OpticAlpha
OpticAlpha is a web-based financial data terminal that unifies real-time market intelligence for active traders. It streams over 12 live data channels, including unusual options flow, gamma exposure (GEX), crypto liquidation maps, CFTC forex COT data, and FRED macro indicators. A subscription costs $10.50 per month with a 14-day free trial, requiring no credit card initially. The platform features a GEX dashboard that highlights call and put walls, gamma flips, and a squeeze radar scoring setups from 0 to 100. Options flow surveillance filters trades by size, premium, and open interest, while a Flow Score leaderboard ranks tickers by daily activity. Crypto tools offer liquidation heatmaps, whale alerts, and orderflow analysis with cumulative volume delta and orderbook depth. For equities, a session-aware Hot List surfaces gainers, losers, and unusual volume, supported by Conviction Radar that triggers on multi-signal agreement. Company research provides financial health scores, valuation multiples, and price targets. Additional modules cover analyst ratings, insider trades, congressional filings, retail sentiment, and an economic calendar with Fed funds probabilities. OpticAlpha caters to discretionary traders seeking a affordable, no-code consolidation of diverse data sources. While it lacks an API for programmatic access, its turnkey dashboard reduces the need for multiple tools, making it suitable for individual investors and active market participants who rely on real-time sentiment and positioning data.
