zone
Key Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: major support and test zone | Gamma effect: main underlying support level on a clear pullback
1105: Dominant flow: next support zone below 1,110 | Gamma effect: holding above this zone prevents a return to support mode
1110-1114: Dominant flow: first support and confirmation zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the market remains in recovery mode
1120: Dominant flow: first magnet and test zone | Gamma effect: confirmation above this zone opens room toward 1,130 to 1,150
1130-1150: Dominant flow: higher call zones | Gamma effect: next target zone with confirmation above 1,120
1160-1180: Dominant flow: higher follow-through zone | Gamma effect: additional upside with clear strength
1200-1240: Dominant flow: broader higher call zone | Gamma effect: mainly relevant if strength above 1,150 persists
1280: Dominant flow: further higher call zone | Gamma effect: longer exposure, not leading for Tuesday
Dealer Positioning
Dealer positioning in September improves on the index side, but remains protected on the options side. The AEX closes above 1,114, which makes 1,120 the first upper magnet zone again. At the same time, the options market remains heavily put-oriented.
As long as 1,110 to 1,114 holds, the market remains in recovery mode. Above 1,120, the market can look further toward 1,130 to 1,150. Below 1,110, 1,105 returns as support. Below 1,105, 1,100 comes back as the major support and test zone.
October 2026 Expiry
October remains an additional intermediate layer. The visible zones are again around 1,100, 1,110, 1,120, 1,130, 1,140, 1,150, 1,160, 1,180 and 1,200.
October does not change direction independently. This layer mainly confirms that 1,120 is again the first upper magnet zone. The market is above 1,110 and above 1,114, meaning direct pressure has clearly eased.
At the same time, the options market remains protected as long as the call-put ratio and open interest remain put-weighted. The index structure improves, but positioning remains cautious.
Total day volume: 34,863 contracts
Put activity: not leading as a standalone layer, but consistent with a clearly protected market structure
Call activity: mainly relevant on confirmation above 1,120, then toward 1,130 to 1,150 and 1,180
Structure: additional and confirming, but not independently direction-setting
Key zone: 1,114 to 1,120 as direct magnet and confirmation zone, with 1,110 to 1,114 as first support zone
Key Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: central support and confirmation | Gamma effect: above this zone, the broader short-term picture remains intact
1105: Dominant flow: lower support zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the market remains out of pullback mode
1110-1114: Dominant flow: first support and confirmation zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, recovery remains intact
1120: Dominant flow: first magnet zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the market regains more strength
1130-1150: Dominant flow: higher call zone | Gamma effect: next zone on clear confirmation above 1,120
1160-1180: Dominant flow: higher follow-through zone | Gamma effect: additional upside if strength persists
1200: Dominant flow: longer target zone | Gamma effect: more important for the coming weeks than for Tuesday
Dealer Positioning
Dealer positioning for October is mainly confirming. The layer underlines that 1,110 to 1,114 is now the first support and confirmation zone and that 1,120 again becomes the first magnet zone.
Above 1,120, more room opens toward 1,130 to 1,150 and then 1,160 to 1,180. Below 1,114, 1,110 returns as first support. Below 1,110, attention shifts to 1,105.
November 2026 Expiry
November is visible as an intermediate layer, but not leading. Visible activity is mainly located around 1,100, 1,110, 1,120, 1,140, 1,150, 1,160, 1,180, 1,200 and 1,240.
This layer supports the improved picture. 1,100 remains structural support. 1,105 remains an important lower support. 1,110 to 1,114 now becomes the first support and confirmation zone. 1,120 is the first magnet zone, with 1,130 to 1,150 as the next target zone on confirmation.
For Tuesday, November does not provide a separate signal. The layer confirms that the broader upside remains visible, but that the options market remains protected by put-weighted open interest.
Total open interest at the opening: 24,078 contracts
Put activity: very clearly present in existing positioning
Call activity: visible around 1,100, 1,110, 1,120, 1,140, 1,150, 1,160, 1,180, 1,200 and 1,240
Structure: additional intermediate layer, neutral to constructive but clearly protected
Key zone: 1,110 to 1,114 as first support and confirmation zone, 1,120 as first magnet zone and 1,130 to 1,150 as higher target zone
Key Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: structural support | Gamma effect: holding above this zone keeps the broader structure intact
1105: Dominant flow: lower support zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the market remains protected but stable
1110-1114: Dominant flow: first support and confirmation zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the recovery picture remains intact
1120: Dominant flow: first magnet zone on recovery | Gamma effect: confirmation above this zone makes 1,130 to 1,150 more important
1140-1160: Dominant flow: higher call zone | Gamma effect: additional room on confirmation above 1,120
1180-1200: Dominant flow: longer target zone | Gamma effect: broader upside if strength persists
1240: Dominant flow: higher long-term zone | Gamma effect: not leading for Tuesday
Dealer Positioning
Dealer positioning for November is supportive, but not leading. The layer shows that higher zones remain visible, but direct confirmation now first needs to take place around 1,120.
As long as 1,110 to 1,114 holds, the improvement remains intact. Above 1,120, 1,130 to 1,150 comes into view more strongly. Below 1,110, 1,105 returns as support. Below 1,105, attention shifts to 1,100.
December 2026 Expiry
December remains the longer layer. The key zones are mainly 1,100, 1,110, 1,120, 1,140, 1,160, 1,180, 1,200, 1,240, 1,280 and 1,300.
The longer upside remains clearly visible. But due to very put-weighted open interest, the longer structure remains protected. The AEX has confirmed 1,114 on a closing basis, but now needs to confirm 1,120 to make the longer picture stronger again.
Because open interest is very put-weighted, December remains clearly protected. The longer structure is neutral to constructive as long as 1,100 holds, but the market does not yet give a fully freely positive signal.
Total open interest at the opening: 24,078 contracts
Put activity: very dominant in existing positioning
Call activity: visible around 1,100, 1,110, 1,120, 1,140, 1,160, 1,180, 1,200, 1,240 and higher
Structure: neutral to constructive, but with clear protection
Key zone: 1,110 to 1,114 as first support and confirmation zone, 1,120 as first magnet zone and 1,130 to 1,150 as higher target zone on confirmation
Key Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: first longer confirmation and support | Gamma effect: above this zone, the longer picture remains intact
1105: Dominant flow: lower support zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the market remains stable
1110-1120: Dominant flow: recovery and confirmation zone above 1,100 | Gamma effect: above this zone, the longer upside regains more meaning
1140-1160: Dominant flow: higher call zone | Gamma effect: extra recovery room if strength moves above 1,120
1180-1200: Dominant flow: longer target zone | Gamma effect: longer upside exposure if strength persists
1240: Dominant flow: higher long-term zone | Gamma effect: only important on stronger recovery above 1,200
1280-1300: Dominant flow: far long-term call activity | Gamma effect: longer-term exposure, not leading for Tuesday
Dealer Positioning
Dealer positioning for December remains protected. Longer call zones remain visible, but the very put-weighted positioning limits a freely bullish reading.
Above 1,120, the structure becomes stronger again. After that, 1,130 to 1,150 comes into view, followed by 1,160 to 1,200. Below 1,114, 1,110 returns as first support. Below 1,110, attention shifts to 1,105 and then 1,100.
Slotbeeld
De AEX sloot maandag 0,2% hoger op 1.115,42. Daarmee bevestigt de index de zone boven 1.114 en komt 1.120 opnieuw direct in beeld als eerste magneet- en testzone. Intraday werd 1.118,21 gehaald, terwijl 1.110,10 als onderkant standhield.
De optiemarkt blijft echter duidelijk beschermd. De call-putratio blijft 0,61 en het open interest is zeer put-zwaar met 3.951 calls tegenover 20.127 puts. Daardoor wordt de bias voor dinsdag licht verhoogd, maar niet naar hard positief.
Grootste kans: handel rond 1.114 tot 1.120, met 1.120 als eerste magneet- en testzone
Belangrijkste magnet-zone: 1.120 wordt de eerste directe magneetzone, met 1.130 tot 1.150 als hogere richtzone bij bevestiging boven 1.120
Belangrijkste supportzone: 1.110 tot 1.114 als eerste steun- en bevestigingszone, met 1.105 als volgende steunzone en 1.100 als grote steun- en testzone
Optiemarkt bias: neutraal tot licht positief, maar duidelijk beschermd voor dinsdag en neutraal tot licht positief, maar beschermd voor de komende 5 dagen
Waarom dit belangrijk is: de AEX bevestigt 1.114 op slotbasis en brengt 1.120 terug in beeld, maar de call-putratio blijft fors put-zwaar en het open interest is zeer defensief
Verwachting richting dinsdag: neutraal tot licht positief, maar duidelijk beschermd zolang de AEX boven 1.110 tot 1.114 blijft, met 1.120 als eerste magneet- en testzone
English version
AEX Options Market & Dealer Flow Analysis
The AEX closed 0.2% higher on Monday at 1,115.42. This confirms the zone above 1,114 and brings 1,120 directly back into focus as the first magnet and test zone. The intraday high was 1,118.21 and the intraday low was 1,110.10. This means 1,110 was tested intraday, but clearly held on a closing basis.
On the index side, this is a further improvement versus the previous update. In that update, the AEX had closed back inside the 1,110 to 1,114 zone, but there was still no convincing closing confirmation above 1,114. Now the index closes above 1,114. This shifts 1,110 to 1,114 from a reclaim zone into the first support and confirmation zone.
The options market remains clearly protected. Total volume stands at 34,863 contracts, split between 13,204 calls and 21,659 puts. The call-put ratio remains 0.61. This is heavily put-weighted and shows that the stronger index level is not supported by a freely call-driven options market.
Open interest at the opening stands at 24,078 contracts, split between 3,951 calls and 20,127 puts. This is very put-weighted. The absolute size is lower than in the previous update, but the ratio remains clearly defensive. Existing positioning therefore remains protected.
September remains the first active options layer. October remains the additional intermediate layer. November can be included as a visible intermediate layer when useful, and December remains the longer-term layer. The direct market now revolves around 1,114 to 1,120 as the direct magnet and confirmation zone, with 1,110 to 1,114 as the first support zone.
For Tuesday, the direct bias is slightly raised to neutral to mildly positive, but clearly protected. The 5-day bias remains neutral to mildly positive, but protected as long as 1,114 and especially 1,110 hold on a closing basis. The 1 to 3 month bias remains neutral to constructive, but with clear protection due to very put-weighted open interest.
Direct Direction
⬛ Tuesday / direct: neutral to mildly positive, but clearly protected (slightly raised versus Monday, because the AEX closes above 1,114 and 1,120 comes directly back into view, while the 0.61 call-put ratio remains heavily put-weighted)
⬛ Next 5 days: neutral to mildly positive, but protected (unchanged to slightly raised versus Monday, as long as 1,114 and especially 1,110 hold on a closing basis)
⬛ Next 1 to 3 months: neutral to constructive, but with clear protection (unchanged versus Monday, because open interest remains very put-weighted)
⬛ Key short-term zone: 1,114 to 1,120 as the direct magnet and confirmation zone, with 1,110 to 1,114 as first support zone (raised versus Monday)
⬛ Coming weeks: 1,120 becomes the first direct magnet zone, with 1,130 to 1,150 as the higher target zone on confirmation above 1,120 and 1,160 to 1,200 longer term (raised versus Monday, because 1,114 is now confirmed on a closing basis)
The reasoning is that the AEX closes higher again on Monday and now ends above 1,114. That makes the confirmation stronger than in the previous update. The market no longer needs to reclaim 1,105 or 1,110 first; those zones are now below the market.
Still, the picture is not freely bullish. The call-put ratio remains 0.61 and open interest is very put-weighted, with 3,951 calls versus 20,127 puts. This means the price structure has improved, but the options market still shows a lot of protection.
On the upside, 1,120 now becomes the first direct magnet and test zone. Above 1,120, room opens toward 1,130 to 1,150. Above that, 1,160 to 1,200 remain the broader higher target zones. On the downside, 1,110 to 1,114 is now the first support and confirmation zone. Below 1,110, 1,105 comes back as support and below that 1,100 remains the major support and test zone.
September 2026 Expiry
September remains the first active options layer. Visible activity is mainly located around 1,100, 1,105, 1,110, 1,115, 1,120, 1,125, 1,130, 1,140, 1,150, 1,160, 1,170, 1,180, 1,200, 1,220, 1,240 and 1,280.
Because of the close at 1,115.42, the direct market now revolves around 1,114 to 1,120. The AEX closes above 1,114 and reached 1,118.21. This makes 1,120 the first magnet and test zone again.
Above 1,120, room opens toward 1,130 to 1,150. Above that, 1,160 to 1,200 remain the broader higher target zones. On the downside, 1,110 to 1,114 now becomes the first support and confirmation zone. Below that sits 1,105 as next support and 1,100 as major support and test zone.
Because of the 0.61 call-put ratio, September is still read as clearly defensive on the day-flow side. Open interest confirms that picture, because existing positioning is very put-weighted. The index structure has improved, but the options market remains protected.
Total day volume: 34,863 contracts
Put activity: clearly dominant in day flow due to the 0.61 call-put ratio
Call activity: visible around 1,100, 1,105, 1,110, 1,115, 1,120, 1,125, 1,130, 1,140, 1,150, 1,160, 1,170, 1,180, 1,200, 1,220, 1,240 and 1,280
Structure: neutral to mildly positive on the index side, but clearly protected by put-heavy day flow and very put-weighted open interest
Key zone: 1,114 to 1,120 as the direct magnet and confirmation zone, with 1,110 to 1,114 as the first support zone
Key Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: major support and test zone | Gamma effect: main underlying support level on a clear pullback
1105: Dominant flow: next support zone below 1,110 | Gamma effect: holding above this zone prevents a return to support mode
1110-1114: Dominant flow: first support and confirmation zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the market remains in recovery mode
1120: Dominant flow: first magnet and test zone | Gamma effect: confirmation above this zone opens room toward 1,130 to 1,150
1130-1150: Dominant flow: higher call zones | Gamma effect: next target zone with confirmation above 1,120
1160-1180: Dominant flow: higher follow-through zone | Gamma effect: additional upside with clear strength
1200-1240: Dominant flow: broader higher call zone | Gamma effect: mainly relevant if strength above 1,150 persists
1280: Dominant flow: further higher call zone | Gamma effect: longer exposure, not leading for Tuesday
Dealer Positioning
Dealer positioning in September improves on the index side, but remains protected on the options side. The AEX closes above 1,114, which makes 1,120 the first upper magnet zone again. At the same time, the options market remains heavily put-oriented.
As long as 1,110 to 1,114 holds, the market remains in recovery mode. Above 1,120, the market can look further toward 1,130 to 1,150. Below 1,110, 1,105 returns as support. Below 1,105, 1,100 comes back as the major support and test zone.
October 2026 Expiry
October remains an additional intermediate layer. The visible zones are again around 1,100, 1,110, 1,120, 1,130, 1,140, 1,150, 1,160, 1,180 and 1,200.
October does not change direction independently. This layer mainly confirms that 1,120 is again the first upper magnet zone. The market is above 1,110 and above 1,114, meaning direct pressure has clearly eased.
At the same time, the options market remains protected as long as the call-put ratio and open interest remain put-weighted. The index structure improves, but positioning remains cautious.
Total day volume: 34,863 contracts
Put activity: not leading as a standalone layer, but consistent with a clearly protected market structure
Call activity: mainly relevant on confirmation above 1,120, then toward 1,130 to 1,150 and 1,180
Structure: additional and confirming, but not independently direction-setting
Key zone: 1,114 to 1,120 as direct magnet and confirmation zone, with 1,110 to 1,114 as first support zone
Key Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: central support and confirmation | Gamma effect: above this zone, the broader short-term picture remains intact
1105: Dominant flow: lower support zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the market remains out of pullback mode
1110-1114: Dominant flow: first support and confirmation zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, recovery remains intact
1120: Dominant flow: first magnet zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the market regains more strength
1130-1150: Dominant flow: higher call zone | Gamma effect: next zone on clear confirmation above 1,120
1160-1180: Dominant flow: higher follow-through zone | Gamma effect: additional upside if strength persists
1200: Dominant flow: longer target zone | Gamma effect: more important for the coming weeks than for Tuesday
Dealer Positioning
Dealer positioning for October is mainly confirming. The layer underlines that 1,110 to 1,114 is now the first support and confirmation zone and that 1,120 again becomes the first magnet zone.
Above 1,120, more room opens toward 1,130 to 1,150 and then 1,160 to 1,180. Below 1,114, 1,110 returns as first support. Below 1,110, attention shifts to 1,105.
November 2026 Expiry
November is visible as an intermediate layer, but not leading. Visible activity is mainly located around 1,100, 1,110, 1,120, 1,140, 1,150, 1,160, 1,180, 1,200 and 1,240.
This layer supports the improved picture. 1,100 remains structural support. 1,105 remains an important lower support. 1,110 to 1,114 now becomes the first support and confirmation zone. 1,120 is the first magnet zone, with 1,130 to 1,150 as the next target zone on confirmation.
For Tuesday, November does not provide a separate signal. The layer confirms that the broader upside remains visible, but that the options market remains protected by put-weighted open interest.
Total open interest at the opening: 24,078 contracts
Put activity: very clearly present in existing positioning
Call activity: visible around 1,100, 1,110, 1,120, 1,140, 1,150, 1,160, 1,180, 1,200 and 1,240
Structure: additional intermediate layer, neutral to constructive but clearly protected
Key zone: 1,110 to 1,114 as first support and confirmation zone, 1,120 as first magnet zone and 1,130 to 1,150 as higher target zone
Key Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: structural support | Gamma effect: holding above this zone keeps the broader structure intact
1105: Dominant flow: lower support zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the market remains protected but stable
1110-1114: Dominant flow: first support and confirmation zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the recovery picture remains intact
1120: Dominant flow: first magnet zone on recovery | Gamma effect: confirmation above this zone makes 1,130 to 1,150 more important
1140-1160: Dominant flow: higher call zone | Gamma effect: additional room on confirmation above 1,120
1180-1200: Dominant flow: longer target zone | Gamma effect: broader upside if strength persists
1240: Dominant flow: higher long-term zone | Gamma effect: not leading for Tuesday
Dealer Positioning
Dealer positioning for November is supportive, but not leading. The layer shows that higher zones remain visible, but direct confirmation now first needs to take place around 1,120.
As long as 1,110 to 1,114 holds, the improvement remains intact. Above 1,120, 1,130 to 1,150 comes into view more strongly. Below 1,110, 1,105 returns as support. Below 1,105, attention shifts to 1,100.
December 2026 Expiry
December remains the longer layer. The key zones are mainly 1,100, 1,110, 1,120, 1,140, 1,160, 1,180, 1,200, 1,240, 1,280 and 1,300.
The longer upside remains clearly visible. But due to very put-weighted open interest, the longer structure remains protected. The AEX has confirmed 1,114 on a closing basis, but now needs to confirm 1,120 to make the longer picture stronger again.
Because open interest is very put-weighted, December remains clearly protected. The longer structure is neutral to constructive as long as 1,100 holds, but the market does not yet give a fully freely positive signal.
Total open interest at the opening: 24,078 contracts
Put activity: very dominant in existing positioning
Call activity: visible around 1,100, 1,110, 1,120, 1,140, 1,160, 1,180, 1,200, 1,240 and higher
Structure: neutral to constructive, but with clear protection
Key zone: 1,110 to 1,114 as first support and confirmation zone, 1,120 as first magnet zone and 1,130 to 1,150 as higher target zone on confirmation
Key Flow Levels
1100: Dominant flow: first longer confirmation and support | Gamma effect: above this zone, the longer picture remains intact
1105: Dominant flow: lower support zone | Gamma effect: above this zone, the market remains stable
1110-1120: Dominant flow: recovery and confirmation zone above 1,100 | Gamma effect: above this zone, the longer upside regains more meaning
1140-1160: Dominant flow: higher call zone | Gamma effect: extra recovery room if strength moves above 1,120
1180-1200: Dominant flow: longer target zone | Gamma effect: longer upside exposure if strength persists
1240: Dominant flow: higher long-term zone | Gamma effect: only important on stronger recovery above 1,200
1280-1300: Dominant flow: far long-term call activity | Gamma effect: longer-term exposure, not leading for Tuesday
Dealer Positioning
Dealer positioning for December remains protected. Longer call zones remain visible, but the very put-weighted positioning limits a freely bullish reading.
Above 1,120, the structure becomes stronger again. After that, 1,130 to 1,150 comes into view, followed by 1,160 to 1,200. Below 1,114, 1,110 returns as first support. Below 1,110, attention shifts to 1,105 and then 1,100.
Closing View
The AEX closed 0.2% higher on Monday at 1,115.42. This confirms the zone above 1,114 and brings 1,120 directly back into focus as the first magnet and test zone. Intraday, 1,118.21 was reached, while 1,110.10 held as the low.
The options market remains clearly protected. The call-put ratio remains 0.61 and open interest is very put-weighted with 3,951 calls versus 20,127 puts. The bias for Tuesday is therefore raised slightly, but not to a hard positive stance.
Highest probability: trading around 1,114 to 1,120, with 1,120 as the first magnet and test zone
Key magnet zone: 1,120 becomes the first direct magnet zone, with 1,130 to 1,150 as the higher target zone on confirmation above 1,120
Key support zone: 1,110 to 1,114 as first support and confirmation zone, with 1,105 as next support and 1,100 as major support and test zone
Options market bias: neutral to mildly positive, but clearly protected for Tuesday and neutral to mildly positive, but protected for the next 5 days
Why this matters: the AEX confirms 1,114 on a closing basis and brings 1,120 back into view, but the call-put ratio remains heavily put-weighted and open interest is very defensive
Expectation for Tuesday: neutral to mildly positive, but clearly protected as long as the AEX remains above 1,110 to 1,114, with 1,120 as the first magnet and test zone
