Architecture, how to use it, and a worked example for finding a short strike.
Single-ticker options workbench on tickersrank.ai: a strike Γ expiration liquidity grid, a GEX/gamma-concentration view for whatever strike you land on, and a TAΒ·FA tab to sanity-check the underlying's trend and fundamentals β all for one symbol at a time.
Frontend β index.html +
app.js, plain HTML/CSS/vanilla JS, no build step or
framework (same convention as the rest of tickersrank.ai's static pages,
e.g. explore/). A single state object tracks
the current symbol, side, DTE range, and the payload cached per tab;
three tabs share one page and are toggled via switchTab()
rather than separate routes:
| Tab | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Liquidity | strike Γ expiration grid of mid premium + bid/ask liquidity ratio |
| GEX / Gamma | gamma-concentration bar chart + signed cumulative net-GEX curve for one expiration, with the clicked strike highlighted |
| TA Β· FA | TradingView chart, EMA/RSI/CCI/ADX + triple-screen trend read, and fundamentals (single names only) |
Backend β Strikers is powered by our own data services, not a client-side scrape: live broker option-chain data feeds the Liquidity and GEX/Gamma tabs, and a market-data/fundamentals provider feeds the TAΒ·FA tab and Triple Screen read. Results are cached briefly per ticker so rapid re-checks don't have to reload from the data provider on every click.
Chart rendering β the GEX/Gamma charts are rendered server-side as SVGs by the same renderer our SPX gamma-map Discord alerts use, so a strike/wall/curve looks identical whether you're seeing it here or on Discord.
Data caveats β Fundamentals are not applicable for index/futures tickers (shown as "Not applicable for index tickers" rather than an error). TradingView's free embedded widget doesn't render index/futures symbols cleanly, so SPX-style charts on the TAΒ·FA tab may look imperfect β this is accepted, not substituted with a proxy symbol, since the rest of the page is analyzing the real symbol's own levels. All data is delayed/best-effort, not a live execution surface.
Enter a ticker and go. Type a symbol in the Ticker field and hit Go (or pick one of the quick chips pulled from your leaders list). This loads the Liquidity tab by default.
Liquidity tab β find a strike.
GEX/Gamma tab β confirm the strike's positioning.
TA Β· FA tab β check the trend and fundamentals.
Originally written for Discord β kept here verbatim as a worked example of how the three tabs are meant to be used together.
How I use Strikers on Liquidity Grid | GEX/Gamma | TA & FA to find the best short strike
1. Know your stock first. Before you touch an options chain, check the stock on its own merits. Go to https://tickersrank.ai/leaders and use Track One Stock to pull up its rank, ranking breakdown, and a live TradingView chart β all on one page. This is your "should I even be looking at this ticker" gut check.
2. Open Strikers and set up your chain. Go to https://tickersrank.ai/strikers, type your ticker, and hit Go. Use the Calls / Puts toggle to pick your side, and the Range dropdown (30 / 90 / 180 / 365 days) to set how far out the grid looks. The grid itself is strike Γ expiration, so your actual DTE gets picked in the next step β by which expiration column you click into, not by a separate DTE field.
3. Find your strike in the Liquidity Grid. Scan the grid for a cell at the DTE you want to trade. Ideally you want dark green β "Very tight," meaning bid/ask liquidity β₯ 0.95. The tighter that ratio, the easier it is to get filled near mid instead of getting chopped up on the spread. Click that cell.
4. Confirm it against GEX/Gamma. Clicking a Liquidity cell drops you straight into the GEX/Gamma tab with your strike already marked β you'll see it labeled "BOT STRIKE" on the chart, alongside a Spot line for the current underlying price. The top chart shows Call GEX and Put GEX bars by strike, and the tallest bar on each side gets its value bolded β that's your wall (call wall above, put wall below). The second chart is the cumulative net GEX curve, with call-dominant strikes and put-dominant strikes color-coded, plus a Last Close marker and a dashed High Volatility Point line. Positive/rising curve = net long gamma (dealers tend to dampen moves, more support); negative/falling = net short gamma (moves can extend faster). I like to sit one strike beyond the wall on my side β past the tallest call bar for a call side, past the tallest put bar for a put side β for that extra cushion. If you need to nudge the strike, you don't have to go back to the grid: just retype it in the Highlight strike box on this tab and it reprices instantly. Expect to trade a little premium for that extra safety margin as you walk further from the money.
5. Sanity-check it with TA & FA. Last stop, the TA Β· FA tab β this is where you confirm the trend actually supports the side you're picking, not just the gamma structure. You get a live TradingView chart, EMA 8/21/50/200 stack + reclaim signal, RSI, CCI, ADX, and slope vs. SPY/QQQ, plus a Triple Screen read across 15m/60m/4h so you're not fighting a higher timeframe. For single names it also pulls fundamentals (P/E, PEG, market cap, avg volume, 3yr CAGR, dividend yield/payout/growth years, beta β not applicable on indices), and it'll show your ranking badge from Step 1 right there too, so you're never more than one tab away from "does the trend and the fundamentals agree with the strike I just picked."
