Ticker Search

What it is

Ticker Search is your deep-dive tool. Enter any symbol to pull the full history of detected unusual options activity for that stock — filterable, chartable, and exportable. It answers the question: is today's flow a one-off, or part of a pattern?

What you can filter

• Date Range: Zoom in on a specific period — around an earnings event, a news catalyst, or the past 30 days of accumulation.
• Contract Type: Calls only, puts only, or both.
• Pattern Type: Filter to Golden Sweeps and Sweeps only to focus on the most aggressive, time-sensitive flows.
• Min Premium: Raise the threshold to $100K+ or $500K+ to filter out smaller noise trades.
• Min Score: Default is 85. Raise to 90+ for maximum conviction only.

Reading the chart

Flow events are overlaid on the price chart as colored markers: Green = bullish flows (calls bought at the ask), Red = bearish flows (puts bought at the ask), Gray = neutral/closing flows (sold at the bid or midpoint fills).

Look for clusters of green markers below a breakout — this is institutions accumulating before the move. Multiple flows at the same strike and expiry over several days = high conviction position building.

Pro workflow

1. See a ticker showing up repeatedly on the Live Flow feed or Heat Map — open Ticker Search for that symbol.
2. Set the date range to the past 30 days. Count how many separate unusual activity events have been detected.
3. Filter to Sweeps + Golden Sweeps, Calls only. If there are 5+ bullish aggressive flows in 30 days, that is institutional accumulation — not noise.
4. Look at which strikes and expirations keep repeating. If the same strike keeps appearing with the same DTE window, that is the target institutions are positioning for.
5. Export to CSV for further analysis or backtesting against price movement.
