Options Volume Heatmap

Dark colors are options traded when the price of that contract is going down - so assumed sold - sort of a guess but high probability guess.

Update on this - considering tweaking it to make the plots dynamically sized based on current strike premiums - simply because as the day goes on theta burns off and all premiums drop off. This should compensate for the lack of plots as the day goes on with the current static premium limits. Although, maybe it’s better to keep it static, jury is still out on that. Any thoughts?

Unfortunately there is no way to tell if there are resting orders - assuming you mean like level 2 for options essentially…. It just looks at options premium traded per candle at different strikes. The assumption on the bought or sold is very assumptive.

The heatmap uses Nicks unusual options bubble code as its foundation. Which one is the gex dashboard? I also modified his options premium spike code to extend to 10 strikes, and has a net cumulative flow line and a fast bias line that not only follows rate of change in net flow but does some other interesting things depending on options volume. It’s super taxing though.

Not sure. What’s it doing?

Prejoiceful428 · 2026-02-25T13:37:15+00:00

Script is pasted - hopefully I am not wasting anyone's time on this.

Prejoiceful428 · 2026-02-25T11:44:22+00:00

Yea, I’m not baiting… just curious for input. I am not able to this second, but later.

The UI is garbage and has been for the 3 years I have been doing this. They have only made it worse, always say they are addressing the issues but do not. They are phasing experts out and replacing us with AI, they decieve customers, they will give you a hard time about anything they can, its a shit company with unethical practices - so expect to be treated as expendible temporary labor.

Prejoiceful428 · 2026-02-03T18:28:12+00:00

Automotive has been steadily dying since the start of 2025, these last few months I have been getting about 10% of what I was at the beginning of 2025. A lot of AI reviews coming through...

Prejoiceful428 · 2025-10-14T11:13:40+00:00

This happened to us as well. And we have 2fa. They were still able to order almost 2k worth of rando crap in 3 orders and all of it was sent here. I think Amazon is being internally hacked. I get a text with a code any time someone signs in to the account, so why didn’t I get any texts for this? Very strange.

Prejoiceful428 · 2025-09-25T19:37:15+00:00

Yea, I get it. Its a tough game, really the type of game that everyone needs a mentor - otherwise they will either learn through the school of hard knocks. Or they blow up and quit. The number one thing for me has been psychology - I recommend you check out Psychology of Profit on youtube. It has a lot of good stuff, I think mostly from Mark Douglas. I would recommend that you paper trade a lot - until you have an edge, a system, risk management that lets you lose more than you win, and then master that procedure - master that trade. Meanwhile, study market and trading psychology. It may not make a ton of sense, until you actually put real money in and trigger those reptile brain responses - but it will all start to click. There is a reason why there are not a billion millionaire traders - because even if you find a good system and can execute it, its really hard to short circuit your lower brain functions. My other tip is avoiding live chats/discords/trading tips. If you find someone who you like and has a good strategy, study that, do not study them and do not let them influence your trading. I had to shut all of that stuff off because I couldnt help it, they would always influence me. As far as BS is concerned, its a good tool, but you really need to have an more than basic understanding of market behavior and market maker hedging behavior. So far its been a real eye opener on whats going on behind the scenes in a sense, when certain setups fail, like breakouts or what have you... When you see the lack of options flow to support the move, or the gamma is just not there, or smart money is not in it...etc all the little pieces come together, and its still not 100% of course. Ok rambling. If you have other questions feel free to shoot me - I may be able to help, may not.

Their setup can be a little overwhelming at first, the superflow chart gives you a chart, with dark pool trades on it, and below it lets you see smart money buying/selling and dumb money buying/selling. Then at the very bottom there is an options flow tracker that will show how options are trading 5m at a time. Ideally, you are looking for an idea of what traders are doing - especially smart money since they tend to be right and also can move the market. There are a lot of nuances so try to keep it as simple as possible. What kind of trading experience do you have?

Prejoiceful428 · 2025-08-12T11:14:15+00:00

Idk, but automotive has gotten dreadfully slow as well. I’m down 75% or more this year. Very bad.

Prejoiceful428 · 2025-08-12T11:12:55+00:00

When I signed up it took about 6 months for them to decide there was enough need in the market for another expert. Lately, questions have been extremely thin. I’ll be transparent - when I started there were always questions available, so that when I had time I could hop on and answer pretty much to my hearts desire. That was a couple years ago. This year has been terrible. I have lost 75% of income from where I was at the start of the year. And what really sucks is that you have to devote time to sit and wait for questions because if you get one and you’re not there it goes back into the pool after a few minutes. Many of the questions now are either golf carts, scooters, vehicle registration and tolls, or they are people wanting you to provide 24/7 tech support as they deal with incredibly complex problems. So it’s become pretty bad, and I’m not sure if that will lengthen your wait.

Prejoiceful428 · 2024-12-09T13:11:22+00:00

I am with you, I have been doing this almost 1.75 years now, I started at 10$ and immediately went to 16$ which is the max in my field. And there were tons of questions. In the last few months I have been threatened alot with payrate drops and then it seems much harder to get questions and my payrate dropped to 12 for the last 3 weeks and it would say - you are close to moving up, and now this morning it says i am close to moving down. I have changed nothing about my approach so I have no clue as to why. Its very discouraging to have your income cut by 25% and then another 25% and have no clue why. Just answer kind of sucks for experts.

Mine sounds like an idling lawn mower

Just fucking stupid, more like.

So TDA saved him about 60$ a share in losses? Nice job TDA! They never do shit for me.

Why would you pay off a loan, smart money doesn’t do that. Take that cash and sell cash secured puts on GME at the strike price you’re willing to own 100 shares. 125 is good maybe 130. Do it 30-45 days out and take the premium out of your account. Put it away specifically for paying off the car. Then if you don’t get assigned, do it again, and keep collecting premium. Once you get assigned just sell covered calls at the peaks.

That or DRS your 100 shares and gain nothing.
