Options chain · Free to browse
Look up any optionable symbol, choose an expiration, and see calls and puts by strike with implied volatility, volume and open interest, plus put/call ratios and a top-10 unusual activity table. Free to use, no login required.
The Alerts Pro Options page is a free options chain viewer by symbol with expirations, strikes, implied volatility, volume, open interest, put/call ratios and a table of unusual activity (volume of at least 100 contracts and at least 3x open interest). Data is delayed and indicative, not real-time OPRA.
Why use it
Each benefit below is a feature that exists on the Options page today.
Type a ticker (1 to 6 letters) and get calls and puts side by side by strike, with IV, open interest, volume, last, bid and ask. No login needed.
A dropdown lists the available expirations for the symbol, defaulting to the nearest. Switch with one click and the whole page reloads for that date.
Show ±10, ±20, ±40 strikes around the underlying price, or all. In-the-money cells are shaded so the money line is easy to spot.
A top-10 table of contracts with at least 100 contracts traded and volume at least 3x open interest, with the volume/OI ratio and IV shown.
Put/call ratio by volume and by open interest, average IV within ±15% of price, and the underlying price versus the previous close, in four tiles.
The Alerts plan unlocks the live alerts bubble at the top of the Options page, so signals sit right above the chain you are studying.
From ticker to chain in a few clicks.
Type a ticker or tap SPY, QQQ, AAPL, TSLA, NVDA or IWM. The page looks up the underlying price and the listed expirations.
The nearest expiration loads first. Pick any other date from the dropdown to reload the chain for that expiration.
Check the underlying price, put/call ratios for volume and open interest, and average implied volatility around the current price.
See the top contracts by volume where volume is at least 3x open interest, then jump to that strike in the chain.
Calls on the left, puts on the right, strikes in the middle. Narrow the view with the strikes-near-price selector. It refreshes about every 15 seconds while the tab is open.
