quantedOptions Profile on your own futures chart
Market-maker gamma levels, drawn on the futures chart you already trade.
What it shows
quantedOptions Profile is the Orderflow Plugin's on-chart study. It draws a ladder of exposure bars at the right of your chart, one per strike and placed at the futures price, with the live ATM straddle band and a small data panel in a chart corner. It runs inside Bookmap, MotiveWave, NinjaTrader 8, ATAS X, Quantower and Sierra Chart, and a TradingView overlay is included with every key.
What it is built from
On ES and MES: licensed CBOE one-minute data with market-maker positioning, from SPX, computed and delivered every minute. On the other families: computed from data consolidated across every US options exchange: open interest and volume.
Reading
How to read it
- Same reading order as the dashboards: regime, nodes, band, change. 'Net 0DTE GEX' in the panel is the regime.
- The ladder is the book strike by strike: positive bars to the right of the axis, negative to the left.
- The straddle band is the move the options market has priced for the session; the nodes are where the hedging sits around it.
- The panel's first line says what you are looking at: 'ES · from SPX 0DTE 09-03'.
Settings
What each setting does
| Setting | Options | What it changes |
|---|---|---|
| Ladder | Bars, Strip, Off | Bars draws the full ladder; Strip draws the same shape in a slim column; Off leaves the panel and the heatmap bands. |
| Show data panel | on / off (default on) | Shows or hides the panel in the chart corner. |
| Color theme | Amber, Fiesta, Classic, Emerald, Mono, Custom | The colours of the bars; Custom uses your own positive and negative colours for GEX, CEX, VEX and DEX. |
