What Is Options Flow?

Options order flow represents the 6 to 10 million options contracts traded on a daily basis. That's a lot of trading volume!

With so many options contracts traded on a daily basis, how do we know which ones matter?

That's where InsiderFinance comes in. Underpinning the industry-leading InsiderFinance platform is a proprietary algorithm that intelligently processes and filters the options flow and dark pool prints to increase your probability of success.

Unlike other order flow tools that use the same cookie-cutter data source and basic filtering, we start with the raw feed (i.e. 6M+ options contracts and 100M+ equity prints traded each day) and use proprietary processing and filtering, developed by a trained Wall Street quant, to only show you the trades that have the potential to be market-moving.

Our proprietary algorithm helps you trade with the flow, not against it, by only displaying high conviction options trades and dark pool prints to drastically reduce noise, making it easier to make decisions.

Combined with Heat Score, our proprietary indicator of how aggressively a trade was executed, you’ll have a clear picture of how bullish or bearish institutions are on a ticker so you’re never trading against the large orders that drive price action.

Our algorithms do the heavy lifting for you so you can quickly identify market-moving trades without sorting through the noise.

While our focus is on helping you save time through intelligent processing, we understand some traders would like to perform the analysis themselves.
