Markets
Market Overview
The Market Overview is the top-of-funnel page — one screen showing what the options market is doing across every major lens, today.
Live Options Flow
Live Options Flow streams every options trade as it prints. Use it to watch institutional positioning unfold in real time.
Unusual Options Activity
Unusual Options Activity (UOA) highlights options trading that stands out from typical activity. Use it to find contracts and spreads worth reviewing alongside price action, liquidity and upcoming events.
Trade Ideas
Trade Ideas is a feed of single-name setups distilled from flow, positioning, statistical patterns, anomalies, and AI signals.
Backtesting
Backtesting replays trade idea models, option strategies, flow signals, and chain-metric rules against historical data so you can test an idea before relying on it.
Workflow
Custom alerts
Alerts watch the live tape for you and ping you (email or in-app) the moment something matches your criteria.
Notifications
Notifications are the per-event records the platform produces when something you've subscribed to happens — a custom alert fires, a trade idea gets posted, a digest sends.
Watchlist
Your watchlist is the personal list of symbols Optionomics treats as "the names you care about". It powers the live watchlist strip in the left rail, the My symbols view of the Calendar, email digests, and the watchlist-only alerts.
Saved Views
A Saved View is a one-click snapshot of the filters, sort, and search you've applied to a list page — Live Options Flow, Unusual Activity, and any other tape-style screen.
