On the Options Chain Report, key levels appear as on-chart labels in the Gamma Exposure (GEX) section and in heatmap tooltips (Price Direction Bias, Weight Distribution, Options Activity). For navigation and screenshots, see Navigation tips.

​
Score

Shown in heatmap tooltips and the Weight Distribution → Score view. The BigDipperOptions score is a composite of strike-level inputs—including implied volatility (IV), open interest, gamma / GEX, volume, and more. It is designed to simplify research: compare strikes here without sorting raw broker columns one by one.
  • Higher values → more combined positioning and participation at that strike/expiry
  • Step 1: screen with score, GEX, and filters on BigDipperOptions
  • Step 2: confirm live IV, IV Rank, and quotes at your brokerage before trading
  • Experimental—relative insight only
