What this page is

The whole option chain as colour: every strike's OI, OI change, volume or IV as a tile — the walls jump out instantly.

How to use it

  1. 1Choose the metric with the toggle: OI, ΔOI (change), Volume or IV.
  2. 2Calls are on the left in red, puts on the right in green (the Sensibull convention). Colour intensity = that cell ÷ the column's maximum.
  3. 3The ATM ring marks the at-the-money strike; the chips give spot, max pain and PCR.

How to read it

  • The darkest put cell below spot is the support wall; the darkest call cell above spot is the resistance wall.
  • In ΔOI mode, negative change renders grey (unwinding). ΔOI needs a start-of-day baseline — a note tells you when there is none yet.
  • IV mode shows the smile: cells getting darker away from ATM = fatter tails being priced.

💡 Pro tip:Flip to Volume mode near expiry — a strike with high volume but small OI is intraday churn, not a wall.

Ye page kya hai

Poori option chain colour me: har strike ka OI, OI change, volume ya IV ek tile — walls turant dikh jaati hain.

Kaise use karein

  1. 1Toggle se metric chuno: OI, ΔOI (change), Volume ya IV.
  2. 2Calls left me laal, puts right me hare (Sensibull convention). Colour ki gehrai = wo cell ÷ column ka maximum.
  3. 3ATM ring at-the-money strike dikhata hai; chips me spot, max pain aur PCR.

Kaise padhein

  • Spot ke neeche sabse gehra put cell = support wall; spot ke upar sabse gehra call cell = resistance wall.
  • ΔOI mode me negative change grey dikhta hai (unwinding). ΔOI ko din ki shuruaat ka baseline chahiye — note batata hai jab abhi nahi hai.
  • IV mode smile dikhata hai: ATM se door cells gehre = fat tails price ho rahe hain.

💡 Pro tip:Expiry ke paas Volume mode dekho — high volume par chhota OI wali strike intraday churn hai, wall nahi.
