What it adds
See more than one level at a time
A heatmap lays modeled gamma exposure out by strike and time. The extension draws it on a canvas pinned to the plot area, with columns for the coming expirations in a pad to the right of the candle time axis. Concentrations show that a few reference lines cannot.
Expiration slices
Columns for the coming expirations sit in a pad to the right of the candle time axis.
Its own switch
The GEX heatmap has its own switch and refreshes every 5 minutes while the tab is visible.
Aligned to the chart
The cells stay on their strikes as you pan and zoom, and the GEX walls draw over them when that layer is on.
The VEX view beside it
The VEX heatmap, the vanna exposure view, is a separate layer with its own page and switch.
How it works
Three steps
Turn on the GEX heatmap
Keep the GEX histogram and walls on if you want the levels drawn over the cells.
Set the expirations
The GEX expirations you pick in the popup shape the levels; the heatmap shows the coming expirations as slices.
Read concentration, not certainty
Use the cells beside price and the walls. A hot cell is a concentration of modeled exposure.
Know the limit
Heatmap intensity is modeled exposure in the selected view. A hot cell is research context, never a price target.
