Max-pain strike (per-expiry)

The strike at which option writers profit most at expiry. Use ?expiry=0dte for the cheapest path (read straight from the 0DTE levels cache), ?expiry=all for a per-expiry table covering every active expiration, or pass a specific expiry token (e.g. 28MAR25) to also receive the full pain curve by strike.
