What it adds

Add volatility sensitivity to the chart

Vanna describes how option delta changes as implied volatility changes. The VEX heatmap lays that exposure out by strike and time behind the candles; the Vanna markers put the modeled levels beside price. Each has its own switch, so you can keep either on without touching GEX.

VEX by strike and time

Vanna exposure cells behind the candles, with the coming expirations as slices beside the chart.

Vanna markers

Modeled Vanna levels for the active ticker, drawn beside price.

Expiration window

The automatic window of 0 to 45 days to expiration, or one expiration you pick in the popup.

Two switches

The VEX heatmap and the Vanna markers come and go on their own, without changing the GEX, DEX or flow layers.

Futures levels

With futures levels on, the Vanna levels of SPX, NDX, RUT and DJX map onto their futures contracts too.

How it works

Three steps

  1. Open the ticker

    Open the chart. The extension reads the active symbol every 8 seconds.

  2. Turn on VEX heatmap or Vanna markers

    Keep the automatic expiration window or choose one expiration.

  3. Compare with GEX and price

    Read vanna beside the walls and the flip instead of on its own.

Know the limit

Vanna estimates depend on the options data and the model. They are research context, never a forecast of the next move.
