RISK ANALYSIS
INTU Gamma Walls
INTU Hedge Radar
Fragility reads high; protection is priced cheap. Neither axis is a forecast — this is where INTU sits on protection cost vs. fragility today.
Protection is priced in the cheap band (3.33) — the move being priced is 1.94x this name's own median 20-trading-day move, and downside puts carry 0.6 IV points more than at-the-money, measured against this name's own rolling 20-trading-day realized moves (484 overlapping windows). Fragility reads fragile (6.78): it is trading 7% below its hedge wall on a wall graded HIGH for reliability, and its realized-vol regime is stable.
