Options Activity Scanner

What Options Activity Tells You

The names with the heaviest options volume are where traders are most actively positioning. By looking at how that volume splits between calls and puts, you get a read on directional bias — heavy call volume points to bullish positioning, heavy put volume to bearish or hedging activity.

The scanner ranks the most active names by total options volume and, for each, shows the call/put split, the put/call ratio, and the IV rank. A put/call ratio below 0.7 reads bullish, above 1.2 bearish, and in between neutral.

• Ranked by total options volume — the most active names first
• Call/put volume split and put/call ratio for directional bias
• IV rank shows where implied volatility sits versus its 1-year range
• Cross-reference with the News feed for catalyst context

How to Read the Options Activity

A name near the top of the list with a low put/call ratio and a high call percentage is showing concentrated bullish positioning — often ahead of earnings or a catalyst. A high IV rank on the same name means the market is also pricing in larger expected moves.

Always cross-reference options activity with the technical setup. A bullish read on a stock in a proper base or pullback is far more actionable than the same read on an extended, overheated chart. The options data tells you the what; the chart tells you the when.
