Mapping Volatility Through Time: Implied Volatility Heatmaps

Glassnode introduces two new implied volatility (IV) heatmap metrics—IV Moneyness Heatmap and IV Delta Heatmap—that visualize how options markets price risk across strikes and maturities over time, rather than at a single point. These tools help identify volatility regimes, such as periods of calm, stress, and transitions between them. The heatmaps display IV using color gradients, with red indicating high volatility and blue indicating low volatility. Key patterns include elevated put-side IV during drawdowns (signaling hedging demand), tail-risk repricing in deep out-of-the-money options, and regime shifts that inform trading strategies like hedging in low-vol environments or selling premium in high-vol periods. Available in Glassnode Studio, these metrics provide a dynamic view of market expectations and risk sentiment.

Tracking Volatility Regimes: Gamma Exposure Heatmap

Glassnode introduces a new Gamma Exposure (GEX) Strike Heatmap, a proprietary tool designed to track how dealer hedging flows influence crypto market volatility over time. Unlike static snapshots, this visualization shows how gamma exposure shifts across strike prices as markets move, helping traders identify volatility regimes are likely to change. GEX measures whether dealers are net long (positive GEX) or short (negative GEX) gamma. Positive GEX acts as a volatility dampener, leading to range-bound conditions, while negative GEX accelerates price moves, often causing liquidity cascades. The heatmap reveals key features like persistent positive gamma “walls” that stabilize price and expanding negative zones that signal potential breakouts. An accompanying chart tracks total GEX over time, indicating whether the market is in a high or low volatility regime based on dealer positioning. Available for BTC, ETH, XRP, and SOL in Glassnode Studio, this tool offers systematic and discretionary traders deeper insight into how options flows affect short-term price action.
