From now we can provide the options metrics
on your charts
You'll never need to switch windows for basic option chain data while charting on TradingView. Familiar from:
Designed by experienced options traders using platforms like TastyTrade, IBKR, TD or ThinkOrSwim but charting technicals on Tradingview
We've innovated the probability visualization
Every curve is calculated via Black-Sholes based real option chain data for the given instrument. Skewed expiries are filtered out, so you can focus on the most relevant data.
- Expected move curve (brown)
- Standard deviation 1 curve (gray)
- Precise interpolated OTM delta curves (blue)
- You can select the preferred OTM delta range
Dynamically Updating IVR Panel
As you switch between the charts of your favorite stocks, the IVR dashboard's automatically updating data changes accordingly. This way, you can always see the following information:
- IVRank with TastyTrade formula
- Implied Volatility Index average
- Vertical CALL vs. PUT Pricing Skew
- Horizontal IVx Skew (for Calendar + Diagonal strategies)
- ... and detailed tooltip information!
Colored and detailed tooltips everywhere
You will be well informed about what you see there and why. For every expiration day we are displaying:
- Exact DTE & Expiry Date
- IVx value of the given expiration
- Vertical CALL vs. PUT Pricing Skew % for the given expiration
- Horizontal IVx Skew %
- ... and detailed interpolated + calculated delta, std1, expmove values!
Immediately, you can find and catch Volatility Skew
We have a new metric that examines which monthly expiration indicates a "Delta Skew Twist" where the 16 delta deviates from the monthly STD. This is important because, under normal circumstances, the 16 delta is positioned between the expected move and the standard deviation (STD1) line (see Exp.mv & 1STD exact definitions above). However, if the interpolated 16 delta line exceeds the STD1 line either upwards or downwards, it represents a special case of vertical skew on the option chain.
Calendar? Diagonal? No problem!
Colored labels will help you, we are searching the best horizontal IVX skew dates. In options pricing, it is typically expected that the implied volatility (IVx) increases for options with later expiration dates. This means that options further out in time are generally more expensive. At TanukiTrade, we refer to the phenomenon where this expectation is reversed—when the IVx decreases between two consecutive expirations—as Horizontal Skew or IVx Skew.
Build your custom screener or use our build-in preset
The screener aims to offer a comprehensive view of the current state of options for the 160+ implemented instruments, including implied volatility index (IVx), IV rank (IVR), options skew, and expected market movements, which are objectively measured as detailed below. The options metrics displayed may be familiar to options traders from various major brokerage platforms such as TastyTrade, IBKR, TOS, Tradier, TD Ameritrade, Schwab, etc.

We've created 'Lite' versions of all our paid 'Pro' TradingView option
trader tools, which
are available for free without any restrictions for the following tickers: AAPL,
AMZN, TSLA, DIA, ORCL.
Aside from this restriction, the
'Pro' and 'Lite' versions are identical in all other functionalities and
appearances.
If you like the 'Lite' version, you can subscribe to 'Pro' back here at tanukitrade.com for a small monthly fee for 160+ liquid tickers.
Yes, you can upgrade to yearly or downgrade to monthly, or even extend your plan any time by using our Members Area page once logged in.
Unlike other invite-only indicators available on TradingView (which only use data available on TradingView), our indicators require continuous manual updates for external data processed and displayed for each instrument. This incurs significant ongoing costs, besides paying for the data itself. We cannot provide sustainable service entirely for free, which is why we offer our 'Pro' indicators for a symbolic maintenance fee. The 'Lite' versions remain free for anyone to use for trial purposes, so you can see what you will get in the 'Pro' version if you wish to support our work.
Yes, our options overlay and options screener TradingView toolkit is useful for both beginner and advanced options traders, as the displayed metrics and data are customizable (toggle on/off).
According to feedback from advanced options traders, it significantly shortens the daily search process and can be integrated into their existing system, eliminating the need to manually extract data from the brokerage and apply it to the TradingView chart. You can immediately see the key metrics: IVR, IVX, Delta, Skew.
Of course! Our indicators primarily draw curves for future expirations, overlaying labels, tooltips, and possibly a side mini dashboard to show key metrics like IVR, IVX, Skew. Therefore, they do not interfere with past or current data and indicators.
Absolutely not. There is no indicator, algorithm, system, or strategy that can predict markets with guaranteed accuracy.
We are the first provider of real option indicators for TradingView; however, our tools cannot guarantee profits by just using them blindly.
We do not recommend blindly following any tool. Trading itself is risky, and past performance does not guarantee future results.
No, learning options trading requires significant time and extensive knowledge. However, our options indicator, with its visualization tools, can speed up this process by providing valuable data and metrics related to the options chain while you chart the underlying asset.
If you are a complete beginner, we recommend starting with the TastyTrade's 78-video free series called 'Mike and his whiteboard': watch here. Our Options Toolkit is an excellent complement to this learning process.
We cannot take on the risk of directly or indirectly influencing you in the use of options strategies. Our options toolkit aims to facilitate options charting for traders by providing valuable information on the options chain status with minimal delay during open hours.

There are two reasons for this, and one is beyond our control.
Brokerage Calculation Differences:
Every brokerage has slight differences in how they calculate metrics like IV and
IVX. If you open three windows for TOS, TastyTrade, and IBKR side by side, you will
notice that the values are minimally different. We had to choose a standard, so we
use the formulas and mathematical models described by TastyTrade when analyzing the
options chain and drawing conclusions.
Option-data update frequency:
According to TradingView's regulations and guidelines, we can update external data a
maximum of 5 times per day. We strive to use these updates in the most optimal
way:
-(1st update) 15 minutes after U.S. market open
-(2nd, 3rd, 4th updates) 1.5–3 hours during U.S. market open hours
-(5th update) 10 minutes before market close.
You don’t need to refresh your window; our last refreshed data pack is always
automatically applied to your indicator, and you can see the time elapsed since the
last update at the bottom of your indicator.
Since no one has visualized the option chain on TradingView besides us, we are pioneers in this area. Similarly, no one has provided real option data to TradingView yet.
The method of filling gaps using linear interpolation (e.g., missing delta gaps in the option chain to visually determine the exact 16 delta), the probability cloud, the STD1 and Exp.move curves, and the Delta Skew Twist + Delta correlation are all exclusive innovations by Gregory Peter Szilagyi, the founder of TanukiTrade.
The indicator extracts raw options data from an external data provider (ORATS), processes and refines the delayed data package using pineseed, and sends it to TradingView, visualizing the data using specific formulas or interpolated values (e.g., delta distances).
This method of incorporating options data into a visualization framework is unique and entirely innovative on TradingView. The indicator aims to offer a comprehensive view of the current state of options for the implemented instruments, including implied volatility (IV), IV rank (IVR), options skew, and expected market movements, which are objectively measured.
The options metrics we display may be familiar to options traders from various major brokerage platforms such as TastyTrade, IBKR, TOS, Tradier, TD Ameritrade, Schwab, etc.
