About The Options Report

The easiest way to find the day's top options activity.

Our Mission

The Options Report was built for one simple reason: finding the day's top gaining options contracts shouldn't require hunting across multiple financial platforms. Unlike traditional finance websites that bury options data deep inside their interfaces, we put it right in front of you.

Every trading day you can instantly see the top gaining contracts, the most active contracts by volume, and the contracts with the highest open interest — all on one clean page.

Who It's For

The Options Report is for anyone who wants quick, reliable access to options market data — whether you're a complete beginner looking to understand what's moving in the market, or an experienced trader who wants a fast way to spot the day's most active contracts.

The Story

The Options Report started as a solo project. As an options trader, I kept noticing that other platforms would present inaccurate, illiquid contracts as the day's top gainers — giving a misleading picture of what was actually happening in the market. I decided to take matters into my own hands, and started by posting the day's top gaining contracts on X. That account grew into the website you're looking at today: a simple, accurate, and easy-to-use platform for options traders.

The Data

This website is completely free to use. Options data is sourced from a professional third-party market data provider and refreshes every minute throughout the trading day, so you're always seeing a current picture of market activity.

Options Trading Glossary

Every key term you'll see across The Options Report, explained in plain language.

Ask

The lowest price a seller is currently willing to accept for an options contract. Buyers who place a market order are typically filled at or near the ask. For example, if the ask on a call is $2.50, purchasing one contract would cost $250, since each contract represents 100 shares. Together with the bid, the ask defines the spread — the transaction cost of entering and exiting a position.

Bid

The highest price a buyer is currently willing to pay for an options contract. When you sell a contract at market price you typically receive the bid. The difference between the bid and ask is called the "spread" — a smaller spread generally means the contract is more actively traded.

Call Option

A contract that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy 100 shares of the underlying stock at a set price — the strike price — on or before the contract's expiration date. The buyer pays a premium (the contract's price) for this right, and that premium is the most they can lose. Traders typically buy calls when they believe a stock's price will rise, since the contract generally gains value as the stock climbs above the strike price. For example, if you buy a $100 call and the stock rises to $110, the contract now carries $10 of intrinsic value per share — $1,000 per contract — and can be sold or exercised for a profit.

Contract

A single options contract represents 100 shares of the underlying stock. This is why a contract priced at $2.50 costs $250 to purchase. All volume and open interest numbers on this website refer to the number of contracts, not individual shares.

Delta

A Greek that measures how much an option's price is expected to change for every $1 move in the underlying stock. A Delta of 0.50 means the option gains roughly $0.50 if the stock rises $1, and loses roughly $0.50 if the stock falls $1. Call Deltas range from 0 to 1 and put Deltas from 0 to -1, with contracts deeper in the money carrying Deltas closer to 1 (or -1). Many traders also read Delta as a rough estimate of the probability that a contract finishes in the money.

ETF

An Exchange Traded Fund — a single security that holds a basket of stocks or other assets and trades on an exchange like an individual stock. Because ETFs such as SPY (which tracks the S&P 500) and QQQ (which tracks the Nasdaq 100) represent the broader market, their options are among the most heavily traded in the entire market. The Stocks/ETFs filter on The Options Report lets you separate the two.

Expiration Date

The date on which an options contract ceases to exist. An in-the-money contract held through expiration is typically exercised or settled, while an out-of-the-money contract expires worthless. Because an option's remaining time is part of its value, contracts lose time value as this date approaches.

Gain

The percentage increase in an option's price from the previous day's close to its current price. A +100% gain means the option's price has doubled since the previous close. High-gain contracts usually reflect significant news or sharp moves in the underlying stock.

Implied Volatility (IV)

The market's expectation of how much the underlying stock will move over the life of the option, derived from the option's current price. Higher IV reflects greater expected movement and translates into more expensive contracts, since sellers demand more premium for greater uncertainty. IV tends to spike ahead of major events such as earnings announcements and decline afterward.

In The Money

A contract that has intrinsic value at the current stock price. A call is in the money when the stock trades above the strike price; a put is in the money when the stock trades below it. For example, a $100 call is in the money with the stock at $105. On the options chain page, in-the-money contracts are clearly highlighted.

Intrinsic Value

The amount of an option's price derived from the current stock price — what the contract would be worth if exercised immediately. For a call option, it's the amount by which the stock price exceeds the strike price; for a put option, the amount by which the stock price is below the strike. For example, if a stock is trading at $110 and you hold a $100 call, that call has $10 of intrinsic value. Contracts that are out of the money have no intrinsic value — their entire price comes from time and the possibility of future movement.

Open

The price at which the contract first traded when the market opened today. Comparing the current price to the open indicates how much the contract has moved during today's trading session.

Open Interest

The total number of contracts that remain open — held by traders and not yet closed, exercised, or expired. Open interest rises when new positions are created and falls when existing positions are closed. Unlike volume, which resets each trading day, open interest accumulates over time, making it a useful measure of sustained trader interest and liquidity at a particular strike price.

Out Of The Money

A contract with no intrinsic value based on the current stock price. A call is out of the money when the stock price is below the strike price, and a put is out of the money when the stock price is above the strike price. These contracts hold value only if the stock moves favorably before expiration.

Price (FMV)

The "Price" column on The Options Report shows the Fair Market Value (FMV) — an algorithmically derived, real-time estimate of what an options contract is currently worth. Unlike a "last traded price," which reflects the most recent actual trade, FMV is a model-based estimate that updates continuously throughout the day and stays current even for contracts that don't trade frequently.

Put Option

A contract that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to sell 100 shares of the underlying stock at a set price — the strike price — on or before the contract's expiration date. The buyer pays a premium (the contract's price) for this right, and that premium is the most they can lose. Traders typically buy puts when they believe a stock's price will decline, or to protect the value of shares they already own, since the contract generally gains value as the stock falls below the strike price. For example, if you buy a $100 put and the stock falls to $90, the contract now carries $10 of intrinsic value per share — $1,000 per contract — and can be sold or exercised for a profit.

Put-Call Ratio

The Put-Call Ratio (PCR) is a widely used indicator of market sentiment, calculated by dividing the total put option volume by the total call option volume. Because puts are often used to position for or hedge against price declines, while calls are typically used to position for price increases, the ratio offers a quick read on whether traders are leaning bearish or bullish. The Options Report interprets the ratio using these ranges: 0.70 and below is Bullish (call volume significantly outweighs put volume, suggesting traders are positioning for prices to rise); 0.71 to 1.00 is Neutral (put and call volume are relatively balanced, indicating no strong directional bias); and above 1.00 is Bearish (put volume outweighs call volume, suggesting traders are positioning for prices to fall or hedging against declines). Keep in mind that the Put-Call Ratio is just one sentiment gauge and is often used as a contrarian indicator — extreme readings can sometimes signal that the market is overly one-sided.

Strike Price

The agreed-upon price at which the option can be exercised. For a call option it's the price at which you can buy the stock; for a put option it's the price at which you can sell it. The strike price is what determines whether a contract is in the money or out of the money.

Theta

A Greek that measures how much value an option loses each day due to the passage of time, known as time decay. A Theta of -0.10 means the option loses roughly $0.10 in value per day, all else being equal. Time decay accelerates as expiration approaches, which is why holding short-dated contracts becomes increasingly costly for buyers.

Ticker

The unique symbol used to identify a stock or ETF on the exchange. For example, NVDA is the ticker for NVIDIA and SPY is the ticker for the S&P 500 ETF. On The Options Report, tickers are always displayed in a purple badge for easy identification.

Volume

The total number of contracts bought and sold during the current trading session. Volume resets at the start of each trading day, making it a measure of today's activity — in contrast to open interest, which tracks positions that remain open over time. High volume at a specific strike signals concentrated trader interest, and heavily traded contracts are generally easier to enter and exit at fair prices.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about using The Options Report.

What is The Options Report? ▼

The Options Report is a free website that shows you the day's top gaining options contracts, the most active contracts by volume, and the contracts with the highest open interest — all in one clean dashboard. Unlike traditional finance platforms that bury options data deep in their interface, we put it right in front of you.

Is this financial advice? ▼

No. The Options Report is an informational website only. Nothing on this website constitutes financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. You should always do your own research and consult with a qualified financial advisor before making any trading decisions.

How often does the data update? ▼

Options data on The Options Report updates every minute throughout the trading day, giving users a current picture of market activity.

Where does the data come from? ▼

Our options data is provided by a third party market data provider that sources it directly from the major options exchanges. While we do our best to ensure accuracy, you should always verify data with your broker before making any trades.

Is the website free to use? ▼

Yes, The Options Report is completely free to use. There are no paywalls, no subscription fees, and no account required. Our goal is to make useful options data accessible to everyone.

What does "in the money" mean? ▼

A contract is "in the money" when it has intrinsic value based on the current stock price. A call is in the money when the stock price is above the strike price. A put is in the money when the stock price is below the strike price. On our options chain page, in-the-money contracts are clearly highlighted with a divider bar showing where the boundary is.

For more detailed definitions check out our Glossary.

How do I read the options chain? ▼

Click any ticker on the main dashboard, or search for a ticker in the top search bar to view its full options chain. The chain is organized by expiration date, with each date in its own collapsible section sorted from soonest to furthest away.

Use the Calls and Puts filter at the top to switch between contract types. In-the-money contracts are clearly highlighted, and each row shows you the strike price, current price, volume, open interest, and Greeks for that specific contract.

What is the difference between volume and open interest? ▼

Volume is the total number of contracts that have traded today. It resets at the start of each trading day.

Open interest is the total number of contracts currently held by traders that have not been closed or exercised yet. Unlike volume, open interest accumulates over time and tells you how many contracts are outstanding.

High volume with low open interest often signals new trader interest. High open interest with lower volume often signals existing positions.

Why do some contracts not show Delta, Theta, or IV values? ▼

Some contracts show a dash ("--") instead of actual Greek values. This is normal and happens for a few reasons: contracts very deep in the money or far out of the money often don't have Greeks calculated because they become less meaningful. Contracts with very low trading activity may also not have Greeks because there isn't enough market data to derive them. You'll see the same thing on other platforms like Webull and Thinkorswim.

Can I trade directly on this website? ▼

No. The Options Report is an informational website only. We do not execute trades. To actually trade options you would need to use a licensed brokerage like Robinhood, Webull, Fidelity, Schwab, or E*TRADE.

Why don't I see every contract on the Top Gainers table? ▼

The Top Gainers table applies a quality filter to keep the data meaningful. Contracts are only included if they have a Price greater than $0 and at least 10 Volume or 10 Open Interest.

This filter exists because tiny illiquid contracts can show extreme percentage gains that don't reflect real market activity. For example, a contract priced at $0.01 yesterday that's worth $0.05 today would show a 400% gain, but with only one or two trades behind it, that number is misleading.

The Most Active and Highest Open Interest tables don't apply this filter because their sort criteria (high volume and high open interest) naturally surface only the most actively traded contracts.

How do I contact the team? ▼
