Option Stalker Pro (OSP)

New Trade Signals

We’ll prove that our new trade signals are incredible on Tuesday August 20th during a live online event. We’ll take symbol requests and you’ll see the buy, sell and exit arrows on the charts. If you can’t wait that long, take the two-week free trial and try them out now.

Trust is formed over time. The more you use our trade signals, the more you’ll trust them. Set global alerts for all of the stocks in one of our powerful searches with a few clicks. You can do the same for stocks that are in your watchlist or your custom searches. This is a very efficient way to trade. When one of the stocks has a new alert, you’ll see it in the alert window. The signals are timely and the stocks often perform right away giving you instant cushion. Once you’re in the trade, set an exit alert based on the trade signals. You’ll ride winners longer and you’ll exit losers earlier.

You’ll notice in our charts that the signals catch reversals beautifully. They are also “sticky” so they will keep you in trending stocks longer.

Don’t take our word for it, try out our new trade signals during the free trial or attend the live event.

New Features

• Breakout/down Bal Scanners – These preconfigured scanners finds stocks with 1OTL Bal automated trendlines that have been breached in the last 10 days or less. 
• Hist IV (Indicator/Study) – This study uses displays the average option IV on the daily (D1) chart series.
• IV Spike (Column) – This variable gauges the spread between the stock’s historical volatility and the current options implied volatility (IV) for at the money options. It uses options data from the prior day and it is a D1 study. When the stock movement is dull and the option IVs are rising, it could be a warning sign that news is pending. If the spread is widening an orange dot will appear in the column. 
• 1OP Cross Alerts & Columns – These new variables provide in-list views for stock 1OP conditions. The 1OP Signal column will show Bullish when 1OP2 > 1OP1 (there is a bullish 1OP cross), 1OSI > 0 (the stock has relative strength), Price > D1 EMA(8) (it is trending upward on the daily). Divergences happen about 25% of the time for stocks and can be a powerful indicator of trend strength. The 1OP Div column would register Bullish when 1OP2 < 1OP1, 1OSI > 0 and Price > EMA(8).

Visit www.oneoption.com/release-notes for a complete list of updates.

New Alert Conditions

This update is the start of a larger project that integrates Custom Scanner variables, Table Column Options, and Alert Rules. We have started with several highly-requested values: Strength vs SPY, LRSI, Trade Signal, 1OVol, SMAs, and of course simple Price Alerts. These values, which are calculated on the server, are the same used as variables in the Custom Scanner. Now, you can create alerts with these values and use theme as columns in your Scanner, Watchlist and HUD tables. We will roll out more variables as the year goes on. Please let us know what you think!

The T-> F Required checkbox allows you to set alerts even if the trigger rule is already TRUE. If it is checked, any TRUE alerts will not immediately trigger, and instead will wait for the rule to become FALSE and return to TRUE.

Multi-Rule Alerts

Alerts rules can be combined to create a single alert which triggers only when all the rules are TRUE. This advanced feature allows for fine-tuned alerts enhance your ability to find trades exactly when conditions align. 

Alert History

With so many new alerts, the popups can quickly become an annoyance. Instead, you can now view all your triggered alerts in a single panel. This panel will nest in your Workspace. There is an added benefit to this: Your triggered alert history is now easily visible so you won’t forget alerts that trigger!

Alert Console

The Alerts Console is a similar list that shows both Triggered and Open alerts. Here, you can Edit and Delete alerts. Right-Click Alert Console table area to remove alerts. You can select multiple rows at once using CTRL or Shift. Click the Settings button to adjust Alert Settings.

Extended Table Columns

The variables offered with Alerts are now also available as customizable table columns. Right-Click the table headers in Scanners, Watchlists, and Chart HUDs to edit columns and select Trade Signal (B/S), Strength vs SPY, LRSI and 1OVol for any timeframe and daily SMAs. You can save these columns with your Workspace. These columns reflect server values used for Custom Search and refresh every minute.

Quick Alert Creation

Right-Click any chart or table column to quickly create an alert. The New Alert Window will open pre-filled with the clicked symbol and variable. Right-Click the table headers to apply an alert to all symbols in a list.

Option Stalker Pro

Automated Trendlines

Pete has labored tirelessly the past few months to develop this feature. By back-engineering his decades of experience, he has created rules to auto-drawn trendlines in OSP and save traders time by vastly reducing the amount of trendlines required to manually draw. To use this feature, simply toggle between 1OTL Now and 1OTL Past at the bottom of the chart. Automated trendlines are applied to Daily Charts only. Read Pete’s article in The System, Automated Trendlines, for more information.

New Preconfigured Scanners

The Scanners panel in OSP has been given a major overhaul. Enjoy new ways to scan for stocks with new Day and Swing Preconfigured Scanners.

Visit the Glossary for scanner descriptions.

Chart Symbol Tagging

The tag list is a special watchlist that resets each day, and traders use it to track relevant stocks within the trading session. Previously, you could only tag stocks from Scanners or Watchlists using the Plus (+) icon. Now, you can also tag stocks straight from chart via Right-Click.

Chat Room

Top Symbols

The Top Symbols lists give users a new angle to analyze the chat room and incorporate its data into their trading regiment. These lists scan messages for SYMBOL links (using the style applied via the blue A button or preceded by “$”) and compiles a list of top-mentioned symbols in descending order. The results can be filtered to only include symbols accompanied by an entry badge. The counts for Long and Short entires are also included in green and red columns.

Updated Quotes

To streamline the chat room by reducing the amount of clutter and unnecessary blank space, we’ve streamlined quoted message in a couple of ways: (1) Quoted messages are reduced to text-only and only a short excerpt is included. (2) These messages are displayed in a single paragraph at the bottom of the newly composed message.

Option Stalker Pro

Workspace Save/Load

From the File menu, you can now ‘Save Workspace’ to save the charts, indicators and other settings currently present in your workspace layout. When ‘Auto-Load Workspace’ is checked, the most recently saved workspace will load at startup.

Intraday Price Lines

You can now display price levels for Previous Day High, Previous Day Low, and Daily SMA 20, 50, 100, and 200 on intraday charts. Simply Right-click the chart to apply.

New Study: Laguerre RSI (LRSI)

Apply the LRSI via ‘All Studies’ on a chart. Learn more about this indicator with this video.

New Study: Keybar

Apply Keybar via ‘1O Studies’ on a chart. A key bar has a greater than average ATR, a large body relative to the intraday range and better than average volume. Typically these bars resulted from a trend day that saw persistent buying/selling. They tend to continue in the direction, particularly if that candle coincides with a breakout above a trendline or a major moving average. When these candles reverse, it happens very quickly. If the open from that candle is reversed, the follow through in the opposite direction will last for at least a few days. When these candles appear at the extreme of a range, use extra caution and confirm the directional strength. Key bars are displayed as candlesticks without fill.

Volume Bug Fix

User reported issues with volume bars becoming either unresponsive or inaccurate. Volume bars now reliably display correct volume across all APIs. Thank you for your feedback!

Persistent Trendlines

Trendlines now are saved on a chart. If you draw a trendline on ABC, change chart symbol to view stock XYZ, then return to view chart for ABC, the trendline you drew will remain. We hope to apply this across different timeframes in the future. Stay tuned!

Earnings Icons Visibility Toggle
