RISK ANALYSIS
NVT Gamma Walls
NVT Hedge Radar
Neither score is at an extreme today. Neither axis is a forecast — this is where NVT sits on protection cost vs. fragility today.
Protection is priced in the fair band (4.28) — the move being priced is 1.51x this name's own median 21-trading-day move, and downside puts carry 1.5 IV points more than at-the-money, measured against this name's own rolling 21-trading-day realized moves (483 overlapping windows). Fragility reads resilient (3.38): it is trading 11% above its hedge wall on a wall graded MEDIUM for reliability, and its realized-vol regime is stable.
