Options flow analysis, unusual activity detection, and strategy evaluation for equities and ETFs.
What it does
OptionsHawk monitors and analyzes options market activity to surface actionable trading intelligence, including:
Unusual activity detection — identify large or out-of-the-ordinary options trades that may signal institutional positioning or informed flow
Flow analysis — track put/call ratios, volume vs open interest, and net premium by strike and expiration
Sweep detection — flag aggressive multi-exchange sweep orders that indicate urgency from large buyers
Strategy identification — recognize spreads, straddles, strangles, and other multi-leg structures in the flow
Earnings plays — analyze pre-earnings options positioning, implied move vs historical move, and skew shifts
Usage
Ask your agent to analyze options flow and activity:
"Show me the biggest unusual options activity today across all equities"
"What is the put/call ratio and net premium flow for AAPL this week?"
"Alert me when there are sweep orders over $1M on any tech stock"
"Analyze the options skew for TSLA heading into earnings"
"What are the most active strikes and expirations for SPY right now?"
